Chapter 236: A visit in Avolire Palace II

I kept a safe distance from Cassara while we walked in silence. The air around us grew more awkward as neither of us talked. I don't know what she was trying to do, but whatever it was, I'm prepared. 

My shoulders flinched when Cassara suddenly broke the silence. "I heard Yul joined the third squadron."

"Ah, yes," I responded awkwardly, clearing my throat as I recomposed myself.

"You must be surprised." Cassara stopped treading as she faced the section full of red roses. Her hand reached for one rose, caressing the petals that made her look like a goddess in the garden. She was really pretty; I didn't know which was prettier between her and the red rose.

I snapped my eyes and replied, "Not really."

"Why, so?" she asked, playing a finger over the petals of the rose.

"Because anything can happen in the palace."
