Across the mountain was a well–known tourist spot. They could still see the cable car faintly in the distance. This place was really nice.

Madeline thought he was acting strangely. She glanced down at her clothes. They were quite conservative. Swimsuits were generally like this, and she didn’t think Gavin was the shy type.
She thought, “He’s old enough. Has he never seen women in swimsuits before?‘
She advised. “You must be a bit uncomfortable. Let me tell you. Don’t soak in the deep areas. Come to the shallower part. If the water chest, it can compress your chest and make breathing difficult.”
Seeing her speak so earnestly, Gavin couldn’t help but sigh and hold his forehead, momentarily lost for words.

Gavin raised his phone. Then I’ll take one.” He snapped a photo of Madeline and then asked her to take one of him.
Gavin stroked his chin, noticing how great both of them looked in the picture. He downloaded a photo editing app and added a cute sticker over Madeline’s chest. He didn’t want anyone else to see her good figure.
Meanwhile, Eugene was at the mountain retreat for a party, wearing sunglasses and casually holding a glass of champagne.
His long legs and bare upper body showcased an impressive camellia tattoo. Wherever he went, he attracted attention like a superstar.
His demeanor combined arrogance and freedom. There was a cold smile on his lips.
“Mr. Sharp, I want to drink with you. A well–known Instagram influencer approached. “Can I have that honor?”
Eugene sneered and clinked glasses with her. He nodded and took a small sip of his drink.
The influencer’s eyes gleamed. “I heard you were engaged. Seems like you’re quite hard to get.”
She had set her sights on Eugene, who was known as a wealthy bachelor in Japrium. Among the elite, many tried to catch his attention but failed.
