Ansel's Gift - Three (II)

Ansel chuckled and shook his head: "Seraphina, do you know where you help me the most?" 

This question immediately made Seraphina nervous; she always became extremely anxious when it came to her role and the assistance she could provide to Ansel.

"I... I don't know," Seraphina whispered. 

"It's by always standing by my side." 

Ravenna, who had been silently trailing behind Ansel and Seraphina like an ornament, paused in her steps, then quickly caught up.

Ansel was... doing this on purpose. 

He had deliberately chosen this topic, this manner of speaking, and Ravenna should have remained unaffected, yet she… could not. 

Because even if Ansel's words were intentional, his feelings for Seraphina were genuine. 

So genuine that... she had no room for doubt.

The petite scholar took a deep breath and continued to follow the young couple in silence, playing the unfortunate outsider.
