Chapitre 78: The artist's muse

"I did not expect you to be here"

Caleb approached the woman as L stood up. "I couldn't ignore this colorful garden" She sheepishly smiled. "Is there any flower you like in here?" The man threw a query. The woman quieted down for a moment. She then shook her head. "There isn't" Her response confused the man.

His garden had most of the plants, yet she claimed there were none. "Then, which kind are you fond of?" Caleb's curiosity flickered in his eyes. "Lycoris, spider lily" The answer stunned the man. It was beyond his expectation. "Is there any special reason why?" He added.

"Because it is pretty" L liked it without any special reason. From the first time she witnessed it in Japan while on a second mission, her heart paced in admiration. She could not take her eyes off of it. Since then, she chose it as her favorite one. "It suits you" Caleb disclosed.
