Maintaining a stoic silence, Bright's right hand, wrapped in bandages, subtly moved.
It seemed like a check on the healing progress, but to Emma, the movement carried an ominous undertone, akin to someone clenching their fist before a potential fight.
The atmosphere crackled with tension, Emma awaiting answers and Bright choosing silence as his response.
Bright stared at her, a seraphic smile on his face, a stark contrast to the threatening undertone in his voice. "You do know I can do many things, right?"
Suddenly, Emma felt a pang of pity for Cole. He had no connection to this issue. Cole, already burdened with the challenges of his own life, didn't deserve to be pulled into this mess. Why add to his troubles by making him a "pawn" in Emma's stand against Bright?
Moreover, Emma aimed to confront Bright with her own strength this time, witnessing his defeat without relying on external influences.
