Capítulo 119: Sick Russella

"Young man, didn't your parents teach you not to spy on people?" Russella's voice caught Cassian off guard. She hadn't turned around, yet somehow, she'd sensed his presence. When she turned to face him, her expression was mildly stern.

Cassian, realizing he'd been caught, stepped into the room with an awkward grin. "Uh… sorry about that. But… I'm actually an orphan, so I guess I missed out on that lesson."

Russela's stern look softened as she turned back to the altar, which Cassian noticed was empty. She gave a small bow before glancing over her shoulder at him. "Well, it's still something you might want to learn. I don't mind, since I was only praying, but next time, be careful—some people might take it personally."

"I understand, and I apologize for spying on you, Lady Russella," Cassian said, bowing respectfully.
