A lengthy silence hung between them.

The car’s heating made the air inside slightly stifling.

Asher loosened his tie and partially lowered the window.

Cold air rushed in, bringing immediate relief.

Thalia carefully chose her words: “About what my father said-”

Asher stared straight ahead, his jaw clenched, his profile rigid with tension. His mood was visibly dark.

Though he didn’t respond verbally, the car gradually slowed.
