Laura’s giggle fills the air, while her hand stay in the water, as the dolphins in it, play around her fingers.

Laura takes her hand away from the water, while she watches in reverence of the dolphin moving away from her. “I have only envisaged this, and even if I did want to come, I guess I couldn’t find the right time,” Laura speaks to Adrian whom stays behind her.

“I’m glad you’re able to now,” Adrian responds.

“It’s all thanks to you Adrian. I’m grateful.” Laura speaks, with her gaze soft on him.

“Laura, I have informed you and I’m doing it again,” Adrian responds to Laura, by taking a step closer to her. “You do not have to thank me. You have done me the biggest favor I could ever ask for by marrying me and you didn’t ask for anything in return, what kind of a man would I be if I can not give you all I can to show my appreciation.” Adrian continues, whereas Laura has her gaze upward staring at Adrian. “More so, do not forget you have become a billionaire’s wife.” Adrian says, as with his last statement comes a smirk from him.
