Upon hearing this, James furrowed his brow in a straightforward manner and said, "Wasn't me."
"I thought as much. You don't strike me as the type."
Sophie looked up at the starry sky, a rare, relaxed smile spreading across her face.
As the fireworks continued into the tenth minute, Sophie's expression turned somewhat serious. "This production team... sure knows how to spend money."
As they looked up from the courtyard, the fireworks burst into a spectacular array of colors, just like in a movie, unreal in their beauty.
At first, Sophie was enjoying the awe the fireworks brought her, but by the tenth minute, she was starting to feel overwhelmed.
She rubbed her ears, silently counting in her head. Ten thousand, twenty thousand, thirty thousand...
After fifteen minutes had passed, the dazzling fireworks finally ceased. Great, the fireworks were worth a million dollars. The production team was richer than she had imagined.
Finally, as the last of the fireworks faded, James asked, "Did you like it?"
Sophie earnestly replied, "I did at first, but not so much now."
She walked back into the living room without looking back.
The fireworks had left her ears ringing. They were beautiful, but she didn't want to see them again anytime soon.
James remained silent for a moment, then pulled out his phone and sent a message to Colt.
James: [Prepare fireworks.]
Colt: [Mr. Burke, what kind of fireworks would you like?]
James: [There are different kinds?]
