Chapter 242 Lucky Charm
Ninette said with a hint of guilt, “Perhaps…”
After saying that, she quickly dashed into the bathroom to freshen up.
Seeing her in that state, Emrys snorted inwardly. Nina, your acting skills are really impressive!
While having breakfast, it seemed as if Ninette had completely forgotten about the events of the previous night. She said, “Ah, I’ve been so happy since I returned these past few days. I almost don’t want to leave.”
Emrys asked in surprise, “Nina, are you leaving?”
“I got work to do. It can’t be helped. I have to go abroad again tomorrow… This time, I came back specifically for you and even left my work behind. Tell me, aren’t you touched by this?”
“Ha! I’m touched, truly touched.” She sure touched me all over last night. “By the way, Nina, I heard from Delia that you went abroad to investigate a kidnapping case involving King Jupp. How come it’s been so long and there’s still no result?”
“It’s because King Jupp is so mischievous.” Ninette playfully stuck out her tongue, choosing not to continue speaking.
However, a flicker of worry passed through her eyes.
Emrys figured the matter that Ninette wanted to investigate was definitely not as simple as it seemed.
He said, “Nina, could you not leave? I’m somewhat reluctant to part with you.”
“I couldn’t bear to leave you either, Rys, but I have a mission to fulfill. Don’t worry, I’ll only be gone for a month, and I’ll be back before you know it.” Ninette patted Emrys‘ head, acting every bit the bossy elder sister.
After some thought, Emrys said, “Wait a moment, Nina, I’ll give you a lucky charm.”
He entered his room, and when he emerged, he was holding a round stone tablet. It was one of the Telepathic Formations he had carved in the past. A small hole was drilled at the top of the stone tablet, through which a red string was threaded, making it suitable to be worn around the neck. “This is a lucky charm. As long as you call out my name to it, good fortune will occur.”
Ninette remarked, “This so–called lucky charm is really quite unattractive.”
Although she said so, she happily wore the stone pendant around her neck because it was the first gift she had received from Emrys.
Emrys made a total of seven such lucky charms containing the Telepathic Formation.
