Kapitel 321: Mrs Mercer

Unexpectedly, as the woman caught sight of him, her eyes widened in shock and she fell to her knees. 

Erasmi hurried forward and extended a hand to the lady," Are you alright, miss?"

As he got a careful look at her, he realized that this was probably not the woman he had come looking for. This person looked too young. Maybe she had been scared of the boys, he deduced, relieved that this was not a reaction from seeing him. However, in the next moment, he could not help but doubt himself.

The girl looked at his hand, then him and then the surroundings before slowly shaking her head and trying to get up on her own. Her eyes almost seemed to be accusing him to wanting to harm her. She moved to kneel and stand up, however, before she could, she was wracked with coughs which made her small body shake.
