"Mind if | walk you home?’ Fitch offered, extending his arm for her to lean on rather than his hand, ensuring that their fingers
wouldn't touch. It was a gentlemanly gesture.
After a moment's hesitation, Diana accepted, looping her arm through his. She tried to stand, but the pain in her ankle was
unbearable.
Seeing her wince, Fitch crouched down and suggested, "How about | give you a piggyback ride?"
"Should | expect a little kid like you to carry me?"
"Out here in the middle of nowhere, you don't have much choice. Besides, I'm a grown man, not slittle brat.
| bet | can carry you all the way to your place without even breaking a sweat!" Fitch maintained his crouched position, ready for
her.
Diana couldn't help but laugh, climbing onto his back. “Just don't complain about my weight, okay?"

“As light as a kitten, why would | complain?" Fitch effortlessly lifted her up. "You ladies are always fussing about losing weight, slim
as you are, and then you go and ruin your health over it."
"Isn't it because you men say one thing but mean another? You prefer skinny over plump, right?"
"Hey, for the record, | don't care about size. If I'm into a woman, it doesn't matter if she's tall, short, heavy, or thin!"
“Yeah, right. As if! You guys are all about looks. Tellhonestly, would you give someone a second glance if she was on the
heavier side?"
"If you were a bit chubby, I'd still find you cute."
"You're the chubby one!" Diana playfully smacked him.
After a while, Fitch managed to get Diana into the car, making sure she was comfortably seated in the passenger seat and buckled
in.
The wind was picking up, and Fitch was still holding onto a kite. “Should | just let this kite go?"
It was no use keeping it.
Before Diana could object, the kite took to the sky with the wind, soaring effortlessly.
“Isn't that big red heart too cheesy? Was this your corny idea, or did my goofball brother cup with it?” Diana grimaced.
“lt must be his queen girlfriend's idea” Fitch guessed as he watched the kite.
After all, Martin wouldn't cup with such a romantic gesture on his own. It had to be his girlfriend making demands,
complaining, or even throwing a fit that pushed Martin to such lengths to send a kite as a peace offering.
"Did you talk to him or not?"
"I did, almost put my life on the line." Fitch stood by the car door, his tone laced with frustration. "You have no idea how annoyed |
get with that queen. | can't fathom what your brother sees in her."
Diana knew it wouldn't be easy to get her brother to give up on Serena. "Let's just head back."

She didn't want to see that heart-shaped kite anymore.
Meanwhile.
When Martin and Serena arrived at The Emerald Tower, they were informed that the top floor had been reserved by someone else.
“Who reserved it?" Serena dreaded another encounter like the one with Romeo and Arabella.
The staff member replied politely, “I'm sorry, but we cannot disclose our guest's identity."
"How long have they reserved it for?" Serena couldn't help but inquire. “Is it off-limits all day?"
"Nobody can go up until they leave."
A nearby tourist expressed envy. "Must be nice to have money, just reserving that whole top floor on a whim."
“We're the unlucky ones, waiting for them to enjoy the view before we can go up."
"Not so unlucky, though. Even though they booked it last minute, they gave each of us a thousand-dollar voucher. We get to dine
at the first and second-floor restaurants for free. It's pretty generous!"
The tower was divided into three levels. The first and second floors offered views of the city and had restaurants for dining, while
the top floor provided a panoramic 360-degree view.
