Chapter 1708


    Just like that, Enca nagged her way into it.


    Larkin agreed to stay and volunteer at the monastery before heading to Norhaven.


    There were quite a few volunteers at the monastery,


    The work assigned to each person wasn’t much.


    In his spare time, Larkin would take Erica for walks around the monastery


    In the past decade, everything in the world had changed, but everything in the monastery had pretty


    much stayed the same.


    Only some small trees had grown bigger, and some flowers and nts had changed.


    After two days, Erica got to know the nun she first met a bit better


    The nun was a little unpredictable and spoke her mind.


    Erica bought her ice cream, and they ate it in the secluded backyard.


    The nun suddenly sighed, “Actually, the old monk really misses Larkin.”


    Erica, halfway through her ice cream, felt her good mood drop by half, “Who told you that?”


    “When he was seriously ill, we heard him muttering Larkin’s name while we were sitting with him in the


    hospital,” the nun sighed again.


    if that’s the case, why doesn’t he want to see Larkin?” Erica mumbled, puzzled, as she ate her ice


    cream.


    “Adults’ world is always filled withplications we don’t understand,” the young nun said, shaking her


    head with an air of wisdom beyond her years.


    Erica pondered while finishing her ice cream


    “Where does the old monk live? I’ve been here for a few days and haven’t seen him even once,” Erica


    asked


    The nun suddenly became alert. “You’re not thinking of barging into the old monk’s room, are you?


    You’ve got guts!”

    “Do I look like the kind of person who would do that?” Erica said, a little speechless


    The run looked at her warly, as if she was thing whether Erica would do anything unpredictable


    You managed to get Larkin to leave the monastery, and you are saying you are good and well-


    behaved?” the nun retorted.


    Erica was about to respond when her phone rang


    It was Larkin.


    He should be chatting with the monks at this time.


    Enca found it boring, so she went out to hang out with the nun


    Feeling guilty, Erica hid her ice cream behind her and answered Larkin’s call, “Larkin, are you done


    chatting?”


    “Yeah, where are you?” Larkin asked softly


    “I’m hanging out with a nun. Stay where you are, I’lle find you!” Erica said, and after hanging up,


    quickly finished her ice cream.


    “Don’t tell anyone about the ice cream!” Enca threw away the wrapper and exhaled a few times to get


    rid of the coldness in her mouth


    The nun was speechless.


    They say men are afraid of their wives, but in Erica’s case, it seemed like she was the one scared of


    Larkin.


    “You look just like a husband who’s been caught smoking by his wife and is trying to put out the


    cigarette in a hurry”


    “You’re really good at sarcasm!” Erica said, exasperated.


    She thought of the nur’s words and couldn’t help but smile wryly


    Enca didn’t waste time chatting with the nun, and went back to find Larkin right away


    The nun sat on the steps, leisurely finishing her ice cream before picking up a broom and continuing to


    sweep the ground.
