Crossroads

Chapter 32
The sky was turbulent with dark clouds, accompanied by thunder and lightning.
On this stormy and rainy night, a few people walked on the rugged mountain road and finally arrived at a wooden cabin with great difficulty.
“Our village received a notice to evacuate due to heavy rain some time ago. There’s no one living downstream anymore. The river has surged up, and it’s dangerous to go back on the mountain road. You should stay here for the night.”
Thanks to Ryan Bennett’s assistance, they followed him to a simple yet spacious wooden cabin.
“Is it safe here?” Vincent asked, feeling somewhat uneasy as he looked at the howling wind and rain outside.
“This mountain is filled with walnut trees which are very sturdy. Our wooden cabin is very solid,” Ryan reassured them.
Hearing this, they finally breathed a sigh of relief. In such terrible weather today, one small misstep could lead to being engulfed by mudflows.
“Let’s start more fires and dry our clothes.” Ryan went to the kitchen and brought back a bundle of firewood.
Vincent and the others didn’t hesitate, immediately starting to arrange the firewood piles and taking off their soggy clothes. Seeing. these men collectively undressing, Stephanie immediately felt embarrassed and turned away awkwardly.
“Don’t take off your pants!” Dominick, who had been silent all along, suddenly spoke up.
His words made Vincent remember that Stephanie was here and felt somewhat embarrassed.
They took off their jackets and shirts, revealing their chests, but kept their trousers on. They sat close to the fire, letting the heat dry their pants. They felt extremely uncomfortable with mud all over their bodies.
“No cellphone signal here. We can’t contact anyone else.”
As they busied themselves to start a fire, they discussed, “Kevin and the others should find shelter from the rain…”
Stephanie looked shocked upon hearing Kevin’s name.
Dominick’s gaze had been fixed on her all along and the surprise on her face seemed to carry another meaning in it. He tightly pressed his lips, the look in his eyes complicated.
“Call me Kelly. I have some clean clothes. Come with me and get changed,” a simply–dressed woman, Kelly Turner, came out of a small room. She was Ryan’s wife, and she smiled kindly at Stephanie.
Stephanie nodded at her. “Thank you.”
Stephanie, who was five feet six inches tall and slightly taller, wore Kelly’s dark blue cotton clothes. The sleeves and pant legs were much shorter, but she didn’t mind at the moment. She thanked Kelly and walked out.
However, as Kelly followed her out, she noticed the scars on Stephanie’s wrists and ankles and shock registered on her face. “How

As Kelly spoke, Dominick almost instinctively took a step forward.
Stephanie happened to look up at him, instinctively stepping back as if afraid of him.
