By midnight, the streets had become almost empty.

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfQSyELP2zc

After walking for nearly an hour, Methon and Valindra reached a small roadside lodge. It was the only place open at that hour, surrounded by trees and silence.

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIgEagTbcP5

"We'll stay here until morning," Methon said.

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmV06iXri0N

Valindra nodded.

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFOf3ZxdKsB

"Works for me."

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8p0DmPEfyP

They walked inside.

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡie4JZnnMYp

An elderly manager sitting behind the reception desk looked at them carefully before smiling.

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg4OC0FyGEM

"One room?"

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcvsYeKj8uf

Methon answered calmly.

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8DkIHTOjAp

"Yes."

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAkZ4j3a3QA

The manager looked at Valindra and then back at Methon with a knowing smile.

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTJMeGYJ7OC

"Young couples usually come here after midnight."

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT7iEiBnpVp

Valindra almost choked.

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡof569VEVNr

"What?"

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Rs8i1yCEM

"We're not a couple!"

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCtzjf3F4Gt

The old man laughed.

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh8EjyCXxUt

"Of course... everyone says that."

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwiN8ajFq2r

Methon remained completely expressionless.

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡydGaThFGuP

The manager leaned closer and whispered,

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡihAdxHyTXW

"Boss..."

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT2g4AQF1E3

"You've got good taste."

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2JjMN2UJIT

Methon glanced at Valindra for a second before replying with a straight face,

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLGfgB5ZWjE

"I know."

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh4S33RvOAP

Valindra's eyes widened.

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbMIqMT9hfE

"Methon!"

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDNDtLwPmlB

The old man laughed loudly while handing over the room key.

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiXyjIM4AKs

As they walked upstairs, Valindra punched Methon lightly on the arm.

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw1eeXAM0Me

"What was that?"

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg255zwRkD3

He looked innocent.

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwozGFXFMws

"What?"

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Yq72neC5H

"You just agreed with him!"

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjtGJLXBGlD

"I didn't deny it."

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiCMBKv6LPE

She stopped walking.

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Q2tvaUMOT

"You are impossible."

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt15S1DOQtX

A small smile appeared on Methon's face.

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbixX51CuJw

It was the first genuine smile he had shown in days.

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3cTryNCH9z

Valindra noticed immediately.

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCh0AhHRi8E

"There!"

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5d07T9stxA

"You smiled!"

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡepvIKy5ef6

He cleared his throat.

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZkzmGIMfH0

"I didn't."

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt9tcSaRo2o

"You absolutely did."

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1vQkimOP0A

She laughed.

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIR7YCjpr7k

"I finally made the grumpy CEO smile."

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLk6W5qi0xX

Methon stopped walking.

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaxGu69C6rH

"How do you know I'm a CEO?"

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIKGejGyjZn

Valindra blinked.

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8RZ01125wf

"I don't."

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdMP5HF5WFc

"I was just guessing."

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyhmLgUqtcK

He looked surprised for a moment before quietly opening the room door.

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEjR9EpWbZB

It was a small room with a single bed, one chair, and an old window overlooking the empty road.

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2bPE00nnl8

Valindra looked around.

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9M1NgCIs2T

"One bed."

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTfCmzpzIna

She looked at him.

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1dtWEwp98i

"You sleep there."

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN4kLOfmslU

"I'll take the chair."

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT24PoIjUnn

Methon shook his head.

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYowWVGBeox

"No."

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM4RkAO5KJ2

"You take the bed."

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGtTOz5d1Wi

"I'll stay awake."

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGqyuemib1k

She folded her arms.

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSuVBif3KWP

"Don't act like a hero."

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeQmisRWUeq

"And don't worry."

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWbt1FvcdKO

She laughed.

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡve6B0eAuSq

"I'm not going to accuse you of kidnapping me."

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo8gXETQUOz

He couldn't help smiling again.

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBwywTYGkH3

She pointed at him proudly.

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNoqDJipcGr

"There!"

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyP9HRitbDk

"Second smile."

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP7QszeQauo

"You really should smile more."

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCs3DFXAbIn

"It suits you."

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSpSF9xQ00M

For a brief moment...

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY38GWmKejR

The room became silent.

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmUYzdJ1vd2

The sadness in Methon's eyes hadn't disappeared.

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡACLzZYl8tI

But somehow...

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSvQBkuAtoe

It didn't feel as heavy anymore.

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJFLV2eTVRA

Valindra sat cross-legged on the bed and looked at him seriously.

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡktuSxJXhQ9

"Okay."

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQvcdxu8DZE

"Enough jokes."

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlloROJ2lc2

"Now tell me."

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk8srBoRujh

"What happened to you?"

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAXR8bySZow

Methon lowered his eyes.

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIAyLRJTucZ

For the first time...

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFXq09LwK57

He was about to tell someone the truth.7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK2iPQeUKza
