The sound of car engines revving grew fainter as the car sped away from the yard.

It was clear that Freya was desperate to avoid being taken to the police station by Emyr and had hastily fled the scene.

Everyone turned to look at Emyr, but he remained silent, his expression unreadable. After a moment, he walked away.

Meanwhile, Charmaine, curled up on the large sofa, remained unnoticed.

She was still in a daze, struggling to process everything that had just happened.

The words Emyr had spoken without hesitation echoed in her mind, and Freya's curse haunted her thoughts.

It felt as though the tangled mess in her head was slowly starting to untangle. Could it be that Freya had gone to such lengths to target her because she had discovered her true identity as Robin?

Charmaine pursed her lip, her face a mixture of confusion and realization.

Normally, Emyr was punctual with his routine, always going to bed by 10 PM, without fail.

But tonight, Charmaine deliberately stalled and only slowly made her way to the bedroom just before 11 PM.

The room was pitch dark. He should be asleep by now, right?

Charmaine quietly closed the door, thinking about heading to the bathroom to wash up.

But just as she took a few steps, all the lights in the room suddenly flickered on.

The man she had thought was asleep was now sitting in a wheelchair, waiting for her right by the door.

He continued to wear the same clothes from the afternoon, not bothering to change them until his wet ones had dried.

In fact, he had been angry earlier because it reminded him of past unpleasant experiences. His reaction wasn't unexpected; she had overreacted in her bad mood, exaggerating a minor issue.

She didn't even know why she was upset with him. But now, seeing him waiting for her, Charmaine couldn't shake the strange feeling stirring inside her.

Her lips parted slightly, and she spoke softly, "I ... ”

"I'm sorry," those words left his lips even faster than hers.

Charmaine was bewildered; momentarily unsure of how to respond.

Wasn't it supposed to be her apologizing? How had it ended up being him?

Emyr pushed himself forward in the wheelchair, coming to a stop right in front of her.

He looked up at her, his gaze locked onto her confused expression. Taking a deep breath, he began speaking again, his words deliberate but stiff. "I didn't know you liked those cats so much. I was just upset because you didn't take care of yourself in the rain. At that time-it was freezing, and you were soaked to the bone, your hands icy cold. Meanwhile, those cats barely had a drop of water on them. Of course, I got angry. But it wasn't that I disliked them or that I disdained them."

It was clear that Emyr wasn't the best at apologizing or explaining himself. His words were stiff, his expression tense. He furrowed his brow, each word coming out as though he was trying hard to find the right way to phrase it.

Finally, he reached out slowly and took her hand. It was tentative, like he was seeking reconciliation. "If I came down too hard, I'm sorry. Please, don't stay mad at me, okay?"

As he spoke, he gently held her fingers.

The coolness of her hand made him frown again, but he pulled both her hands into his large, dry hands.

The warmth spread through her hands and something inside her heart.

She said softly, "I'm sorry. I shouldn't have gotten angry at you. I wasn't in the best mood at the time. The rain was so heavy, and you ran all that way to find me. I condemned you over one careless remark, and that was unfair to you."noveldrama

Surprised by her apology, Emyr looked at her, his tensed face softening a little.

"You're not angry anymore?" he asked

Charmaine pouted slightly. "Actually, I was going to apologize before you did, but you beat me to it."

Emyr's face hardened in mild frustration as if he regretted his action. "Kane told me to hurry up and apologize or you'd be even angrier. That guy really knows how to mess with people."

At that, Charmaine couldn't help but chuckle. No wonder he'd been so awkward and trying so hard-Kane had been the one pushing him.

He was really worried about his buddy.

Charmaine didn't realize that during the time she and Emyr had been at odds, the entire household had been concerned about the duo.

When Emyr was in a bad mood, it used to be a huge deal at the manor.

Now, when Charmaine was the one upset, the manor went into emergency mode.

She pulled a long face and playfully chided, "So, does that mean you're regretting apologizing to me?"

Emyr playfully flicked her forehead, his voice quiet as he replied, "Eh, no big deal. Just consider it a learning experience."
