After coming out, Theo found Avarice next to the woods, staring at him. He quickly leaped off the treehouse and landed next to her.
"Are you done?"
"Yes. Sorry for making you wait." Theo apologized with a calm tone.
However, Avarice could hear his rough breathing and shaking voice, knowing that Theo was on the emotional roller coaster.
"For now, I will let you meet Ava first, and you should take a rest for today. You can go back tomorrow." Avarice sighed. "If she wishes to follow you, I will bring her again to your house. If she wants to stay here, I hope you don't ask her to come."
"Don't worry. I respect her decision. Besides, even if she follows me, I need to know the rules about the other country first, ensuring her security." Theo sighed.
