Though he didn't look directly at her, he was watching her from the corner of his eye. Seeing her bite her lip, her hands restlessly hidden behind her back, a deep, cold darkness filled Seth Quinn's eyes.
In truth, he had arrived just as the incense in her hands snapped, so he had seen and heard the entire incident, including the crowd's murmurs of doubt.
'I can't believe something like this happened the moment she joined the cast,' he thought. 'Judging by her expression, she must be completely incapable of defending or protecting herself, isn't she?'
'What would she have done if I hadn't gotten here in time?'
For a moment, Seth Quinn was immensely grateful for his last-minute decision to attend the opening ceremony.
He had only intended to come see how she was adjusting, since it was her first time filming and her first opening ceremony. He never expected to walk into a scene like this.
