Chapter 194 Invitation
After meeting Arnold, Cora walked alone on the street.
There were very few pedestrians. Everyone had probably gone home to reunite with their families.
Perhaps due to the lack of people on the street or some other reason, Cora felt extremely lonely.
At that moment, the phone in her coat pocket vibrated again.
She hesitated for a moment before taking out her phone to
check.
There were several missed calls from Byron.
Remembering his indifferent expression, Cora didn’t want to see him right away.
Thus, she ski ped his missed calls and checked the message from Tyler instead.
[Cora, are you coming over?]
Only then did Cora recall that she had promised Tyler to go to the Cooper Villa for a Christmas Eve
dinner.

However, ever since Tyler found out about her affair with
Byron during a drunken incident, he had been avoiding her.
She thought he must have looked down on her behavior and ended their friendship unilaterally.
Yet, she figured that was for the best. She thought lowly of
herself as well, so she understood his cold treatment of her.

Christmas Eve.
Before she replied to his text, he called her.
“Cora, where are you? I’ll give you a ride. It’s difficult finding a
taxi on Christmas Eve.”
Tyler sounded as enthusiastic as ever while talking to her over the phone.
At that moment, Cora felt she was on the verge of tears.
“But Tyler, you know I…”
She was with Byron, even when it was widely rumored that he
and Jane were a couple.
Moreover, she was aware that Tyler had feelings for her and

had been trying to get closer to her.

Thus, her being with Byron was a humiliation for Tyler, like a slap on his face.
But he never acted out. On the contrary, he even invited her enthusiastically to have Christmas Eve
dinner at his home, which made her feel even more guilty.
Before she could lament about it, Tyler interrupted her, “There’s nothing to worry about! Come on. My
grandfather wants you at our place! I’m going to get you if you don’t
come.”
In the end, Cora gave in.
It wasn’t easy finding a taxi on such a busy night, so she had to put in some extra money before she
was able to make her way to the Cooper Villa.
The Cooper Villa was bustling with activity that night. Almost
all of the family members were present, and Gideon enjoyed
their company.
There were multiple cars parked outside the building when
Cora arrived. The house was decorated for the festive
occasion, and children were having fun among themselves in the yard. The joyful atmosphere warmed
her heart.

The moment she stepped out of the car, Tyler scampered out of the house. “Come on in, Cora! I was
planning to go get you if you’re ten minutes later!”
He was wearing a navy-blue turtleneck sweater paired with black trousers that accentuated his slim
figure. His every move exuded a charming, noble elegance.
“Come in! Everyone’s waiting!” Tyler ushered once again.
Cora followed him to meet the family elders.
“Hey, is that Cora? We were just talking about you!” Gideon
greeted Cora merrily.

Cora greeted the family elders, and to her surprise, she
received several gifts from them.
Amidst the lively atmosphere, the Cooper family’s Christmas
Eve dinner commenced.
Though not extravagantly luxurious, the meal consisted of organic vegetables and delightful small
pastries.
Tyler made sure she was well-fed, perhaps worried that she
was either hungry or would feel out of place.

Food filled Cora’s plate to the brim, much to the amusement
of Tyler’s relatives. “What a wonderful young lady you are. No
wonder Tyler has his eyes on you.”
“Tyler is an eligible bachelor. When could we perhaps expect some good news?”
Tyler let out a chuckle. “It’ll be up to Cora.”
Cora racked her brain in search of a suitable response so that the rejection wouldn’t hurt Tyler and
would convey to him that she wouldn’t be a good match for him. However, Tyler’s mother, Cecilia
Cooper, spoke before she could, “You won’t be hearing any good news any time soon. This is, after all,
the first time Tyler brought a girl home…”
