Chapter 49: Midnight Fireworknovelbin
Natalia’s POV
The sound is so annoying that it stops me from falling asleep.
“What the fuck?” I groan, jumping off bed and heading towards the window.
Then the next second, before I grab the handle, a bright and flashy beam of light shots up in front of mywindow
It’s a firework!
I’m so amazed by the view in front of me that I freeze up on the spot. Those starry sparks explode intoa thousand glamorous particles of light, like rainfall of diamond and gems, and completely light up thevelvet summer night.
Moments later, the show finally stops. I immediately rush forward and shove the window open. Lookingdown, I find Eason standing on the ground, holding a few firework sticks, grinning at me.
This is probably the scene every girl has been dreaming for, a hot boy waiting in front of the window,lighting the firework.
And on top of everything, Eason himself is every girl’s dream.
“What-what are you doing here? Where did you get this?” I ask, breathing fast.
“I brough it from your mom’s party,” he laughs. “You like it?”
“From my mom’s party? Oh my god she’ll kill you.”
“Relax. Are you allergic to romantic stuff?” he rolls his eyes. “These are the extras.”
I can’t stop myself from smiling. Him, the summer night, the firework…even if this is just a shortsummer fling, it has to be the best I’ve ever have.
“So,” he raises his head and looks at me. “Can I come up there?”
I hold my breath involuntarily. “…Why?”
“Relax. I won’t push you,” he spreads his hands. “I know you need time to think. I just want to spendthe night with you…lying on the bed by your side.”
God. Can anyone say no to him?
Before I even realize, I’ve already blurted out, “Come, but be quiet.”
His smile grows wider and disappears from my view.
Moments later, I hear a gentle knock on my door. Feeling my heartbeat accelerating, I immediately rushto the door and get it. The door opens up and I’m greeted by his face and a bunch of red roses.
“You-“I feel my cheek flaming, “You brought these from my mom too?”
“No. Hand-picked by me from the garden today,” he bows and hand me the bouquet. “Can’t go on adate without flowers, right?”
I bury my face in the roses and smell the flower, the corner of my lips curving up. He can be sothoughtful and sweet when he wants to.
“I love it,” I say earnestly, “Come in, quick.”

I let him in and close the door behind him.
He said he wanted to sleep with me and nothing else, and that’s exactly what he does. We lie on thebed face to face, with my head resting on his arms. He pats me gently, humming a soft song.Sleepiness finds me again quickly
Before I fall asleep completely, I feel a soft kiss land on my forehead.
Eason’s POV
I kiss her on the forehead and look at her face closely. Very soon, her breathing becomes even. And Iknow she has fallen asleep.
Very carefully, I withdraw my arm and grab my phone. I turn on the camera, aiming at her face, andsnap a few shots quickly.
I have an album of these: photos and videos of her being with me, screenshots of her texts to me…everything
If everything goes as planned, the day after tomorrow at the dinner reception, instead of seeing a VCRof warm blessings from friends and relatives, all customers will see these. 1
And they will know the gold-digger’s daughter has seduced the only heir to the Ramirez family. 3
Their reputation will be destroyed. She will be ashamed. And she will taste the same kind of bitternessthat she left me with three years ago. 1
I imagine her face at that moment once again. I should feel triumph and excitement. But surprisingly, anunsettling and frantic feeling grips my heart.
I tighten my hug immediately, holding her closely to my chest. She mumbles something in her sleepand buries her face into the hollow my neck.
No. I can’t let her soften me up..
I shake off those uneasy feelings and roll to the side. Her hands try to find me unconsciously, but Iavoid her. She curls up by herself eventually and goes back to sleep again. Soon everything will beover. And she won’t be able to influence me anymore.
