Chapter 284.1
Kasser has found Eugene sitting at the dressing table when he entered through the door to their bedchamber. Looking deeply lost in her thoughts, she didn’t move a muscle while keeping her eyes fixed on the floor. In fact, she didn’t even seem to have noticed his entrance even after he had slammed the door behind him with a purposeful bang.
For a moment, he just stood and stared at Eugene, who looked all quiet and despondent, before he went up to her side. Only when he had drawn near to her by an arm’s length did she turned around to see him.
“Are you still thinking about what happened earlier?” Kasser asked, gently stroking her shoulders.
Eugene, however, only smiled faintly in answer.
“Nothing bad happened to them. They are both just fine. I can feel it.”
During dinnertime, Eugene explained to Kasser about what happened when she tried to introduce Kid to Abu earlier. She also apologized for not consulting him about it beforehand.
Contrary to her expectation, Kasser simply listened to her with a look of total nonchalance. In fact, he seemed to be more interested in the flow of energy which Eugene had felt earlier, than what happened to his Hwansus.
His indifferent response has somehow, ironically lessened Eugene’s concerns. However, what happened earlier was still bothering her. Her heart ached when she recalled the wary look on Abu and Kid’s faces
“They might be thinking that I’ve tried to hurt them. I wonder if I should have sorted out misunderstandings before just leaving them.”
