Bab 320: 317: Eliana's story 2

Eliana continued her story.

The next day, she had gone to the clinic, and her boss, Valentine – Alfred's great aunt and her boss – had noticed her distress. Concerned, she asked, "What's wrong?"

Eliana, needing to share her troubles with someone, had laid it all out to Valentine.

To her relief, Valentine neither mocked her nor dismissed her experiences as delusions.

Instead, she asked if the footsteps were still there. With her bloodline skills, Valentine could trace things back to their origin, and she offered to use this ability to track the owner of the footsteps, and potentially reveal the culprit's identity.

"Are you really willing to go so far for me?" Eliana had asked, touched by the offer her boss made her.

Valentine had responded with heartfelt sincerity, "You are like a little sister to me, and no one gets away with bullying my family."
