With a mischievous chuckle, Huntley reached for a slice of watermelon from the spread before them.
“Hold on, I'm not done yet. | proposed to Daniela that if she doesn’t find someone suitable within the next
month, she might as well take a chance on me. It's not unusual these days for love to blossom after getting
married.”
Cedric scoffed, finding the idea ludicrous.

Daniela was testing the medical capabilities of the robot.
Just as she was monitoring its heart rate and blood pressure metrics, Cedric’s sudden knock echoed through the
softly lit room. He appeared, unusually drenched in sweat.
“What's got you looking like you've run a marathon?” Daniela inquired, noticing his sweaty brow and extending a
paper towel his way.
Cedric looked at Daniela.

endured when she had married Alexander. It was almost too much to bear.

“Daniela, marry me,” he blurted out.

“You...” Daniela paused, her words trailing off.
