章 103: Heartless Aldric

Islinda did not wait around for Aldric, she walked ahead of him. Her eyes misted and she was not sure she could hold back the tears anymore. A lot of emotions were running through her, but the most potent of them was anger. 

How dare he?! How dare they?! They had snatched her dignity and trampled it with their feet. To be honest, Aldric's behavior was understandable, she never had high expectations of him, but Valerie…. He was her last hope. If there was anyone who should have stood up for her, it was him. 

No, she needed to get away from here. Islinda had to find a way to escape Aldric. Surely, she wasn't literally his slave and he was just bluffing. She would live the rest of her life in hiding, but would be far away from him. From them. 

Islinda was cut open so her emotions were raw, and when Aldric snatched her wrist meters away from reaching their carriage, she whirled on him with rage in her eyes.
