Alice Blythe chuckled awkwardly and quickly glanced at William, saying, "That's not it..."
Mr. Blythe stood up from the sofa and said, "Alice, what do you want to eat? I'll get it for you."
"...No need, just bread and milk will do. I haven't been eating these days; I'm almost unable to move."
William hurriedly said, "Uncle, I'll go buy it. I know what Alice likes to eat best." With that, he stood up and swiftly walked out.
After he left, Mr. and Mrs. Blythe seemed unsure of how to speak with Alice, finally saying, "Alice, this Great Heavenly Master, Lawrence Winters, is very capable. If you have any worries, you can share them with her; maybe she can help you." Saying this, they also left Alice's bedroom.
Lawrence Winters actually wanted to leave too, but Alice looked so pitiful.
She watched the light in the girl's eyes gradually fade after seeing William.
As if the hope that had just arisen was extinguished by him.
Lawrence Winters was a bit puzzled about why this happened.
