Consume [1]

Staring at the space where Brandon and Belle were, Amelia found herself speechless.

Utterly speechless.

She raised her head. She could see the officers talking to each other, panic seemed to be evident in their expressions.

But gradually, their voices became muffled.

A ringing sound drowned out all the sound in the vicinity.

"Haaa…."

She started hyperventilating.

Amelia Constantine.

To an outsider's perspective, she seemed to be perfect.

Her work ethics were commendable, and the way she could compartmentalize and push her feelings aside made even the army wonder.

—Condolence, Miss Constantine.

—Today, we have a new member joining us. Please welcome, Captain Amelia Constantine.

—You're so strong, Amelia. I don't know how you could even keep a straight face in front of those officers when you yourself are in grief.

Belle's words.

"....I'm not."

She gritted her teeth.
