Seeing the light in her eyes suddenly dim, Lucas' expression grew a bit tense.
Why was it so painful for her to be with him?
The atmosphere between them grew even colder.
“Well, what are you waiting for? Let’s go,” Lucas said in a low voice, turning to open the door.
Aveline quietly followed him, not bothering to think about where they were going or what they were going to do.
The weather was pleasant, and as Lucas rolled down the car windows, the cool autumn breeze swept in, easing a bit of the tension in Aveline’s heart—but only just a little.
However, when Lucas stopped the car at the base of a mountain, confusion flickered across Aveline's face.
"Why did you bring me here?"
She stepped out of the car, looking at the golden-hued mountain with a puzzled expression.
Lucas glanced at her coolly. "I thought you didn’t care?"
Aveline pressed her lips together, staying silent.
His tone softened slightly. "We’re going hiking."
Aveline was speechless.
She looked at him in shock, then glanced back at the autumn-covered mountain, wondering if she had misheard.
Hiking, at this time?
Lucas had already started up the steps. When he noticed she wasn’t following, he turned back and asked, "What are you standing there for? Don’t feel like hiking?"
Aveline started to say something but then reconsidered and kept quiet.
No point in arguing; better to stay quiet.
