บท 288: Indeed Fated

"You are funny... you act like a lover seeking revenge." The man frowned, "What is your actual relationship with Alaric? Alaric died seven years ago, meaning when you last met, you must still be a child, right?"

Aleksis felt cornered at the question. It was true, when they met eight years ago, she was still a child, but now she was acting like a girlfriend who had been left behind when her boyfriend died...

Of course, an outsider who didn't know what happened between them would find her attitude strange and ridiculous.

"That is, because they killed Alaric, I could not meet him when I am older...!" Aleksis finally replied, her voice was filled with anger, "They took my chance to be his girlfriend..."

The man looked astonished behind his mask.

He looked closely at Aleksis' face to judge whether this girl meant what she was saying.
