Chapter 234
The world of vibrant colors vanished under Brandon’s hands, leaving my
world in darkness. However, I wasn’t scared at all.
He was right beside me, and his warmth was more comforting than any light.
“Make a wish. From now on, with me by your side, your wishes will come true.” Brandon’s deep voice whispered in my ear, like the notes of a cello.
The music in the observation cabin was soft. My heart began to relax, and slowly let go of its tension.
He wanted me to make a wish and I pondered what I should wish for.
Since my parents passed away, I didn’t know if I had any wishes left. When I was with Chris, my wish was probably just for us to last forever.
But that was something I only wished for in my heart, and never really
vocalized.
Now, I needed to make a wish…
I asked myself what I wanted, but I wasn’t sure.
In the end, I thought of my parents and their death. I murmured, “I hope to find out the truth behind my parents‘ accident.”
“I’ll help with that,” Brandon immediately agreed.
I smiled and then pulled his hand away. “Then why make a wish when I could just tell you directly?”
“Then you wasted a good opportunity,” Brandon said as he tapped my
head.
I smirked. “I stopped believing in this a long time ago.”
Saying that, I looked toward the dazzling lights. “Since my parents‘ death, I no longer believed in divine protection.”
My head felt warm again, but this time Brandon wasn’t just patting it. He was rubbing it. “From now on, believe in me.”
He wanted to be my guardian, to give me protection.
But he didn’t know that I only trusted myself to protect me.
The lights brightened once more, and it almost illuminated the entire night sky. The lights in the amusement park were ever–changing. They never remained the same, ensuring you never saw the same light twice.
It could be said that the investment in the amusement park’s lighting project accounted for one–third of the total investment.
“This design of the Heart of the Ocean is one of my favorites,” I openly expressed my delight.
“There’s an even better one coming up,” Brandon replied with his usual confidence.
The lights that followed were more dazzling than the last, and I was completely immersed in the display.
I didn’t even notice that Brandon was holding me from behind, nor did I remember Chris in the opposing observation cabin.
It wasn’t until I was completely absorbed in the beautiful light, joyfully turning to share my excitement with Brandon, that I suddenly noticed Chris standing in the cabin across from us.
Chris was looking at me, just watching. Although I couldn’t see his expression, I could sense his calm demeanor.
The calmness was almost eerie.
In that instant, all my nerves went rigid.
Even though I had moved on from Chris, he had been a part of my life for ten years. I couldn’t just see him as a stranger, especially not at this moment. This made me feel as though I had deeply hurt him.
Brandon noticed my distress. Without saying a word, he held me tighter and then whispered softly in my ear, “There’s a special light display just for
3/3

you.”
