Chapter 69 - Caspar is busy at home (1/2)

”Is something bothering you, Madam?” Ben asked when Finland entered the car with a rather sour face.

”It's okay, Ben. Everything's fine.” Finland shook her head and smiled, ”Is Caspar still at home?”

”Yes, he was very busy today at home,” said Ben, smiling meaningfully.

”Oh, did he work from home?” Finland asked in surprise.

”He canceled all his meetings and work today, because he was very busy at home.”

Finland did not understand how Caspar could be busy if he wasn't working.

Did Caspar cook for her? But Finland clearly told him that she would have dinner with the LTX people at De Lune Restaurant.

Hmm... weird.

They arrived at the Rose Mansion at around 9pm. As usual, the atmosphere was quiet, and it was rather dark in the courtyard. Finland thanked Ben, got out of the car and walked to her pavilion to place her belongings before looking for Caspar in the main house.

When she walked through the rose garden, she heard soft music starting to play. She paused and tilted her head to find the source of the sound.

Hmm... classical music.

Who would play music at this hour? Was it the neighbor next door? Maybe Caspar would buy the house next door because they played music loudly at this hour, she thought to herself.

Suddenly, several tiny lights lit in the garden in front of Finland. The girl was surprised to see it. She did not remember that there were lights there before. She walked closer to examine the lights when suddenly more lights lit up in front of her.

She was amazed. Slowly Finland walked forward, and as she walked, more lights were lit... It almost seemed like an endless show of lights.

The garden began to brighten and she could see that the lights were placed between the roses, like the sparkling lights on the Christmas tree.

She moved forward and more lights lit in front of her. She finally continued walking towards her pavilion and more lights were turned on in front of her. It also illuminated the road in front of her. The lights stayed on even after she walked passed them. She felt like she was in a fairytale world, or at the light festival... it was really beautiful and breathtaking.

Strangely, the sound of classical music that she had heard earlier became increasingly clear as she walked towards her pavilion.

Maybe the music came from...

When she arrived in front of her pavilion, Finland saw a group of musicians in a mini orchestra playing music in the courtyard. There was a conductor directing them, and a piano player, cellists, violinists, flute player, and even a harpist. What was with all this?

The surrounding little lights that sparkled around the garden and pavilion made the atmosphere very romantic.
