By the time he came to his senses, Aldana Candi had already been left behind by him again.
Abandoning her seemed to have become an instinctive reaction ingrained in his blood.
In this world, he might not have wronged anyone, but Aldana Candi is the one he has deeply betrayed, and he hopes to compensate her properly in the years to come.
She once loved him so deeply, yet was abandoned by him, but that won't happen again...
Eric looked at her, his expression somewhat complex. He stepped forward, unable to resist holding her with his hands.
Aldana Candi was slightly startled, "Eric?"
"Are you okay?"
"I'm fine."
Eric nodded lightly, "Then I'll take you away."
Just as he was about to reach out and hold her, out of the corner of his eye he saw the door suddenly open. He instantly retreated, a bullet grazing his chin as it flew past and hit the tree outside the window.
