Before Virgo could say any more to her clearly upset partner, the line was disconnected.
That idiot. Well, whatever. He'll take responsibility for his actions anyway. In any case, I should focus on my task as well. Getting Rio to trust me and help us in our mission! She grumbled to herself.
So far, it seemed like he was warming up to her. At the very least, he didn't have as much animosity toward her as he did when they first met.
He even saved her and touched her-
"Stop thinking about that!" She said out loud, shaking her head vehemently as she tried to forget the embarrassing thing Rio did.
"What the hell... that man... I would kill him if I could!"
Gritting her teeth, Virgo gave up on the thought and gave a heavy sigh, waiting for Rio to return.
