Chapter 77: About Rock (III)
Swan stayed inside her bedroom until dusk, and Gale finally returned after a long day in the throne room. They stared at each other in silence for a while until Swan broke the silence with a simple question.
"Do you know Rock's current location?"
Gale's lips thinned.
Again, she could've asked about many things.
First, she could apologize for trying so hard to defend a traitor.
Second, she could apologize for dividing her heart in two.
Third, she could at least ask him about his situation since he left in a terrible mood at noon.
But it was about Rock instead. That bastard lingered in Swan's head for far too long despite only talking to each other for one day.
It gave him a sense of insecurity that he never knew existed before. Now he was worried Swan would fall in love with any man she talked with.
