Chapter 27 Who Are You?

• ~Ivan~
• It’s been hard lately, but I wouldn’t change anything. My love has been by my side, and I’m eternally grateful. She’s been keeping her distance, but I’d rather have her here and keeping away than to be away from me.
• That damn gremlin was in here again, messing with her. I would end him, but he’s been vital to my survival all this time. I heard their conversation, and I didn’t like it. I don’t need her to be pressured into anything. I want her to accept me on her own and not because she’s forced to. “I’m sorry about him. He tends to speak without thinking. I will make sure he stays out of here so you won’t have to worry about him anymore.” Aida doesn’t respond, but I didn’t expect her to. I just want her to know I didn’t send him here to say anything to her. It’s important that she sees me in a favorable light.
