Even After Death Novel (Olivia)

When Leia spotted Avery, she subconsciously tried to escape, but Avery had already noticed her. "Begonia."

The word drifted toward Leia in the night breeze.

The woman's voice on the other end of the line sounded a little panicky. "Did someone approach you? Who are you with right now?"

"I'll contact you later." Leia hung up and quickly ran away. She was given mechanical legs, so she ran faster than a normal human.

Avery wasn't feeling well, so he only ran after Leia for a little while before slumping onto the floor, panting.

Unexpectedly, Leia turned back and ran back to him. She looked at him anxiously. "Are you okay?"

She had noticed him leaning against the flowerbed, so she thought that something happened to him.

Avery gripped her wrist. "Got you, Begonia."

Begonia was Leia's alias in Peace's Embrace.

Avery's voice was as gentle as always, and Leia had mixed feelings about that.

No one knew this, but Avery was the only salvation she had in her life.

Back then, when she ran away from the poor and desolate village, she encountered Avery.
