“Mr. Beltran left last night after having the Hangover–Relief Broth. He didn’t stay over, so you’ll have to go run alone.”

Aveline thought Charles talked way too much. She shot him a dark look. “I’ve told you before, you don’t need to tell me about Xavier.”
Charles nodded, “Yes, Ma’am. I was just worried it wouldn’t be safe for you to go running alone.”
Aveline couldn’t be bothered with him anymore and turned to leave.
It was only a ten–minute run from Parkview Estates to Oceanfront Boulevard. When she got there, Sebastian was al- ready warming up.
Seeing Aveline, Sebastian smiled. “Good morning.”
Aveline usually wore a jacket or loose clothes, but today she was in a more form–fitting workout outfit, and it was clear she had a great figure.
Sebastian was also in workout gear, and you could tell his tall frame was powerful, clearly from working out regular- ly.
Aveline smiled back. “Morning, Mr. Harmon. Let’s start running.”
With that, she didn’t stop, just got onto the sidewalk and continued her run.
Sebastian started running too, and in a few strides, he was right beside her. “So? The ocean view is pretty amazing, right?”
Aveline nodded, “Yes, it’s beautiful.”
When she was renovating the villa at Parkview Estates, she had come here a few times to see the ocean view, but nev- er in the morning.
The beautiful scenery, combined with the fresh morning breeze, was especially pleasant and wonderful.
Sebastian glanced at Aveline. “Running by the sea is more refreshing than running in the neighborhood.”
Aveline agreed, “Yes, I’ll come here to run whenever I have time from now on.”
Sebastian smiled slightly and said nothing more.
After running for nearly an hour, Aveline got tired and slowed to a walk.
Sebastian naturally matched her pace, walking with her and glancing at her from time to time.

Aveline kept her eyes on the ocean view, looking relaxed and at ease. Her profile was well–defined, glowing beauti- fully in the soft sunlight.
After walking for a bit, Sebastian said, “Let’s take a picture. I’ll post it on my Social Feed for Fiona to see.
That one, ever since she ran with me that one time, she’s been slacking off and refuses to run again.”
Aveline laughed. “Well, I haven’t seen her slack off on drinking.”
Sebastian was amused by Aveline’s comment and burst out laughing.
Then he took out his phone and found a spot with a great ocean view.
Aveline stood behind him, tilting her head up slightly and smiling at the camera.
Sebastian took the picture, then took two more from different angles, as well as a solo shot of her.
To return the favor, Aveline offered to take a solo picture of Sebastian, so she reached out for his phone,
“Mr. Harmon, let me take one for you too.”
Sebastian agreed and handed her the phone.
Aveline held the phone, aiming the camera at Sebastian. He was leaning one hand on the railing, with the ocean and blue sky as his backdrop. A slight smile played on his lips as he looked at the camera with a gentle gaze.
This would be a good picture.
Aveline took the shot.
At that moment, she heard a familiar, annoying woman’s voice from her left,
“Oh, what a coincidence, Mr. Harmon, sister.”
Aveline didn’t even glance at Josephine. She looked at the photo on the phone and said to Sebastian as he walked
over:
“Take a look, I did a good job, right? I think it’s very handsome.”
