NovelAmazoneChapter 827 Just as Lindsey was about to speak up, Sumner yanked her away to start running.
They sprinted all the way to the edge of the hill.
It was almost midnight.
The sky was glittering with stars, and it was so quiet around them.
A chill breeze swept through from tto time, ruffling their hair and giving them a nice, refreshing vibe.
In the grass, heaps of fireflies flew up together.
The sky was all lit up, and the night Looked amazing.
"Wow, this is absolutely beautiful," Lindsey said, her smile stretching from ear to ear.
After sighing deeply, Lindsey glanced at Sumner and asked, "So, why do you bringhere? Just for the view?" Sumner grinned mysteriously, keeping her curious.
"You'll find out soon enough.
Now just take a seat.

When he heard her sigh, he could tell she had been feeling down lately.
With a concerned look, he asked, "Hey, what's wrong? The thing withand Xiomara has been sorted out already.
Is there something else bothering you?" Lindsey had been silent for a while.
It could have been because the scene in front of her was just so calming, or maybe it was because she had been feeling down for ages and had no one to talk to.
She said slowly, "So much has been going on at the company lately.
It's been really tough to handle for me.
Sometimes I even doubt if I've got what it takes to manage a company.
But hey, I know I'm in this position now.
I have to hold on, no matter what happens.
It's my responsibility, and my original goal, but... I'm just so worn out.
Lindsey hardly ever let her guard down in front of others.
Sumner felt a pang in his heart seeing her like this.
He had never seen her so vulnerable.
She used to hide her feelings well, like she was wrapped in a tough shell.
Most people could only see that tough side of her.
He reached out to tidy her wind-blown hair and said gently, "Whatever you decide, I've got your back.
I'll support you no matter what and I'm here to help with anything you need.
If you ever need it, my shoulder is always here for you to lean on.
" Lindsey didn't respond to his sweet words.
After a bit of silence, she curled up her legs, wrapped her arms around them, and buried her head in her arms.
"Besides all the company issues, my mom has been in a coma for so long.
I don't know when or even if she'll wake up.
Even the doctor isn't sure if she can wake up again.
Sumner gave her a comforting pat on the back.
"Hey, as long as she's still here, there's hope she'll wake up.
Miracles can happen, you know.
" "And then there's my brother..." Lindsey sighed deeply again as she brought it up.
"Anyway, everything is just going wrong around me.
It feels like the whole world is against me.

He locked eyes with her and smiled.
"At least I'll always have your back, alright?" Lindsey was a bit shocked.
ALL of a sudden, a meteor shot across the sky.
From the corner of her eye, she caught sight of the stunning scene.
She quickly turned her head and shouted in surprise and excitement, "Hey, look! It's/a meteor! Can you believe it? I just spotted a meteor!" Sumner couldn't help but smile as he caught sight of her beaming face.
It was like she had this superpower to sync up their moods.
When she was down, he felt it too.
And whenever she was on cloud nine, he was right there with her riding the wave of happiness. Lindsey lifted her pretty face to the sky.

It was like a few shooting stars were getting ready for the big show.
