Chapter 552 - Beach

Their feet stepped towards the ocean. Every time the waves rolled, Aiden would carry Anya so she wouldn't get wet all over her body. And once the wave came back to the ocean, he would lower her back down.

Even though they only simply enjoyed their time together, Anya was very happy.

The next wave was about to come, bigger than before.

Anya immediately hugged Aiden tightly, "Carry me!"

The man immediately returned her hug and lifted her from the ground, "Why are you so big yet so light? You have to take care of your health,"

"I'll be a parfumeur later. How could I work without a healthy body? Don't worry, I'll take care of myself," Anya said with a smile. Then, she tapped Aiden on the shoulder, gesturing for him to put her down.

Aiden immediately lowered her to the ground gently, "There is a bonfire party tonight. Do you want to come?"

"Bonfire party? Of course!" Anya's eyes sparkle.

"Let's go over there," while talking, they didn't realize that another wave was starting to roll their way. Aiden immediately hugged Anya and carried her, then rushed to run from the place. Meanwhile, Anya tightly hugged Aiden's neck and shouted happily, "Let's run quickly!"

They ran quite a distance, avoiding the big waves. However, Aiden's vision suddenly blurred and made him fall on the sand along with Anya in his arms.

"Are you alright? I ran too fast and didn't pay attention to my steps," Aiden tried to find an excuse.

"It's okay. The sand is soft so it doesn't hurt," Anya laid on the sand still  with Aiden's arm on her back. Her gaze was fixed on the sky above. "Look, can you see the stars?"

"When the sky gets dark, more stars will appear," Aiden replied.

Anya closed her eyes and listened to the sound of the waves rustling. She had never felt this calm and peaceful before.

They laid on the beach until music could be heard from the island's square. It seemed that the bonfire party had already started.

When they got there, the place was full of people. They formed a circle around the fire, holding hands while dancing to the music.

"It turns out that there are a lot of people on this island..." Anya did not expect the bonfire party on this small island to be so crowded.

"Tonight, all residents and tourists gather here. It's a rare occasion, they can't always enjoy the bonfire party everyday so many people have come to watch it," Aiden chuckled.

Beautiful fireworks bloomed above the sky, like a meteor. As the fireworks decorated the sky, Anya looked above, while Aiden looked at the side of her face. Colorful lights reflected on her face, making Anya so beautiful like an angel.

The light that shone on her looked much different from other people. Anya looked like the biggest and most beautiful star in the sky…

After the fireworks ended, the people went back around the fire. This time, several tourists ventured to join in.

"Come on, let's dance," Anya immediately pulled Aiden's hand toward the fire.

They couldn't get too close to the bonfire because there were too many people, but they ended up joining the crowd to form a large circle.

Several of Aiden's bodyguards joined in, worried that something might happen in a crowd.

After dancing for a while, Anya smelled food not far from there. Dancing did make her tired and hungry. "Do you smell this scent?"

"The smell of grilled meat over there," Aiden chuckled seeing Anya looking greedy like a child.

"Can we try it? I won't eat much," Anya asked Aiden pitifully.

Aiden looked at the stall not too far from the fire. Several chefs in white clothes worked together to grill the large meat.

Apart from Anya, other tourists also queued to try this island's special meat.

On the other side, there was a stall with a variety of fresh fruits, salads and desserts that could be enjoyed at will.

"Many are waiting in line. If we don't go there now, we won't get it," Anya said anxiously.

Aiden immediately ordered someone to stand in line for them. After waiting for a while, the chef finally finished cooking it.

Unexpectedly, the chef personally came to deliver the grilled meat to him.

"Thank you. I'm very happy today," Anya looked like a child after playing for the whole day. She was very satisfied.

Aiden played with her and spoiled her all day. The man really wanted to love Anya and protect her for the rest of his life, but they could only be together for three days.

These three days, Aiden would do his best to win over Anya's heart… 

Anya happily tasted the grilled beef on her plate. Even though she got a large beef, she only tried a few slices and then gave them to Aiden, just as she promised him. Aiden immediately gave it to his bodyguards.

After that, they looked for a seat to rest.

Aiden left for a moment to get yogurt for her. Anya then accepted it and immediately drank it slowly.

While drinking it, her eyes continued to gaze towards the distance, where the bonfire was still wildly burning.

The flames continued to rise higher and higher, making the night sky look bright like day.

The light from the fire shone on Anya's face. So warm, peaceful and beautiful…

Gradually, Aiden felt like he lost control of his thoughts.

"This yogurt is delicious, like the one I drank when I was little," Anya looked at the yogurt package.

"Let me try," Aiden gently lifted Anya's chin and chewed her lips.

Anya could only blink her eyes repeatedly. Was this the newest way to taste yogurt?

"Yeah right," Aiden said seriously.

Anya's face flushed red, but she tried to calm her heartbeat that was getting crazy. "How does it taste?" She asked, pretending to be calm.

"Sweet," Aiden's face did not turn red like hers. He looked the same as usual. But no one knew that the man's heart was pounding just as fast.

Anya felt her face getting hotter.

How sweet the yogurt tasted? What was Aiden actually talking about?

Did Aiden mean her sweet lips?

They had not seen each other in two years, but Aiden had changed drastically. The old him wouldn't be able to say anything this sweet. Did Nico teach him?

They returned to enjoying music and bonfire until the song ended. Everyone held hands as if they wanted to keep a good memory of this moment in their hearts.

From a distance, Aiden could see the light from the camera and realized that someone was taking pictures of him with Anya.

Maybe that person also took a photo of their kiss…

However, Anya had no idea that someone would recognize them in the middle of the party's crowd.

"Sir, do you want us to stop that person?" Aiden's bodyguard also saw the person who was secretly taking their picture and asked the man if he wanted to arrest them.
