Chapter 1407: Her Matters, Weighing on His Heart
He was praying for a miracle to happen, praying for tto pass slower, praying for Kevin to be faster! The heavy rain showed
signs of weakening; the raindrops falling on the car's hood and the splashes of water gradually grew smaller, and the force was not
as strong as before. The whole world had becconsiderably quieter.
Tristan glanced in the rearview mirror; the road behind them was completely blocked, but the mountain seemed to be gradually
stabilizing. Three meters away, the road was piled with rocks and soil, with only a few small branches and mud continuing to slide
down. They couldn't breathe a sigh of relief yet, as no one knew the situation on the mountain.
At that moment, Kevin, along with a team of professional firefighters, was rushing towards them in several helicopters. It would

pressed against Tristan's warm chest, and as the rain stopped, she seemed to hear the sound of his heartbeat.
With each beat, strong and powerful, her heart gradually calmed down. The rain had completely stopped, and Monica looked up
from his embrace, his face gentle. She slowly turned her gaze to see the dark clouds dispersing in the sky, and the dazzling
sunlight shone through. For a moment, the sunshine blinded her eyes.
The world was silent, and she seemed to hear the sounds of insects and birds. If it weren't for the blocked roads in front and behind
them, she would have thought it was all just a dream. Tristan's deep gaze gently fell on her face, seeing her tense lips finally lift
into a slight smile. Then, the girl's silvery voice rang in his ear-
"The rain has stopped! The sun is out!" She looked at him joyfully, "We are saved! Heaven has truly blessed us! We'll be even more
fortunate after surviving a great disaster!" She quickly pulled her hand out of his palm, opened the car window, and looked back-
"Oh my goodness, couldn't our stopping position be any better? If we had gone a little further forward or backward, we would have
met the King of Hell together!" In fact, Tristan also had a feeling of surviving a catastrophe, and the worry in his heart finally eased,
with the corners of his lips lifting into a shallow arc.
He didn't seriously listen to her words, as if the sentence, "Tristan, | like you," still lingered in his ears. So... she was serious. Monica
collected her thoughts, sat up straight, and found Tristan staring at her intently when she turned her gaze. She felt a slight
constriction in her chest, "..."
Their eyes met, and tseemed to stand still... "Miss Monica, | would like to interview you now," Tristan said gently, starting the
conversation. The girl thought of her hasty confession just now and blushed, "What do you want to ask?" She lowered her gaze, "I
will answer selectively."

"Were you scared just now?" He continued to look at her without blinking. She looked up, "Yes, | really thought | was going to die
here." "What kind of mood were you in then?" Tristan asked, "Anxious? Regretful? Worried? Or calm?"
Monica didn't know what he meant but thought about it seriously, "Mostly fear. This was the closest I've ever been to death, but..."
She felt warmth in her heart when she thought of several moments. "At the most fearful moment, what was on your mind?" Tristan
wanted to chat with her so that twould pass faster.
If they were just sitting and waiting for rescue, it would be unbearable, as the fear had not completely dissipated. She withdrew her
gaze, sat up straight, and said- "I thought of my parents. The three of us haven't sat at the stable for a meal in a long time. |
thought that if we could have a meal together, my life wouldn't be so full of regrets."
That was one of her wishes, right? So Tristan was thinking about helping her fulfill this wish when they returned. Having a meal
together was a small matter. Her matters, he held them in his heart.
