Under the Veil I Rule novel Chapter 113

She stood there, silent, unsure of what to say.

"Finn, are you guys here?"

Suddenly, the door to the stairwell opened, and Liliana peeked her head out.

Seeing Finnian and Amara indeed there, she leaned against the wall and slowly made her way inside.

Her face was as pale as a sheet, and she looked like she might faint at any moment. Finnian quickly went over to support her, murmuring, "Why did you come out?"

Liliana bit her lip, glancing at Amara with hesitation, and then looked up at Finnian, tears welling in her eyes.

"I didn't know where you went. I got scared. Please don't leave, okay?"

Finnian's face was stern, but his tone softened a little. "Where would I go?"

Liliana nodded, and just then her body gave way, her legs unable to support her, nearly tumbling down the stairs.

With quick reflexes, Finnian caught her in his arms, and seeing her so weak, he simply picked her up and carried her out of the stairwell.

Amara watched them leave, not moving an inch. She gradually settled down, realizing she had said quite a few inappropriate things and had pushed the situation to a rather precarious point. It was impossible to say she didn't regret it at all.

But Amara knew that there was no use crying over spilled milk. Regret wouldn't fix anything, so she decided to stop dwelling on the past and focus on how to fix things.
