Chapter 154: Regretful Loss
He did not know why, but he had originally decided to leave after this match ended.
But after hearing these words, his heart actually wavered a little.
Perhaps it was because Audrey’s words had touched too deeply into his heart, causing him to momentarily not want to leave again.
Morris suddenly felt very envious of Kate.
He was envious that she could always stay by Audrey’s side.
Morris took a gentle breath as the image of his sister flashed in his mind. After hesitating for a moment, he finally made up his mind and spoke.
“Audrey, wait for me here. I’ll come and look for you one day.”
Audrey smiled as if he was consoling her.
After all, it was impossible to pa.s.s the selection of the Templar Knights at will. Furthermore, Morris had lost his qualification in such a trial.
When the final spot was announced, Hera could not help but cry in the end.
Hera smiled and said, “I feel that I’ve clearly worked very hard. Why did I meet such a person this time? If it wasn’t for them, I would have gone in with Audrey long ago.”
Hera raised her hand to wipe the tip of her slightly red nose.
Audrey patted her shoulder gently and comforted her, “Hera, you have to believe me. Even if we’re not in the same place, the hearts of our Dragon Slaying Squad are still together.”
Hera looked up at her and nodded solemnly.
In the end, other than Kate who stayed by Audrey’s side, the others bade farewell to Audrey one after another and quickly disappeared into the long corridor.
Audrey, who had been holding back her emotions, finally relaxed. She lowered her head and sighed slowly.
“Kate.” Audrey looked at Kate who was standing beside her. “It’s just the two of us now.”
Kate’s eyes were filled with indescribable sadness.
After all, they had been together for so long that they had developed feelings for each other. Now that they were suddenly separated, no one could accept this fact.
Kate found his voice with some difficulty. “Don’t worry, Audrey. Just as you said, although we aren’t together, our hearts are still together.”
Audrey nodded and agreed.
When she returned to the dormitory, she realized that the way Barbara and Ross interacted was a little strange.
Barbara was obviously a n.o.ble lady. After being served by servants for a long time, she did not even know how to pack her own luggage. It was a mess and was left in a mess.
She was also trying her best to tidy up her own house, but she was always in a mess and very clumsy. No matter how hard she tried to fold a piece of clothing, she could not do it well. In the end, she could only leave it on the bed.
On the other hand, Ross, who was beside her, had not only tidied up the things on her bed, but she had also placed his luggage neatly on the side.
It was a stark contrast to Barbara.
When she heard the commotion from the door, Barbara looked up and met Audrey’s incredulous gaze.
Barbara’s pretty little face immediately turned red.
“No, it’s not like that. Actually, I’m doing my best to tidy up, but these dresses are really disobedient, so…”
She tried to defend herself, but her clumsy actions made her words seem unconvincing no matter what.
“Can you not be so clumsy? Really, even I can’t stand it anymore.” Ross raised the book in her hand and glanced at Barbara with some disdain.
Barbara immediately felt a little embarra.s.sed.
After all, she was really not good at such things. For some reason, Ross’ att.i.tude towards her was completely different from how she treated Audrey
She could clearly still have a good conversation with Audrey, but why did she become so cold every time she spoke to her.
This made Barbara start to wonder if she had accidentally offended her. After thinking about it, she felt that there was nothing wrong with her actions, so she could only give up.
“It’s alright. These clothes are difficult to deal with. Let me help you.” Audrey smiled.
Seeing Audrey pick up the messy clothes and start to tidy them up, Barbara’s expression immediately turned into grat.i.tude.
“Audrey, thank you so much. If it weren’t for you, I probably wouldn’t have been able to sleep in this bed today.”
Audrey only said faintly, “It’s alright. After all, as roommates, helping each other is the most important thing.”
Her words seemed to have a hidden meaning, but it was not obvious enough. Ross pretended not to have heard her and continued to immerse herself in his book.
In fact, at this moment, Ross had already begun to be interested in Audrey.
After all, their family and the Davis family were relatively close. In addition, the rumor that Patriarch Davis’ daughter was a good-for-nothing was very popular in Spark City, this also resulted in her not having a good impression of Audrey.
However, after hearing that she had come to partic.i.p.ate in the trial, Ross began to pay close attention to her. After all, it was well known that the trials of the Templar knights were very difficult. They had to go through many trials before they could enter completely.
Even Ross, who was addicted to cultivation all day, might have had an accident during the trial.
