Dare To Love 49. Double Date
When the doorbell echoed through the house, Lea jumped, almost running outside. She was afraid of being intercepted by Mrs. Anna or her father. Instead of allowing them to say or do things that could be disadvantageous later, she quickly took Daniel and left. But it seemed she was too late. Her parents, as if intentionally, were already waiting in the living room. Oh no! Lea grumbled in frustration. How could they do this? Daniel, chatting with Lea's parents, was immediately captivated when he caught sight of the girl. Her dress, resulting from her friend's insistence at the boutique that morning, was perfect for his beloved. She looked flawless tonight in Daniel's eyes. Ah, if this is something worth fighting for, he thought. Lost in the enchanting daydream for a moment, Daniel didn't respond when Mr. Adam asked him questions. The middle-aged man had to repeat calling his name, "Daniel? So, how is it?" Surprised, Daniel quickly fumbled, "Uh-umm... what, sir? Sorry, I was mesmerize
Dare To Love 50. A Statement
Amanda greeted Lea and Daniel with enthusiasm. She even gave them a thumbs-up. Amanda was very pleased with Lea's appearance. Standing next to Daniel, wearing a short-sleeved dark grey shirt with cream-coloured pants, they looked very harmonious as a couple."Sit here. What would you like to order?" Amanda said when Lea had sat next to her. Daniel sat beside her on the other side. The table in the restaurant was a large, round one covered with a clean white tablecloth draped down.On the table, a small pot of white and pink roses was arranged in the middle, followed by a crystal container with aromatherapy candles. There were also two menus, one of which Lea was already holding. Lea mentioned a signature dessert on the restaurant's menu and an iced cappuccino, which puzzled the other three."Why just dessert, dear?" Daniel teased, earning a sharp look from Lea. Daniel laughed at Lea's expression while Amanda playfully teased both of them."Yeah, what about eating?" Amanda took the men
Dare To Love 51. On Time Is A Must
"Yes!" Daniel's exaggerated shout drew the attention of other diners toward their table. Lea immediately blushed, unsure of how to respond. A mix of awkwardness, shyness, and various other feelings overwhelmed her. "Wow, a couple now, huh?" Amanda began to cheer happily for the achievement of the two people she cherished. Daniel was her beloved cousin, and they had always been close since childhood. Despite his rough demeanor towards his other male friends, with Amanda, he became a protective brother who always gave in. That's why Amanda was so supportive of Lea being together with Daniel. And now, as her efforts had yielded significant results, she was genuinely happy. Alvin began to feel a bit annoyed by his girlfriend's indifference towards him tonight. But he hesitated to protest because they rarely had the opportunity to gather like this. Hopefully, Lea and Daniel's matter will be resolved quickly so that Amanda won't be bothered by their affairs. "Thank you so much, dear." Wi
Dare To Love 52. Freddie's Invitation
"Hey, sis. Make sure to come to Freddie's birthday tomorrow," Grace said, tossing the invitation onto the dressing table next to her brother's bed. "Huh? When?" Lea asked in surprise. She had yet to hear about Freddie's birthday party. Usually, Grace would announce it days in advance. "It's tomorrow, on Saturday," Grace replied, lounging on Lea's empty bed. Her brother was busy searching for something in the wardrobe. "I thought it was tomorrow. You just startled me there." "Oh, and make sure to bring Daniel with you!" Grace added slyly. "Well, I'll ask him if he can make it," Lea said, considering whether to go with just Grace or bring Daniel along. She was still determining whether to bring Daniel everywhere in her social circles, especially to Freddie's party. There might be Shane! "Oh, is it a big party? Will Shane be there?" Lea blurted out inadvertently. "He'll probably come, sis. It's nice, you know, having a boyfriend to show off. You and Daniel can match your outfits, a
Dare To Love 53. Threats
Lea asked her friends if they wanted a treat after work. Bella eagerly replied that she did, and Adelle quickly chimed in agreement.Erick declined, citing a conflicting event that afternoon. He didn't want to see Lea and her partner happy while he was still struggling to accept Lea's new relationship status.Bella insisted that Erick come along, asking, 'Are you sure you don't want to?' She knew exactly what was on his mind. She wished for Erick to move on from Lea once he saw her happy with her boyfriend. Then, he could realize that other girls around him had feelings for him.Erick replied indifferently, 'No, I have business at home.' He then pretended to be busy at his desk, immersed in the laptop in front of him while flipping through the pages of the report book next to him.'Let it go, Bella. It's just the two of us. The important thing is that I've paid it off. Erick doesn't want to do it. There will be no more treats after this. The loss will be borne by yourself,' Lea final
Dare To Love 54. Gift Hunting
After eating, Bella and Adelle went home first using an online taxi. Daniel offered to take them home, but they declined firmly because they were too reluctant to be inconvenienced again."What if they ask for a ride home?" asked Lea, curious about Daniel's small talk style, which was too friendly for her."Yes, it's okay, I'll take you all home. It's the same as you, it's okay for me to be a driver, too." Daniel's answer, which had a flirtatious tone, made Lea exhale harshly.She could have liked it for a long time if Daniel had always acted that cute to her."So, are we just going straight home, or are we going to the mall to look for a gift for Grace's boyfriend?""Freddie.""Ah, yes, Freddie. Let's buy it right away, shall we? Are you tired tomorrow?" Daniel asked Lea, who was resting her back on the seat. Her voice seemed a little worried."Yes, a little tired. Let's just go home first, shall we? I haven't thought about what to buy yet. If I don't think about it first, I'll get c
Dare To Love 55. Daniel's House
Lea was taken by surprise when she found herself at Daniel's house. She had yet to pay attention to the road while chatting with Daniel and exchanging messages with Adelle and Bella.Suddenly, she was in the driveway of a large and luxurious house with a simple minimalist style. Lea was gaping and slightly annoyed because Daniel didn't ask permission before taking her there. Oh no! She was still in her work attire, and her appearance must be dishevelled as she hadn't freshened up after a long day."Why here, Tur?" she complained, irritated.Daniel just shrugged with a grin, "Sorry, you were quiet when I didn't turn into your street earlier, so I just continued to my place.""Ugh, I wasn't paying attention to the road. At least you could've told me if we were heading here. I'm embarrassed; my appearance is probably a mess, and I even smell from a whole day at work," Lea expressed her concern about how Daniel's parents might react."Haha, you're still beautiful and smell nice, don't wor
Dare To Love 56. Serious Conversation
"Sorry, Auntie. I was the one who forced Lea to come to the house first. Mom told me to invite her home for dinner. That's why we got home so late." Daniel faced Mrs. Anna, who had greeted the two young people on the terrace with Grace."Oh, well then. But Lea should call me first if she has any other plans. That way, I won't have to worry," Mrs. Anna replied, neutralizing her voice as best she could so as not to sound angry."Yes, Mom. I'm sorry, I thought you'd be okay with me going with Daniel. Don't you trust him?" Lea replied indifferently.Mrs. Anna looked at her eldest daughter with a scolding look."Still, you have to stay in touch. What's so hard about a short chat?""Yeah. Sorry...""It's a good thing your daddy isn't home yet. It would have been a nuisance for me to nag him if he had been." Mrs Anna again regretted Lea's attitude, which often underestimated her parents' anxiety when their daughter came home late."I am wrong, Aunt. I apologize again," Daniel said, mediating
