Chapter 255: You Talk a Lot Tonight

When her conversation with Charles ended Elle went inside her room to take a quick shower. After she freshened up, she checked Erick in his room but she didn't see him inside.

She searched him all over the house only to find him sitting outside the balcony. He looked like he was in deep thought. He couldn't stop himself from worrying about his parents.

Elle slowly approached him. She wanted to ease his troubles and cheer him up but she didn't know how to. She could understand his feelings. She knew this situation was very hard for him knowing that the people important to him were in danger.

Elle sat down beside him. When he felt her presence that's the time Erick snapped out of his train thoughts.

"Oh, you are here," Erick mumbled as he gave her a gentle smile.

Elle returned his smile and immediately leaned on his right side as she placed her head on his shoulder. She grabbed his right arm and intertwined her fingers into his.
