[Roxy POV]

I stepped out of the room, too confused and grief-stricken to process my thoughts.

"Have you talked with him?"

My mother, Ophelia Rubiat, called out to me as soon as I stepped out of the room. I turned towards her and stared at her for a few seconds before nodding.

My voice choked as I looked down. Mother didn't comment on it any further as she hugged me with a sigh.

I stood there, motionless, feeling a bit relieved.
