Mar-Dule looked at Sol with regret overflowing in his teary eyes. Meanwhile, Sol's thoughts became stagnant for a moment. He immediately understood why Mar-Dule was so panicking, but what should he do?
"Sol, Hua-yin's inside. She's asking if I saw Elder Hyun-joon when I was in Pearl City."
Sol's breath hitched in his throat, but Mar-Dule hurriedly added.
"But I didn't say anything because this relates to your secret bloodline… However, if she's asking me, that means she has suspicions that I might know, right? Maybe she even figured out I was directly involved in her disappearance. If that's the case and I told her I don't know… Sol, what should I do? What should I say to her? I don't want to reveal your secrets, but I don't want to break up with Hua-yin over this either."
After saying this, Mar-Dule lowered his head, afraid to meet Sol's gaze.
Sol took a deep breath and calmed his emotions.
"How long has she been waiting?"
