Chapter 718
When Taya heard that he was still teasing her, she gave up struggling in resignation and let go of his collar to bury her head into the soft quilt in embarrassment.
Standing by the bed, the man saw her legs thrashing in frustration, and his beautiful eyes smiled.
He leaned forward, propped a hand on her side, and coaxed her, “Mrs. Knight, I misbehaved just now. Will you forgive me?”
Not wanting to talk to him, Taya heard him apologizing, then looked over her shoulder at the man who was lying on his side with his chin propped on one hand, “What are you going to do to make me forgive you?”
Griffon held her thin waist and pulled her into his chest as he lowered his head and said softly, “I’m going to repay your forgiveness with my whole life, okay?”
Taya looked up from his arms, and her captivating eyes tw inkled, “No, you’ve already promised me that. Try again!”
The man’s thin lips parted slightly, and just as he was about to speak, her fingers covered his lips again, “Not eternity again, okay? You’ve promised me that as well.”
The smile on Griffon’ lips deepened, “What then, Mrs. Knight, would you like me to do?”
Her slender and fair finger tapped his lips, “I’ll punish you to spend the rest of your life by my side then.”
The man raised his thick eyebrows lightly as if wondering, “Isn’t that the same?”
But his eyes were filled with affection, “Okay, whatever you want, Mrs. Knight…”
It was only then that Taya raised her eyebrows and laughed, “You said you wanted to show me something. What was it?”
Griffon held her thin waist and pulled her onto him, “I’ll show
you now.”
The man carried her up from the bed, and with his fingers, wrapped her legs around his waist.
He then carried the supple-bodied woman to the floor-to-ceiling window. As they neared, a series of loud bangs could be heard.
In the snowy night sky, countless fireworks went off, illuminating the entire Arcadia and Mansion No. 8.

Taya turned around and looked at the fireworks, her eyes widening in surprise.
She turned her head to look at Griffon and asked tentatively, “Did you arrange this?”
Griffon shook his head slightly, and just as Taya let out a sigh of relief, he said, “Preston suggested this.”
Taya raised her eyebrows, “How long is the firework show?”
The man replied simply, “One whole night.”
Taya raised her hand to palm her forehead as she said helplessly, “Can you make it stop?”
Having carried her to the window, Griffon tilted his head and looked at her in bewilderment, “You don’t like it?”
Taya quickly waved her hands, “I do, but don’t you think it might disturb other people, as it’s getting late?”
Griffon, however, got the drift: setting off the fireworks for
one whole night was corny and childish, and he should stop it quickly.
When Preston brought up the idea, he rejected it, but his pack’s earnest persuasion made him budge.
Taya.
Putting her down, Griffon turned around to make a phone call, and the firework show stopped immediately.
Taya sighed in relief, then turned to look at the man as he sat down on the sofa, and curled her lips into a smile despite
herself.
Although these romantic moves were Preston’s ideas, Griffon had always done his best to make her happy.
With the previously unapproachable and aloof man doing
all these things just for her, it was no wonder that she was
moved.
