No One But You

"You've never been there before?"

"As if you've been there before."

"I was there during my first marriage."

"You got married when you were 28. That's way too early. You don't appreciate the beautiful sceneries when you are young."

"When are we going?"

I thought about when Fairy was going to go. It seemed like it was going to be the day after tomorrow.

"Well, the day after tomorrow."

"In such a hurry? I'll have someone book the flight."

"That would be perfect!" I put my chopsticks on the table. I folded my arms around my body and slowly said, "I'll eat after you finish booking the flight."

Brooke probably never experienced a negotiation in which the other party was this arrogant. I knew he was upset.

But he still held his phone and walked out of the room. Ten minutes later he came in and told me, "The flight is the day after tomorrow at 9:28 in the morning."

I nodded in satisfaction. It was weird how I felt hungry by the time he finished booking the flight, so I picked up my bowl and ate.

I looked forward to finding out what Fairy's expression would be after she saw me. Would she be disgusted?

Just a honeymoon. What was there to show off?

I didn't see Calvin in the past few days. He left early and returned late.

Fairy's expression looked particularly anxious. I guessed that she was worried because she was leaving tomorrow. If Calvin didn't come back tonight, then that meant he didn't plan on going.

Fairy probably ate relatively little during dinner at night. For the first time, I put a piece of white cut chicken onto her plate. "Eat more. Otherwise, how are you going to have enough energy for your honeymoon?"

I winked at her. She looked at me with a particularly resentful expression. "Don't be so cocky."

"Why isn't Calvin back yet?" I was anxious for her from the bottom of my heart.

If the two of them weren't going, what would be the point of Brooke and I going on our honeymoon?

After dinner, Calvin wasn't back by the time I went to my room.

Their house was quite soundproof. Unless I leaned on the door to listen, I wouldn't know what went on outside.

So later I fell asleep and didn't know when Calvin came back or whether he came back.

We went out the next morning but met at the door of the room.

Calvin was also here. Fairy looked very happy.

Seeing our luggage, Fairy was very surprised.

"Where are you going?" She couldn't help but ask me.

"I will go wherever you go," I answered her with a grin.

I felt Calvin and Brooke turning around to look at me at the same time.

I didn't see their expressions at the moment.

I just felt something burning on the top of my head.

We were in different cars, but we went the same way. Their car was ahead of us. At first, Brooke intended to overtake them, but I said no. We were the elder and should be modest. Although he didn't believe me, he didn't ask the driver to overtake them, so we followed behind at a steady pace.

I knew what being followed felt like. It felt like being watched.

I guessed Fairy was very mad, but it was too late to change the flight.

Not surprisingly, we were on the same plane and our seats were very close.

There were only so many seats in the first-class compartment.

It was my first time flying first-class, and I was very excited.

There was an aisle between Fairy and Calvin, who sat together, and us. I could see them by turning my head a little bit.

A flight attendant pushed a cart over and asked us what we wanted. I thought about it seriously and said to her, "Ramen."

Fairy was drinking water and almost choked.

The flight attendant answered me politely, "I'm sorry, miss. There is no ramen."

I turned to ask Brooke, "Is this how first-class is? There is no ramen?"

"Why don't you ask for lamb?"

"The smell would be too strong. I am very ethical."

The flight attendant stood in front of me patiently. "We have bread and snacks. Today's meal is chicken drumstick rice and black pepper steak rice."

Just the sound of it made me lose my appetite. I ended up asking the flight attendant for juice.

I was very down. I thought that since flying first class was so expensive, I could eat something different from what was served in economy class.

As I drank the juice, Brooke looked at me. "Had enough?"

How was I making trouble? I rolled my eyes at him. "You are rich, yet you don't even have a private jet."

I said it without much thought, yet he said, "I do. It's just that you were in a hurry, so there wasn't enough time to plan the flight. You can take it on your way back." Was there actually a private jet? Brooke was so rich that I almost fell in love with him.

I immediately leaned on his shoulder and said to him in a voice that was enough to give anyone goosebumps, "You are so kind. Thank you, my dear."

Brooke read the situation well. He cooperated with my acting and didn't push me away.

I looked at Fairy. She also pretended to accidentally lean on Calvin's shoulder, but he immediately avoided her.

Seeing her upset expression made me laugh to death.

Calvin didn't like her, and she didn't have the same bargaining chip as I did, so she would lose no matter what she bet on.

She was humiliating herself. How stupid.

The flight lasted more than ten hours. I was drowsy along the way.

After flying for so long, I didn't hear Calvin say a single word.

He didn't always wear a poker face. He talked a lot when he was with me.

He mostly looked out the window or closed his eyes.

I didn't know what he was thinking. I didn't know why someone like him would agree with Fairy to come with her on their honeymoon.

He didn't seem like the type to compromise.

In fact, I wanted to know where Bonnie was now. Since he liked her so much, he could just elope with her.

Or was it that he couldn't give up the Knight Family's wealth and his current status?

I didn't know. I looked at him and was in a daze. Until he turned his head and saw me, I was still looking at him foolishly.

Fairy quickly realized that we were looking at each other, and immediately leaned on Calvin's shoulder.

He didn't push her away this time.

Were they engaging in public displays of affection?

I could as well.

I said to Brooke, "My dear, I'm tired. You have to hold me after we get off the plane."

He didn't even look at me. "You can sit in the luggage cart."

Boring, not interesting at all.

If it was Calvin, he would definitely say, "Okay, I will hold you."

Why would I compare these two people?

The two of them were not comparable.

When we arrived in Malé, there was a car to pick us up.

We were in the same car. Not only was Fairy in shocked, but I also was a little surprised.

Brooke said to me indifferently, "Wasn't this the effect you wanted?"

Now it looked like we were going to be in the same hotel as well.

Brooke was a smart man and knew what I liked.

Since he was pure-hearted towards me, I would be good and give birth to the baby.

The hotel was by the sea. I saw the sea before we even arrived.

I yelled and grabbed Brooke's hand, signalling to him to look. "The sea is so blue! Look! It's beautiful!"

They were all calm. I was the only one who looked like a fool.

Fairy looked at me with disdain. "You've never seen the sea?"

Of course, I saw it before. It was just that I had never seen the sea in the Maldives.

It was natural to be excited when travelling. What would be the point of being calm like them?☐☐☐☐☐☐
