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.

The moment she walked in, the boss, John Kectt, recognized her immediately. "You're Vespera, Professor Gildon's daughter."

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

"How could I possibly forget? Whenever you came here with your father, those fellows from the barbershop next door would always come by. Your father acted as if he were protecting you from thieves."

"My father tends to exaggerate," Vespera replied.

"Not exaggerated in the least. If I had a daughter as beautiful as you, I'd shoo away those delinquents as well."

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