“Woohoo! I won!”

Philip stopped right next to Barbara’s kayak. The curve of his lips was sweet. His eyes were full of love.

“Where’s the finish line anyway?”

Barbara turned her head with bright sparkling eyes. “Didn’t you see it? It was back there.” She pointed her finger behind her back.

Philip let out an amused laugh. “Okay, I admit I lost. My wife is good. at rowing now.”

Barbara laughed too. She felt silly for being happy about her victory. Even though it was clear, Philip deliberately gave in.

“It’s such a beautiful day, Phil. So is this view. Look at the water could it be so clear? It feels like I’m skating on crystal.” Barbara ruffled the water with her paddle. “Look! The water is like crystal drops.”

Philip tilted his head, watching how his wife admired the ocean.” there is no rubbish and no pollution. There is only you here with m That’s what makes this view beautiful.”

Barbara turned her head with her eyebrows pressing against her forehead. Seeing how warm Philip’s eyes glowed, her heart tingled.

“Are you sure it’s just me? Look around us. Those majestic mountains, cute houses in the distance, and the sky that’s like a painting.”

“Yes, but you are the most beautiful of them all.”

Barbara snorted slightly. “I think I’ve used the right spell to charm you. That’s good. Keep falling for me.”

“Always.”

Philip looked in the direction his wife was looking, then another. Realizing the presence of other people, he quickly said, “Babe, how about we go over there? It looks like the view is no less beautiful.”

“Come on!”

Barbara rowed again. Seeing that, Shania snorted. “Where else are they going?”

She increased her speed. When she caught up, she smiled with

satisfaction.

“Wow, the view from this side is even more beautiful,” she said

between gasps for breath.

Hearing that, Barbara’s smile shrank. She glanced behind her th sighed in disbelief. “You’re following us? This sea is so wide. Why don’t you check other spots?”

“How fun is it to play alone?” Shania said lightly.

“Aren’t you with Poppy?”

Shania raised her eyebrows. With an innocent face, she shrugged her shoulders. “She was having fun alone with the guide. I didn’t want to

disturb them.”

“Then you chose to come here and disturb us? Don’t you remember that my husband and I are on our honeymoon?”

Shania pursed her lips. “I thought we agreed to be friends and travel together?”

Barbara rolled her eyes and sighed in disbelief. Before she could speak again, Philip stroked her shoulder.

“Be patient, Babe. Don’t get emotional. Our moment could be ruined.

How about we continue over there?”

“Yeah, but I want it to be just the two of us.”

Philip nodded. “Yes, just the two of us. A sane and self-aware person wouldn’t follow a couple on their honeymoon everywhere.”

Shania was taken aback. She didn’t expect that her efforts to get

Philip’s attention would actually suffer a setback.

“Do you feel that my presence is annoying?”

Philip and Barbara canceled rowing. When they turned around, Shania let out a laugh.

“Jeez! I didn’t mean to bother you guys. I just want to socialize and

have fun.”

Unexpectedly, Shania went to Philip’s side. “So, since when have y been kayaking? You look good.”

Philip glanced up from under a furrowed brow. But a second later, h gaze returned to his wife. “Babe, we haven’t had time to take photo here. The twins will nag us if we forget to send a report about our fun today.”

Barbara’s eyes brightened. “That’s right. Let’s take a photo.” She took her phone from the bag tucked into the kayak strap.

“Need help?” Shania drove around to Barbara’s side.

“Yes. I need your help to stay out of the camera. Can you stay there?” Barbara extended her arm to Shania’s side, looking for the right angle so that Philip and the view behind her appeared on the screen. “Smile,

Phil.”

The corners of Shania’s lips twitched. Her chest felt tight. However, she didn’t want to give up yet. She returned to paddling the kayak, parking next to Philip.

“How about now we take a photo of the three of us? I also want to get to know the twins. Who are they? Are they your nephews?”

Barbara quickly lowered her phone. She couldn’t stand seeing the faces of the three of them on one screen. However, when she was about to respond, Philip said, “They are our children. What do you

want to introduce yourself to them as? A nosy woman who disturbs. their parents’ honeymoon?”

Shania flinched. “Children?”

“Yes, Barbara and I have been dating for a long time. But only this year did we get married.”

Shania blinked then sighed in disbelief. “She doesn’t look like she’s ever given birth.”

“My wife is extraordinary, right? I think, even in fifty years, he will still be the same.”

Barbara smiled when she heard Philip’s story. In order to avoid suspicion, she quickly rowed.

“Come on, Phil. Let’s look for another spot. The kids will be happ they get lots of pictures from us.”

Philip smiled slightly. “Come on!”

Meanwhile, Shania was flabbergasted. Her eyes flickered to see Philip walking away from her.

“They already have children?” she sighed disappointedly. However, after a brief moment of contemplation, she shook her head.

“But that doesn’t matter. Even though he is a widower, he is still the

man I want. I can’t let him go.”

When Shania was about to row, a wave came from behind. She turned around, thinking it was Poppy who was approaching. But apparently, her best friend was still far behind.

“Is my feeling wrong?” Her brows furrowed.

After shrugging her shoulders, she faced forward. At that moment, her eyes widened. A large fin was gliding across the surface of the water, heading towards Philip and Barbara. Then next to it, there were three smaller fins, but still quite large.

Shania’s jaw dropped. She’didn’t dare move. Meanwhile, Barbara rowed happily.

“Thank you for driving that woman away, Phil. I’m glad you sided with me and chose loyalty.”

“My wife is you, not her. Of course I have to side with you.”

Barbara chuckled. However, seeing a fin and a large black shadow appearing and then disappearing in the sea, she froze. Her twink eyes melted her petrified tension.

“Phil, are there sharks here?”

Philip raised his eyebrows. “Sharks? I’ve never heard of those

creatures here.”

Barbara swallowed hard. “But earlier… I saw its fin.”

“Fin?” Philip looked around. Shania was also frozen, just like Barbara.

Philip’s expression turned serious. “Did you see correctly?”

Before Philip finished speaking, something big jumped out of the water. Barbara spontaneously screamed, leaning away. Losing balance, her kayak turned upside down. It crashed as the huge monster hit the water.

“Barbara!”
