At night, Demos lay in bed and couldn't sleep.

Looking sideways at Karet, and seeing that she had fallen asleep with her eyes closed, he gently got out of bed, pulled open the floor-to-ceiling glass doors, and walked out onto the spacious second-floor terrace.

Demos sat down on a wicker chair in front of the pool, lit a cigarette and took two puffs, then fell into deep thought.

Thinking back to the pill incident before bedtime, Demos began to realize how messy his expression and demeanor could have been.

What happened to me at that time?

Why did you mess up because of a box of medicines, showing anxiety and suspicion that you have never felt before?

After a few puffs, Demos finally understood that the series of emotions he showed were all due to his cherishing of Carette.

Maybe happiness came too quickly, and he was afraid that the pace of its departure would be the same as when it came.

Demos admits that he forced Carette to accept him.

The day after she fell out of love, he forcibly shoved himself into her already scarred heart, regardless of her mood and thoughts at the time.

Suppose, once she recovers from her heartbreak, will she choose to leave resolutely?

Also, it's about her and the Athena jewel.

Could it be that the true medium that brought her to unite with herself, as Cali feared, was the legendary gem?

Demos was frightened, confused by the many questions that had arisen in his mind.

He took a few more puffs of his cigarette, then pressed the butt into a citrine ashtray on top of the rattan high table.

The calm surface of the pool reflected his youthful and handsome features, as well as the dull mist on his face.

The bed in the bedroom moved, and Carette shifted her body to her side twice.

In fact, she never fell asleep.

When Demos got up to leave, she quietly opened her eyes and muttered in a sad mood:

Forgive me, Demos......

——

Early in the morning, Caret woke up early.

Instead of staying at the villa yesterday, Demos drove his black Escalade to his studio early in the morning.

Later in the evening, he spoke to Carreta on the phone, telling her that he had some business to do and needed to stay in the studio all night. With Noah by his side, she didn't have to worry.

It's been a few days since the drug evasion incident.

The unhappy memory faded into her mind, and she believed that Demos had also escaped from the dim shadow.

Today, Carette was in a good mood, as warm and bright as the sun that was half rising in the clear blue sky at the moment.

After a hasty breakfast, she planned to go to the courtyard in front of her to fix the lawn.

This high-end duplex villa with a courtyard, garage and perimeter is a thousand square meters, and Carreta really can't bear to leave all the daily care to Noah.

He was a good worker, and he regularly brought a few servants from the Dark Temple to clean up and down the entire villa, but he was still half a student, and Kareta didn't want him to delay his studies by taking care of his master's family wholeheartedly.

Carreta retrieved a bag full of garden pruning tools from the savings room, and with one hand she pushed open the door of the villa and walked out to the lawn.

Suddenly, her body froze in place from extreme shock.

"Boom", the bag fell off her palm and fell to the ground, smashing with a sharp crashing sound.

She was shocked by the sight in front of her.

The courtyard is inexplicably full of lawn roses, and the fiery red color is like a burning flame, full of infinite vitality and vitality. From the moment she burst into Carret's blue eyes, her heart was filled with excitement.

It seems to be infected by these blooming flowers, and the breeze blows in front of you with a warm temperature. A fragrant fragrance came to her nose, and Carette suddenly felt refreshed.

Looking at those flowers, I saw the petals layer by layer, delicate and beautiful under the sun, like a shy girl.

Roses have never been planted in this villa, so why did they ...... overnight?

Kareta was suspicious. But in any case, at this time, her heart was not frightened by this vision.

The electronic doorbell rang and rang.

Kareta temporarily put away her suspicions, ran to the openwork metal gate, and looked out for a moment.

A handsome young man stood outside the gate, he turned out to be the mermaid prince, Triton!

It was like seeing a long-lost relative, and Kareta was pleasantly surprised. She hurried to open the door, but was completely stunned by the sight behind him as the door opened.

In the community, all the grass is full of fiery roses, and the dense clusters of flowers are like a dazzling red carpet, connecting the green belt of the entire community.

"Won't you invite me in and sit down?" ”

Triton didn't seem to care about this magical scene, and looked at the surprised and speechless Carreta and asked with a gentle smile.

"Hug ...... Sorry!"

Carette finally realizes that she has lost her temper in front of the guests, and she blushes and apologizes. "Please come in, please come in!

She didn't have time to think about it any more, so she invited Triton into the living room of the villa, and then made a pot of Earl Grey tea, and brought two plates of cookies and cake as a treat.

After taking a seat on the couch, Carette looked Triton up and down excitedly. His appearance has not changed much from that of the undersea temple at that time, but at this moment, he is wearing a student's formal attire, and his mental outlook is more full.

"Is it really you, Triton? I can't believe that since we parted at the ends of the earth, there is still a chance to see you again!"

Carette couldn't hide her longing for a long time, and said with a little sadness in her joy.

Terry smiled.

"I have been reinstated as a human since the end of the naval battle, and am now a regular student in the secondary school of Byron College. ”

"Wow! I envy you, you can be so free......"

Karet's eyes unintentionally lowered in admiration, and she saw a deep scar looming from the cuff of Terry's left hand.

It was precisely because of the excessive force before that he hurt his screw that at this time this scar had formed a thick vermilion keratin, which protruded at a high distance from the skin of the arm, and it would be difficult to disappear for life.

Kareta knew that the scar was the wound he had left on his body to help her divide herself into one.

"Triton, thank you for everything you've done for me......"

Moved by the memory, Kareta whispered to him.

From her drooping gaze, Triton noticed the scar on his wrist, but he didn't care, but comforted her:

"Don't say that! Seeing you today, any effort I put in is worth it. Karette, you're in much better shape and more beautiful now than you were when you were at the bottom of the ocean. ”

Carette was a little embarrassed by his praise, smiled and lowered her head and asked him:

"By the way, how did you come to see me today?

"I've been asked to bring you a surprise. ”

"Huh?"

Kareta was stunned by Triton's solemn expression.

"You might as well turn on the news desk on the TV and take a look. ”

Suspicious, Kareta picked up the remote control and turned on the TV, and then turned on the central news station.

Scenes are being played inside, although the locations are different, but the focus of the news to be highlighted is only the same, that is, the streets and alleys of these places are all blooming with fiery roses.

The bright flowers stood under the clear sky, and the dew fell in the light of the sun, which instantly amazed Karet.

Isn't this scene the same as the one seen in the courtyard and in the green space of the villas in the entire southern district?

"The overnight blooming of roses in the Greek islands has attracted the amazement of the citizens and the panic of some religious organizations. At present, naturalists and botanists are still unable to come up with a reasonable explanation for this mystery......"

At this time, the TV screen turned and switched to the female anchor in the news live broadcast room reciting the news speech.

This, is it-

As a Titan, Kareta was sensitive to guessing that this stroke of genius must have been the work of her kind. But which god could it be, and what was the purpose of such a good-natured joke on me in the human world?

"Want to know the answer?"

Terry asked Kareta with a smile, as if he had seen through the doubts that existed in her heart. Suddenly, there was more sparkle in her bright blue eyes.

"Could it be...... Does it really have anything to do with me?"

Triton stood up and held out his right hand to Karet.

"Hold my hand. ”

"What?"

"Take me by the hand and take you somewhere. ”

Terry was Calette's lifesaver, and she naturally believed in him. Although his father, Poseidon, the Aquaman, had done the same thing to her, Carreta would never believe that he had done harm to Triton.

So she didn't think about it, and decisively handed her right hand over.

The moment Triton pulled up Karet, he cast the spell of "Space Movement". The bodies of the two gods disappeared from the villa in the blink of an eye, and reappeared outside Demos's oil painting studio in the blink of an eye.

"How did you bring me here?"

Carette froze, and while looking strangely into the studio, she asked Triton:

"Could it be that you saw Demos before you came to me?"

"Let's go inside. ”

Terry became mysterious, and ascended the steps of the doorway one step ahead of Carret.

The door was opened by Noah, one of Demos's close attendants, who smiled at each other when he met Terry, as if he had some kind of tacit understanding.

It's weird, what the hell are the two of them doing...... The whole atmosphere seems weird...... Where's Demos?

With questions, Carette also walked into the studio, feeling a little nervous in her heart.

"You're here, Miss, Wang is in the studio, please come with me. ”

Noah politely led Carette and Terry through the way, leading the two of them to the door of a room on the first floor of the studio.

"Miss, please come in. ”

Noah pushed the closed wooden door of the room open, and then stood respectfully outside the door with his hands behind his back.
