Kapitel 302: Vengeance

In the wake of the emotional moment between Leo, Liliana, and the silent observance of Lara, a palpable tension lingered in the chamber. The unspoken turmoil and the weight of recent events hung in the air, leaving an uneasy silence in its wake.

Liliana, still clinging to Leo in a desperate embrace, gradually began to calm, her shivering subsiding under the reassuring presence of his unwavering support. With a deep breath, she slowly withdrew from the embrace, her eyes still reflecting the lingering distress and vulnerability.

Leo, his stoic demeanor unwavering despite the emotional maelstrom within, gently disengaged from Liliana's hold, offering her a reassuring yet silent nod. He stood, his movements purposeful, as he fetched a nearby cloth to tend to the unnoticed cuts on his palms, stemming the slow trickle of blood without a hint of expression on his face.
