After a few hours of intense studying, William and Isabel decided to take a break and have lunch.
They sat at the small table in his office, enjoying the delicious chicken sandwiches that Isabel had prepared earlier.
"Thank you for the lunch, Isabel. It was delicious," William said with a smile.
"You're welcome, William.
I'm glad you liked it," Isabel replied, blushing slightly.
As they ate, they talked about their studies and their plans for the future. Isabel was excited to finish her degree and pursue a career in medicine, while William was focused on growing his family's business and expanding their influence.
"I have a surprise for you, Isabel," William said suddenly, interrupting their conversation.
"A surprise? What is it?" Isabel asked, curious.
William stood up and walked over to his desk, where he pulled out a small jewelry box. He handed it to Isabel with a smile.
"Open it," he said.
Isabel hesitated for a moment, wondering what could be inside the box. When she opened it, she gasped in surprise. Inside was a beautiful diamond necklace, sparkling in the light.
"William, this is beautiful! I don't know what to say," Isabel said, touched by the gesture.
"It's nothing, really. Just a small token of appreciation for all your hard work," William said modestly.
Isabel put on the necklace, and William helped her fasten it around her neck. As they looked at each other, Isabel felt a flutter in her chest. She had never felt this way before, and she couldn't help but wonder if William felt the same.
As the afternoon wore on, William and Isabel continued their studies. They worked together, learning from each other, and enjoying each other's company. When it was time to leave, William escorted Isabel to the car and said goodbye.
"Thank you for today, William. I had a great time," Isabel said, smiling.
"The pleasure was mine, Isabel. I look forward to our next study session," William replied, also smiling.
As the car pulled away from the office, Isabel couldn't stop thinking about William and the feelings she had for him. She didn't know what the future held, but she knew that she was happy and grateful to have him in her life.
