บท 752: Answer

"I wish to be by your side as long as I can…."

Those words were followed by a hand that wrapped tightly around his own, but then it suddenly trembled and her grip loosened.

Emery was genuinely surprised when he felt this. He was always bad at handling these kinds of things, but at the very least, he knew her gestures were a very emotional and serious matter.

Moments later, it seemed the girl regained control of herself, as she let go of his arm and took a step back. In her turbulent state, she gathered what courage she had and stared at him from behind for just a moment before saying.

"Will you… at least say something…"

Emery turned around in response and their eyes immediately met each other. Their emotions appeared clear from their gazes alone. Despite her usual bravery, the courageous facade she usually put on crumbled within seconds.

She turned her head away, hiding her embarrassed face under the shadow of her hair.
