Chapter 254

At two in the morning, Forrest was walking back to his room as he noticed a faint light peering through the slightly open door, along with a soft weeping. Whoever it was, they were trying their best to retain control of their emotions but failing.

He raised his hand and was about to push open the door, but he thought better of it. Instead, he took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket and walked out to the balcony at the end of the corridor before lighting up a cigarette.

The next morning, the light from the sun shone into the room through the window.

again, she would still have a place to stay.

By twelve at noon, Forrest still had not arrived though he usually arrived by eleven-thirty in the

morning. After waiting past the expected time, Madelyn decided not to wait any longer.

She then went to the ski resort at The Enchanted Mountain on a whim.

The sunrise over the snowy mountain could be viewed from the top of the mountain at five or six

in the morning, and Madelyn had never seen that before.
