---- Chapter 233 The next day, Thalia woke up early. After breakfast at the hotel, they prepared to visit theke in the countryside. In the parking lot, Asher looked at the expressionless na. "You can go back. Nothing will happen with me here." na''s expression remained neutral. "I only take orders from my boss." Asher: He finally had a chance to enjoy a private getaway with Lia, and now someone was insisting on being a third wheel.


    na was certainly skilled and loyal to her boss, but she was also stubborn, inflexible, and not particrly socially perceptive. Thalia looked at na, thinking that following and protecting her every day must be monotonous and tiring, with no time off. On this trip, na deserved to rx as well. ---- Besides, in the wilderness, if something unexpected happened, having an extra person would be helpful. As for Asher, Thalia knew what he was thinking.


    He simply wanted to spend time alone with her, to have their private moments. That could be arranged. Once they arrived, she could ask na to keep her distance. "na,e with us," Thalia said. "Okay." They didn''t need to worry about transportation. With one phone call from Asher, a car arrived to pick them up. The SUV left town and after about twenty minutes reached theke. Normally, thekeshore would be crowded with tourists taking photos at this hour.


    Perhaps because Asher had arrived, someone had made ---- arrangements in advance. When they arrived, thekeside was quiet, without a single other person in sight. The car stopped. The driver remained in the vehicle. Thalia, Asher, and na got out. The sight before them was breathtaking. Thalia was awestruck. The sky was a pristine blue, clean and clear without a trace of impurity. White clouds driftedzily, like casual brushstrokes from nature, lightly adorning the vast expanse of azure.


    Theke mirrored the sky''s blue, sparkling with rippling light in the sunshine-glittering like diamonds scattered by angels, beautiful as a dream. The azureke was set like a jewel in the lush green meadows, peaceful and mysterious, refreshing to the soul.
