Eaglioncile Hotel.

River was already seated at the table in the private room Romina had reserved. Next to him on the chair was a bouquet of flowers he had bought from a nearby shop.

It wasn't anything fancy-just a simple bouquet-but he planned to give it to his blind date later to show Romina that he was taking this date seriously.

He'd go buy another bouquet later in the afternoon-one especially for Romina. No matter what sacrifices he might have to make, he knew he had to start by chasing his wife first. And while pursuing her, he'd continue leading Yantail's transformation. If it succeeded, maybe he'd get both the career and the woman he loved.

After all, neither he nor Romina was young anymore.

He was 31, she was 29. By their elders' standards, they were already considered late to marry.
