Chapter 27 Secrets at Night

• Ever since I started staying with Albert, we had never spent a night together. He was always out working at night, leaving me to occupy the vast room alone.
• That evening was no exception. After taking a shower, Albert dressed swiftly and departed, his parting words a gentle reminder to rest well. I watched him leave, feeling a mix of relief and trepidation.
• My feelings towards Albert had undergone a dramatic shift since witnessing him kill that man with chilling nonchalance. The memory still haunted me, replaying in my mind like a macabre loop.
