Chương 82: Don't Play Dumb in Front of Me Because It's Useless!

Alicia nodded, trying to convey understanding despite her lingering confusion.

She held unwavering trust in Arthur, which dissuaded her from seeking clarification through additional inquiries.

Shortly afterward, Arthur gently caressed her hair and whispered, "Alright, you can head back now."

"I want to freshen up and rendezvous with the individual I mentioned," he clarified.

Alicia's mouth subtly pursed, revealing a noticeable hint of reluctance etched across her face.

After all, Arthur had been her guardian and caretaker since her childhood, intimately acquainted with the nuances of Alicia's personality.

"How about I take you for a walk when I find some spare time?" Arthur's voice carried a gentle tone, and true to his words, the moment he uttered them, Alicia's eyes instantly sparkled, and she nodded with enthusiasm.

"Really?"

"Can you promise me that we'll go on a date?" Her words conveyed a hint of seeking reassurance.
