John Fame wondered, has she truly regretted her actions?
However, the one that troubled him the most was Lissy Lock.
Even though she was aware of Walter Smith's true nature, she stubbornly stayed in the small villa and refused to return.
Despite his anger subsiding, it still lingered.
With such back and forth, John Fame felt increasingly distressed.
If he was the first to bow his head and seek out Lissy Lock this time, it would only make her act more arbitrarily in the future. He would always have to be the one to apologise first, or else she would never admit her error. Therefore, despite missing her every day, he restrained his impulse to see her.
Yet, returning to an empty home, the feeling of loneliness swarmed over him, making him miserable again.
Wait a few more days. If he could not bear it any longer, he would fetch her.
It was just a few days, at least let Lissy Lock know that he was truly angry, very, very angry.
The following day.
South City, the Winslows'.
