Richard could hear the sound of her drinking water, and he suddenly felt an inexplicable attraction that made his body turn hot.


    He looked up and saw her slender and pale neck that was slightly raised, making him want to turn into a vampire and take a few


    bites.


    Ang could feel that the man behind her was looking at her. After she finished. drinking, she turned her head and asked, “When


    will we leave?”


    “When the rain lets up a little,” Richard replied.


    “If we don’t leave soon, it''ll turn dark, and the mountain roads will be more difficult to drive through. If you don’t want to drive, let


    me drive. Ang was eager to try as she had owned a driver’s license for around five years and was very confident.


    “No.” Richard closed hisptop, refusing to allow her to drive.


    Ang was rather annoyed. Is this guy doubtful of my driving skills?


    Richard got into the driver’s seat from the back seat. Looking wild and attractive in a ck trench coat, he oozed masculine


    charm in every move.


    After darting a second look at him, Ang turned to look out the window. She dared not take another look at him, as though she


    feared she would fall for him if she did so.


    Richard handsomely turned the steering wheel with deft hands. Subsequently, therge SUV charged out of the curtain of rain


    and moved along the road toward the mountains.


    It was raining heavily outside the car. As big raindrops pattered heavily against the car window, Ang couldn’t help feeling


    somewhat restless. It was as if even her breath were full of the man’s smell as she stayed with him in such a cramped space.


    There was a brief silence as neither of them spoke.N?velDrama.Org holds ? this.


    “Is there any music to listen to?” she asked him.


    “No,” he answered her.


    Ang was speechless for a moment.


    Doesn''t this guy have any other hobbies?


    Richard drove steadily and not too fast.


    Having nothing else to do. Ang had no choice but to look at the rain outside the car window to kill time.


    Suddenly, Richard mmed on the brakes.


    Startled, Ang looked up ahead and was immediately stupefied for a few seconds. Before they knew it, there was a mudslide


    ahead that blocked their way back to the base. “No way!”


    Speechless, she looked at the mudslide. It wasn’t severe, but the mudslide happened to block the entire road. Some debris even


    flowed down the road, making it impossible to open up the road to traffic tonight.


    “What should we do now?” Ang turned to look at the man.


    “We have no choice but to stay the night in town, Richard replied before looking left and right for a ce to make a U-turn back


    into town.


    Ang let out a sigh. | guess we can only me our bad luck for this. | hope there’s a hotel in town, she thought to herself as


    she watched the man turn back to town.


    There was another silence on their way back. Just then, it urred to Ang that there was only a street in the center area of


    the town. Could there be a hotel? Don’t tell me there isn’t even a hotel!


    Indeed, there wasn’t any hotel here. There was only a small three-story inn, which was the only lodging in town.


    After parking the car outside the inn, Richard was the first to step out, whereas Ang stayed in the car, waiting. Staring at the


    heavy downpour outside the car, she found herself caught in an awkward situation for a moment. There isn’t an umbre. How


    am | supposed to get out of the car? I''ll get drenched to the skin in a few minutes after doing that.


    Just when she was hesitating, she saw Richard taking an umbre from the back seat before opening it and walking toward her.


    When the car door opened, she looked at the man holding the umbre. Standing in a charmingly erect posture, he stretched out


    his hand toward her.
