Kapitel 49: Chapter 049: Calm

"What is he going to do?!"

Roger was taken aback, suddenly making a connection to Anna whom he had seen not long before.

Information about specters flashed through his mind, and without time to think, he hurried out.

"Bang!"

Roger pretended to be clumsy, bumping into the nearby tables and chairs, making a series of noises.

"Roger, what happened?"

Adeline quickly stood up and asked.

"Uh..."

Roger quickly glanced around, the head rising from the pocket watch had already detached from the table surface, slowly floating towards Adeline.

"Adeline, about this morning's incident, I'd like to have a serious talk with you."

"Have a talk, now?"

Adeline hesitated, stealing a glance at Henrik sitting on the couch, but in an instant, she made her choice.

"Hmm... I'm sorry, my child... I must have a serious talk with him."

"That's alright."
