HER ANSWER
"…It was scary, Nica. So scary." Arthur groaned as he explained.
Veronica closed her eyes. "How am I supposed to believe you? I've seen with my eyes. Do you have any proof?"
After being betrayed by the people she trusted, again and again, she lost the ability to believe anyone.
Arthur thought for a while and then said, "I'm going to bring Darius. Wait here. You can finish your meal first."
"You are not going to lock me up again, are you?" Veronica turned around and stared at his eyes.
"I won't. I promise," Arthur hastily gave his word.
Veronica's eyes became sharper. "Don't disappoint me, Arthur. I'm not the kind of person who trusts people easily like before."
In the blink of an eye, Arthur vanished, leaving her in the corridor. Veronica went back to the bedroom and freshened up. By the time she dressed up and came out of the bathroom, Arthur came back with Darius.
