章 460: The peace was with him

The disbelief and disappointment in her eyes were clear, but it was better than her blaming herself for everything happening around her that was becoming painful to watch and feel.

"Did that woman ask these witches to call me an evil cunning spirit?" Elliana asked, cutting Nathaniel mid-sentence, finally looking around herself, her gaze meeting Azura, who shook her head with wide eyes.

Azura's form trembled with sadness.

"My daughter, I would never ask someone to call you -"

Azura stopped speaking and flinched visibly when Elliana raised her hand in the air.
