Love You Can’t Say

Hearing the movement in the bedroom, Nanny Daisy hurried upstairs. She brought some food, looked at me, and said, “Finally, you are awake. Are you hungry? Mr. George called and said there was a delay in his return. But he knows that you were asleep, so he asked me to prepare some food for you. So you can have something to eat when you wake up.”

I slept for a few hours, so I started to feel a bit better. I looked at the sky outside, it was already dark, and the clock on the wall already pointed at one in the morning.

I just woke up, so I didn’t have the appetite to eat yet. I looked at Nanny Daisy and said, “Daisy, put it down here first, I’ll finish it later. It’s getting late, you should get some rest.”

Nanny Daisy was an aged lady, so she felt a little sleepy this time of the night. But she did remind me to remember to eat before she went downstairs.

I was sitting on the bed, feeling a lot better – Then I couldn’t help but regret it. I slept for such a long time, even it was nighttime now, it would be impossible to continue sleeping.

It meant that it would be another night of staying up for me.

The phone rang, and it was Dennis.

I picked up the phone, my voice softened a bit, “I just woke up.”

“I know!” His voice was hoarse, but it sounded particularly nice. “Don’t forget to eat something, okay? Take it easy if you can’t sleep. I am here to keep you company and chat with you all night.”

I nodded, “Sounds great!”

“I may stay here for a few more days in Country M. Don’t forget to eat well at home. And don’t stay up late, okay? If you’d like, you can ask Alex to bring Clarie Bear over to keep you company.”

“Okay!”

“Uncle Link and Leo may not be in Newton Town these days. If you need anything, give Luis a call Luis.”

“Okay.”

Dennis, “…”

I wasn’t very chatty usually. At that moment, Dennis suddenly went silent, and I couldn’t find anything to talk about for a while.

After a full half-minute of silence, I thought about it and then said, “Try to be home early if possible.”

There was silence on the other end of the phone. It had been a while before Dennis spoke again, with a low voice, “Okay!”

There was nothing much to talk about over the phone anyway – I looked at the phone and was about to hang up.

I didn’t expect the other side to suddenly say, “Don’t forget to think of me!”

I…

For a while, my heart was warmed. It seemed that such warmth was filling the whole heart.

“I will miss you!”

I spoke and my voice subconsciously softened a bit.

After hanging up the phone, I couldn’t fall asleep, so I went to the study room. It was another sleepless night. But I had slept a few hours during the day, so it felt fine to even stay overnight.

Nanny Daisy was a meticulous caregiver. She came to the villa early and made breakfast.

Seeing me go downstairs, with my clothes changed and my hair well done, she said after a brief hesitation, “Are you going out in a while?”

I nodded, “I have to go meet someone in a bit.”

“Do you need me to go with you?” She seemed worried about me. “The dark circles under your eyes are getting worse. You didn’t go back to sleep after you woke up in the middle of the night, did you?”

I answered her with an “Mhm.”, took a few bites of the breakfast, and then headed out.Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.

I wasn’t planning to go out at first. But then Folly Lewis sent me a message saying that she had arrived in Newton Town and that since we were already friends, I should go and treat her with hospitality.

With her having said all that, I didn’t seem to have any reason to refuse her – So I agreed to meet her.

Before going out, I looked around in the garage and found that several low-key cars were sent for maintenance, and several cars that were just returned from maintenance were too ostentatious.

After hesitating for a while, I drove a Dennis’s black Maybach, which looked rather ordinary and was low-key.

Maybe because I was not used to driving this car, so I was extra cautious and drove much slower all the way.

When I got to our meeting place, Folly had already arrived.

Seeing me, she greeted me, waving.

Folly Lewis was a real socialite and aristocrat, with a top-notch appearance and body figure, and her family background was wealthy without a doubt.

She was one or two years older than me, unmarried, and a successful queen bee.

Smart, decisive, and career-oriented.

Seeing me seated down, Folly signaled the waiter to ask him to come over, then she looked at me and asked, “What do you have in mind?”

This was a French restaurant. I shrugged, looked back at her, and said, “I’ve never been here before. Surprise me!”

She raised her eyebrows and said directly without hesitation, “Salmon custard, oyster fish soup, pan-fried lobster meat, French fish rolls, and an orange French toast.” After a pause, she pursed her lips, “These are all, for now, thank you!”

The waiter walked away. She looked at me with a calm face, “The dark circles under your eyes look really bad. What happened recently?”

“Nothing special!” I said. After a pause, I continued, “Are you coming to Newton Town for business?”

She shook her head, “Not at all. I am just enjoying the annual vacation. I thought about going abroad first, but it isn’t that much fun – After all, I’ve been to most places already. So here I am, meeting with my dear friend and catching up with her life.”

I raised my eyebrows, “Are you sure?”

She nodded, “Of course, what else would it be? There are only three things that matter in my life, my parents, my friends, and making money.”

I…

So, that was her definition of the winner in life.

She was dressed extremely elegantly. She looked at me and said, “You have the most boring life among the friends I have ever met.”

Well, she spoke rather straightforwardly too.

I gave her a forced awkward smile, without saying anything.

Seeing me smile, she said, “Both the George family’s and the Kennedy family’s properties are enough for you to settle down and enjoy life. But I’m curious, why do you plan your life so badly that you’ve put all of your energy into your love life and hatred? Don’t you think it’s too boring?”

I was stunned for a moment, then looked up at her. At that moment, the waiter served a portion of French fish rolls – Folly ended the conversation, and said immediately, “Try it!”

I tasted it and it was delicious. One of the reasons why French cuisine was famous around the world had been that it used a wide variety of ingredients, and the dishes were delicate and delicate.

“What do you think?” She raised her eyebrows, out of curiosity.

I somehow was reminded of the way I had been like when I just graduated from college. At that time, I was not rich. But Diana and I would dress up beautifully, and then traveled all over Newton Town on weekends and even went to other cities.

We would taste the best food and enjoyed the most beautiful scenery. At that time, I thought, when I had money, I would for sure visit all the cities in the world and enjoy every bit of each city.

“It’s juicy and flavorful!” I said. I felt very relaxed and delighted.

The waiter served a sorbet. Folly raised her eyebrows and smiled, “Try this one!”

I took a sip. Folly laughed, “French cuisine is mainly a noble experience. Usually, after we have the first main course, the waiter will serve a sorbet. These sorbets are made with juice and champagne, in addition to the refreshing taste, it also increases your appetite for the next course.”

Indeed, as she said, the taste was really good, and it was appetizing.

I looked at her, smiled, and felt a lot more relaxed, “If you just wanted to introduce the characteristics of French food to me, you wouldn’t have come this long way here.”

She shrugged and tutted, “Clara, not everyone came to you with a complicated purpose. Sometimes, it is just as simple as that I would love to see you, so here I am having a meal with you.”
