Chapter 129: Preparing For Christmas Dinner

"Okay, then…" Loriel nodded in understanding. Elis's answer confirmed his suspicion that Elise planned to make something special for him, maybe a cake? And she wanted to make it a surprise. He touched Elise's shoulder and said, "I will see you later tonight?"

"Yes. See you."

Elise stood in her place to watch Loriel enter his car and then drove off. Once the car was out of sight, she went to the bakery and opened the door using the passcode give to her by Lucius.

Once she was inside, Elise went straight to the kitchen and got ready to work.

When Christmas evening was fast approaching, Loriel finished the preparation for the special dinner he planned to confess his love to Elise. He was in a very good mood because of the opportunity to create the best possible setting for tonight's event.

With Elise being away to prepare her own surprise, Loriel got ample time and freedom to make his own preparation.
