Chapter 1832
Apart from them, there were also couples hiking, as well as families along with their children. The atmosphere was
quite merry.
“There’s a temple on top of the mountain. Perhaps we can pay our respects when we reach there,” Jared stated.
Not long after they started to hike, they arrived at a slope, which not only challenged one’s legs but their arms as
well since they would have to hike with the support of the branches by the sides. After climbing up the slope, Jared
naturally offered his hand to Ellen.
Seeing him extending his hand over, Ellen was dazed for a moment before bashfully reaching for his hand. As her
petite hand was grasped by the man’s massive palm, a force dragged her upward, allowing her to borrow the
power to ascend the slope. However, as her shoes were not designed for hiking, she suddenly slipped.
“Ah!” She let out a shriek. Fortunately, Jared had yet to unhand her, and the moment he sensed that she was going
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtto fall, he exerted an even greater force to lift her up. Fearing that she would fall down, Ellen subconsciously
wrapped her arm around the man’s waist as her face snuggled against his chest.
Thereupon, the two firmly embraced each other on the sixty-degree slope. As Ellen was shocked, she hugged Jared
especially tightly, while he comfortingly patted the woman in his arms as he encouraged, “It’s okay. I’m holding
you.”
After she regained her stance, her face grew extremely red. After all, it was her first time holding a man this tightly,
let alone the fact that the man was her very boss, but by no means did she do it on purpose.
Upon Jared’s forceful pull, Ellen safely made it up the slope. With that, they continued to traverse through the
captivating, primitive scenery and fresh air. As a chilly breeze blew over, they were highly invigorated, since such a
sensation couldn’t be felt in the city. Ellen felt exceptionally relaxed, as the atmosphere helped her forget all her
troubles. Besides, hiking with her handsome boss was nothing but thrilling
At the side, there were a few smooth boulders. Jared sat on one of them and pulled out two water bottles from his
backpack and delicately twisted open the cap before handing one of them to Ellen.
Feeling spoiled, Ellen extended her arm to receive the bottle and said, “Thank you.”
“You’re welcome.” Jared, too, was happy. It only took him a call for her to willingly join him on the hike.
After taking a couple of sips of the water, Ellen put down the bottle and took out her phone to snap pictures. of the
surrounding scenery. At the same time, Jared’s phone beeped as a notification popped up. He then put down his
bottle to check out the message.
After taking a few more photos of the scenery, Ellen suddenly felt thirsty again. She then grabbed an opened bottle
and started drinking.
Followingly, Jared put his phone back into his backpack. When he reached for his bottle the next moment, he
realized that the bottle he drank from disappeared as there was only a bottle that was sipped a few times left.
Then, he was stunned to find Ellen drinking from the bottle he drank from. Taking a huge gulp, he pretended as
though nothing happened and grabbed Ellen’s bottle before naturally chugging down the water.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmEllen was completely clueless about the awkward matter. Otherwise, if she knew that she was drinking from Jared’s
bottle, she would have died of embarrassment.
Accordingly, Jared took out some bread and snacks. Among the snacks, a box of chocolate, which he brought over
specifically for Ellen, stirred up her desperation. “Here. Women’s favorite.”
“Did you bring this just for me?” she asked out of surprise.
“Mm-hmm.” Jared nodded.
Enlivened, Ellen grabbed one of the chocolate pieces and handed it to him. “Do you want one? It tastes really
good.”
In response, Jared accepted it and munched it. Although it wasn’t his favorite dessert, he still complimented it.
“Indeed.”
At that moment, two women behind them reached where they were. When their gazes fell upon Jared, their hearts
palpitated. They saw this perfect specimen of a man back when they were at the foot of the mountain, but never
expected to bump into him again here. Coincidentally, there was a boulder beside them, which they then walked
over to and sat on.
