How to Tame a Villain Character-Chapter 226: The Sweet Lights

Now Harry led Claudia out of the orphanage building after playing with the orphanage children and talking casually with Fiona. Claudia was still curious about what other surprise Harry wanted to give her because Harry was still pressing his lips tightly. Her curiosity was getting hotter, she wondered what other beautiful places would be suitable as a date place for them in the orphanage area.

"Harry, where else are you taking me? Is there really a beautiful place in the orphanage?"

"Did you forget what you designed for the exterior of the orphanage?"

Claudia frowned and squinted. "I added several trees to use as swing facilities for the children. Then, I also added a fountain and a larger garden."

"Did you just add a normal garden?"

"Yes, I’m pretty sure I didn’t add anything else."

For a moment Harry stopped his footsteps in front of a garden maze. Claudia widened her eyes and her eyes immediately fell on Harry, who still looked innocent.

"Wait a minute! Since when did I want to make a maze in the garden behind the orphanage?"

Harry laughed out loud as he stroked his wife’s head. "I designed the maze for you."

"What? Since when did you design it?"

"When the orphanage was still under construction, I handed over my design to the contractor to add a maze to the garden. You don’t need to worry. This maze won’t make the children get lost. Even though this maze still hasn’t added various decorations for the children, I have added unique decorations for you."

Claudia became increasingly curious about what her husband’s designed maze would look like. Because in her mind, every maze would definitely look scary and make it easy for children to get lost. With trembling hands, Claudia held her husband’s hand.

"If we get lost, you have to take responsibility!"

"I dare to take responsibility because you are my wife."

Harry led his wife confidently into the dark maze. However, every step they took, the park lights automatically turned on as if following their footsteps so they wouldn’t get lost easily.

At first Claudia wanted to scold her husband for creating a facility that scared all the orphanage children, but the reality was very different from what she imagined now. Apart from the garden lights which turned on automatically every time they passed, there were replica flower decorations attached to the walls and butterflies surrounded by small lights. Every time they passed a dead end, they saw a small fountain equipped with colorful lights. Seeing the results of Harry’s design in terms of creating a very beautiful maze, her eyes twinkled as she looked around her, she smiled a mischievous smile as she waved Harry’s hand.

"This is the first time I really like a maze. You are good at turning a maze that was scary in everyone’s eyes, now into a maze that is fun to play in."

"So, you’re still annoyed with me because I was so cruel to build a maze in the garden behind the orphanage?"

Claudia shook her head quickly. "I will withdraw my words. I actually thank you because you added your creative ideas to make the orphanage more beautiful and comfortable for the children to live in."

"Do you know the reason why I made a maze with the concept of lights turning on every time we pass?"

"Because you don’t want everyone who enters this labyrinth to get lost?"

"These lights will guide us on the right path. Just like you suddenly get lost in the middle of the road if you don’t have me by your side, these lights will accompany you so that you don’t get lonely and lost on the road."

Hearing the romantic statements expressed by her husband became more and more intense, her cheeks turned red and her heart continued to pound. "Didn’t you promise that you would always be by my side? I won’t get lost as long as I’m always by your side."

Harry kissed the back of his wife’s hand for a moment. "Since I’m done taking you around the labyrinth, how about we go back to the orphanage?"

Suddenly, twinkling fireflies were seen flying in the garden behind the orphanage. Claudia’s eyes lit up as she looked at all the fireflies now surrounding her and her husband.

Harry was also happy to see the fireflies which looked beautiful and he was very grateful to the fireflies who had made the smile his wife showed look even sweeter. It felt like he didn’t want to go back into the orphanage because he didn’t want to miss this rare moment.

"Harry, these fireflies are very beautiful. Do you like looking at fireflies?"

Harry chuckled as he hugged his wife from behind. "Actually, I really like it and have always wanted to see it with you. But, it’s very strange that fireflies appear in autumn."

Claudia patted her forehead. "That’s right. Fireflies usually appear in summer. It’s very strange, I don’t see any fireflies in our garden."

"But, it’s okay if fireflies suddenly appear now because thanks to them, you look even cuter."

"Can you stop teasing me all the time?" Claudia smiled shyly as she pushed a strand of hair behind her ear.

"Because as usual your tastes and mine are the same. Since I was little, I really wanted to see fireflies with my mother. Before my mother died, my mother promised to take me to the forest to see fireflies in summer."

For a moment, Claudia stroked her husband’s cheek with a look of pity. "Now I can replace your mother to see fireflies together. You don’t need to be sad anymore just because you’re lonely. Next summer, I want to take you to see fireflies when we have free time." freēnovelkiss.com

Indeed, his wife was the only one he could rely on the most for a long time. Harry felt his heart flower more and more every time he heard motivational sentences about love from his wife. His smile became even happier after hearing the sweet words his wife said.

"I didn’t make you a substitute for my mother. But, you are my life partner who I have loved the most in my life."
