The Chosen Mate

'A lot.' 

That was what he said and Luo Yi frowned. When she asked him about the reasons, he simply said that he wouldn't betray their friendship that way, he wouldn't break their trust like that. 

Maybe she was mistaken. She was just thinking too much and made a wrong assumption. It was all just a coincidence. 

Caleb had known Hiroshige far longer than her. She had only known him for a few days. She couldn't judge like that. 

However, Caleb paused for a while. 

Why? 

If you trusted him so much, why did you falter like that? 

And as if something had triggered him, Caleb stood up in a hurry, bringing her with him as his arms were still wrapped around her. 

"If it is true… If it is true…" 

Caleb kept on mumbling with Luo Yi in his arms. She was hanging from them like a cat being carried and she just sacked her weight.
