Chapter 396 I Promise

"It's not about proving, master. I want to be your partner. I want to face all the challenges together with you. I want to contribute, not just be someone you take care of because of your relationship with me."

"Fine then, I won't try to stop you. But you have to promise me that you will take care of yourself. And there is no need to force yourself. If you find yourself unable to convince your family, rush back to me immediately. We can think of some other solution together, okay?" Zach had no other choice but to relent to her stubbornness and let her go.

"I promise, master...and when I come back, we'll face everything together and I won't have to be away from you ever again."

Luna gave him one final smile before walking away from him slowly. She used the servant exit to venture into the outside world as Zach was left behind to watch her receding back with remorse in his eyes.
