Chapter 147: CH 142: A NEW ORDEAL

After Adam and Cecilia made their bet, the mood did not die down between the mother and son pair. The two of them knew very well that the other one was only acting as they did because they cared for each other.

Adam had a better understanding of the supernatural world now and knew how any moment was precious to them. Life was too short for them to just stay mad at each other for stupid reasons.

This was why, the two of them turned to a random bar and drank like there was no tomorrow.

Adam knew that he had sworn to never drink again but it was a hard promise to keep in this situation.

So he drank and drank. Drank because he was happy. Drank because of the unknown future ahead of him. Drank to hide all his worries even for a single night.

"Mom. You know, I kinda got married inside a dream."

Adam shared his story with his mother. Be it the dream that Asmodeus created to trap him or the one he shared with the poor girl as a last gift of solace to her before her death.
