"Mr. Heller, I woke up early this morning and made breakfast for you. Do you want to try it?"

As she was saying that, Emma handed the lunchbox to Toddy. Watching her pretty eyes which were sparkling in merriness, he thought it would be cruel to reject her.

Therefore, he didn't reject her on the spot, but also didn't take the lunchbox from her as he answered calmly, "I need to drive."

She smiled at that. "I'll drive. You can have your breakfast in the passenger seat."

"Did you have your breakfast?"

"I did."

Did she specially make breakfast for me even though she had hers?

Afraid of getting into an awkward situation by being frank, Toddy kept the thought to himself.

"Mr. Heller?" Emma was waiting for his answer.

"Alright." In the end, he decided to accept her offer.

He wasn't pleased that she didn't prepare breakfast for him like usual yesterday.

That day, she did make breakfast for him, but Matthew got lucky and had it.

If Matthew could know what Toddy was thinking, the former would surely feel wronged and exclaim, "I'm merely helping you to eat them instead of letting them go wasted! How could you think so lowly of me!"

They exchanged seats before getting on the road. Emma was the driver while Toddy was having breakfast next to her in the passenger seat.

"It's not convenient to get breakfast when we're moving, so I packed these for you," she explained while having her eyes on the road.

He didn't bother to reply. As long as you are the one who makes them, I'll eat all of them.

However, Toddy wasn't going to tell her that even though he appreciated the food.

He didn't want to give her any hope and continue to pester him.

"Why did Dylan call you too?" Please don't tell me he's doing this for me, Toddy grumbled to himself.

Thinking that he wasn't able to urge her to get down from the car, Emma decided to tell him the truth. "President Coleman told me that Miss Kendall doesn't have many friends. He asked me to go along to offer her companionship, so she won't be lonely."

President Coleman is spoiling Miss Kendall!

Toddy stopped for a beat before muttering, "I shouldn't have asked. Now I'm envious."

Emma chuckled. "Me too. Even though President Coleman has a cold exterior, he's still sensitive and considerate of Miss Kendall."

Too bad he's handicapped. Besides, I hope everything about a certain ability of his is all rumors.

When Toddy noticed Emma was wearing a dress, he asked without a second thought, "We're heading to the horse farm. You can't ride a horse wearing a dress."

She gave him another honest answer. "I don't know how to ride horses. Besides, I don't need to ride one, because I'm there to accompany Miss Kendall. I feel more comfortable in the dress."

Toddy let her reply slip without answering her. I'm good at horse riding, so I can teach you if you're interested.

Once again, he didn't speak his mind. After all, he wasn't interested in developing a relationship with her.

At that moment, Emma's cell phone rang and broke the silence.

She had left her handbag on the passenger seat, where Toddy was sitting right now.

"Mr. Heller, can you help me to answer the call?" She asked for his help as she needed to focus on the road.

Finding her cell phone in the bag, he took it out and saw a bunch of numbers on the phone screen instead of a caller ID. "It's an unknown number."

"Answer it. I wonder who it is."

After a moment of hesitation, he picked up the call.

"Hello, may I speak to Miss Finley?"

"She's driving and can't come to the phone right now. May I know who you are?"

"Good morning, we're calling from Florina Florist. A customer has ordered a rose bouquet from us for Miss Finley. We've sent the flower to her place, may I know where we should leave the flowers?"

Toddy immediately turned upset with the statements as Emma had become quite the topic of discussion among the company when she received two bouquets of roses yesterday. He didn't expect her to receive more of them the following day.

What kind of b*stard is the guy if he's pursuing Emma but doesn't dare reveal his identity? Is he being sincere? If so, why did he ask the workers from the flower shop to send Emma the flowers instead of doing it by himself?

"Tell them to leave the flowers in the guardhouse and ask the security guard to sign as proof of delivery. I'll get the flowers once I get home." He repeated her words to the caller.

The worker asked again, "Does the same apply to the flowers we're sending this evening?"

Toddy was taken aback. "There's more?"

"Yes, the customer ordered two bouquets with nine hundred and ninety-nine roses each and every day. We send each of them to Miss Finley in the morning and evening respectively."

"Yes, leaving them in the guard house will be alright," Emma replied as she continued driving.
