Chapter 130 Not Good

• A week had passed since Ariana left Zeroun's residence. But if Gerald noticed, the atmosphere at his home seemed normal. Even Axel, who used to sulk when going to school, now appeared just like before. It was as if things had returned to the way they were before Ariana entered their lives. The only one who felt Ariana's absence was Gerald.
• Yes. Every night, without realizing it, Gerald would wake up with his hand reaching out to Ariana's empty side of the bed. Then he would stay awake until the early hours of the morning, missing the woman who had been accompanying his sleep and patiently listening to his meaningless chatter.
• Ariana. Why was she doing all this? How could she be so heartless to her own child? How could she be so cruel to Gerald? Didn't she have any feelings for him? Gerald was convinced that Ariana had started to open up to him. If Ariana didn't have feelings for him, she wouldn't have agreed to be with him. She wouldn't have prepared his favorite meals, listened to his ramblings, or spent time with him. Or was it all an act? Or just pity? Feeling sorry for Gerald, who always professed his love?
