"Miss Joana!" The saleswoman stood in place as Stephen repeated his instructions with a more demanding look. The force of Stephen's presence was undeniable, and Joana couldn't help but react. She spontaneously reached for the payment machine, ready to hand it over to Stephen. But just as she was about to do so, John intervened in Stephen's transaction."Wait, Joana! Stop!" John's hand prevented Joana from proceeding any further.An irritated expression crossed Stephen's face. "What's your problem, John? Do you want to race or not? I want to pay for my jet ski!"John simply grinned, knowing he had something big planned. "Stephen, I think your charade ends here. I want my friends at Cartmar jet ski hangout spots to witness our showdown! That is, if they're interested."Stephen quickly retorted, "Fine! But step aside now! I want to pay for my jet ski!"The redhead man chuckled. "Impatient, aren't you?" He continued, "Hold on a minute! Don't pay for the jet ski just yet! I'll bring my frie
Stephen furrowed his forehead and grinned, "Trick, you say?" A man with curly hair and dark skin asked John in surprise, "What do you mean by tricks, John? He's already managed to pay for his jet ski!" John took a deep breath and said, "I've known him for eight years as a beach cleaner! Remember, he's been a beach cleaner for eight years! And after ten months of disappearing from the coast of Bentguay, I met him here. He wants to buy two jet skis. Does it make sense to accumulate such wealth in such a short time? If he were the son of a rich man, I would believe him! But look at him! He was lived in an orphanage and worked as a beach cleaner after his lift family bancruot! Do you understand what I mean?" The members of the Cartmar jet ski club hangout fell silent, seemingly in disbelief. In truth, Stephen was indeed the son of a wealthy man who had washed up on a beach and had just reunited with his source of wealth. With confidence, Stephen said, "John, why are you bringing that u
Two jet skis raced swiftly, battling against the wind and waves. For now, John's jet ski was leading the race. Proudly, he thought to himself, "Stephen, I will make sure you regret daring to race against me on jet skis!" Grinning behind his black helmet. Not willing to give up quickly, Stephen concentrated fully, facing forward and keeping an eye on the buoys floating above the sea as track markers. They chased each other, passing turn after turn. "Ah, that turn is my chance!" exclaimed Stephen as he spotted the orange buoy marking the next corner. Being in a favorable inside line position, Stephen confidently pressed the throttle to increase speed. Just before the turn, he reduced his speed at the right moment, successfully maneuvering through the sharp bend and overtaking John. Water splashed towards John, obscuring his vision. He cursed loudly, "Damn it! I'll get you in the next turn!" He almost crashed into a buoy and veered off the track. Unfortunately, John's chance to surpa
The redhead gritted his teeth, furious with Stephen. He never expected Stephen to have such excellent jet ski skills. He wondered how Stephen could be so amazing. And more importantly, he had the money to buy two jet skis at once and dare to bet a significant amount that most people wouldn't. "Oh, damn it! Who are you really, Stephen!" John didn't immediately respond to Stephen's provocative remark. But now he was truly trapped by his own words. He regretted it inwardly. "John? Are you okay?" Joana's melodious voice startled John. He didn't have any other choice now. Reluctantly, John said, "I'm fine. Thanks for worrying. I'm just a little tired." The redhead observed Joana, imagining if he had been the one to win the race that evening. "Joana, you would have hugged me immediately and wouldn't be shy about accepting my offer to go on a date! Unfortunately, Stephen ruined it all!" Stephen's firm voice startled John out of his daydream once again, "So, have you decided not to fulfi
After a fun-filled day at the beach, it was time for Stephen and Fiona to return to the cruise ship. Just a few steps away from the pier, a handsome brown-haired man and a blonde-haired woman in black suits approached them. Oliver greeted them respectfully, "Good evening, young sir. It seems like you had a lot of fun today." The blonde man, still wearing a life jacket after the jet ski race, smiled. "Yes, today was quite enjoyable for us." He held hands with Fiona as they headed towards the cruise ship to clean up and rest. He couldn't wait to take Fiona on an exploration of the islands around Cartmar Island using their new jet ski. Upon reaching the cruise ship, Stephen relaxed by taking a warm bath with the beautiful and graceful Fiona. In that moment, they massaged each other and joked around. However, their fun was interrupted when Fiona's stomach growled loudly. Suppressing his laughter, Stephen said, "Oh my, we were having so much fun that we forgot to have dinner!" The brun
Fiona's focus returned to the dish in front of her. The Alaskan King Crab Leg Salad with Black Truffle Dressing was a delightful treat for her taste buds. Unbeknownst to her, luxurious dish after dish was served before her. All the food was made from the finest ingredients, with each portion costing no less than $10,000. So, during that dinner, Stephen had spent a total of $234,000, more than the amount of the bet he made with John. Money was truly no issue for him. "Today we're being extravagant for dinner!" Fiona smiled faintly. Stephen's eyebrows raised. "Extravagant? There's no such thing as extravagant for you. You deserve the best of what I have!" Fiona's cheeks blushed, and she said, "Thank you for the dinner. I'm truly impressed." Fiona's expression of gratitude and thanks warmed Stephen's heart. He became even more enthusiastic, and they engaged in a lengthy conversation. After Fiona started to look sleepy, Stephen invited her to their room. Stephen embraced Fiona and sa
John was on the verge of indecision. He realized his body was shivering, and he might not be able to withstand staying in the frigid ocean, colder than his body temperature, with the constant wind blowing on the beach.Joana's face conveyed earnestness in helping him. But he felt that if he were to heed Joana, it would mean he was surrendering, betraying the agreement he had made with himself.With a pleading expression, Joana said, "John, I beg you! Come with me! For me, your safety is far more important!"Joana's sincere plea touched John's heart. In his mind, he said, "Oh, Joana! Why are you being like this to me? You make me feel like I can't let you go!"Without John's consent, the blonde woman pulled his body. However, because John didn't react, it was clear that Joana's pull meant nothing to him. With a hint of annoyance, Joana shouted, "I will jump into the water if you remain stubborn!"John seemed enchanted, he was stunned by Joana's earnestness. He admired the golden-haired
Fiona muttered softly, "Damn it! Why do journalists create news like this?" Her chest felt hot, and she wanted to run and tackle a journalist, then smash the camera that was the source of her frustration.In her heart, she said, "That cheap woman must be very happy with this news!" Then she sighed in annoyance.The door to the room opened, and a handsome blond man approached Fiona, who was sitting on the balcony. The masculine scent from his body made Fiona turn her head and admire the handsome that was so vivid before her.The man's voice sounded so melodious to Fiona's ears, "My love, let's have breakfast! After this, we will continue our adventure!" He seemed enthusiastic. The sunlight illuminating his face made him look like an angel who had descended to provide a delightful and special breakfast.However, Fiona's expression soon changed. She was still angry about the screenshot of Stephen and Keyla Fox filling national gossip websites.The blond man noticed Fiona's change in expr
