?<strong>Chapter 982:</strong>


    Louise agreed and instructed the driver, “Turn around. We’re heading to the amusement park. And inform the butler that we will not return for dinner.”


    Upon their arrival, the amusement park buzzed with activity, even in thete afternoon. Louise surveyed the area, looking slightly daunted and unsure of where to begin.


    Noticing Louise’s hesitation, Elyse pointed towards the roller coaster. “Now that we’re here, we should try the thrilling attractions.”


    Louise nced at the roller coaster, famously highlighted in advertisements. Feigningposure, she remarked, “Well, if you’re eager to try it, I’ll join you.” Grasping Louise’s hand, Elyse thought of her as a willful child. “Thank you foring with me,” she said warmly.


    They joined the long line for the roller coaster, spending what felt like an eternity waiting for their turn to board.


    Once Louise secured her seatbelt, Elyse grinned. “You’vee this far; there’s no turning back now.”


    Louise looked confused. “What do you mean by that?” Just as she spoke, the roller coaster jerked into motion, startling her.


    As the train gradually ascended, Louise viewed the scenery below from a dizzying height, which left her feeling slightly disturbed. A wave of anxiety washed over her. “It’s quite high up here. Does it scare you?”


    Looking toward the peak, Elyse replied, “It does scare me, but I seek the thrill to ease my stress.” Noticing the vacant look on Elyse’s face, Louise felt a pang of concern. She nced back at the anxious and frightened expressions of the passengers behind them, realizing something was amiss.


    Had she made a mistake by joining this ride?


    As the roller coaster plummeted downward, it became clear to Louise that she had indeed made a mistake.


    Throughout the ride, she observed Elyse, who appeared lost in thought. Despite the wind distorting her features, the empty expression in Elyse’s eyes was unmistakable.


    After disembarking, Louise’s legs trembled as she descended the steps. Elyse, seemingly unfazed by the experience, took Louise’s arm, guiding her to a nearby bench to sit. “So, how did you find the roller coaster? Was it fun?” Elyse inquired.


    “Adrenaline enthusiasts might enjoy that, but I’m certainly not one of them,” Louise said, ring at Elyse. “I’d rather not go on anything like that again. I’m looking for something calming and not frightening.”


    Elyse offered a reassuring smile and nodded. “Alright, we’ll try something different.”
