Owen Bertram ignored the surrounding discussions and returned to the carriage, only to find the little girl helplessly explaining to Verna again and again: "You saved me, I won't steal your candied fruit sweets, you really don't need to guard them like this..."
Verna was still particularly vigilant, her hands circling around a plate of mixed candied fruits and a box of frosted sugar oil crispy fruit sweets on the small carriage table.
Owen Bertram shook his head speechlessly, the person was saved by his own order, and he had affirmed her as a good person, yet Verna became wary of her once she was on board.
Owen Bertram called out: "Girl, where do you live, we will take you home."
The little girl was about to answer when shouts came from outside: "Little sister——". The voice was very far at first, seemingly still at the end of the long street, but it finally reached outside the carriage.
