Chapter 523 I Won't Get Married

"Do you know how worried I was about you..."

The gentle voice rippled through Basil Jaak's heart, and he felt a warmth in his chest, an impulse to hold her in his arms.

Yet as Kitty More turned away to regain her composure, she said, "We came out together, entrusted by the sect leader, so naturally, I am responsible for your safety. After all, I am your... half mentor."

This statement was her way of explaining what she had said before.

Basil Jaak was momentarily startled, then understanding, he said, "Yeah, got it. I won't go next time."

"There's a next time?"

"Er... no, there won't be a next time."
