Chapter 91: – The Lord Is With Us (12)

༺ The Lord Is With Us (12) ༻

Golden hair, crimson eyes, and pure white skin.

Combined with flawless facial features, she could only be called an attractive woman. Her beauty was better described as a work of art rather than a combination of genetics and luck.

She was a picturesque northern beauty.

Her name was Delphine Yurdina.

Her sharp jawline and piercing eyes reflected her fierce nature and prideful heart.

But despite being the heiress to a prestigious family, her usual regal demeanor was nowhere to be found.

Right now, saying she looked ‘helpless’ seemed to be a better description.

Her mouth was slightly agape, and her eyes were clouded over.

Her pupils remained devoid of light as she gazed at me before slowly regaining herself.

The first emotion that flashed across those crimson eyes was surprise.

Then shame, followed by fear, before slowly settling into a murky despair.

Only pain remained in the eyes that once dripped with nothing but boredom.

The once prideful girl jerked her head away, unable to maintain eye contact.

She chewed on her lips, and after a brief moment, a pained voice leaked through.

“……Why are you here?”

I didn’t know what to say.

Honestly, although I managed to meet her, the words came up short.

The only reason I was here was to figure out what had happened between her and ‘Ian’.

But no matter how I looked at it, it just wasn’t the right time to bring that up.
