When the New Year bells rang, it was only nine oâclock at night in the Maldives.
To create a better New Yearâs atmosphere, Bernard Arno spent a lot of money to buy a lot of fireworks, which he took to the bay by boat to light.
Colorful fireworks soared from the shore and soared high into the sky, exploding in midair, emitting dazzling pyrotechnic light while simultaneously reflecting off the sparkling shoreline. The beautiful view of the sea and sky was truly breathtaking.
Claire looked at the fireworks on the beach outside the window and muttered absently: âItâs been a long time since Iâve seen fireworks this beautifulâŚâ
Elaine Ma took out her phone to take a photo, grumbling and sighing, âWho wouldnât have said that? This city has banned the burning and setting off of fireworks for years. I almost forgot what fireworks were. Theyâre so beautiful, especially when theyâre so close, or when theyâre set off at sea.â
Jacobâs pupils reflected the fireworks that had shrunk many times over, and the wrinkles on his face were filled with ripples of happiness. He smiled and sighed, âWhen I was little, my favorite thing to do was set off firecrackers.â
âBack then, our family was well-off and had little money. During Chinese New Year, I always spent all my New Yearâs money on various firecrackers. Every day, many children chased after me. Sometimes I gave them one or two firecrackers to smash and wipe, and they were very happy. They even nominated me as their commander-in-chiefâŚâ
Elaine Ma didnât understand his nostalgia and emotions, and only teased him sarcastically: âTsk, with Christopher Willson here, can you still be the commander-in-chief? Then the commander-in-chief must be your brother, right?â
Jacob waved his hand and said casually, âThatâs not what I meant. You donât understand. Weâre different ages, and weâre not on the same team. Heâs the commander-in-chief of his team, and Iâm the commander-in-chief of mine.â
Elaine Ma was eating melon seeds and asked with a smile: âWith your brotherâs little idea, have they thought about recruiting your team?â
Jacob slapped his thigh and said, âHey! Youâre right! He always wanted to recruit me to his team, but I didnât agree. I got beaten up by him because of this.â
âIâll say what I said.â Elaine Ma snorted, âChristopher Willson has been a coward since he was a child. He always wants to take advantage of others.â
Jacob nodded and sighed, âHe was spoiled by my mother from a young age. He wanted everything, whether it was his or not.â
Elaine Ma asked curiously, âWow, thatâs strange. Everyone in the family loves your younger brother, so why does your mother love your older brother more?â
Jacob smiled bitterly and said, âIâve never been as obedient as my sister since I was little. My sister is smarter than me and can please my mother. Besides, in this family, no one can treat everyone equally. If one side is a little higher, this side is a little lower, thatâs natural.â
Elaine Ma deliberately teased him: âYour sister has been naughty since she was little, and you have been a coward since you were little. You two complement each other.â
Jacob ignored her temptation, but suddenly said with a little regret: âHey, I donât know how they spent the New Year and how they spent it.â
Elaine Ma was a little angry: âOh, youâre still thinking about it now? You really have time.â
âHow can you say that?â Jacob muttered in a muffled voice, âAfter all, weâre blood relatives. Even though weâre not in contact, I still miss her. Horiyah did make some money a while ago, but now sheâs out of work because youâre causing trouble.â
Elaine Ma said in disbelief: âHe deserved it! Who told him to do those underhanded things? Iâm contributing to society by exposing him.â
