HappyNovelChapter 744 Sebastian could tell she'd just woken up. "Is now a good tto cin?" he asked softly.
Citrine nodded and stepped aside to let him in. Sebastian gestured for the room service staff behind him to bring in the breakfast.
Once the staff had left, Citrine asked, "Have you eaten yet?" "I ha―" Sebastian started, but changed his mind mid-sentence. He coughed awkwardly and admitted, "Actually, no, not yet." He looked a little sheepish and avoided meeting her eyes.
Citrine didn't think too much of it, assuming he genuinely hadn't had breakfast, so she invited him in. "Con, let's eat together." Sebastian nodded.

"Why aren't you eating?" she asked with a smile.
Sebastian looked up at her, sincerity in his eyes. "I was waiting for you." It was such a simple thing to say, yet somehow, it made something warm bloom in Citrine's chest.

"Let's eat," she said, breaking the moment.
Seeing her pick up her fork, Sebastian finally reached for his own.
Citrine was genuinely hungry and tucked into her food eagerly, barely pausing to breathe. Sebastian, on the other hand, seemed more interested in watching her than eating his own meal.

For a brief moment, she wondered if she was being left out-if she hadn't been their boss, she might have felt excluded. The thought flickered and faded.
Suddenly, Sebastian spoke up. "I heard there's an island nearby Azure Isle. Supposedly gorgeous, and only an hour away by yacht. Want to check it out?" "Azure Isle?" Citrine echoed.
He nodded.

Sebastian glaneed at her. The sundress showed off her pale shoulders and arms, and for a m second he was speechless. He quickly checked the weather of his phone, grabbed a jacket from his closet, and tucked it into his bag.
"Ready when you are," he said with a grin. They headed out together and boarded the yacht for Azure Isle.
An hour later, they arrived at their destination.
As they stepped off the boat, Sebastian "What dolyoked around and asked, do you think? Not bad, right?" Citrine nodded, taking in the rugged cliffs and lush greenery. "It's beautiful." Compared to Whisperwind Cay,
