While Alex gently massaged her foot, he mentally compared it to Sera's. Three minutes passed without him even realizing it.
Clara, on the other hand, was dumbfounded.
Seriously? I gathered up all this courage to stick my foot out, and you're really just giving me a simple foot rub?!
Watching Alex focus intently on massaging her foot, without making any other moves, Clara suddenly felt a flutter of happiness inside.
At the very least, she didn't dislike this man.
As for feelings... those could be developed slowly later. There wasn't time for that now. She just had to get on the train first and buy the ticket later.
It's all that psycho's fault. Everything is because of that psycho... Clara mentally blamed everything on Eric Vaughn, who was likely still in the hospital undergoing crotch surgery performed by those five 'experts'.
And just like that, a world where only Eric Vaughn suffered was achieved.
