The Billionaire Who Stole My Heart

Chapter 1272

Ronald had been waiting for those words. With a swift move, he wrapped his arms around her, his large hands gripping her waist tightly. "Kari, you said it yourself, you can't leave me." Kari nestled into his embrace, the scent of his aftershave - crisp and comforting - filling her senses. She closed her eyes and hummed in agreement.

Nathan's arrival didn't stir any trouble, and the couple spent three blissful days at the Spring Retreat.

For Kari, it was a much-needed break, and she enjoyed every moment of it.

As long as she was happy, Ronald was too.

On their last day, Ronald heard about an exceptional restaurant and decided to take Kari there.

Tucked away in a quieter part of town, the place was bustling with activity.

After waiting for over an hour, they finally got a table.

The hunger made Kari's vision blur, and without any concern for manners, she dived into the meal.

The food was delicious, carrying a unique flavor that seemed to encapsulate the spirit of H city.

Kari was more than satisfied, patting her full belly, she complimented, "Delicious."

Noticing the dishes she particularly enjoyed, Ronald snuck off to the restroom to find the owner and purchase the recipes, planning to recreate them for Kari back in Imperial City. The restaurant quickly emptied out.

By the time Ronald returned, they were among the last few customers.

As the evening sky darkened, they left the remote restaurant location, their car parked in a nearby lot due to the inaccessible roads.

Kari, still savoring the taste, exclaimed, "So good."
