In a glasshouse, Mya was about to make tea. Claire boiled swater and prepared the tea set. Subconsciously, she peeked out the window.
Then she saw Rowan and his female friend working tacitly. She asked, "He's got a girlfriend so soon. Will he get married suddenly as well?" "What's wrong, Claire?" Mya darted at her. "You pay a lot of attention to the talented doctor." "Not really." Claire chuckled, "I never want to marry.

After the call ended, she asked half-jokingly, "Do you need a personal assistant, Rowan?" "No, thanks," Rowan answered without hesitation.
Daphne was shocked, staring at his charming face. "Why not? Don't you want a helping hand? It can save you much effort and time." "I prefer peace," Rowan drawled.
Daphne was taken aback and buttoned her lip. She put on the gloves again to prepare the skewers.
In the glasshouse, Mya asked curiously, "Have you ever fallen in love, Claire?" Claire asked, "What do you think love is? What's your standard?" "Pardon me?" Mya didn't follow her.
Claire continued, "Is love a confession? Ensuring the relationship? Holding hands? Kissing? Having sex? Or a skip of the heartbeat? What do you think love is?" "Well... Well... Can't they represent love?" Mya asked, "Those are what the lovebirds do. Everything you mentioned will happen." "I disagree." Claire peeked out the window with a smile. "In my opinion, when your heart skips a beat and thumps, it means real love. Others are just the deals between two adults for what they demand."
