When he saw the woman in front of him crying, Nicholas spontaneously took out his handkerchief and handed it to Sophie.
"My lady..." he spoke gently with a handkerchief outstretched. His pair of amber eyes stared intently at Sophie. "Please, take this."

"C-can we go home now…? I am not feeling well…" she muttered weakly. "Please...?"
