The Soft-Hearted Wife of Mr. Big Shot-Chapter 178: Giving Him Flowers
Holly returned to Leo Grant’s company holding a large bouquet of roses, and all the employees she passed were stunned for a moment.
Their first thought was, who sent Holly these roses? Holly actually accepted them and even brought them into the office—what’s going on?
Holly, holding the large bouquet, knocked on Leo Grant’s office door. Leo was completely taken aback, staring at Holly in disbelief.
"Who sent these to you?"
Leo’s tone was a bit cold, and he looked rather displeased.
The little girl had just left for a moment and received such a large bouquet of roses; she must be incredibly popular.
He was feeling a bit jealous. The little girl accepted them, and he had never sent her roses before.
"No, it’s not like that."
Holly blinked gently, her eyes filled with joy.
"Brother, they’re for you. I bought them for you."
Holly stuffed the large bouquet of roses into Leo Grant’s arms, blinking her eyes as she spoke.
It was a surprise gift for Leo.
For me?
Leo’s expression quickly changed. He looked at Holly in disbelief, his eyes filled with complex emotions.
The little girl gave him roses???
"Surprised? Unexpected?"
Holly beamed widely, looking at Leo with a face full of happiness.
She had anticipated this exact expression from Leo at this moment.
"Quite... unexpected."
Leo composed himself for a moment before calming down.
The little girl really brought him such a large bouquet of roses; it was quite surprising.
There’s no gender boundary when it comes to giving flowers, but generally, it’s the guys who give flowers to the girls. So it’s naturally assumed that the flowers are from a guy to a girl.
"Do they look good?"
Holly playfully blinked, her face full of joy.
The roses looked truly beautiful, they’re just budding.
"They look good."
Leo gazed at the roses in his arms, smiling softly with a sprinkle of amusement in his eyes.
They look good, just like the little girl.
Anything the little girl gifts is bound to be the best-looking.
"Hehe, I think so too."
Holly’s smile became even more pronounced.
Anything she gifts is naturally good-looking; if it wasn’t, she wouldn’t give it.
"Why did you think of sending me roses?"
Leo lowered his head to look at the roses and gently asked.
The roses in his arms were budding, just like the little girl’s smiling face, bringing joy to whoever sees it.
Anything the little girl gifts is naturally the best.
"Because a relationship should start with receiving a bouquet of flowers."
Holly playfully blinked and spoke softly.
"So, are you implying I’m at fault for not sending you flowers?"
Leo looked at the roses in his arms, feeling a mix of amusement and exasperation.
The saying is indeed true; a relationship should start with receiving a bouquet of flowers.
He had sent Holly sunflowers, but that was for her birthday, not at the start of their relationship.
After they started dating, he hadn’t sent her any flowers, not even a single rose.
"No."
Holly raised her right hand as if swearing an oath.
She indeed had no such intention; she just purely wanted to give Leo flowers, nothing more.
The intent behind sending flowers was pure.
"It’s not explicitly stated that only guys must give flowers to girls; I don’t see any problem with giving flowers to you."
Holly stated righteously, her tone suggesting that it made perfect sense.
In just a short while, everyone in the company knew about Holly giving Leo a large bouquet of roses.
Leo didn’t mind at all; instead, he felt quite proud and happy.
"Wow, I’m really envious."
"Mr. Grant and Miss Sawyer have such a great relationship."
"Why call her Miss Sawyer? Shouldn’t she be called Mrs. Grant?"
"Exactly, their relationship is so good, the wedding shouldn’t be too far off."
"Mr. Grant receiving roses is truly adorable."
"I’m suddenly curious about Leo Grant’s expression when he received the roses, hahaha."
"I can imagine it, laughed till my sides hurt."
"..."
The employees were quietly discussing, with many thoughts in their minds.
——
Rose Sawyer arrived at the agreed restaurant early, waiting for Holly and Leo. She had been looking around constantly.
She was very curious about who Holly’s boyfriend was. She left in a hurry yesterday without asking clearly, and now she regretted it a bit.
Actually, she didn’t have high expectations for Holly’s boyfriend. As long as he wasn’t too bad-looking and treated Holly well, that would do.
Holly isn’t short of money, so she doesn’t need to find a super wealthy boyfriend.
"Holly, I’m a bit nervous."
Leo Grant tightly held Holly’s hand, turning his head to look at her, his tone revealing a hint of nervousness.
Indeed, meeting the parents is something that makes anyone nervous, right?
"Don’t be nervous, I’m here."
Holly also held Leo’s hand tightly, her smile particularly gentle.
Leo lightly chuckled.
He felt he should be the one saying those words, but when Holly said it, it felt like their roles were reversed.
"Brother, you’re so outstanding, there’s no reason my mom wouldn’t like you, don’t worry."
Holly’s smile was exceptionally gentle; she spoke softly.
She believed Leo was truly outstanding, so dazzling. Such an outstanding and dazzling guy is bound to be liked.
Even if Rose Sawyer didn’t like Leo, Holly was sure she could make her mom grow fond of him.
"You’re here so early."
Holly walked into the restaurant and immediately saw Rose Sawyer. She yawned and casually said.
"Hello, Auntie."
Leo greeted Rose Sawyer and pulled out a chair for Holly, showing her utmost consideration. His tone was very polite.
Rose looked Leo up and down, her eyebrows furrowed, not relaxing.
Leo indeed had a top-notch appearance, and for someone like her who valued looks, she found Leo quite appealing.
In terms of appearance, there was nothing to criticize.
Since Holly came in, she had been observing the two of them, and their interaction was flawless. Leo was very attentive to details.
It seemed like there was nothing significant to pick on, based on her observation.
But, as Holly’s mother, even if Holly’s partner were excellent, she would still feel that no man could be good enough for her daughter.
"Hello."
Rose’s attitude was lukewarm, her tone indifferent.
"Have you ordered?"
Holly asked, smiling at Leo.
"No, who treats pays for it, right? The host isn’t here yet, so how could the guests dare to order?"
Rose shrugged, seemingly taking it as a matter of course, her eyes fixated on the menu.
