The blue fireworks were already over, and the wind was starting to pick up outside.
Due to the loud noise of the fireworks, people standing on the balcony didn't notice Patricia's arrival.
When everyone came back inside, they only saw Ellinor and Bartlett chatting on the couch, but Theo was nowhere to be found.
Jonah sat down and asked, "Ellinor, where's your guy?"
Ellinor gave a small smile, pointing towards the stairs, "He went upstairs."
Belinda sat next to Ellinor, "What's Theo doing upstairs? Leaving you here all alone!"
Ellinor took a small sip of her juice without responding.
Belinda, who was always full of energy, just finished asking about Theo, then took out her phone to show Ellinor the blue fireworks she just captured, "Ellinor, what do you think of my shot?"
Ellinor took a glance. Belinda had posted the video on her social media, and it got a lot of likes.
She nodded with a smile, "Yes, your photography skills are really good."
Belinda, like a child who just got complimented, "Right? I think so too!"
Then she got busy responding to comments on her post.
Balfour gracefully walked over, sat down next to Ellinor, and asked in a low voice, "Why did you leave halfway just now? Didn't you like the blue fireworks?"
Ellinor looked at him and calmly replied, "They were beautiful, thank you. How much did those fireworks cost? I'll pay for them along with the drinks when I leave."
Balfour was taken aback by her response, and he frowned awkwardly, "Those fireworks were for your viewing. There’s no need for you to pay."
