Chapter 46 Argument

“She wanted to leave, and there is nothing surprising in it, but she was lucky that I arrived just in time. The weird fact is that, dad asked me to protect her, just before it happened.”

“What situation?”

“No, daddy, we are not tired, we are hungry.”

“Good then. We can have lunch. Gideon, Alice, are you coming with us? Leah is out shopping. We’ll meet her in the city for lunch.”

I folded my arm around Alice’s waist, and I looked at them apologetically.

“Seth, I think that is better if we are going home and having lunch there.”

Seth nodded. He understood me, unlike Ava
