NovelEnglishChapter 232 With Thalia gently embracing him from behind, tseemed to stand still. The man didn't dare move, afraid that if he did, the dream would end. They both tacitly remained silent. It felt like a century had passed. Asher turned around. Thalia first noticed his Adam's apple trembling slightly with nervousness. Looking up, she saw his deep, dark eyes. Those eyes gazed at her with such intensity, emotions surging within them. Thalia couldn't withstand it and turned her face away.
She muttered, "I told you not to come. Why did you still clooking for me?" Asher cupped Thalia's face in his hands, gently turning her head to face him directly. ---- "Because I wanted to see you, so I came." His handsfeatures were captivating, his voice as gentle as a spring breeze. Thalia's clear, bright eyes were misty with tears as she stared at Asher without blinking. "What is it?" He lightly tapped the tip of her nose, his eyes twinkling with a layer of amusement.
"It's only been a few days. Don't you recognizeanymore?" Thalia's glistening eyes were like water, her voice soft from just waking up. "It just feels so unreal, like a dream." "It's not a dream," he said, a tender smile playing on his lips. "Ifyou don't believe me, pinchand see." Thalia gave a soft "mph." "Even if I pinch you, I won't know if ithurts." Asher's eyes were filled with mirth. "Then what should we do? I'd be heartbroken if you pinched yourself." Thalia laughed, lightly punching his chest with a hint of playfulness, "Alright, stop joking around." Asher caught her hand, saying softly, "I meant every word." ---- Thalia's doe-like eyes were clear and pure, reflecting Asher's flawlessly handsface. She pressed her lips together and asked, "Have you had breakfast?" "No. The conditions were worse than I expected. I reached downtown New York at. Downtown is much better than here-the water has receded, but the roads got worse the closer we came. There was standing water when we reached the county town, and about three miles from the village, it was completely flooded. We had to leave the car and walk the rest of the way." Thalia's eyebrows knitted together. "You walked three miles?" Asher made an affirmative sound. A flash of barely perceptible concern crossed Thalia's eyes.
Three miles on foot, through muddy paths where you'd slip twice for every step forward, risking falls at any moment. And in such a remote rural location with rugged terrain surrounded by mountains-if it started pouring again, there could be mudslides. - Thalia felt a chill of fear and didn't want to think about it further. Then something occurred to her, and she asked, "Did you not sleep at all last night?"
