Emmelyn dropped her quill as her mind wandered to the past. Thinking about Maxim made her let out a long sigh. She owed the man so much for all the life skills she had now.
Where was Maxim now? What was he doing? She was wondering.
She wished she could meet him again and apologize for ghosting him. She was in a panic and worried about her family, that's why she didn't try to find him.
When Emmelyn returned from the market, feeling distraught, Maxim was not in the accommodation. Emmelyn didn't even think to write him a letter to explain her situation. She just left.
Maxim must be so worried. Did he look for Emmelyn for a long time? Now, she felt really guilty.
Wait...
What if...
"Oh..." Emmelyn pressed her lips when a crazy thought came to her mind. What if Maxim was also affected by her curse?
They were very close when she was traveling in Atlantea. If he was hit by misfortune because of Emmelyn... it would be so horrible.
