Chapter 2381
Raelynn felt very sorry for him. "Why are you so busy?"
Kenneth replied, "Yes! My father wanted to retire when I was 18 years old, but I managed to hang on until now. He just wanted to travel around the world with my mother. My grandfather and grandmother also went on trips. They're already so old, yet they want to travel. We worry about them all the time."
"But the two elders didn't take it to heart at all. This time, they may not come back until winter."
Raelynn smiled and remarked, "It must be warm at home."
Clara said that the Alwynn family was different from other wealthy families. The Alwynn family members were warm and easy to get along with.
"Yes!" Kenneth's eyes were filled with happiness.
Raelynn looked at him, and her watery eyes were full of smiles. "Go ahead. I'll go back by myself later. You don't have to prepare dinner for me. I'll go home to eat." She had to do the live broadcast that night. If she didn't have to do the live broadcast, she could have a rest here.
However, this was Kenneth's office after all. It was inappropriate for her to rest here.
There would be gossip. If she really married him, she could stay here openly.
Only then did Kenneth get up reluctantly. The feeling of not wanting to leave her intensified.
Kenneth moved his body a little and sat back down abruptly. He hugged Raelynn tightly.
She was stunned for a moment and looked at him nervously and shyly.
His dark eyes were overflowing with emotions. His strong emotions were like rolling lava, and they were filled with infinite tenderness and dominance. However, they made her feel clean and pure. They were also a signal to her that she was the only one in his eyes.
Raelynn loved Kenneth being like this.
"What... What are you doing?" Raelynn asked cautiously. She was more on guard than warm. She didn't want to do it again. If she did, she really wouldn't have to go home.
Kenneth chuckled and said, "Nothing. I want my parents to come back early. I want to go to your house to propose marriage soon. I want to marry you as soon as possible."
Raelynn saw the clear reflection of her appearance in his dark eyes, and he seemed to be serious and determined.
She was also screaming in her heart. She wanted to marry this man.
She smiled. "Okay, I'll wait for you to marry me."
She had feelings for him and liked him, so she didn't want to be pretentious.
Even if she was wrong, it would be for a lifetime.
"Little girl, you really are a devil." Kenneth looked at her bright and innocent smile, and his eyes shone.
......
By the time Kenneth sent Raelynn back and arrived at the restaurant in River City, it had been almost two hours since the appointed time.
The people in the room stared at each other, and their expressions weren't very good.
That was especially the case for Austin. He had worked all night the night before and was dragged here after sleeping for only a few hours. He waited anxiously and became a little angry.
"When will Seven come? If he's not coming, I'm going back to sleep." Austin and Isla were not familiar with each other, but they had heard of each other's names.
Isla glanced at him and pursed her lips without saying anything.
Nathaniel was just about to say, "Call and ask" when he saw Kenneth push the door open and come in.
"Sorry, I'm late." Kenneth walked in calmly. His tall figure and domineering aura brought everyone to their senses.
Carson was calmer. If Kenneth only appeared at this time, there must have been something very important he had to deal with.
When Isla saw Kenneth, her dim eyes suddenly lit up.
"Kenny, you're finally here." She got up and walked towards Kenneth.
No one knew how upset she was earlier. If Kenneth hadn't come, she would have felt bored during the dinner.
Kenneth's voice was cold. "Sit down. Let's eat first."
Then, he walked to Lucian and sat down beside him.
Isla's eyes darkened as she returned to her seat and sat down.
Nathaniel narrowed his eyes and sized up Kenneth. He felt that Seven's expression was familiar.
"Seven, do you already have someone you like?"
As soon as Nathaniel finished speaking, Isla's nerves instantly tensed up, and she looked at Kenneth with a hurt expression.
Kenneth looked at him curiously. Was it so obvious that Nathaniel could see it at the first glance when he sat down?
He replied, "Why do you ask?"
Nathaniel smiled and remarked, "I always feel that your expression is a little familiar."
Isla's gaze completely fell on Kenneth's handsome face, and she couldn't shift her gaze away from him at all. He had stolen all of her attention.
He seemed to be a little different that day. His whole body was filled with faint joy, dazzling and noble. Even the corners of his mouth had a faint arc. Was it because he saw her?
Kenneth had always been shy, so he didn't know how to talk to a girl.
He must have liked her and was too embarrassed to say it out loud.
"Kenny, we've been waiting for you for two hours. We're very hungry now. Let's order something to eat first." Isla's tone was gentle, not showing a trace of complaint because she had waited for two hours.
Carson looked at Isla, who looked completely different from before, and frowned slightly.
Austin also spoke up, "Kenny, I've already been hungry for so long. Try to understand my mood. Hurry up and order something delicious to comfort my stomach."
Kenneth smiled and said, "If you're hungry, you should have eaten first. You didn't have to wait for me to come over."
Kenneth turned around and pressed the bell. Soon, all the dishes were served.
They were all traditional dishes from the restaurant, which could be regarded as a full banquet. There were all kinds of dishes ranging from chicken and duck to fish and seafood.
Nathaniel looked at everything and praised with a smile, "Kenny, did you order so many traditional dishes because of Isla's arrival? Every dish is special. I may gain two pounds tonight."
Kenneth nodded lightly. "It's Isla's first time in River City. If you like it, eat up."
Isla nodded happily. Kenny really liked her. He had prepared everything so carefully.
What she didn't know was that Kenneth hadn't specially prepared anything.
Other than his family and a few good friends, he would not spend time on anyone else.
"Kenny, eat this fish. It's delicious." Isla picked up a piece of fish with her cutlery and was about to place it on Kenneth's plate when she was stopped by Carson.
Others might not know, but he knew that Kenneth never ate the dishes that someone else had touched.
To prevent any embarrassment, he had to sacrifice himself.
Compared to the other two friends, he and Kenneth had lived in the same dormitory when they were in primary school, so Carson knew his temper well.
Isla looked at him with some displeasure. Why did Carson think so highly of himself? She didn't like him. Why did he have to eat the dishes that she had picked up?
Carson smiled and said, "Miss Alden, let's do it ourselves. Kenny may not like whatever you like."
Isla was stunned and glanced at the expressionless Kenneth. He ate very light food, and the fish she picked up seemed very spicy. There were chopped peppers on it, and the dish was sour and spicy, very delicious.
However, she, who was smart, understood it instantly.
Kenneth didn't like others to serve him food.
"Okay, thank you!" Isla smiled gratefully at Carson.
However, at that moment, Kenneth's phone suddenly rang.
