Chương 69: Waiting for Karma

"Welcome, Mr. and Mrs. Ganke. Thank you for the time you have provided," said Professor Gilbert kindly as he extended his hand towards Leon.

"You're welcome, sir, it's also an honor for me to be present at this special ceremony," said Leon stuttered. He still couldn't focus because of Anne's presence.

"Alright then, let's go inside. The event is almost starting," invited Professor Gilbert, while directing the way for Leon and Steffi, who were still tightly shutting their lips.

Anne's eyes immediately filled with tears when Leon and Steffi disappeared from her sight. Her two legs that she had been forced to keep standing firmly were now unable to hold her weight anymore. Instantly Anne fell into the chair behind her so that it made Agnes surprised.

"Anne, are you all right?" asked Agnes, worried, because she saw cold sweat pouring down from Anne's forehead.
