Day Fourteen…
~~*****~~
Aiden was panting so hard after returning to Stephen's spot. "She left… I was not able to catch up with her."
"Just let her be. I think she wants to be alone for now," Stephen plainly said as he pressed the button of the elevator. Nathan's ward was on the seventh floor along with Phantomflake's ward.
"You can go ahead to Nathan's ward. I will just drop by somewhere." Stephen stopped on his track, turning in the opposite direction.
"Eh? Don't tell me you are going to visit Phantomflake?!" Aiden's eyes widened in realization.
Stephen just smiled at him meaningfully, not confirming nor denying it.
Aiden just shook his head while eyeing him helplessly. "Are you bewitched by her? Why are you so interested in her? I am warning you, bro. She is an enemy… Nathan's mortal enemy. Nathan will not listen to you. Once she wakes up, he will not spare her life. So stop convincing him not to kill Phantomflake." Aiden spoke spontaneously with his blabbering mouth.
