Chapter 11: Surprise
Translator: 549690339
That day, when Amelia Sanchez heard that Shane Goodwin was sentenced to ten years, she felt delighted but also somewhat doubtful.
It's because the things Shane did shouldn't have warranted such a severe sentence.
Feeling puzzled when she returned home, Amelia subconsciously grumbled to Albert Brown, "You remember that Shane guy, right?"
Seeing Albert nod his head, Amelia continued, "He got sentenced to ten years!"
Seeing that Albert wasn't the least bit surprised, Amelia was somewhat confused, "Don't you think the sentence is too long?"
"It's called justice, evildoers get their just desserts. Maybe other people were harmed besides you."
As soon as Amelia considered this possibility, she felt nauseated, "That Lin guy got off too easy!"
Albert pulled her into his arms, pinched her hand, and looked at her with downcast eyes, "Don't worry, there's a saying: it's not unavenged, it's just not the time yet."
Amelia found it strange, "Albert Brown, I didn't know you were into fortune-telling."
Albert laughed softly, suddenly pounced on her, "Yeah, as a fortune-teller, I feel like tonight is a perfect night for husband and wife to enjoy themselves—"
Amelia burst out laughing, and in the next second Albert silenced her mouth.
As her consciousness gradually became blurry, Amelia couldn't shake the feeling that she had forgotten something.
Never mind, if she could forget it, it probably wasn't that important.
When Albert carried Amelia to the bathroom to wash up after their lovemaking, the doorbell rang, and Amelia suddenly remembered.
"Oh no, it must be the restaurant people! Damn, I ordered a meal!"
Albert pushed her into the bathroom, "Be good, you wash up first, I'll go answer the door."
"Well, there's a surprise..." Amelia hadn't finished speaking when she withdrew her head back into the bathroom.
She touched her burning cheeks, thinking it must be because Albert's exposed chest muscles were too tempting.
Albert smiled and walked to the door to open it.
As soon as the door opened, a group of people came in, "Hello, is this Amelia Sanchez's home?"
When Albert nodded, the group got to work.
Within less than half an hour, the group left just as neatly as they arrived.
Albert looked at the transformed living room, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, his eyes filled with laughter.
At that moment, Amelia finally emerged from the bathroom, taking her time.
In the living room, the main lights were off, leaving only a slightly dim wall light on. On the rectangular dining table, a radiant rose bloomed brilliantly.
"Huh, where's the violinist?"
Amelia looked left and right but couldn't find the handsome violinist.
"I let him go."
When Albert first saw the handsome violinist, his face went dark.
"He left? But I paid for that!"
Amelia was somewhat regretful, but quickly let it go, "You wait for me, I'll change my clothes."
When she came out after changing her clothes, she held a CD in her hand, "Luckily, I have this."
Soon, elegant violin music flowed from the subwoofer.
Amelia reached out her hand, "Mr. Brown, could I have this dance?"
Albert's eyebrows curved, and he placed his hand in Amelia's.
"Do you like it?" Amelia looked at Albert's gentle eyes under the dim light, asking in a soft voice.
This was a scene the young woman at her company's front desk longed for. Amelia originally wanted to book a restaurant but didn't want other women to drool over Albert, so she simply made arrangements at home instead.
Albert's eyebrow raised, sensing something was off, but not wanting to dampen Amelia's spirits: "I like it. What made you think of inviting a violinist home?"
Could it be that Amelia found the guy handsome and was tempted by his looks?
Completely unaware of Albert's inner thoughts, Amelia said, "A candlelight dinner isn't complete without a violinist, right? How come you don't like the violin? What do you like instead? Tell me, and I'll change it for you next time."
Albert couldn't help but laugh, "You don't need to go through all that trouble, as long as you're here, I'm happy."
Amelia was also happy, "Even though I'm happy that you feel that way, I want to make you even happier."
She blinked, thinking about using the second plan tomorrow.
Albert slightly raised the corner of his eyebrow, Amelia's words softened the look in his eyes.
But overall, it gave him a strange feeling.
The next afternoon, just as Albert finished a video meeting, Amelia called.
Even Albert himself didn't realize that when he saw Amelia's name on the call, he was smiling.
"Amelia. Should I pick you up?"
Amelia felt weak all over and quickly leaned against a wall for support.
"No need, I'm already home. You come downstairs."
After hanging up, Amelia still felt dizzy.
How could Albert be so good-looking, and his voice so captivating!
As soon as Albert went downstairs, he froze in place.
Amelia was wearing a cool cowboy outfit, sitting on a dark blue motorcycle.
This was his first time seeing Amelia looking both cool and stylish.
"Amelia, what is this?"
When Albert's low voice entered Amelia's ears, it made her whole body tingle. She took a deep breath and patted the back seat, "Come on, I'll take you for a ride!"
Albert stared at the motorcycle's back seat and fell silent.
If he remembered correctly, taking a young lady for a motorcycle ride was a common tactic used by many guys to chase girls.
"Come on! I'll take you somewhere really beautiful and fun!" Amelia urged.
Even this sentence, this tone, was what guys would usually use to entice girls.
Albert took a deep, deep look at Amelia, then straddled the motorcycle, pressing himself tightly against Amelia's thigh. He then stretched his long arm around her waist, enclosing her in his embrace.
At this moment, Albert felt that this was quite nice.
As for Amelia, she felt goosebumps all over and her whole body went numb in an instant.
"Albert... can you... can you loosen up... just a little bit?"
Amelia felt so useless for stuttering her words.
Albert leaned his head on Amelia's shoulder, deliberately saying, "I can't. If I loosen up, I might fall off."
Amelia: "..."
Their conversation was nothing like what she'd seen!
Apparently, the blogger said that a good-looking young lady should be so moved that she would take the initiative to kiss.
But then again, didn't she seem a little less domineering?
Albert's lips were next to Amelia's ear, "Where are you taking me to play, Amelia?"
Amelia resisted the urge to scratch her itchy ear and quickly started the motorcycle, "You'll know when we get there."
If she lingered any longer, she was afraid she would lose her self-control and drag Albert back to bed.
Unbeknownst to Amelia, the smile on Albert's face hadn't faded as he watched her from behind.
Amelia took Albert to a secluded seaside spot.
She pointed to a blue tent already set up, looking somewhat smug, "Tonight I'll take you to watch the stars, the moon, and we'll see the sunrise tomorrow!"
Albert looked around and saw that the sandy beach was clean and, most importantly, there were few people around.
