The Billionaire Who Stole My Heart

Kari called everyone to take their seats, "Help yourselves, guys. Lunch will be ready in no time."

Hannah's family was also in the real estate business, and Ronald's mansion was in a newly developed affluent neighborhood, worth millions.

It was said to be Ronald's personal asset.ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

Clearly, he was loaded.

Everyone else in the studio had brought gifts, cautiously avoiding touching anything out of place, merely chatting and sipping tea in the living room.

At noon.

Lunch officially commenced.

Kari and Ronald's culinary skills were top-notch, earning unanimous praise for the meal they prepared.

After a hearty meal, Hannah and the group lounged in the garden, soaking up the sun.

Kari whipped up a fresh juice for Hannah and handed it to her, "I heard Brittany hasn't been doing well?"

She was in Imperial City, and Brittany was all the way in Craneville. They couldn't really offer much help. Hannah looked troubled, "Yeah."

Pregnant Hannah was advised by Derek to steer clear of these matters, but how could she just stand by? "Take it easy, you know," Kari cautioned.

Hannah replied with a hint of frustration, "I'm tired of hearing that. The whole world keeps telling me I'm not well, but I'm just pregnant."

Ever since she got pregnant, she became the center of attention, with everyone telling her to take care of her health and the baby... She was fed up with hearing it over and over.

Kari gently touched her belly, "Feels like we just met, and now, you're expecting."

"With you and Ronald together, marriage must be on the cards."

The mention made Kari slightly uncomfortable.

"I heard the Malone family disapproves."

Old Mr. Malone not only disapproved of their relationship but also tried setting Ronald up with eligible young ladies. Ronald didn't show up once.

Eventually, Old Mr. Malone somehow managed to make all their business partners young, unmarried women. Ronald simply refused to collaborate.

The old man persisted, relentlessly pushing.

After several rounds of this, Ronald completely cut ties with the old man, who still hadn't given up.

Kari knew about the situation and found it troubling. "Old Mr. Malone saved his life; he can't just cut him off."

Hannah, however, felt Ronald was better than Nathan, "Kari, honestly Ronald's better than Nathan. When the Jarvis family objected, Nathan didn't go to these lengths."

Nathan had once faced opposition from Kari and Mila.

He refused to agree to an arranged marriage.

But he didn't break ties with Mila for

Compared to Nathan, Ronald was willing to give up his heir position for Kari, which made him slightly better in this regard.

Kari hadn't heard Nathan's name in a long time, momentarily lost in thought, "It's all in the past now."

Leaning back in her chair, Hannah added, "I got word Bri and the others are coming back. Don't worry too much."

Kari breathed a sigh of relief.

The group stayed until the late afternoon before saying their goodbyes.

Ronald, having been busy all day, was exhausted. Kari brewed him a cup of tea and brought it over, "Had I known they'd stay this long, I would

've told the nanny not to take the day off."

Previously, Ronald seldom visited this mansion.

The nanny lived there.

Now that they were moving in, Ronald had given the nanny three months' salary to work at the company instead.

"No need, I love it when it's just us," Ronald said, cherishing their private moments together, away from anyone else's intrusion.
