As Louis stepped in front of the desk and faced the captain, both the captain and Shiao Yi turned their faces toward him. Their expressions were flat and unreadable, like cold steel.
It looked like a ventriloquist and his puppet.
Louis had known Dominic since the man first joined the knight order. They had known each other a long time. And yet, at that moment, Louis realized—he didn't understand the captain at all.
This was a man who had always pushed people away. Someone who lived with a wall of indifference around him. So why, all of a sudden, was he acting like this? It was clear the captain had feelings for Shiao Yi and only Shiao Yi—but even so, wasn't this going way too far?
Was that it? Did he just have no experience with this kind of thing? Does he have no immunity at all?
Even so… isn't he being a bit too careless about how this looks to everyone else?
—Ahh, what a troublesome, inconsiderate man.
