Chapter 310

Feeling guilty, Gerard replied, "Well, it's not really like that."

Then, he thought, "I occasionally indulge in a little rebellion."

Vespera left work ahead of schedule. She had injured her left foot, but it didn't hinder her ability to drive. She headed to an osteopathy clinic.

Back in high school, her parents relocated the house closer to the school for her convenience. Typically, her father would visit this clinic whenever he sprained his ankle during a game or experienced back pain.

Vespera acknowledged with a nod and a smile. "Mr. Kectt, you still remember me."

Vespera found his comment entertaining. After exchanging a few friendly words, she brought up her sprained foot and requested his assistance in examining it.
