Walter closed his eyes, took a deep breath to steady his mind, and then nodded slightly. "It''s me," he said.


    Then he added, "Have you been here all these years?"


    Appara nodded, also somewhat excited. "Yes, I''ve been waiting here. Finally, you''ve returned."


    His ugly face looked even more terrifying when he got excited, like a ghost about to devour someone.


    Walter slowly raised his hand, paused in the air for a moment, and finally ced it on the man''s shoulder. "You''ve worked hard."


    Appara created all those rumors of haunting. With a face like that, who wouldn''t be scared?


    Even Walter himself was shocked when he saw Appara just now; he almost didn''t recognize him.


    "Not hard; the one who''s worked hard is you," said Appara.


    Walter remained silent for a long time with lowered eyes. He saw the burns on Appara''s exposed arms.


    It was hard to imagine how he survived with such extensive burns.


    As the two were talking, Quinn also walked out of the house. Appara was startled when he saw Quinn.


    Quinn had been here for a day and a night. He had tried to scare her, but she seemed a bit slow-witted. Although she was scared, she didn''t run away.


    After hiding in this room, she crouched in the corner, covering her ears and eyes as if ying dead.


    Appara walked around in front of her several times, but she kept her eyes tightly shut, giving a feeling of turning a deaf ear, pretending not to see, stubbornly staying in the corner, refusing to leave no matter what.


    In the end, he softened and gave her some food. Then she refused to leave, eagerly waiting for him to give her more food.


    Appara asked, "Who is she?"


    "She''s Quinn," said Walter.


    Appara was astonished; his gaze fell on Quinn from head to toe. He seemed somewhat doubtful. "She''s grown up so much."All content is ? N0velDrama.Org.


    With a sardonic glint in his eyes, Walter remarked, "Isn''t she? She''s been married twice, you know. Should she die?"

    Appara fell silent for a moment before sighing, "It''s not her fault; after all, she was young back then."


    Walter nced at Quinn and Quinn stared at them, still looking confused.


    She was no longer afraid of the ugly Appara; he gave her food, he was a good person, and she felt a bit sorry for him.


    "Quinn,e here." Walter beckoned to her.


    Quinn hesitated, then walked up to him.


    Walter held her chin, making her look at Appara. "Remember him? Do you know who he is?"


    Quinn''s gaze lingered on Appara''s face. She remained silent for a moment and then shook her head slightly.


    "His name is Appara," said Walter.


    Quinn nodded, silently remembering this name.


    After seeing the confusion in her eyes, Walter''s face showed a hint of anger, and he pushed Quinn away with his hand.


    Quinn stumbled a bit and hit the wall before steadying herself.


    "Walter." Appara showed some concerns.


    Walter sneered. "Don''t worry. Anyway, she''ll soon forget."


    "What do you mean?" asked Appara.


    Walter said, "You don''t need to worry about it."


    Appara fell silent, didn''t pursue further, and changed the subject. "How do you suddenlye back?"


    Walter chuckled. "Thanks to Alexander, if he hadn''t called me, I might never have had the courage to set foot in this ce." "Alexander? The Kennedys family in Amber Bay?" asked Appara.
