"Something happened."
Lu Li had no intention of explaining further.
Aileen raised her chin thoughtfully: "No wonder I didn't see Anna... By the way, tell me about the process after you met Adolf, the manager who just brought you here."
Lu Li briefly recounted the conversation when they arrived and the reason they found the refuge.
"So he made a choice too..." Aileen seemed a bit pleased, tapping her fingers lightly on the table. "And it was quite a radical decision."
Thud thud—
"There's one more standing with us."
Lulu descended the wooden stairs and stood behind Aileen, just like she had twenty years ago when she appeared with Baron Joseph in a dressing gown at the banquet.
Time passed, yet nothing was taken from them except itself.
"Push me over."
Lulu grabbed the wheelchair and pushed Aileen around the desk. Aside from Lu Li, others saw that the blanket covering her lacked the contours of legs.
