Adelio flashed a faint smile, assuring the woman to relax. The debt collectors would be wandering around her house by now. He could not send her off no matter how strong she insisted. So, he dragged her to his apartment. Giving her personal space at the same time. "You have done a lot"
An ounce of admiration gleamed in L's gaze. The gratitude she expressed healed the man. They sat on the chesterfield sofa as they held each other with fear of losing one another. Maybe, Adelio only felt that. He held her tightly in fright; while L cared about leaving with money only.
"Nothing much. I wish I could do everything for you if I could" Adelio's low tone echoed. Hushing down the woman. She blinked. Gulping in silence. This man was so in love so that he was dissatisfied with his own capability. But he had done pretty much for her; no, for Larissa.
