hapter 297 No Right

Back then, when Kate grew tired from yelling, Eric would hand her water. When she was hungry, he would bring her food. He never spoke back or argued, he just silently endured her anger.

She thought she must have seemed like a shrew, completely lacking the demeanour and grace of a lady.

Only in front of Eric did she abandon all semblance of poise.

She had asked him why he forced her to spend the afternoon with him and what he wanted from her, but Eric never answered.

He simply watched her quietly. When the time was up, he stood up coldly and left without a word.

Kate had felt immense relief when he left, immediately texting Ruth and Simon to complain about how strange and insane Eric was.

She didn’t see or hear from Eric for the next half month.

Then, one day, George came to her with a suppressed fury, urging her to see Eric. She refused and argued with George, harshly declaring that she wouldn’t visit Eric even if he were dying. If he died, it would serve him right.

Kate still felt a chill thinking about the icy expression on George’s face back then.

She didn’t go to see Eric.

Later, she learned through the grapevine that Eric had gone to Bastilla for something very important but extremely dangerous. His greatest concern was her, which was why he had come to Summer Estate to force her to spend the afternoon with him–he feared he might not return.
