Just moments ago, Adeline had been pressing Sophie aggressively, but now she

looked completely stunned, her voice shrill with disbelief.

She said, "Dale, what nonsense are you saying? We just barely survived. Why are you resigning from your post?"

Adeline had initially wanted to dissuade her husband, to stop him from making such an impulsive decision.

She opened her mouth to speak, but after glancing down at her son, now battered and broken, her eyes reddened with emotion.

She said, "Dale, you can't leave me behind. If you're going, then I'll go with you. We'll take Caleb and leave Hasen City together."
