Chapter: 727
Her voice trembled with a mixture of frustration and vulnerability as she struggled to break free from
Theodore’s embrace.
Helplessly, Theodore let out a sigh and feigned sternness. “If you keep squirming, I might just feed you
to Rin as an extra meal.
Rin, faithfully trailing behind them, seemed to grasp the situation and emitted a cooperative howl, its tail
wagging happily in tandem.
Momentarily rendered speechless, Ariana found Theodore’s reasoning akin to persuading a kid by
threatening police intervention.
She wanted to protest further, but Theodore pressed her firmly against his chest, sheltering her face
with his shoulder to shield her from any branches that might scrape against her.

strong heartbeat. ALL her grievances seemed to dissolve, leaving her incapable of uttering a single
word.
The world around them hushed, descending into stillness.
The symphony of cicadas, whispering leaves, the caressing wind, and their synchronized heartbeats
wove together, creating a tranquil melody.
Leaning softly against Theodore’s chest, Ariana embraced the quietude.
Their shared yearning for peace kept them locked in silence, their unspoken understanding profound.
From Theodore’s embrace, Ariana stole a furtive glance at his side profile.
Bathed in the cold moonlight, his chiseled features appeared even more striking, rendering him an
ethereal and captivating figure.
Fear, which had gripped Ariana only moments ago, now evaporated, replaced by a profound sense of
security and solace.
Once confined to a wheelchair, Theodore’s tall and robust figure had been the subject of countless
daydreams for Ariana.
And now, her visions materialized before her.
His arms, enfolding her with unwavering strength, displayed no hint of tremor, even after their long trek.
His breathing remained steady, and the bulge of his well-defined biceps offered her a reassuring
shelter.
Ariana noticed Theodore deliberately slowing his pace, yet both of them harboured their desire for the
road to stretch on indefinitely, yearning for a few more moments in each other’s presence.
Emerging from the woods, they were greeted by the lofty moon, casting its radiance upon the path
before them. Theodore, steadfastly holding her, navigated straight toward the illuminated house nestled

Ariana’s gaze wandered toward the swing swaying gently in the garden.
With a subtle gesture toward the adjacent dwelling, she whispered, “That’s where I live.”
Theodore surveyed the house with a furrowed brow and blurted out, “Can anyone truly reside there?”
Ariana’s words caught in her throat as the image of her filthy, disorderly room stirred her up.
However, it became evident that Theodore was well-acquainted with this place, familiar even with the
state of the neighboring house.
Reluctant to return to that unclean, malodorous room, Ariana gingerly withdrew her hand and remained
silent as Theodore carried her across the threshold of the house by the creek.
As they ventured inside, Ariana observed their surroundings in silence.
