Steve stood far away to see the Xiao family's reunion. He smiled and missed the days when he used to be close with them.
During the years that Thirza was in Milan, Steve was deliberately away from Adam and Tracey. No specific reasons, he just felt it hard to face them.
Tracey walked over and said, "Steve, long time no see."
"Hi, Tracey."
"Thirza should be troubling you a lot."
"No, she wasn't. To be honest, when she left, I felt quite lonely. I really missed when she was at home and the noise she made."
"Fine. Look at you, you are already forty. It's time to marry. Don't drag it out. Did you say you fell in love with someone? Did you lie?"
"Tracey, I do have someone to love."
"Who is she?" Tracey asked with a gossipy look on her face.
"You'll know her in a few days." Steve couldn't be more eager to tell Tracey the secret, however, he still had to save it until later Thirza's birthday party.
"Woo, playing mystery with me?" Tracey expected to know this girl was.
The birthday party was very lively. Almost all the world's top figures were presenting.
Thirza and Serena were wearing high-end Thirza-designed dresses and delicate makeup, both of them looked like princesses.
Steve was also dressed up. When he saw Thirza wearing high heels and jewelry with her hair tied up, his heart jumped fast.
Today, she was as beautiful as a bride. Steve was in a daze to see she ran over with smiles.
"Steve!"
"Slow down, you are wearing high heels."
As soon as he finished speaking, Thirza fell. Steve quickly held her up. "You are still so rash."
Thirza stuck out her tongue and said, "Because I know that you will be able to catch me."
"Thirza, you look so beautiful."
"I will be more beautiful when being your bride." Thirza leaned into Steve's ear. "Tonight...you won't be able to flee."
"Little girl, pay attention to your words."
"I wanted you since many years ago." Thirza kissed Steve's lips. "This is deposit."
Thirza left smiling. Around the corner, she met Serena. At the moment, her smile was freezing, "you saw it, didn’t you?"
Serena was calmer than Thirza thought. "Thirza, you and Steve..."
"I love him."
"What about him?"
"He loves me too."
Serena was not surprised. "Sure enough, I used to notice that something might happen between you two. It was true."
"Good eye, Serena. But... you don't blame me?" Thirza admired her judgment so much.
"Why should I blame you? You're already in love with him, so he is. Would any blame change it?"
"No."
"I just want to remind you that daddy and mommy won't agree on this matter easily." Serena said and left coldly.
Since a long time ago, she had found that Thirza had an abnormal relationship with Steve. At first, she thought that it was the desire of occupation of a teenage girl.
Later, she found that it was not that simple. Thirza had different emotion toward Steve.
Every time when Tracey tried to introduce a girlfriend to Steve, Thirza was unhappy, she would even interrupt Tracey's plan.
Serena particularly doubted that something had happened between Thirza and Steve last time when they were in Myriad Flower Valley.
Besides, Serena was confused that how could Thirza stay in Milan for six years without going home. She wasn't back home, Steve didn't come to visit her either.
All her doubts were proved today.
