    Chapter 89


    After dinner, Phillip took Be on a tour around, finally reaching the top floor for a distant view.


    “Now it’s getting dark and you can’t see the view very clearly. But during the day, you can see beautiful


    flowers, streams, and distant mountains. Be, you should definitelye and check it out when you


    have the time.” Phillip said.


    “Sure.” Be nced at the time, her voice gentle, “It’s gettingte, I should head back.

    “Don’t leave.” Phillip was a bit reluctant, “Can you stay a bit longer?”


    “I’lle to see you next time.” Arabe said.


    Seeing Be about to leave, Phillip quickly signaled to his butler, Brodie, who immediately understood


    his intentions and discreetly ordered the servants to prepare.


    Just as Be reached the first floor living room, led by Romeo, all the lights in the vi suddenly went


    out.


    “What’s going on?” Phillip feigned ignorance, “Why is there a power outage all of a sudden?”


    “Weird, we’ve lived here for years and have never encountered this situation before! Let me go check


    what’s wrong. Hang tight, I’ll be right back.” Brodie said,


    Brodie yed dumb and quickly went downstairs.


    “Romeo, take Be to the sofa for a while.” Phillip then ordered a servant nearby, “Go find some


    candles and emergency lights.”


    “Sir, didn’t you collect some really nice emergency lights before?” A servant asked pretentiously.


    “That’s right, you guys go look for them.” Phillip also found an excuse to leave.


    The living room was left with just Romeo and Be.


    Romeo smiled. The vi clearly had a backup generator. So even if the power went out, there wouldn’t


    beplete darkness. Was the old man deliberately making a chance for them to be alone?


    Be waited for a long time and checked the time, “It’s already half past eight. Let’s go.”


    If she stayed toote, her parents would worry.


    Romeo pulled her into his arms, “It’s still early. Stay with me a little longer.”


    “I’ve been with you for a long time already today.” Arabe said.


    “Just a few hours, not enough.” Romeo held her even tighter, “I want to stay a little longer.”


    Be was speechless. Why was he so clingy?! He used to be so cold.


    “Let go of me. What if grandpa sees.” Arabe said.


    “He’ll be even happier if he sees us.” Romeo said.


    Upstairs.


    Brodie saw Philliping up and quickly whispered, “Sir, over here!”


    Phillip hurried over, squeezed next to him to look downstairs, “How’s it going, any progress?”


    “They’re just chatting, no substantial progress.” Brodie said.


    “Romeo, you blockhead! It’s so dark in the room, why isn’t he kissing her?” Phillip thought for a


    moment, “Is the atmosphere not romantic enough? Have someone take those petal lights and LED


    candles down there.”


    “Alright.” Brodie said.


    Soon, the living room was decorated with beautiful petal lights and LED candles on the tables,


    suddenly creating a romantic ambiance.


    “Hold on.” Arabe stopped a servant who was setting up candles, “Tell my grandfather, I’m ready to


    leave.”


    Faced with this sudden situation, the servant was a bit flustered, “Miss, the entire house is out of


    power, could you wait a bit longer before leaving?”


    “It’s already toote. I need to go.” Arabe said:


    “But, the front door is locked. You can’t get out.” The servant said.


    Arabe was puzzled at this.


    “Each door is a special electronic smart door. If there’s a power outage, the doors can’t be opened.”


    The servant said.


    “Don’t these doors have USB ports? You can just use a power bank to charge it.” Arabe offered a


    solution.
