The CEO’s Betrayal: My Ex-lover Has Triplets

Chapter 50- Fireworks and pleasure

Male staff in a white and black uniform walked up to Tessa and Aaron and bowed, saying, Welcome, Sir and Ma’am. Let me escort you to your suite.”

Aaron grabbed Tessa’s hand and laced their fingers. They followed the staff who led them down a hallway with expensive marble floors and golden chandeliers on the ceiling. He brought them to a presidential suite with a living room, balcony and bedroom.

“Dinner is already served on the balcony. You can enjoy your food while enjoying the view of the ocean. I hope you enjoy your weekend,” the staff presented with reverence.

“Thank you,” Aaron said and led Tessa to the balcony.

Dinner was set up on a nicely decorated table. As usual, he drew out a chair for Tessa and helped her sit. Then he grabbed his chair and sat next to her, instead of opposite her. He proclaimed huskily, “I want to be close to you. The table is too long, I can’t even do this…”

He placed his hand on Tessa’s thigh and caressed it agonisingly slowly.

Tessa blushed and replied, “Ok. I don’t want to shout when talking too.’

Aaron smirked, noticing how her face had become a shade darker. He withdrew his hand and poured her a glass of champagne.

The two of them had a pleasant dinner. When they looked at the ocean, they could see moonbeams shining on the water and as the cruise ship moved, a gentle breeze would hit them occasionally.

Aaron suddenly stood up and walked into the suite. It didn’t take long for him to come out but Tessa realised he had a guitar in his hands.

She raised an eyebrow when he stood a few meters away, just next to the rails of the ship and played a few strings as if he was testing the guitar. She asked, “Can you play the guitar?”

“There’s nothing that I cannot do, love,” Aaron replied with a co cky smirk.

Tessa rolled her eyes. She said, “Ok, are you going to sing for me?”

“Yes. I want to sing a song for you. This is my dedication to you, Tessa. Losing you taught me a very painful lesson. It’s not a mistake I will ever repeat. I love you with all my soul and I can confidently say you’re my one and only woman.”

He then began to play a song with his guitar and Tessa recognized the tune as John Legend and Meghan Trainor’s song called ‘Like I’m gonna lose you’. Starting with the male verse, Aaron sang while looking into her eyes.

“In the blink of an eye, just a whisper of smoke
