Chapter 176: Return

Lake had a stunned look on his face as he heard Kate's words. However, unlike before, this time it wasn't an act but a show of his genuine surprise. His brain froze up as he tried to process what he just heard, even stopping his act of reading through her fate in the process.

"What did you just say...?" Lake asked again to clarify his thoughts, but his brain had already started formulating a logical conclusion in that short time.

"I don't know much myself, but it seems that your parents and mine had a really close relationship a long time ago." Kate spoke as she blew on the fish she picked up to cool it.

"I see..." Lake had already calmed down at this point and began to review what he already knew.
