Hermosa's temporary room was simple, with only one bed and one quilt. Additionally, there were two tables, a few chairs, and a closet. It was devoid of decoration and other furniture.

At noon, Sophia and Hugh stayed at the temple for a meal. When they prepared to leave in the afternoon, it started to rain.

Because it was difficult to walk on the rainy mountain road, Sophia and Hugh decided to wait until the rain stopped. But the rain got heavier and heavier, and it hadn't stopped by the time night fell.

At about 8 o'clock in the evening, it was still raining. Sophia finally gave up the idea of going down the mountain. Hermosa prepared two rooms for them to stay for the night.

In the mountain, mobile phones had no cell service and everyone went to sleep early.

At the foot of the mountain, Colin called Sophia dozens of times but got no answer. After asking Aaron, he found out that Sophia and Hugh went up the mountain.

It was past 6 o'clock in the evening. Suppressing the jealousy in his heart, he asked Aaron, "When will they come back?"

Aaron didn't know either. "She didn't tell me. All she said was that they would climb the mountain, but I guess she'll be back soon."

He had wanted to tell Colin that morning. But Colin was busy outside all day.

When Colin came back in the evening, Aaron went out and they missed each other again. They didn't meet until now.

At past eight o'clock in the evening, Colin picked up his coat. "Let's go. I'll go with you and wait until Sophia comes back."

What? Aaron was confused. What did Colin mean? Was Colin going to go back home with him?

They did end up going home together. After ordering takeout and finishing the meal, Sophia still hadn't come back.

He called Hugh again but the call still couldn't connect.

Just as Colin worried himself to the point where he was ready to go up the mountain, Hugh answered the phone.

But the signal was terrible. It looked like it was still raining on the mountain. Colin asked in a sullen tone, "Are you still on the mountain?"

"Yes... went back... to sleep." Because of the poor signal, the line kept breaking up and Colin couldn't hear a full sentence.

Went back to sleep? Besides confirming that Hugh and Sophia were still on the mountain, Colin didn't get any other useful information.

As soon as the call got disconnected, Colin anxiously called Hugh several times.

On the mountain, Hugh walked outside with an umbrella and was about to call Colin back.

But before he could dial the number, his phone started ringing. He looked at the Colin's name on the screen and smiled wryly. Colin was worried that he would have an affair with Sophia on the mountain.

He answered the phone. "Colin, it's Hugh.copy right hot novel pub
