Chapter 194

Just then, Aunt Victoria entered with a thermal food container.

She paused when she noticed the Guardian Angel Charm in Rupert’s hand.

She recognized this charm immediately.

One could only obtain it through that special prayer ritual at St. Paul’s Cathedral.

Years ago, when Thalia’s mother Sarah was gravely ill, Thalia’s father had gone to St. Paul’s to obtain this exact

charm for her.

Sadly, Sarah couldn’t be saved in the end.

Remembering this, Aunt Victoria’s eyelashes fluttered with emotion, her heart heavy with memories.

“Rupert,” she addressed him, her expression slightly dazed, “Did you obtain this charm yourself?”

She stared at the pendant, her eyes lost in time, seemingly looking through the charm into the past.

Rupert continued gazing deeply at Thalia, responding with a simple, “Yes.”

Aunt Victoria was visibly surprised.

After a moment, she collected herself.

The way she looked at Rupert now carried newfound depth.

Rupert had visited the Winters‘ home with Lena several times before.

So Aunt Victoria recognized him quite well.

Even then, she had suspected something.

She had always thought there was something special in the way Rupert looked at Thalia.

But since Thalia had insisted they were just friends, Aunt Victoria hadn’t pressed the matter.

Now, seeing this charm, everything became clear.

Rupert’s feelings for Thalia went far beyond friendship–he was utterly devoted to her.

By any measure, this represented a sincere declaration of his feelings.
