Chapter 454Chapter 454 Fortunately, I Didn’t Missed You
After a moment of tenderness, there was a knock on the door from outside. It was the waiter delivering
the food.
Aletta withdrew from his embrace and pulled him to the seat.
They enjoyed a romantic and cosy dinner together, accompanied by the beautiful view outside the
window.

restaurant with the intention of going to the top of the highest mountain on the island.
Jason glanced at the elevated location and asked with a smile, “How do we get up there?”
Aletta pointed to a spot in the sky and said, “See those bright spots? That’s the cable car. We’ll take the
cable car up to see the night view.”
Jason raised an eyebrow but had no objections.
After all, he was willing to accompany Aletta in whatever she wanted to do.
They set off and arrived at the entrance of the attraction. Jason bought the tickets and then took Aletta
onto the cable car.
After a while, the carriage gently swayed as it slowly started moving up along the cable.
The surrounding scenery gradually expanded before their eyes.
The houses below were brightly lit.From this angle, the night view was truly magnificent, and even the stars in the sky seemed within
reach.
Jason thought Aletta simply wanted to bring him here to enjoy the night view.
However, when they reached a midway point, they noticed another carriage on the adjacent cable car,
descending.
The distance was close, they could see a couple inside that carriage as well.
The man’s voice could be heard clearly from here.
“After we complete this ‘Lover’s Cable’ together, we can hold hands and be together for the rest of our
lives!”
Jason seemed to realise something, turning his head slightly and raising an eyebrow as he looked at
Aletta.
His gaze seemed to ask, “Don’t you have anything to say?”
Jason stares made Aletta feel uneasy, and she averted her gaze for a moment.
She had this little idea in mind.
Originally, she didn’t plan to say it.
After all, it was nothing more than a superstitious saying passed around by everyone.
However, during those few days of being out of touch, she became even more aware of the
significance this person beside her held in her life.
So, she was willing to do it for him, to experience it once.But having her little idea exposed right in front of her was quite embarrassing…
Aletta hung her head, trying to play dumb.
Jason sensed her thoughts and, upon seeing her reaction, let out a soft chuckle, finding this kind of
woman a bit adorable.
Regardless of whether or not she had planned it in advance, at least in this moment, he received the
signal she was transmitting.
His heart felt like it had been soaked in warm water.
Jason extended his long arm and held onto Aletta’s waist, exerting a bit of force to bring her to sit on
his lap.
Aletta exclaimed in surprise and instinctively looked at Jason. “What are you doing?”
Jason didn’t answer her question.
His eyes were gentle as they met hers, and the deep affection in his eyes enveloped her directly.
“Do you want to be with me for a lifetime?”
His deep voice was especially alluring in this enclosed space.
Aletta, seeing him ask the question so directly, decided not to hide anymore. She looked straight into
his beautiful eyes, nodded, and said, “Yes, I have wanted that for many years, even before, but so
much has happened since then, and we were apart for so long. How could I not want it now that we’ve
finally reconciled?”
Her tone was slow, every word and sentence exceptionally clear as it reached his ears.Seeing her expression, Jason’s heart softened.
The person in his arms had held this desire for so many years, but at that time, he had let her down so
much…
Jason tightened his hold on her waist, leaned in closer, and pressed his forehead against hers.
Unable to restrain himself, he said, “Wasn’t I quite a bastard back then?”
Aletta didn’t deny it. “Yes, a real jerk!”
His past indifference had made her unwilling to think about him for a long time.
Jason chuckled. “Then why are you willing to accept me now?”
Aletta also curved her lips and raised her hand to cup his face.
“Of course, it’s because you have been behaving well! If you had remained as cold as you were before,
I wouldn’t have given you a chance…”
The man arched an eyebrow. “Is that all?”
Aletta nodded and countered, “What else?”
Jason smiled.
He had initially wanted to hear her confess more to him, but it seemed it wouldn’t be so easy to get her
to fall into his trap!
Nonetheless, Jason didn’t force the issue.He held Aletta in his arms tighter and said, “Fortunately, I made a good impression later on; otherwise, I
would have missed you, wouldn’t I?”
Aletta smiled and adjusted her position, snuggling in his embrace.
What she didn’t say was that she had a favourable impression of him from the first time they met.
Perhaps Jason had already forgotten.
But she remembered clearly that their first encounter was shortly after she had been recognized as a
member of the Rogers family.
At the time, Gail and Jane pretended to take her to meet their friends in the entertainment industry and
went to a club..
In the end, due to her conservative nature and unfashionable attire, she didn’t fit in the crowd.
Those people were in cahoots with Gail and the others and wouldn’t miss the chance to tease her. As a
result, she ended up drinking quite a little of alcohol.
Later, when she felt uncomfortable and was preparing to leave early, she unexpectedly encountered a
drunken man outside the private room who nearly dragged her away.
It was then that Jason intervened and saved her.
He still remembered that back then, the man had a cold and ruthless expression as he swiftly kicked
the other man to the ground, saying coldly, “Get out of my way.”
During the early years of their marriage, she often thought that perhaps that night he had been blocked
by that man.Saving her was just incidental.
But at that time, after enduring the malice all evening, his entrance was like that of a saviour, etched in
her memory with a single glance.
Later, when they met again, it was when she found out he was her fiancé…
Aletta smiled as she thought about this.
They say first impressions are beautiful, and now, Jason has that beautiful impression in her eyes…
Jason didn’t know what she was thinking, but he could see the smile on her face at that moment.
Amidst the joy, there was a sweetness that filled his autumn-like eyes, as if stars were falling.
His eyes deepened, and he couldn’t help but say,
“I think this so-called cable car ride as lovers should be more than just ordinary. It needs a touch of
ceremony.”
Interrupted by his sudden words, Aletta raised her gaze to look at him and asked in confusion,
“What kind of ceremony?”
Jason’s gaze stared deeply into hers, his voice lowered as he said, “For example… if we were to kiss
at the mountaintop, it would make it more enduring!”
As he finished speaking, he lifted her chin and planted a long and passionate kiss on her lips.
Aletta’s cheeks flushed, and she instinctively closed her eyes to meet his kiss.The man tenderly explored and caressed her lips, his movements gentle yet possessive, plunging them
into a continuous abyss.
She raised her hand and placed it on his shoulders, drawing herself closer to him.
The lingering and tantalizing process, devoid of excessive desire, felt as if they were expressing their
fondness for each other through this means.
