Forbidden Passion

Chapter 454 Don't Do Unnecessary Things

The roads were slick with snow, making the climb up the mountain easy but the descent tricky. Theodore led the way, holding Phoebe's hand tightly. After they got down the mountain and crossed the bridge, the sky started to darken.

The sky turned a deep red, lighting up the snow-covered mountains. The view was wide and open.

Phoebe was mesmerized. She pulled out her phone and started snapping pictures of the sunset. The mix of the sunset and the snowy peaks was stunning. Excited, she turned to Theodore, who was smiling warmly at her in the sunset's glow.

Kristoff quickly took out his phone and started taking pictures of Theodore and Phoebe. They looked like a painting with the sunset and snowy peaks behind them. Kristoff couldn't help but say, "It's so beautiful."

Phoebe looked up, bathed in the sunset light, looking almost unreal.

Theodore stood beside her, and Phoebe turned to him, her eyes reflecting the brilliant sunset. "Theodore, look, it's so beautiful!"

This was the most amazing sunset Phoebe had ever seen. Only in such a cold place could she witness such a view.

Theodore looked at Phoebe, her eyes filled with the sunset, while his eyes were filled only with her. "Yes, very beautiful."

The sun set quickly, and the light faded. As the sun disappeared, the sky turned a clear blue, with a faint crescent moon and stars appearing.

The deep blue night set in, and the wind grew colder.

Theodore raised his hand to put the hood of Phoebe's jacket on her. "It's getting dark, let's go back."
