Chapter 44

• It was still like a dream that he was finally married to the one woman who occupied his mind ever since he first met her during his company’s annual boat cruise. As a lucky winner of one of the few tickets given out that period, she seemed like she was making good use of the sea view to relax herself.
• Without knowing her personally, he could tell she was a quiet person. But she wasn’t when he walked up to her. Perhaps it was caused by the effect he had on ladies, he wasn’t sure. But Charles thanked whatever made Isabella not so withdrawn when he came up to her.
