Nora, who had been set as an imaginary enemy, didn’t give two hoots about whether Epson’s experimental project was successful or not. When she returned home, she found the house pretty lively.
When she pushed open the door and entered, she saw an uninvited guest-Rene.
Rene still looked as timid as ever and her head was lowered.
However, she had taken a bath, so her hair was a lot smoother. There wasn’t a bad smell on her anymore either. Although her clothes were plain-and even had patches in some places—they were clean.
Cherry was offering her snacks to her. “Rene, try it! Don’t be afraid! It’s delicious!”
Rene was so frightened that she pushed the snack back to her. “N-no, it’s okay. I don’t eat them…”
“Have some! It’s fine, I can’t finish so many snacks anyway, yeah!”
Cherry’s large eyes blinked, she smiled and said again.
Rene shook her hands again.
Cherry didn’t press any further. The moment she took away the snacks, Nora saw Rene breathe a sigh of relief-obviously, she was scared of socializing.
But since she was so afraid of socializing, why was she here?
While she was thinking about it, when Rene saw her enter, she was so shocked that she immediately stood up. “M-M-Ms. Smith.”
“… I’m not M-M-Ms. Smith. My name is Lisa.”
Rene was stunned for a moment.
Nora’s voice was still as low as ever as she said, “Well, just kidding. You don’t have to call me Ms. Smith, you can just call me Lisa.”
A touch of gentleness flashed across Rene’s eyes when she sensed her kindness.
People who lived in a world filled with malice would be grateful for every little bit of kindness that others showed them. That was exactly how Rene looked at the moment, grateful.
She lowered her head and whispered, “I… I’m here to thank you.”
“For?”
While asking, Nora looked at Xander.
