Our Love Story: Hard to Guard Against the Sudden Love Strike-Chapter 298 - 294: Eighteen This Year

Simon Forrester said this, so Sienna Thornton naturally asked, "Who?"

"Dean Thorne." Simon Forrester casually asked, "What do you think of him?"

At first, hearing that name, Sienna Thornton was stunned. After a moment, her eyes seemed to flicker with a weak spark, but it quickly disappeared in the depths of her gaze.

She shrugged, the corner of her lips curled a bit, and she smiled rather helplessly, "He has shown kindness to me, so to me, he’s a good person. But he has some views that, with my current age and experience, I can’t agree with for the time being."

"He’s a prominent figure in your field. Shouldn’t you younger folks listen and follow his advice and opinions?"

"There are those who listen and follow, but there are also many like me who pursue truth and justice."

Simon Forrester laughed, "Pursuing truth and justice? Isn’t that just being—contrary?"

Sienna Thornton rolled her eyes at him in annoyance, picked up a napkin to wipe her mouth, "You eat slowly, I’ll go cut some fruit to eat later." With that, she got up and went to the kitchen.

Simon Forrester is particular about his diet, insisting on eating a certain amount of fruits and vegetables, drinking a certain amount of water every day, and even having a glass of raw milk in the morning and evening.

After living with him for a long time, Sienna Thornton’s habits were slowly influenced by him. Now, she rarely eats junk food and pays a lot of attention to water and vitamin intake.

It was June at the time, and there were only a few varieties of seasonal fruits.

Sienna Thornton washed the cutting board and fruit knife specifically used for cutting fruit, turned to the fridge, and took out half a watermelon. She peeled it and began to cut it into pieces.

She used to just cut the watermelon in half and munch on the slices. Since living with Simon Forrester, she’s been cutting it for him in the same way.

As a result, Simon Forrester disliked this method, saying it was not elegant and would get watermelon juice all over his hands and cheeks. He insisted that she cut it into pieces, plate it, and pair it with a fork.

As everyone knows, due to the round shape of a watermelon, it’s quite troublesome to cut it into pieces without wasting the edges.

Initially, Sienna Thornton was quite unwilling, calling him "princess sickness," but later she couldn’t resist their deep affection for each other. Not only was she willing to cut it into pieces, but she also bought a tool to cut out little hearts.

Since then, the watermelon that Princess Forrester eats is no longer called a watermelon; they’re a series of fiery red hearts.

.

After cutting the watermelon, Sienna Thornton peeled some "Concubine’s Laugh" lychees and plated them together.

Watermelon is cold, lychee is warm, and eating them together just right balances them out.

She used to be indifferent about the combination of foods and fruits and vegetables, always thinking that having high-quality meat, eggs, fish, and vitamins was enough. However, after living with Simon Forrester for a long time and because he is particular, she also learned quite a bit about nutritional combinations.

When she brought the fruit out, Simon Forrester had just finished eating and was tidying up the dishes on the table. She took the fruit to the living room and joined in cleaning up.

Both of them tidied up the dining room and kitchen together. Sienna Thornton went to take a shower, while Simon Forrester dealt with some work in the study, then went in for a shower after Sienna finished.

After he had finished showering and came out, Sienna had just dried her hair, and they snuggled intimately on the sofa.

Simon Forrester leaned on the sofa watching financial news, while Sienna Thornton rested her head on his lap, reading a Kindle. Every so often, she’d lift her face, open her mouth, and catch the fruit he brought to her lips with a fork. Occasionally, she’d hear some financial news she was interested in and chat with him for a while.

Sienna Thornton is different from most girls. Though she dabbles in makeup and skincare, dress and shopping, she only spends a little time on these areas, never getting obsessed. She also isn’t much of a fan of celebrities and doesn’t know much about the entertainment industry, but she keeps up with current affairs and financial news every day.

That might have something to do with her work.

Thus, in terms of personal interests, she seems somewhat masculine but also finds a lot of common ground with Simon Forrester.

There used to be a saying circulating online — if it weren’t for biological needs and reproduction, men would prefer to hang out with men.

If Simon Forrester thinks this way too, then Sienna Thornton is indeed a creature that satisfies his biological and dependent needs and can also spark intellectual engagement with him as a perfectly dual-gendered being.

It truly confirms that saying — love starts with attraction, gets stuck on talent, and stays true to character.

.

On Monday, Sienna Thornton discussed with her partners, and everyone agreed to take on Sylvia Langley’s divorce case.

In fact, since the establishment of their firm, they’ve never turned down any case. They wanted more cases, so how could they refuse any?

When Sienna Thornton mentioned it to Simon Forrester, Simon Forrester asked how she planned to proceed. She said that until Zane Forrester and his wife cooled down, they would temporarily stall. If, after some time, Sylvia Langley still insists on divorcing, then they would have to go to the United States and file with the American court for an investigation and division of Zane Forrester’s personal assets.
