Shane pulled out a chair for Natalie. “Let's eat first.”
“Sure.” Natalie nodded and sat.
He then took a seat opposite her. Just when he was about to tuck the napkin into his collar, he was stopped by
Natalie.
She reached out and pressed on his hand gently. “Wait.”
“What's wrong?” Shane glanced at her.
Natalie took out her phone and turned it off. “Let's turn off our phones so that no one will disturb us. Can you do
that?”
Shane chuckled. “Sure.”
He placed the napkin down and turned off his phone as well. “Is this better?”
Natalie nodded. “Much better. Let's dig in.”
With that, they both started on their meals.
Midway through, the lights went out all of a sudden.
If it weren't for the lights shining through the floor-to-ceiling windows, the room would have been encased in total
darkness.
“What happened? Did the power went out?” Natalie put down her cutlery, confusion in her eyes.

power cut happening.”
“Then, this...”
Before she could finish, a sound came from outside. Something glowing started to rise from the ground and shot up
into the sky. Immediately after, colorful lights exploded across the dark skies.
It's fireworks!
Natalie's eyes lit up at the beautiful colors and designs of the fireworks. She stood up swiftly before walking toward
the windows to get a closer look.
She placed her hands on the glass and stared at the beautiful view outside with a look of wonderment. “Shane,
hurry. Come and have a look. It's unbelievable. I never thought that I would get to see fireworks here.”
“The law did state that fireworks weren't allowed in the city, but it is possible if one could get their request
approved.” Shane slowly walked toward her and stood beside her.
Natalie stared intently at the fireworks. “It's so beautiful. I wonder who is so generous as to light fireworks here?”
Shane stuffed his hands in his pockets, for he already had an answer.
The sudden lights out, and the fireworks that went off outside afterward. There couldn't be anyone else but Jackson.
As the fireworks display continued, another surprise came into their view suddenly.
It was balloons as far as the eye could see. In fact, there were so many balloons that it seemed to be more than
hundreds of them. Vertical banners were attached to the balloons.
The messages on the banners gave Natalie a surprise, it stated: We wish Mr. Shane and Ms. Natalie a happy
marriage.

“Mr. Shane and Ms. Natalie?” Natalie mumbled the words. She quickly realized and turned to Shane. “They're
referring to us!”
Shane nodded silently.
Natalie swallowed and bravely guessed, “Did you prepared all these?”
“Yes and no.” Shane shook his head lightly.
“What do you mean by that?” Natalie blinked in confusion.
Shane glanced at the romantic view outside and explained gently, “I asked Jackson how to make it up to you for
yesterday's matter, and he said that he would take care of it, so this is all him.”
Shane had no idea Jackson was planning to light fireworks and release balloons with banners.
“I see.” Natalie nodded with understanding. “He is quite the attentive man.”
“Do you like it?” Shane asked as he gaze at her.
She raised her head and flashed a dazzling smile at him. “I love it. I'm so happy. Thank you, Darling.”
Natalie stepped forward and wrapped her arms around him.
His eyes darkened at her initiative, and he instinctively held onto her tightly. He swallowed and said with a husky
voice, “Repeat what you said.”
Natalie was taken aback by his request.
Shane looked into her eyes and repeated, “Call me again as you did before.”
