Today is their last day in Lumeria.

After lunch, they went to every bridge in this romantic city—Pont Neuf, The Lovers’ Bridge, and Pont Alexandre III. Walking on the stone-paved bridge surfaces, they felt a unique sensation interwoven with strands of romance and history; in the evening, they went to The Lumeria Opera House to experience the world’s top opera art, savoring the profound artistic heritage of the city.

For someone like Sienna Thornton, who has lived in a modern metropolis for over a decade, a city as ancient and mysterious as Paris is deeply enticing. If possible, she even dreams of settling in such a city with her loved one.

"In these short four days, I feel like I’ve traveled back in time, back to post-Renaissance Franland. I’m really looking forward to the upcoming journey in Britione, and Italora!"

On the short flight to Veridia, Sienna Thornton tightly clung to Simon Forrester’s arm, her head gently resting on his shoulder, excitedly describing her feelings about Lumeria and her expectations for the next three weeks of travel.

When talking about things she likes and is interested in, she, like all little girls, had eyes that sparkled with enthusiasm, speaking non-stop, and her body instinctively drew closer to the person she liked, a lively demeanor completely different from her serious demeanor at work.

Simon Forrester remembered when they first met. She was wearing a mature suit, adorned with a sharp makeup look, relentless in negotiations, yet carrying a gentle, radiant smile throughout.

Back then, he wondered how a woman could be so beautifully contradictory. Later, he learned that she was famously known in the industry as "A Gentle Blade," and upon seeing those four words, he found it incredibly fitting.

Quentin Thorne’s genes are indeed strong. Is this trait of smiling with concealed sharpness, hard to read, something that will also be passed on to future generations of the Forrester Family?

Simon Forrester was startled by his own thoughts, and the arm holding Sienna Thornton instinctively tightened.

.

The journey from Lumeria to Veridia takes just a short seventy minutes, with security checks and pre-boarding waiting, the entire trip took less than three hours, thus it was only two in the afternoon when Simon Forrester and Sienna Thornton emerged from the airport.

Simon Forrester’s friend came to pick them up to stay near a castle by the vineyard. 𝒻𝘳ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝒷𝘯ℴ𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝑐ℴ𝑚

Yes, they would be staying for the next two nights in a medieval castle with vineyards and rose trellises.

Besides wanting Sienna Thornton to experience living in a castle, Simon Forrester primarily wanted to finalize the red wine for their wedding.

The person who came to pick them up was a true Franland native, although calling him Simon Forrester’s friend would be more accurate to refer to him as the import procurement director for The Imperial Court Club’s beverages.

In the car, the person said, "I’ve already had talks with the people from Latour, Silverwood Estate, and Petrus Cellars. Since it’s for our young master’s wedding, it must be top-notch. Upon hearing this, they all expressed their full support, especially Silverwood Estate, which agreed to allocate their remaining 1947 vintage ChBlanc for us."

Simon Forrester nodded, holding Sienna Thornton’s shoulder, and smiled, "You could have handled this, but I mainly wanted to bring my wife to try the taste and layers of the red wine, so I made this special trip; it was a bit of trouble for you."

Hearing him refer to her as "my wife" in front of his friends, Sienna Thornton’s face instantly turned red, as if a splendid flower had bloomed in her heart.
