Divorce Me I'm Done Serving You (Ayla and Troy) novel Chapter 725

Ayla sounded calm now. "I climbed pretty slowly, so I'm not that tired."

Draven didn't say anything. Only then did Ayla glance at him. The moment she did, their eyes met. He must have been staring at her the whole time.

His gaze made her uneasy, and she quickly looked away. "Did you come here specifically to find me, or did we just run into each other?"

"I came to find you," Draven said. Right now he was afraid of letting Ayla out of his sight.

"Didn't we agree I'd have some time alone?"

"I haven't seen you in a long time."

"A long time?" That description sounded very strange.

Draven even gave the exact time. "Five hours and fifteen minutes."

Ayla was speechless.

"I only feel at ease when I see you," Draven said. Earlier, when he saw Ayla break down, it had hurt him deeply. If she hadn't said she wanted some time alone, he would have stayed by her side the entire time just to make sure she was okay.

Ayla looked out at the distant scenery. "This is your territory. I'm not going to get lost."

"That's true," Draven said with a quiet laugh. Ayla looked much better now, and that reassured him. He stood beside her and looked at the view with her.

After a while, Ayla decided it was time to go back. Being alone here quietly with Draven put pressure on her.

"I'm going back."

"Alright."

Ayla had just taken one step when Draven grabbed her wrist. She looked at him in confusion.

Draven glanced at the long path below them. "I'll carry you down."

"That's not necessary. Your leg is still injured."

"It's just a small injury. Don't worry about me." Draven stepped down a couple of stairs and looked back at her. "Come on. Let's head back earlier."

Ayla didn't climb onto his back. Instead, she tried to walk past him. But the moment she passed by him, her body suddenly felt weightless. Draven had picked her up in his arms.

"If you don't want me to carry you on my back, then I'll carry you like this."

In the end, Draven carried Ayla back.
