Noah was supporting her frail body when she decided to get up. She remembered the promise she made with her mother. Going home early? A day had passed yet she hadn't complied. Her mother would probably sick worried right now. Raeliana suggested that she's doing better now. She wants to go home badly and tell her mom sorry. On the top of that, she was supposed to send a message to Justin. It's been four days since he left yet there wasn't any message he received.
"Can I go home now?"
Noah's eyes surrounded by guilt. He claimed to be the reason why she was unable to go home. "If I were only there a few seconds before." Raeliana was hurt to see Noah keeping the fault alone. He even begged forgiveness through his eyes. She put him in a tight hug to let him think rationally again. "Duke, please disregard that thought. It wasn't anyone's fault. Look! I'm alive and let's be thankful that nobody left unharmed."
His words pierced his heart. It was undeniably hurting his heart. He doesn't want Raeliana to act like everything was alright but he liked the thought of Raeliana sparing a worry to him. He simply agreed but it was entirely different inside.
"But, you can't go home at the moment until your condition will be stable. I will be informing lady Mcmillan therefore rest with no worries."
She seems to be satisfied with his preposition, but something was still lacking. Her mother? Or Justin? She requested to let her do a message for his fiance. His eyebrows narrowed upon the word 'fiance.' He was careless to be involved with a woman who has already have a fiance. Nonetheless, Noah chose to abide the call of his heart. He simply shrugged his shoulders and said, "That I can absolutely do. But to whom are you sending the message?"
His curiosity brought a puzzlement to Raeliana. The male lead wasn't acting accordingly to the novel. He was doing everything in his own way. Raeliana was worried that she became the reason to the several changes of sequences in the novel. She pressed her lips in frustration, "F-for Justin. Justin Shamall."
Is Noah being too tangled to her? He was destined to be Beatrice's fiance right after their first meeting. It had been set yet the male lead chooses to pave his own way alone.
"Justin Shamall, is it?"
The way he spoke gives her shudders. He was warm awhile ago but instantly reverted to a cold man. Raeliana's objective was changed to "I need to live for tomorrow."
