章節 63: Alastair's orders

"No, No, No. How could he be here? How?" Samantha's panic clouded her rationality, and she ran away from the place, from Alastair, stunning everyone in the hall. The girl's behavior was utterly shocking and bizarre. Only Alastair and the Bradfords stood still, their expressions unwavering. They understood the reason for the girl's behavior, and they pitied her, especially Susanne, who could not stop worrying about her.

Alastair gritted his teeth, his frustration increasing at every step Samantha took away from him. This was not the way he had intended to introduce himself. This was not how he had planned to reveal his identity. This was not what wanted. Seeing Samantha run away, his heart ached. All he wanted to do was go to her and bring her back, speak to her, hug her and console her.
