Capítulo 35: Oath!

"Yes? Where have you found it?"

Rio asked again in his husky and worried voice. His expression was so serious as if he could feel the tension of Aylin and could hear her heartbeat.

Clearing her throat awkwardly, Aylin answered, "A friend! No, I mean that a patient forgot it in our shop."

"Patient or Friend?"

"A very friendly patient."

Aylin flashed an uncomfortable smile as she tried to explain in her soft voice, "It is like he used to come a lot to our store to buy herbs. But, after forgetting this in our store, he never came again. So, I was just keeping it safe to return it-"

"Hmm… That patient of yours must be very rich."

Aylin sighed in relief secretly, realizing that Rio believed her words. While playing with a loose strand of her hair, she answered, "Maybe. He was foreign. So, I don't know much. Why are you asking about it, Rio?"
