Love Burned, She Rose Unscathed

Millie paused, "Babe, it's our first trip abroad together. Aren't we going to take a selfie?" Murray replied indifferently, "I'm not into photos." After that, he closed his eyes to rest.

Millie bit her lower lip, feeling like a bucket of cold water spilled over her excitement.

The Maldor Beach welcomed them with its vast blue skies and seas. Immediately after they disembarked from the helicopter, a staff member greeted them.

After checking in, a bellhop took care of their luggage. Looking tired, Murray headed to the elevator, and suddenly, his gaze landed on Corley.

Corley spotted Murray immediately and strolled to him with a somewhat teasing smile, sunglasses hanging from one hand, exuding a carefree charm. "Hey, here for a getaway?"

Unamused, Murray replied, "Yeah, what a coincidence, huh?"

Corley smirked, "Maybe it's fate. But you're a bit slow. I got here a day earlier."
