Chapter 125: A Journey to the Unknown
The room was silent except for the faint rustle of Ani’s footsteps as she re-entered. Adam glanced up from where he stood, his arms casually crossed.
He had been waiting patiently, his expression unreadable but calm. Ani approached slowly, her demeanor slightly flustered.
"I’m sorry for the delay," she murmured, avoiding his gaze for a moment.
Adam’s sharp eyes softened as he noticed the change in her attire.
Ani had swapped her earlier outfit for something far more comfortable—a simple yet elegant blue ensemble that seemed to complement her natural confidence.
The fabric moved gracefully with her steps, adding a sense of serenity to her presence.
Adam himself had changed into casual attire, his dark blue clothes emphasizing his enigmatic aura.
"You look great," Adam remarked with a slight smile, his tone both reassuring and firm.
Ani nodded, a small but genuine smile forming on her lips.
Adam extended his hand toward her. For a moment, Ani hesitated, glancing back at her elder sister, Yami, who stood quietly in the corner, observing everything with an unreadable expression.
Yami’s lips curved into a faint smile, but she said nothing, her eyes speaking volumes about the trust she was placing in Adam.
