Chapter 12 Serves You Right

Alfred didn’t know what to say.

It was the first time Nella had ever called him by his full name like that.

His head jerked up, and he stared at her like he couldn’t believe it.

Seeing her calm and distant expression only made the tight feeling in his chest grow worse.

Her words left him stuck again.

He tried to speak, but nothing came out.

After a long pause, he finally muttered, “Alright. I’m glad you’re not angry.”

“Hmm.”

Nella nodded. “If we’re done here, I’m going back to my room.”

”

“… Sure.”

His voice sounded hoarse.

Even after she left the living room, he stood there frozen.

His

eyes followed her leaving figure, full of confusion and frustration.

He had no idea why he’d felt so nervous the whole night.

Then, Mason’s earlier comments popped into his head, and that worry twisted into irritation.

Alfred walked out to the balcony, lit a cigarette, and breathed in deeply.

The smoke helped push down the anxious pounding in his chest.

“Nella, please don’t be upset with him, okay? He’s always chosen me since we were little. That’s why he left you in Glacieroth. He didn’t do it on purpose.

“If you’re angry, then blame me. I don’t want you guys to ruin your relationship because of

me.”

Zoey’s messages looked like apologies, but Nella easily saw the hidden jabs inside them.

She could choose to ignore it, but she couldn’t deny that Zoey wasn’t wrong.

Those lines were provocations, and they were also the truth.

Then everything made sense. So that was why Alfred, who never bowed his head to anyone, apologized first today.

Not for Nella-because Zoey asked him to.

He didn’t want Zoey to feel guilty.
