Chapitre 78: Returned to the Starting Point

'Tuck, Tuck, Tuck'

Echoed the rhythmic cadence of the carriage wheels as they traversed the bustling street, blending with the symphony of urban sounds.

Inside the carriage, an uneasy silence settled among the passengers, punctuated only by the occasional creaking of the carriage's wooden frame.

Delphine, her gaze fixed on the passing scenery outside, feigned interest in the bustling cityscape to avoid meeting the piercing gaze of her niece, the tension between them palpable in the confined space.

Kai and Timmy, seated nearby, exchanged frowned glances, their furrowed brows betraying their unease with the stifling atmosphere within the carriage.

Amidst the uncomfortable silence, all eyes turned to the figure with a flushed face....the unmistakable sign of embarrassment. It was none other than Aether, attempting to mask his discomfiture behind a facade of indifference as they made their way back to the Mansion.
