((( LEY POV's )))
"Master Rhio and his family are coming home!" a maid was ranting excitedly about that news.
I suddenly remembered what Mr. Jauis said...
"It's our advantage that the Zel Cantheliz aren't in their territory right now. I have tons of men in the place where they are now," he told me.
"What are you going to do to them?"
"Good question Ivy but what you should ask is what role will you play in our vengeance."
If they come back…that little hope that uncle gave me would be broken again.
No way. I turned away from them and hurriedly called Mr. Jauis.
"I heard that Rhio's coming back," I said.
"Scared?" he laughed, "Trust me, Ivy. I'm moving as planned. Now what you should do is do well in your little role."
My heart raced anxiously. What if I don't succeed?
Everything will be gone again... right?
((( NIEL POV's )))
"Didn't anyone among you notice Jasmin's strange behavior?" my question felt like a statement.
I expected they didn't.
"We never thought she'd leave...after the traumatic incident that happened yesterday. We thought she'd feel safer that Master Rhio's around."
Not good…
"Are you sure that Jasmin left and not abducted again?" I asked once more.
They fell silent. They themselves were behaving very differently, something wrong was definitely happening.
"Dr. Niel, Master Rhio is calling you."
Before I followed that manservant outside, I looked at Deo. I knew he was working silently to fix whatever was wrong. He nodded back at me.
When I got to Rhio's room, I found him babysitting Kevin. The letter was still on the table.
"That's her handwriting," he said calmly.
What's with that attitude? Was he giving up already?
"I could understand why Jasmin did that. I'm not angry. If I were to be in her position…a weak and fearful person like her…I would have preferred to sit away from danger. And that danger is me," he said.
Rhio's was staring outside, farther than what I could see as I followed his gaze. His voice was weak and crestfallen. He didn't bother to hide it.
"She also wanted her freedom. Freedom and safety. I can't give both. All I could give is love…but I guess and I know that that's not what she was asking for. Sometimes it's alright to give up."
"Rhio, you have a child with her." He just grinned at me.
