Leia glanced at Mr. Adolpho, her sisters, and the surrounding guests, and an unknown glint flashed in her eyes. She turned around and her gaze fell on Adrik, who was staring at her with a darkened face.

Her brow creased in displeasure, and she clenched her fist in annoyance. She took a deep breath and an emotion that Adrik knew too well became apparent in her eyes: "Pain." She slightly nodded her head and, with her hand balled into a tight fist, she walked forward and proceeded to amble past Adrik. However, he reached out his hand to grab her arm and stop her, but Leia furiously slapped his hand away and walked past him.

She bent down and took her heels off as they were making it hard for her to walk, and she ambled out of the hall. 

Adrik yanked his hands into his pocket and shut his eyes as a deep breath escaped his nose. He never expected any of the scenarios that have unfolded just now. He never even knew this side of Leia. Yes, he knew she was a stubborn girl, but Leia today was something else... She was something he had never witnessed in any woman before. She probably thinks he is displeased with her actions, but he isn't. Honestly, he loved every single thing that Leia did. That's what standing up for oneself is. Let your haters know that you're not a pushover and put some fear into them.

Adrik smirked behind the mask covering half of his face and glanced at Lady Cathryn, who was still standing motionless, with amusement in his eyes. He slightly shook his head and turned to glance at Alex, who stood by the counter with a dumbfounded expression on his face.

He turned around and motioned for Alex to follow as he began to stroll out of the hall, not bothering to apologize on behalf of Leia or say anything at the very least. They walked outside, ignoring the reporters standing at the entrance, and boarded the car, then rode out of the luxurious compound.

The reporters who didn't get to hear anything from Adrik gazed towards the entrance door with anticipation in their eyes. They must get some gossip.

Lady Cathryn's face turned pale in rage, and she helped her daughter up from the floor. She turned red in fury as she looked at the mockery in the eyes of those around her. Her eyes narrowed into a thin line, and a wicked grin made its way to her lips.

Mr. Adolpho, who saw the grin on her lips, creased his brow and an unknown glint flashed in his pitch-black pupil. He turned to his daughters and motioned for them to follow him.

The moment she arrived at the mansion, Leia walked straight to the kitchen, ignoring the maids who were looking at her with bewilderment on their faces, and pulled the fridge open. She grabbed a can of beer and shut the fridge door, then strolled out of the kitchen.

She threw her heels away in the living room and ambled out to the garden.

The thunder rumbled in the sky and tiny drops of rain began to fall on the beings of the earth. Leia raised her eyes to stare at the dark clouds blocking the stars and the moon, and a soft chuckle escaped her mouth.

She glanced at the white swing and walked over to sit on it. Her eyes gazed out to the outskirts, and she opened the can of beer, ignoring the rain that was pouring down on her.

She drank a mouthful, and her mind drifted off into thought. Well, she expected worse than what happened today, so she's not quite surprised, but what has her confused is why she went crazy at that moment. I mean, she was being insulted then, but that was nothing new. It was expected. However, what made her angry was the fact that the woman had to indirectly insult Adrik about his scars. What the hell?! She was obviously trying to say that Adrik wouldn't be able to have any woman in his life because of his scars.

Ahhh!! Even the thought of it still makes her mad, and she doesn't understand why. Why was this affecting her? Her heart specifically. She felt broken within her at that moment when the dumb woman said that shit. Her heart ached and she didn't understand why. Does she... care for him? 

She shut her eyes to take a deep breath, but a cold familiar voice that she would recognize in her sleep resounded beside her, and she turned her head to see Adrik standing beside her with his body all drenched and his face unmasked, revealing his horrible scars. He glanced down at her with an emotionless face and walked over to sit down beside her on the swing. 

They peeked at each other, and the swing slowly rocked them back and forth. An unknown glint flashed in their eyes, and they both took a deep breath at the same time.

"I am sorry."

"I am sorry."

They immediately glanced at each other's shocked faces and chuckled softly. Adrik smiled at her and gazed up at the cloudy sky. He let out a soft sigh and tucked a strand of his hair that fell over his face behind his ear. "I am... sorry about today." He turned to her and pessimistically smiled at her.

Leia glanced at him and shook her head in disapproval. "I should be the one apologizing." A soft smile escaped her lips, and she apologetically smiled back at him. "I ruined the party and probably disgraced you in front of everyone." She clicked her tongue and gazed up at the sky.

Adrik stared at her and a simple smile emerged on his scarred face. "Honestly, I was proud of you. You surprised me...I never expected any of that. " He chuckled softly and caressed her wet hair. "Such a tough little wife."

Leia raised her head to look at him, and her eyes fluttered as she felt different emotions.. She took a deep, sad breath and lowered her head as guilt flashed in her pitch-black eyes.
