Chapter 1321: Chapter 1321: Nancy Maddox’s Confession!_1

Twenty minutes later, everyone arrived at the seaside and came onto the beach.

They looked far into the distance.

The stars filled the sky, a crescent moon hung high, waves churned, and the night scene was as beautiful as a painting.

Since Divine Emperor Island is located in the southern hemisphere, it is currently summer here.

The sea breeze was warm, making everyone feel very comfortable.

Nancy Maddox exclaimed, "What a beautiful night view, nowadays you can’t see so many stars in the city anymore!"

Julia Stewart also said, "Yes, this place is truly a Paradise Manor!"

"Mr. Yeager, didn’t you say there was another part of the program, what is it exactly?"

Prajna Bates asked a question.

"Come on, tell us what it is!"

Olena Sean also asked.

Lionel Yeager turned to the King of Creation and said, "We can start now!"

"Alright!"

The King of Creation nodded and then spoke a few words into the intercom.

It was only a few minutes wait.

Suddenly.

Whoosh...

A sound came from the distant sea.

Then, a trail of fire shot up into the sky, and with a loud "boom," it exploded overhead, dazzling and brightening the night sky!

"Is that fireworks?!"

Gina Stern shouted excitedly.

"Mr. Yeager, is this the surprise you prepared for everyone?"

Prajna Bates also asked excitedly.

"Yes."

Lionel Yeager nodded and said, "A week ago I contacted the King of Creation and asked him to prepare.

How could New Year’s pass without fireworks."

Before he could finish speaking!

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!

Boom, boom, boom!

Explosive sounds echoed from the sea!

One after another, fireworks shot up into the sky above the sea, blooming!

Multicolored, various kinds of fireworks turned the entire night sky into a sea of fireworks, picturesque and poetic!

Everyone lifted their eyes to look at the distant night sky, watching the dazzling fireworks, feeling excited in their hearts.

Lionel Yeager was also deeply moved.

The love of his life by his side, his best brothers in front of him, this is indeed one of life’s greatest joys.

Protecting his love, protecting his brothers.

Perhaps, this was the meaning behind his quest for strength.

Gina Stern suggested, "Sisters, let’s make a wish!"

"Sure!"

The women all nodded in agreement.

As the women were preparing to make their silent wishes,

Gina Stern placed her hands to her lips in the shape of a megaphone and shouted toward the sea, "In the new year, I want to become more and more beautiful, to create even better songs, and to produce even more beautiful movies!

And moreover, I want to stay with Mullen forever!"

Rebekah Stone chuckled and said, "Fifth Sister, who makes wishes like that?

Shouting them out loud won’t make them come true."

Gina Stern waved her hand, "Ah, but you have to shout out your wishes loud and clear!"

Prajna Bates also shouted toward the sea, "In the new year, I want to make myself better and better, to quickly improve my cultivation and strength!

I want to protect Mr. Yeager, and not just rely on Mr. Yeager to protect me!"

Julia Stewart shouted as well, "In the new year, I want to make East Beauty Pharmaceuticals known throughout the nation, seize the national market, then continue to expand the overseas market!

I want to be with Lionel Yeager for life, till we grow old together, and never to part!"

"In the new year, I want to unite the north and the south!"

"I want to lead Violet onwards, towards the pinnacle of the Dark World!"

"I want to become more beautiful, have a better figure, and lead the Vermilion Bird Palace to become stronger and stronger!"

"I want to continue to study medical skills, to become the world’s best doctor, to create a world without disease or disaster!"

The women opened their hearts and loudly made their own wishes.

Towards the end, the women seemed to feel that it was too undignified, and all started to laugh loudly.

Although Lionel Yeager and the other men didn’t shout out loud, they also made wishes in their hearts.

The rain of fireworks lasted for nearly half an hour before it finally ended.

Everyone took a stroll by the seaside for a while, then they returned to the palace to rest.

After Lionel returned to his room, he first took a shower to sober up, then sat cross-legged on the bed preparing for cultivation.

Relaxation was essential, but he couldn’t neglect his cultivation practice.

However, just as Lionel had entered the meditative state and had been cultivating for a while, a knock came from outside the door.

Lionel suddenly awoke, looking towards the door with a puzzled expression.

What’s going on?

Who could be looking for him so late at night?

Lionel rolled out of bed, walked over, and opened the door.

Upon opening it, he saw a lively figure standing at the entrance.

"Moris?!"

Lionel was momentarily stunned.

He had wondered if it might be Senior Sister, Third Senior Sister, Sister Betty, Prajna Bates, or Elinda who would come to find him.

After all, he had a substantive relationship with them.

But what he had never expected was that it would be Nancy Maddox who came to find him.

The woman seemed to have just taken a bath, wearing a silver-gray silk sleepwear that outlined her graceful figure.

Her smooth, jet-black hair cascaded down, setting off her glowing, fair, and delicate face.

The woman’s smell of alcohol had not yet dissipated, somewhat tipsy, her cheeks flushed with a touch of redness, her eyes a little hazy.

During the dinner earlier, he had seen her drink quite a bit, as if she deliberately wanted to get drunk.

Lionel retracted his gaze and asked, "Moris, what are you here for?"

Nancy Maddox’s gaze darted around, her voice tinged with nervousness, "I... I have a question about cultivation I’d like to ask you... "

"Ah?"

Lionel looked at the woman oddly, "You seem drunk, why don’t you rest first and I’ll guide you tomorrow?"

"No... that won’t do!"

Nancy shook her head vehemently, "It’s an urgent issue!"

"Is that so... well, okay then, come on in."

Lionel nodded, let the woman in, and then closed the door.

However, at the moment Lionel turned around.

Nancy threw herself into Lionel’s arms and held him tightly.

"Moris... what is this..."

Lionel tensed all over, unsure of where to place his hands.

Nancy looked up slightly, gathering her courage to speak, "Mr. Yeager, I like you..."

Lionel smiled and responded, "I like you too, we are good friends after all..."

"It’s not that..."

Nancy quickly shook her head, "I’m not talking about the kind of liking between friends, but the kind between a man and a woman..."

Upon hearing her words, Lionel’s heart skipped a beat.

In truth, he had long been aware of her feelings for him.

After all, there were many occasions when she had made her feelings for him clear.

But he had always been unsure of his own feelings for her, so he did not respond.

Nancy appeared to throw caution to the wind as she slowly continued, "Mr. Yeager, actually, I have liked you for a very long time.

If it weren’t for your help, my muscular atrophy would never have been cured, and I might already be dead by now.

You gave me a new lease on life, a second chance at living.

I began liking you then, but I was not sure about my feelings at the time and thought it was mere admiration.

But later, when both the Stewart and Maddox families faced trouble, and I was nearly violated by that scum Donald Stern, you saved me, you saved the Maddox family.

It was at that moment I realized I truly liked you and wanted to be with you..."

"Moris..."

Lionel sighed inwardly.

Those events were from long ago, but thinking about them now, they felt as if they happened only yesterday.

"Mr. Yeager, let me finish what I have to say."

Nancy interrupted Lionel and continued, "Yet, when I acknowledged my feelings, I became panicked.

Because you were Julia’s fiancé, and as her close friend, I should not harbor any other thoughts towards you.

So, I tried to keep my distance from you, to avoid finding you, to stop thinking about you.

I thought by doing so, my feelings for you would fade.

But to my dismay, the more I tried, the deeper my feelings for you grew.

I kept remembering you, remembering all the good you did for me, and this feeling was driving me nearly insane..."

At this point, Nancy’s eyes reddened, and tears welled up.

Lionel opened his mouth, trying to say something, but ultimately he didn’t know what would be appropriate to say.

Actually, Nancy already occupied a very important place in his heart.

Otherwise, he would not have thought of inviting Nancy to come here to celebrate the New Year in the first place.

But, he too was concerned about Julia Stewart’s feelings, so he had never responded to the woman’s affection.
