Second Chances

Chapter 186 

“Huh? Where?” Emma asked. 

Liam tapped Emma’s nose. “You’ll find out when you get there.” 

Dream World was already fully open. During the last closed beta, Liam brought Emma to play once. However, one of the attractions, the parade, which Emma was most interested in, was not open last time. 

Liam had planned meticulously this time. There would be a parade and a fireworks show. He was prepared to bring Emma to play there again. 

The parade started at 7:30 p.m. 

However, when Emma and Liam arrived, it was already 7:40 p.m. 

Emma got out of the car and ran with Liam. “Hurry up, or we’ll miss the parade.” 

Emma had heard that the scenery at the amusement park at night was very gorgeous. The first person to see the top–notch fireworks above the castle could spend the rest of their life with the person they loved the most. 

Emma had never seen the fireworks of the Dream Castle in her previous life. She had always looked forward to seeing it with Liam. 

Seeing how anxious Emma was, Liam wanted to tell her the truth. He had arranged all of this. There was no need to rush. However, to surprise her, he did not say anything. 

When they reached the front of the castle, Emma was panting heavily. “Fortunately, it hasn’t started yet.” 

Liam looked at Emma mysteriously and smiled. “Wait for me here for a bit. I’ll go buy you the ice cream you like.” 

“Alright, hubby. Come back quickly,” Emma said. 

Liam bent down and kissed Emma’s forehead in public. Then, he hugged her again and turned to leave. 

Emma did not know what Liam had arranged. She just remained where she was and stared at the night sky with 

the others, waiting for the dazzling fireworks. 

At this moment, Emma heard someone say, “Why hasn’t it started yet?” 

“That’s right. It usually happens at seven–thirty. Is there a special event today?” another asked. 

“Are they preparing a special fireworks show?” a third voice suggested. 

“Don’t tell me it’s canceled,” somebody gasped.

Emma could not help but worry when she heard that. It could not be that coincidental. She thought, ‘The parade and fireworks couldn’t have been canceled, right?” 

Just as Emma was puzzled, a person wearing a mask and a silver suit walked over. “Emma, what a coincidence. We meet again. Why are you here alone? Where’s my brother?” 

When Emma heard the person’s voice, her good mood Instantly diminished by half. “Why aren’t you thinking about how to steal the Halls Group shares? Why did you come to the amusement park? It’s not for singles like you.”

Brad’s face darkened when Emma mocked him. He smirked. “You are indeed more confident now. But it’s no wonder. If you don’t act impudently now, you won’t have the chance in the future.” 

Emma looked at Brad coldly. “What are you trying to say?” 

Brad said sarcastically, “My father will not agree to you two being together. If he wants to stop it, no one can disobey him. Not unless Liam is willing to give up his inheritance rights. If that happens, if he quits, won’t everything in the Hall family still be mine? So I only have to sit back and enjoy the fruits of labor.” 

Brad’s expression under the mask was very smug. Suddenly, he asked, “But Emma, do you think my brother will give up the entire Halls Group for you? I don’t think so. Emma, do you see the woman beside my brother? That’s the socialite my father introduced to him. She’s also the person in charge of the amusement park. She has known Liam for a while. Do you know about it?” 

Emma knew that Brad liked to sow discord. She looked in the direction Brad had pointed out. 

Liam indeed had a woman by his side. She was curvy and very voluptuous. Unlike Emma’s slender figure and cold. demeanor, she was a sexy mature woman. 

But Emma was still expressionless. 

“What’s wrong, Emma? Did my brother hide it from you?” Brad was gloating. He wanted to see Emma sad. 

Unexpectedly, Emma’s next sentence stunned Brad. “Brad, you keep eyeing your brother every day. Do you have a crush on him?” 

“W–What are you talking about?” Brad’s expression changed drastically. He was still traumatized by those online homosexual photos of himself that Emma photoshopped. Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.

Emma snickered. She mocked, “If you have some strange fetish, you should give up on your brother as soon as possible. Liam couldn’t be more heterosexual. He doesn’t like trash like you.” 

Brad was so angry that he was about to explode. 

Emma rolled her eyes and got rid of Brad. She walked up behind Liam with her back straight. She wanted to see why Liam said he was going to buy ice cream but ended up chatting with another woman. 

10:59 Sun, 21 Jul 

However, when Emma heard Liam’s words, she was slightly stunned. Liam said, “The show is in ten minutes. I don’t want anything to go wrong. Remember, act natural. It’s a surprise for her.” 

Emma could clearly see that the woman opposite Liam who was being instructed had an extremely ugly expression. She had a crush on Liam. 

But Liam was only thinking about Emma. 

Emma stopped moving forward. She knew Liam would never disappoint her. 

Emma returned to her original position. 

Not long after, Liam returned with ice cream. “It might not be comparable to Savekine Restaurant, but it should be alright. Try it?” 

Emma took it with one hand and looked at Liam with sparkling eyes. 

“How’s it?” Liam asked. 

Emma replied, “It’s sweet.” Especially after knowing Liam left halfway to prepare a surprise for her, her tone toward him subconsciously became gentler. 

Suddenly, the sky lit up. 

Someone said, “It’s the fireworks show. It’s about to begin.” 

Couples held hands and stared at the top of the castle, hoping they would be the first to see the fireworks and receive the blessing of being together forever. 

Emma also looked on expectantly. 

At this moment, a luxurious three–story parade float decorated with countless red and white roses came over. 

The rich scent of roses caught Emma’s attention. 

Emma looked up and saw all kinds of cartoon characters on the float which was decorated with thousands of fresh 

roses. They danced cutely and greeted everyone. 

The others took photos with their phones and cheered. 

“Oh my God, it’s the parade,” someone shouted. 

“They’re coming over,” another exclaimed. 

Amidst the cheers, someone in a costume walked down from the float and approached Emma.

Emma knew that Liam would prepare a surprise. However, when the character and rose float came to her, her mouth still widened in surprise. 

The next moment, Emma and Liam were brought to the highest floor of the three–story flower float. There was a small turntable that was only big enough for the two of them to stand on. 

On it, in a gold flowery script, was “Liam and Emma, together forever“. 

Emma instantly understood. This was the surprise Liam was talking about. 

The surprise confession in the float gave them a higher position. They were lucky enough to be the only couple who could see the fireworks on the castle clearly. 

At this moment, Liam’s warm lips pressed against Emma’s ear from behind. His voice was low. “Emma, get ready. The fireworks are about to begin. Three, two, one– 

The countdown ended with a whoosh.
