Chapter 67: He’s Alive?!
"How’s your health, Lady Sylvia?" I heard Camille’s voice. I turned to her, her looks were either of worry or imposed attitude, typical for someone like her.
"Better" I replied, she forced a smile before looking away and sipping her tea.
"You must have experienced something so drastic, glad you came back in one piece," Dalton said with a smirk.
"Thank you, Lord Dalton"
"To send Nightshades after you at such a high price must be the work of some officials, we will investigate this with prompt" Lawrence said in a very assuring tone, his tone holding worry and anger.
"Thank you, Lord Lawrence, I may have come back in one piece but Mint didn’t," I said in a sad tone remembering the Dark Knight that sacrificed his life for me. I wish he might have survived what happened so that I can thank him.
"Mint?" Lawrence asked, perplexed. I became tense... because I knew it was forbidden to name a Dark Knight.
"I mean... I mean my Dark Knight... my Knight that was what I intended to say" I corrected myself before anyone would get suspicious, seems like they weren’t.
"I wish he was alive, he sacrificed himself for me"
"He’s alive"
I froze turning to Cedric with wide eyes, what? Did I just hear right? I did!
