Sylvester didn''t want to stay here. He stood up straight from the pir, casually brushed his sleeve, and said, "It''s good that you''re all right." With that, he turned to leave.
But just a few steps away, L came up to him and rushed into his arms. Her hands were around his waist and her voice was a bit heavy as she called out to him, "Sylvester." Sylvester felt L fill his heart, and then he heard L''s voice and knew she must have been crying.
Sylvester lowered his eyes and kissed her forehead. His left hand with the dragon ring gently held the back of L''s head and pulled her back as he looked down at her crystal silver eyes. L''s eyes were red at the corners, her straight nose was also pink, and she looked particrly adorable.
Sylvester''s right thumb gently caressed L''s smooth cheek, and his voice softened as he said, "You''re crying again."
L pouted, her eyes drooped, and with a heavy tone, she replied as her cheek was rubbing against Sylvester''s palm with a hint of weariness in her eyes, "I saw Flora. She has really forgotten me. I feel a bit sad."
L''s tone was extremely lonely.
Upon hearing this, Sylvester was excited inside, but he didn''t show it.
Sylvester spoke even more softly to L, "You still have me."
For Sylvester, Flora''s memory loss was a good thing.
This way, L could focus more on him.
L obediently pursed her lips and nodded. She told him, "But seeing Flora doing well, I''m happy."
Although L said so, for a moment, her heart was filled with mixed emotions.
L still felt a bit ufortable. She reached out with her chin against Sylvester''s solid chest and coquettishly said, "Sylvester, hug me."
L hugged Sylvester, buried her face in his neck, and hid in his arms as if this way she could feel much better.
Sylvester would fulfill all of L''s requests.
And he couldn''t ask for more under these circumstances.
Sylvester lifted L by the waist and rested his chin on her shoulder. Then, they walked out. He suggested, "Let''s go. Let''s take a nap."
L was probably exhausted from the night. This morning, she fainted in his arms again, and after waking up, she ran around. So she hardly got any good sleep. L hugged Sylvester''s neck, looked up, and saw everyone in Apricot Grove Hall looking at her.
Mildred, still weak, waved at L and showed a polite yet embarrassed smile.
Trenton also gave her a slight smile.
L blinked and looked at the two. Her slender legs vigorously were shaking on either side of Sylvester''s waist. "You''re back," she said. With that, she patted Sylvester''s shoulder, which indicated she wanted to get down.
Sylvester helplessly put L down.
L, who had been feeling upset because of Flora, became happy when she saw herpanions were back.
She ran over to Mildred, raised her fist, hammered Mildred''s shoulder, and happily said, "Mildred, are you okay? I''m really happy to see you unharmed."
As soon as L said this, Mildred''s intuition told him that something bad was about to happen.
Sure enough, the next moment, he felt a bone-chilling coldnessing straight at him. Slowly raising his head to look in that direction, he saw Sylvester staring at him with icy eyes.
