章 113: The Weak Elise

"Thank you for taking me home," the woman whispered. She was embarrassed for giving this man so much trouble. "You can put me down."

Loriel didn't want to put her down. He wanted to hold her in his arms like this forever if she would let him. However, he didn't want her to think he was a creep. So, he walked to the nearest sofa and gently put her down.

Loriel touched her knees lovingly and spoke to her with the softest voice. "Wait here. Let me make you a cup of hot chocolate."

He had noticed that Elise's comfort drink nowadays was hot chocolate. So, he decided to make her one cup.

Elise was shaking and nodded weakly. "Thank you."

She had shed so much tears that she couldn't cry anymore. Elise looked at Loriel's back view who went to the kitchen to make her a drink. She felt grateful for having the man in her life.

Maybe she had saved a country in her previous life that now she got so lucky that she met a man so kind and attentive like him.
