Roxanne stared at the desolate environment outside the window in panic and disbelief. “I don’t think this is a good idea, Lucian. Let’s just head home now.” She sounded upset as she wrapped the coat around her tightly.
Lucian couldn’t help but chuckle when he saw the panic on her face. “What’s so bad about this idea? Do you know what I’m going to do?” Roxanne’s eyes darted around. “Aren’t you planning to-”
Before she could finish, she noticed the car was slowing down. Lucian glanced at her before alighting from the vehicle.
With no other choice, Roxanne swallowed her words and looked outside. Her panic transformed into confusion when she saw the scene outside the window.
“Everything’s prepared, Mr. Farwell,” reported Cayden as he respectfully stood beside the car. Lucian nodded, walked to the passenger seat, and opened the door with a teasing smile. “This really can’t be done near our home. Now that you’ve seen what I have in mind, do you still want to go back?”
In the distance was a helipad brightly lit by a few searchlights. Several helicopters of varying sizes were sitting neatly on the helipad. One of the helicopters. was the one used to pick them up from their home last time.
Roxanne remained dumbfounded for a long while before she returned to her senses. “So, what you said earlier… You meant you wanted us to fly in a helicopter?”
Raising his eyebrow, Lucian answered, “What did you think I was talking about? The only reason I could fly around the city last time for a short period was that the government approved it for an emergency situation.” Roxanne blushed and glared at him with embarrassment. “Why didn’t you say that earlier? I thought…”
“I don’t mind if that’s what you want.”
“No way!” Roxanne’s eyes widened. Her embarrassed and frustrated look made him smile as he grabbed her wrist. “Come on out. I’m taking you to relax.” Roxanne got out of the car with Lucian’s assistance, and Cayden greeted respectfully, “Mrs. Farwell.”
His words caused her to blush again. “Thank you for your efforts.” Lucian is such a scoundrel! I forgot Cayden was around earlier. He must’ve heard everything we said… Oh god, how am I going to face him in the future?
“You can go home now. Expect a bonus this month,” said Lucian to Cayden. Cayden gave a reply and left because he didn’t want to be their third wheel.
Soon, only the couple was left on the mountain. Lucian brought her to a helicopter, then pressed something to open the hatch door. He held her hand again and led her inside. Roxanne examined the surrounding with curiosity.
The helicopter was bigger and better decorated than the one from before. The original seat had been replaced by a couch, and the floor was covered in soft carpet. There was even an elegant table inside with red wine and a few snacks sitting on top.
“I only made this decision before coming home, so Cayden had to set this up in a hurry.” Lucian’s voice rang out next to Roxanne’s ear before the door closed. Dim lights illuminated the interior, creating a rather ambiguous environment.
