Chapter 2175
- "You've just woken up and are still weak. Take it slow." Carl's voice was low and pleasant, like the strings of a cello, carrying a soothing power. Through the thin fabric, the warmth of his palm somehow eased Alfonso's tense nerves.
- Amelia glanced at him, gratitude flashing in her eyes. She knew Carl must have seen through something, but his calm cooperation was undoubtedly the best protection for Alfonso.
- The three of them walked together to the sofa in the living room and sat down. Amelia helped Alfonso settle into the soft fabric sofa, thoughtfully placing a cushion behind him. Her movements were practiced and gentle, just like when she cared for a sick older brother.
