Chapter 276 - The Most Beautiful Sunrise (3)

Acting on instinct, Lance moved closer to Lily, he slowly lifted her head to make it lean on his shoulder. Lily made a low raspy sound then she positioned her self in a more comfortable position. Lance looked at her with a gentle smile on his face then he turned to look at the endless darkness in front of them.

The tranquility of the night is deafening although there were hooting of an owl in the distance and chirping of crickets surrounding them. There were an overflowing of unsaid emotions. One was certain but disheartened while the other one is uncertain yet promising.

Lance stayed in that position and didn't dare to fall asleep. He was true to his word that he would take care and look after Lily. He wouldn't let even a mosquito approach her.

Soon it was dawn, the gray sky turned gold. Lance realized why there is such a thing as viewing bench in that area. Because in that exact place where the two of them is sitting is the most beautiful sunrise you would ever see.

Lily was awakened by the ecstatic chirping of birds. As soon as she opened her eyes, she was mesmerized by the breathtaking beauty of the faint golden glow that starts to send light in the vast forest thru the mountain range.

Lily realized that she was leaning at someone's shoulder. She raised her head and saw that it was Lance, she was about to say something but Lance put his fingers on her lips afraid that her nagging would ruin the atmosphere.

Lily remained silent while staring at Lance who is staring the sky as its hues transforms into a different color. No one knows what the two of them were thinking.

As soon as the clouds were visible and the sky turns blue, Sarah reached the Viewing Deck. Earlier while Lily was still asleep, Lance sent Sarah a message and told her to pick up Lily. He was taking precautions, if someone saw the two of them together came out of nowhere early this morning rumors might spread and it might ruin Lily's reputation.

"Mr. Kho, thank you for taking care of Miss Lily." Sarah said as soon as she reached the Viewing Bench and saw the two of them. But she was moved to see Lance's appearance, he looks like he didn't slept all night. While Lily looks like she had a good nights sleep despite their her unusual situation.

Lance smiled at Sarah. "You're here, please take Miss Lily back to the hotel. She needs to rest before the filming start." Lance said casually.

Then Sarah takes Lily away. Lily looked at Lance then to Sarah with confusion. She wanted to ask something but didn't know how to start. Lance didn't even looked at her. So, Lily followed Sarah dispirited.

When they reached the hotel, she started asking Sarah some questions.

"How did I ended up in there?" Lily asked with furrowed brows.

Sarah looked at her amused. "You don't remember anything that happened last night?"

Lily shook her head.

Sarah sighed and sit beside her in the bed. Lily was done taking a shower and she was about to take a nap before the filming start. Sarah told her about her getting drunk and went missing. She told her that Lance help her look for her and he was also the one that found her at the viewing deck and how she refused to go back at the hotel and insisted that she will sleep there.
