Chapter 594 Take a Look at the Scenery Along the Way
Seeing the light in her eyes suddenly extinguish, Matthew's face turned somewhat grim.
Why did she feel so miserable when she was with him?
The atmosphere between the two grew even more tense.
"Why are you still standing there? Come with me," Matthew said in a deep voice, then turned and opened the door.
Mary quietly followed behind him, clueless about their destination or plans.
The weather was nice today. Opening the car window, the cool autumn breeze blew in, dispelling a bit of the irritation in Mary's heart, but only a little.
However, when Matthew parked the car at the foot of the mountain, a look of confusion appeared on her face.
"Why did you bring me here?"
Mary got out of the car, looked at the golden mountain, and a few traces of confusion appeared on her face.
Matthew gave her a cold glance, "Didn't you say you didn't care?"
Mary pressed her lips together and said nothing.
Matthew's tone softened a bit, "We're going hiking."
Mary remained silent.
A look of shock flashed in her eyes as she looked at him, then at the autumn-filled mountain, thinking she must have misheard.
She wondered, 'Why go hiking at this time?'
Matthew was already walking up the steps. Seeing that she hadn't followed, he turned back and looked at her, asking, "Follow me! Don't you want to hike?"
Mary opened her mouth as if to speak, but then thought better of it and stayed silent.
Following behind Matthew, she slowly walked up the steps. Gradually, her mind was no longer preoccupied with those chaotic thoughts.
Her body lacked exercise, and she was already panting heavily.
Matthew was ten steps ahead of her. He turned back, glanced at her, and sneered, "Mary, your physical condition is really poor."
Mary leaned against the side, panting heavily as she looked at him, "Are you out of your mind? Why did you bring me hiking?"
Matthew replied, "What else? Let you continue working or lie at home all day? With this time, it's better to do something meaningful."
Mary's expression was very indifferent as she said, "I don't think hiking is meaningful."
Matthew looked into the distance and said, "Mary, you're only focusing on the path under your feet. Have you looked at the scenery along the way? You think hiking is really tiring and meaningless, but if you look up, you'll find that the scenery here is actually quite nice, and it doesn't seem so tiring anymore."
Mary's mind stirred, and she really looked to the side. At a glance, her breathing became lighter.
It was really as Matthew said; she had never noticed the scenery along the way, only focusing on the path under her feet.
She saw that the road ahead was full of thorns, and she felt a pain coming from deep within her soul.
But what if she stopped and felt the surroundings?
At this moment, the sunlight was just right, the autumn atmosphere was thick, and the mountains were covered in layers of golden and fiery red colors. In the distance, mist shrouded the vibrant colors.
The autumn wind blew, and golden leaves floated in the wind, with one landing in front of her.
She instinctively picked it up and stared at it for a long time.
The irritation in her heart was suddenly smoothed out.
"Let's go." Matthew's deep voice came, "Maybe when we reach the top, we'll see an even more different view."
Mary threw away the leaf in her hand, unknowingly gaining a bit of determination, and caught up with Matthew in a few steps.
