At this moment, Qiao Duo'er stood beneath the shade of a tree.
She suddenly noticed a leaf drifting down from a book, turning to mud upon hitting the ground; perhaps that was the fate of Almond.
The scene before her stirred emotions, and a sense of helplessness grew in her heart.
She thought she could save the world because she carried the halo of time-travel.
But the truth was that she couldn't even save her own Maid who followed her every day; it turned out she was not the protagonist of the world, nor was she omnipotent.
"You were truly kind to Almond, and she would only be grateful to you," Granny Su consoled.
Meeting an Owner like the Tan Family, Almond would certainly die peacefully.
"But she doesn't want to die."
Qiao Duo'er spoke slowly; she had only looked at Almond once, but she saw her intense will to live.
