I Believe He Has Learned from His Past Mistakes

Once Asher left, Lucas wrapped the ice with the towel before pressing it on Liliana's right ankle. He did it ever so gently, afraid of adding much strain to her injury.

"Why don't you call it a night?" suggested Lucas, looking up from Liliana's foot to her face, "I think you should return to the manor instead of your apartment."

Liliana's original plan was to follow Lucas back to Springfield Town but, a sprained ankle meant her movement would be limited. Staying alone in her apartment—or even with Lucas—wouldn't be favorable.

"Okay... I'll tell Talia to go home early," replied Liliana dispiritedly. Her mood turned somber.

A chuckle escaped Lucas' lips. He understood what made Liliana disheartened. Like her, he also looked forward to going back together to Springfield.

"You need to get better ah. If not, I think we have to cancel our trip this weekend."

Liliana was horrified. She quickly shook her head.
