The party progressed in a lively and harmonious atmosphere and no one noticed the time passing. When the announcement was made that fireworks will start in 5 minutes, everyone was surprised that it's close to 11 PM.
The grownup guests emerged out of the villa and stood in the garden, facing the ocean, to enjoy the show.
The kids were sleeping on cots in the toy room. They wanted to watch fireworks, but by 9:30 PM all of them fell asleep while playing, so nannies moved the little ones to sleep on cots.
Outside…
"Where are Max and Liz?", Mia asked while looking at the crowd gathered. Quentin and Brianna were right next to her and Hunter, but Liz and Max disappeared about half an hour ago.
"Here we are…", Liz said while walking toward Mia with Max behind her. Liz was adjusting her hair and was slightly out of breath, and Max had a satisfied smirk at the edge of his lips.
