Chapter 254: Not being locked

He observed the door where Lucretia had passed a few minutes before with unrest in his heart.

It was new: that brat couldn't ever move anything in his heart. But he was worried about her reaction all of a sudden. As if it regarded him in any way.

He shook his head and focused back on the meeting.
