With how domineering his voice was, everyone couldn’t help but stare at the masked man walking straight toward Xavia… Though his clothes were casual at best, he was still able to exude a powerful aura…
Regardless, once he was standing before Xavia, one of the women couldn’t help but ask, “…U-um… And you are…?”
“I’m her elder brother. I don’t know who you mistook her for, but she isn’t who you’re looking for,” growled the man before pulling Xavia away with him…
It was only after they arrived at a safe spot that the handsome man finally removed his mask… And there Mark was, protecting her again… It was just like in the old days… In the end, the grateful woman snapped out of it when she heard him ask, “Are you alright…?”
“…I’m fine. Thanks for saving me… Had they learned of who I was, I would’ve definitely gotten into more trouble…”
“I’d say… You have the rain to thank, since I was motivated to come over with this umbrella here… That aside, did you get to meet up with him?”
Upon hearing that, Xavia couldn’t help but lower her gaze. Looking out at the pouring rain, she eventually muttered, “…I asked to meet up through the airport’s broadcast system… And by this point, I’m wondering whether he even heard it… Regardless, you can head back if you want, Mark… I’ll wait for a bit longer…”
Though Mark really didn’t want to hurt the already saddened woman, he glanced at his watch for a bit… before ultimately sighing as he replied, “…By this point, he’s probably already left…”
“…Not necessarily… He may have heard it, and he may still be trying to find me… Or… Or he could be testing my sincerity and considering whether he should give me another chance to explain myself…! Yeah… E-either way, I’ll be waiting for him here…” muttered the inconsolable woman.
