Chapter 233: Chapter 230: Sulking

"The stars are really clear from here."

At the top of the mountain, there’s an open space with a railing, essentially an observation deck.

At this moment, the tent has already been set up. Elliana Lyle started making the bed; since it’s summer, a thin blanket is enough. After all, the tent is of good quality and well-insulated.

"Alright, you can come in now," she said.

It’s midnight, and the sun won’t rise until around five, so there’s a long night ahead that needs something to pass the time.

Just then, Eliza Bennett took a box out of her bag, "Auntie, I brought playing cards."

"You know how to play this?" she asked, a bit surprised.

"No, it’s for finding matching cards, whoever collects the most wins."

"..." She chuckled, it was indeed a child’s game, much like a matching game, slightly childish.

Obviously, Norman Bennett was just a tool in this game, while the two of them were having endless fun.

--- 1 AM.

Luna Sutton finally arrived at George Lyle’s hometown, but there were so few people in this town that there were no hotels open at night, and even the police station had closed early, without a single person on duty.

Why didn’t we just take the train? Why insist on driving here?

The car had already made a round of the town, Galen Collins turned the steering wheel and said, "There aren’t any hotels in the entire town."

She replied, "You’re not even considering what time it is."

Galen sighed helplessly, "There’s nothing we can do, you should rest in the backseat for the night."

"No need, I’m fine here," she said and closed her eyes, unwilling to engage with Galen further.

She wondered why she ever had feelings for Galen. As the saying goes, love is blind, but without love, everything seemed flawed.
