Esther Shaw didn't really know why she was hosting tonight's party. There weren't many people, but the setup was quite unique.
The moment Ethan Laurent and Summer Ford arrived on the deck, fireworks began to burst over the ocean.
Multicolored beams of light soared into the sky, exploding one after another with a loud crash, like stardust spilling across the night sky, dressing it in radiant splendor.
Summer Ford stood quietly in front of the railing, watching the ocean.
Tonight, she wore a sea-blue gown, catering to Ethan Laurent's taste. Her long hair fell casually over her shoulders, and the sea breeze fluttered a few playful strands across her face, teasing her skin and also making Ethan feel a tingle inside.
He took a few steps over, his fingertips lifting a small strand of her hair, and tucked it behind her ear.
The gesture made Summer Ford pause slightly, but she didn't pay it any mind.
