"Where is the woman that was with you!?"


    Gil and Van stared at the man who suddenly emerged from the bushes. Although the man was not really showing any indication of attacking, the two still kept their guard up.


    Gil was about to unsheathe his sword, but before he could do so, Van stopped him.


    "!!!"


    As soon as the man saw Van, he quickly backed away. "M...Mr. Van? Why why are you protecting my wife!?"


    "Mister... Van?"


    "...Your Wife?"


    Gil and Van slowly looked at each other, their eyebrows almost synchronized as they realized what was happening.


    "Yes, my wife! Cynthia! I saw her following the both of you! Where, where is she!?"


    They just came to know Cynthia''s story just earlier, of how she accidentally killed her husband''s mistress in a blind rage and now his husband was here?
