“Come, let me show you how it works. The owner picked up the mug and walked over to the water dispenser, filling it with hot water.
As the mug warmed up, it began to change, shedding its black coating and gradually revealing a photo, Since it was a model mug, the photo imprinted on it was that of the shop owner. Once all the black disappeared, the mug lit up, becoming beautiful and vivid.
“Isn’t it pretty the owner said with a smile. Moreover, this cup u be used daily, representing you being with him day and night. Isn’t that meaningful?”
Seraphina reflected on the owner’s words and felt moved by the symbolism of constant companionship. “Do we need his “photo“” she asked.
Your photo, his photo, or a picture of you two would work. But I think imprinting your couple’s photo or just your own is the best idea. This way, every time he drinks from it, he can see your happy moments together or your beautiful face, and he will surely be happy
Seraphina fell silent for a moment because there were no photos of them together. She thought, ‘If I imprint my photo and someone else sens it, will it cause him trouble! After all, our relationship cannot be openly displayed in public
So, Seraphina said. Just imprint his photo, then.”
The owner nodded. “Sure, so please provide me with the photo
“How long will it take?” Seraphina asked. “Can I get the cup today
“Of course, it only takes half an hour.”
“Okay, just wait for me Seraphina stepped outside and called Clarence. She didn’t have a photo of him and needed him to provide one. Seraphina suddenly realized how timid she was. She didn’t even have the courage to take a photo of him
In the conference room, silence prevailed as the executives were presenting their reports. Clarence rested his chin on his hand, his face cold, and his gaze focused. Suddenly, his phone vibrated on the table, but he didn’t even glance at it. The meeting was important, and Clarence didn’t want to answer an irrelevant call at that moment.
Randy, who was taking minutes, prepared to hang up the call for Clarence but noticed it was “Sera” calling. His finger hovered over the hang–up button, frozen. Randy glanced at Clarence.
Randy didn’t know whether to hang up Seraphina’s call or if he should inform Clarence to answer it. He feared that he would be scolded for either hanging up or answering without permission. So, he could only silently signal to Clarence
Noticing Randy looking at him, Clarence turned lais gaze toward Randy, questioning with his eyes, “Don’t you know this is a
critical moment?”
Randy pointed at the phone screen. It was then that Clarence saw it. When he saw Sera’s name, a flicker of surprise crossed Clarence a cold expression, which was immediately replaced by warmth
Seraphina rarely called him, especially during his working hours: Hence, this call took Clarence by surprise and brought him joy
He had been leaning back in his chair but quickly sat up straight swiftly picking up the phone and holding it to his ear while signaling the executive who was giving the report to pause. The executive immediately fell silent
“Hello, Clarence answered the call. Everyone in the conference on looked up at him, including Handy, who showed a hint of surprise. Kandy thought, Clarener must tralize how gentle he sounded just now when he sand hello

“Are you busy?” Seraphina asked.
“No,” Clarence replied without a moment’s hesitation
Randy glanced at the dense notes on his laptop about the meeting and thought. So this is what it means to be “not busy” Hearing Clarence’s response, Seraphina finally relaxed a bit. She was worried that calling hirn during work hours would disrupt him, but the need for the photo was urgent, so she had to mister the courage. “Well, I want to discuss something with you
“Sure, go ahead, Clarence replied.
“Could you send me one of your photos, preferably a handsome one!” Seraphina felt her words wrong and quickly added. “Of course, all your photos must be handsome, so just send me anyone.”
Clarence looked a bit confused, wanting to ask for details, but he noticed dozens of eyes in the conference room staring at him. He then realized he was taking a call in front of everyone. So, he stood up and left the conference room with strides.
Everyone speculated. Who could make the workaholic Clarence not only interrupt the meeting but also step out to take a call? It must be a stunning fairy on the other end
Clarence casually closed the conference room door, confirming no one was in the hallway before he lowered his voice and
asked. “Did you miss me
Seraphina did miss him, but she couldn’t bring herself to say it. She could only defend. “I need the photo for an Clarence felt helpless. It was tough to hear a sweet word from Seraphina. “Okay, I’ll take one right away.”
“Aren’t you going to ask what it’s for?”
Clarence chuckled, “It’s up to you.”
Seraphina felt warmth in her heart. Clarence’s simple reply was a strong sign of trust in her.
After hanging up, Clarence opened the camera and snapped a quick shot. However, when he was about to send it to Seraphina, he canceled it. He reopened the camera and took several more shots, each looking handsome. He thought, ‘Let that girl enjoy
Clarence opened WhatsApp and sent all those photos in one go.
Seraphina stared at the photos and paused, thinking, ‘Come on, I just wanted one! He sent over ten, and each one looked exceptionally handsome. How am I supposed to choose?
Suddenly Seraphina had an idea. She would create a collage using a nine–square grid.
The next evening. Clarence’s private jet arrived in Angoria. The group exited through the VIP passage.
A car was parked at the entrance of the VIP passage, with the driver in a neatly pressed uniform waiting by the car door. Upon seeing Clarence, he immediately opened the rear door for him. Just as Clarence was about to get in, a gentle voice came from belund him. “Clarry!”
Seraphina was scrolling through Twitter in the villa when she saw a post from Jennifer, showcasing a picture of an airplane accompanied by the caption Tune to fly again. I feel like I’m becoming an air traveler i
Seraphina provately messaged Jeunder (Another business trip!)
