The words Lily Turner just said sounded like a joke to Easton Holmes, but he still held a lot of hope in his heart and couldn't resist turning his head to glance at her.
He didn't see the expression one should have when joking on her face, which left him a bit puzzled — did he misunderstand her meaning?
"That's the right way."
Whether she was joking or speaking seriously, he just assumed she was speaking seriously.
"Mm!"
Lily Turner only lightly responded with a "mm," which counted as a reply to Easton Holmes. After that, she didn't actively say anything else — she instantly entered a static mode.
Easton Holmes seemed to be similarly affected, and he didn't say much more either. He focused on driving home, occasionally glancing at her.
After the car sped for over fifty minutes, it finally carried the two of them to their destination.
