Amanda asked Lucian while they were eating, “Did you say that this place is famous for its hot spring? Go check out which one is popular. Shall we go for a dip after the meal?”
“It's getting late.” Lucian glanced at his watch and replied, “By the time we're done enjoying the hot spring, it will be even later, and we'll miss the bus which takes us back to Salinsburgh.”
“It's fine. We can put up a night here.”
Genevieve was delighted to see how happy Amanda was. “That's what we're here for! I brought you two here to have fun, so you can stay as long as you wish.”
Hearing so, Lucian whipped out his phone and started searching for a hot spring nearby. Soon, he found one with plenty of good reviews.
Amanda had grown to like Bruce. Upon realizing that he was alone and had nowhere to go, she invited him to join them for a trip to the hot spring. Bruce agreed without hesitating.
On their way there, he sent a text message using his phone.
The hot spring was nestled among huge rocks and lush green trees. Since it was already nightfall, candles were lit around the compound, making the entire place a picturesque scene.
Amanda did not wait for another second to remove her towel and jump into the hot spring. Her cheeks were flushed red due to the hot steam.
“Mommy.” Puzzled, she snuggled up to Genevieve and asked, “Shouldn't there be a lot of guests here at the open-air hot spring? Why are there only a few of us?”
She scanned her surroundings and added, “Moreover, Mr. Gable isn't here, either.”
“There are a lot of similar options in this area.” Genevieve disliked crowded places. She felt more comfortable having the whole place for her small family. “Perhaps they have chosen another one to go to.”
Amanda sighed.
Right then, Bruce arrived fashionably late with a rounded tray of fruit platter and drinks. He was dressed in a black swimming trunk.
Amanda approached him and checked out the big tray of berries he had placed by the pool. She commented curiously, “These strawberries look so weird. They have something strange on them.”
“The black ones are pickled plums,” Bruce explained to her softly. “Would you like to try some?”
She picked one up and had a big bite. Seconds later, she exclaimed excitedly, “It's so tasty!”
There was a sparkle in her eyes as she took two of them to share with Genevieve and Lucian.
