After Stephen felt sufficiently sweaty, he rose from the sunbathing chair and glanced at the food on the table. He grabbed a bottle of very fresh-looking orange juice, making his mouth water. He then poured the contents of the bottle into a glass filled with ice while sitting on a sofa.

Stephen muttered, "Hmmm... so refreshing!" He turned to Fiona, who was still comfortably lying down, wearing sunglasses.

"Fiona, drink this quickly! It's perfect in this hot weather!"

The brown-haired woman got up, took the glass Stephen offered, and sat beside him.

While enjoying the fresh orange juice, Stephen and Fiona looked at the sea, and Mount Cartmar began to come into view. That meant they would reach land soon.

Stephen then turned to Fiona and asked, "Do you like sailing?" She sipped her orange juice and said, "Yes, I do. I hope you can invite me to sail like this more often!" She smiled faintly.

The blond man smiled, "Alright, as long as you have a lot of free days, I don't mind."

He drew her lips closer to his, savoring the sweetness and freshness that he had in mind. As Stephen was lost in the kiss, a seagull flew low and nearly collided with his head. They both jumped in surprise, watching the seagull ascend high once again. "Oh my!" he muttered softly, while Fiona laughed. Stephen's gaze then shifted to the beautiful woman who was giggling. "Do you enjoy seeing me startled by a near bird collision?" She covered her mouth with one hand and replied, "Of course not. I was surprised by the bird too." She laughed again. The blond man in the white t-shirt let out a soft sigh. "No, you must be thrilled to see me almost have a heart attack!" He pl

"Engaging in dialogue with a person whose mind has been unduly influenced and manipulated proves to be an intricate endeavor!"Stephen, a blonde man in a crisp white shirt, audibly sighed, his annoyance palpable. John's constant presence had become an unwelcome distraction, wasting his precious time on trivial matters. With a piercing gaze, Stephen locked eyes with John, attempting to intimidate him into submission."John, I've had enough of your meddling. Your presence here, causing disruptions, is unwarranted.
