When Charles heard Celestine's question, he spread his hands and shrugged, indicating that he didn't know either.
"Probably scared because they know about you," Celestine said, blinking her big eyes and staring at Charles.
She was quite concerned about Charles and had been quietly keeping an eye on him. She knew about Catherine's departure, and she could sense that Charles was feeling a bit sad and down.
Aside from some mental turmoil, Celestine mostly felt jealousy and relief!
She was jealous of how important Catherine was to Charles. What would happen to Charles if she ever left him?
On the other hand, she was relieved that Catherine was gone. Now, Charles only had her as the opposite sex by his side, which greatly increased her chances!
The two of them didn't say anything further and hurried toward Cross Street.
By the time they arrived at the specific location of the bounty task, it was already noon.
