An Unknown Guilty Conscience

[Ellie's P.O.V.]

I was puzzled. I frowned and looked up at him. "What are you laughing at?"

"Nothing," Anton immediately stopped laughing, but the smile in his eyes could not be wiped away. He covered his mouth and pretended to cough a few times. "I'll take you there."

I still couldn't understand why Anton was laughing and he didn't seem to have any intentions of telling me. I was about to ask, but he said, "Ellie, I'm glad you told me this. It shows that you still trust me. I hope you can trust me more in the future. I will protect you and Myron.

When Anton suddenly said that so seriously, I felt a little uncomfortable. I stared at him and saw how his eyes sparkled like thousands of stars, full of affection. I felt like I was about to sink into them.
