Bab 72: Clearing the Air

Zenon stopped in front of Anastasia’s door. He stretched his hand to knock on the door but stopped when he heard the sounds of footsteps approaching closer to the door.

The door opened, and as he had expected, he saw Tilla along with Anastasia.

Both Tilla and Anastasia were startled to their core when they saw Zenon standing right outside.

Anastasia immediately held Tilla by her hand, pulled her back, and hid Tilla behind her. She then glared at Zenon as if to warn him not to take a single step closer to Tilla.

Zenon half raised his hands as if to say that he wasn’t there to hurt them. And he spoke in a low voice, “My Queen, I am not here to do anything to Tilla. It seems like there has been a slight misunderstanding between her and Vincent. So, I am simply here to clear the confusion.”
