Chapter 159
***
As I observed Aiden, my initial thought sadly centered on doubting whether the person before me was truly him.
We had gone our separate ways just the day before, and he hadn't made an effort to meet me when I reached out.
He had even skipped the meeting just now.
Yet, the fact that he had sought me out now was almost unbelievable, along with the fact that he was smiling.
'What kind of peculiar is this? It's making it even more challenging for me to trust in your very existence.'
"...Lilianne."
The man in front of me retained his soft smile as he uttered my name.
"I've read the letter you sent."
"..."
"And I’ve come to give you my reply."
Then he paused, his voice quieter than usual.
In that moment, I felt myself irresistibly drawn toward him, as if ensnared by an enchantment.
There was no way he couldn't be Aiden.
After all, I had charmed the letter, ensuring only Aiden could read its contents.
