For this business trip, the first few days were quite busy, but once they had a few days of free time, he planned to take her around the area.
There were quite a few attractions near S City, and since they'd come all this way, he didn't want to just go back like this.
"Shh—" he whispered softly in her ear, "Don't talk. Just listen to the sound of the wind."
She had been answering phone calls all day and was quite tired. Even if Robert Thomson asked her to perform a stand-up comedy routine, she wouldn't bother to respond.
With the two of them so close and no one speaking, all they could hear were the sounds of the wind and the chanting, creating a serene atmosphere, as if they were in another world.
A shrill ringtone abruptly awakened the two from their reverie.
Robert Thomson frowned, not wanting to deal with the call, but the sound grew louder and more persistent. Finally, after a while, he answered the phone: "Hello?"
