Now that Rose had been knocked out and confined, the main problem seemed to have been resolved.
But there was still one issue—who was going to watch him?
Selene did not want Rose to parade around, but she did not want to put the man down completely. What she wanted to do was to find a solution where she did not have to see Rose again.
As if answering that question, a familiar presence suddenly arrived at the scene.
Lyra.
She skidded to a halt, her chest rising and falling heavily as if she had run all the way there.
Her gaze immediately locked onto Rose, and in that moment, a wave of emotions flickered across her face—relief, horror, sorrow.
"You… you actually did it. I-Is Boss alive? I…did you kill him?"
She breathed. Lyra looked scared and relieved at the same time. It was tough for Selene to be able to tell what she felt for her boss, but it was certainly more than friendship.
