Capítulo 275: Back to Meadow

When Eve and Vincent finally arrived at Meadow, the carriage was driven to Dawson's residence. Deep in thought, Eve stared outside the carriage's window as she remembered what had happened between her and the townsfolk. She felt Vincent place his hand on her hand and she turned to look at him. 

"Hold your head high, there is nothing you have to be ashamed or fear about. You don't have to look down and walk because it wasn't you who committed a wrong, but the others. Don't care what others think, it will hurt less," Vincent assured her, and Eve returned his words with a smile. 

It wasn't that Eve feared being looked down on, but it was that things couldn't go back to the way it was before. Like the weather, the warmth of the people now felt empty and cold. If it weren't for Eugene, whom she knew was in the house, she would have felt the town to be foreign.
