Summer let her guard down, realizing she had been overthinking it all along. So, she followed his footsteps, admiring the tastefully decorated villa. "How many houses do you have?" she asked Spencer.
"Not many, just two that I live in regularly," Spencer replied. "Do you have more elsewhere?"
The villa had four floors, very spacious, with a gym, private theater, and tea room among other facilities. As they reached the rooftop, they discovered a large rooftop garden, decorated with a rockery, flowing water, and lush greenery all around.
The hydrangeas on the rooftop were especially beautiful. The atmosphere lights wrapped around the railings emitted a warm yellow glow, and a lovely moon lamp lay not far away, creating a cozy and romantic ambiance.
A set of star-gazing equipment was arranged on the rooftop, with two telescopes standing out, and high bar stools for seating. The girl glanced at him, realizing he wasn't joking about bringing her to watch the meteor shower under the guise of script research.
Spencer checked the time on his wrist and informed her, "The meteor shower will start in ten minutes and reach its peak in about twenty minutes. The scene is bound to be spectacular, and this even has a photo-taking feature." He then began adjusting the instruments, looking quite professional.
Did he used to bring his ex-girlfriends here before? "What's wrong?" Spencer felt her distraction and her gaze fixed on him, prompting him to ask, "Do you not trust my instruments or the spot I chose? Let me tell you, this is definitely the best observation deck."
Summer sat on a nearby rattan chair, enjoying the pleasant evening. "What about studying the script?" she asked.
"After changing roles, you seemed nervous. I thought helping you relax would be better than script study," he reasoned.
