Chapter 103: Down (2)
In the joy of rescue, I didn’t feel the despair of knowing I’d be pulled down from it. Honestly, I hadn’t expected to escape this place, so I wasn’t that distressed. But Liam would feel differently.
I grabbed Liam, pulling his face close. Owen Cassfire turned away with an awkward cough, sensing the odd tension between us.
“Oh, that direction is where Clara is.”
Unfortunately, he came face-to-face with Clara and was horrified. It’s not surprising to scream when a person with a gun suddenly walks through the door.
“Liam!”
No, nothing is wrong. From experience, I can tell that there’s truly no feeling at all.
Holding Liam’s head firmly, I spoke to him with a biting tone.
“Liam.”
He obediently lowered his head, his eyes flickering with anxiety.
