Chapter 72- Assets
Walking into her room, Fiona sat on the bed and looked at Alex, who was staring outside. He had been waiting for her to come back.
"So, how is our protagonist doing?" He asked with a sarcastic tone.
"Fortunately, he is fine. He was… asleep." Fiona said as she looked away, trying to forget what happened. "I'm glad he didn't suffer any permanent injuries."
"Eh, I mean, when he has you, I'm sure you protected him."
"No." Fiona shook her head. "When I was injured, I got completely immobilized. Elio picked me up and ran for hours to save me. He had put his life on the line several times and didn't leave my side the entire time."
Just remembering all of that sent chills down her spine. She was certain she wouldn't forget it for the rest of her life. Especially those feelings she felt at that moment.
"That's…" Alex seemed completely taken aback. "He didn't strike me as someone who would do all of that."
