Chapter 133: Incredible Metamorphosis - II

"..."

Ansel was momentarily taken aback. 

Seraphina's mood... was surprisingly not low. Could it be that Marlina had successfully counseled her? 

Ansel quickly understood the situation and immediately prepared to execute his backup plan. 

"Ah, Seraphina, you seem... not as upset anymore."

Ansel sat down next to Seraphina and said softly, "I'm sorry, I—"

"Ah, sorry? What are you apologizing for?"

Seraphina tilted her head, looking at Ansel with a puzzled expression, "Why are you apologizing to me?"

"…Because I forced you to cancel —"

"Oh, that."

The young girl wiped her wet hands with a cloth and grinned, "I thought it was something serious. Ansel, why do you care more than I do?"

She scratched her head, somewhat incredulously, "Ansel, you didn't come to see me these past two days... because you were struggling with this, weren't you?"

"…" This time, it was Ansel's turn to fall silent.
