Barefoot? Staring at him, Nicole appeared to be stuck in a daze. Upon seeing her current condition, one would be able to immediately gather that even walking, would require great effort on her end. With that said, he now wanted her to walk, barefooted, on such a high and steep gravel road?

“Evan, what are you doing?”

While she stared blankly at him, Evan reached out to remove her slippers, soon tossing them down the rockery.

“Ms. Lane, please take your time! If you find that you are unable to complete your walk in a day, do it in two. If you aren’t able to complete it in two days, do it in three. What’s the problem here?”

“Evan, you are absolutely horrible!”

 

“Thank you, for your kind words of praise,” retorted Evan, striding down the gravel road across from the rockery, without even sparing her a glance.

 

“Hey, you, don’t leave, you… asshole!”

With his back barely visible now, Evan distanced himself further from her line of sight. Seeing this, Nicole soon found that she was seething with rage, all while looking down at the gauze on her feet.

 

Gingerly, she tried taking two steps forward, only to discover that she had felt as though she was walking on glass.

Clenching the edges of her clothes, Nicole could not help but curse at Evan, yelling, “Evan, you bastard! The gravel that he has paved is almost as unforgiving as he is. Damn it!”

 

What could she possibly do now? Oh well, it seemed as though it was up to Kyle and Juan, to look for her now.

Seeing that they were so small, it would have been impossible for both of them to have carried her down.

Who else could save her? Unexpectedly, a strong feeling of helplessness overtook her senses.
