I did not deny it. "Speople say that women should eat fewer pastries or they'll get old easily." She was amused and popped a piece into her mouth. "What's the definition of old for women?" Her question renderedspeechless.
Celine took her seat besideand said with a smile," Speople are obviously in their 20s yet they have n o expectations and dreams for the future. They muddle through their lives. Sare obviously 70 or 8 0 years old yet are still trying new things and living positive lives. Which group of these two kinds of people do you think are older?"

I finished my food and had nothing to do, so I walked around freely in the ballroom.
There were a lot of employees in Grant Corporation, and after inviting several business leaders and distinguished figures in Whaldorf City, the ballroom was dense with the crowd.
Sof the small-scale Al research machines were given out to several outstanding employees. Then, Theo took the opportunity to announce to everyone that the Al machinery field would be handled by Elena.
At the sight of the Al machines, I must admit that Elena was truly an outstanding researcher and deserved to be valued by Theo.
After his speech, Theo left the stage and walked straight toward me.
He ignored the gazes of the crowd and held my hand, asking, "How are the pastries?" "Really good." This was the best evaluation that could ever cout of my mouth.
Theo looked dotingly at me. "I'll ask the pastry chef to cover to our place to make them for you if you want to eat them next time." I laughed. "Aren't you afraid that I'll gain weight?" "It's good to gain weight. It proves that you're healthy." With the identity that Theo had, he was bound to be the center of attention. I was not used to being stared a t, so I thought I should drag him out for a walk.

Speople who were good at swimming had already jumped into the pool to rescue the person. Theo asked in a deep voice, "What's going on?" The employee standing on the side quickly said, "Ms. Mandez was pushed into the swimming pool." I frowned. "She was pushed?"
"I don't know what happened exactly," the employee said with a choking voice as though he had received a ET shock.
Elena was rescued. The water in the pool in winter was cold, and she was shivering! Here shivering Her lips were turning blue.
The hotel attendant brought a blanket and draped it around her, but she was still shivering due to the cold.
Theo walked over and half-bent beside her. "Are you okay?"
Elena was so frightened that she had yet to realize what was going on. She stared at Theo for a very long tbefore stareddenly jumping into his arms and crying her heart out. X
