Chapter 227: CHAPTER 227 – Sister?
Chapter 227: CHAPTER 227 – Sister?
Noctura's senses had grown stronger than they were three months ago, if before she could smell things better, now she could smell things that no one could smell.
Just like right now.
Alice and Ann were confused about the situation, but Noctura was confused as to why Number 1 or Cecil's blood and Clare's blood smelled the same.
She was confused about it, but since Alex didn't tell her why, she just waited for Luna's explanation.
After Luna said, "Before I explain what's going on, I would like to show you something…."
She walked close to unconscious Number 1 and removed her mask.
"Oh…." X2
Just as the mask was removed from Number 1's face, both Alice and Ann understood many things.
Number 1's looks were a ditto copy of Clare or more like a toned-down version of Clare.
Clare was more beautiful and mature, while Number 1 was a bit of an innocent type.
Unlike Clare's cold and emotionless eyes, Number 1's eyes were pretty normal.
Her eyes were not innocent and filled with naivety, she was an assassin after all, but there was some purity in her eyes, and her eyes showed that she still had some humanity left in them.
Clare's eyes were not like that.
Both of them had Onyx-colored eyes and Grey-colored hair, but Clare's eyes held no humanity, it was like she was willing to do anything if it could align with her interest, no matter what it was.
"As you can see, it seems like Number 1 and Clare over there are sisters-"
Luna who saw their expressions nodded her head and started explaining, but her words were cut off by Clare who looked at Luna coldly and spoke.
"Her name is Cecilia Gerenfled, not Number 1 and we are sisters-"
Clare didn't like the fact that Luna was calling her sister, Cecilia, Number 1, and she didn't like how Luna said that it seemed like they were sisters.
'We are sisters!'
She was a bit angry at Luna, not just about her words right now, but also about what Luna had done to Cecil, but her words were cut short as well.
But it was not Luna who cut her words…
"Nuh-uh, I gave you the chance to speak before but you didn't, so now please shut up and listen to what she is saying or you can just plug your ears if you don't want to listen."
Alex spoke with a frown.
He gave her two chances to speak before, but instead of answering what he asked for, she was busy with her own words, Alex didn't like that, but he kept quiet at that time.
But now when he asked the same question to Luna, and she was now explaining, Clare had no right to speak.
Clare shut her mouth as soon as Alex's voice was heard.
'Let's take it slow, I didn't come here to die….'
She spoke to herself and took a deep breath.
Clare knew what position she was in right now.
She came here unannounced, and she was going to make a request, all of that after what she had done, and who she worked for.
'It's already a relief that he didn't just kill me….'
Clare sighed again before she spoke.
"I am sorry, I spoke out of the line."

She bowed her head.
"You should be apologizing to Luna."
Luna was already on cloud nine, even before Alex asked Clare to apologize to her.
'He is defending me!'
'He's taking my side!'
All of these things were new to Luna because all she got in the past few months was either being ignored or getting a straight no as an answer.
'This feels good…'
'Him defending me feels really good….'
So, for her, what Alex was doing right now was more than what she could hope for.
Clare looked at Luna only to find her smiling to herself.
She gritted her teeth.
Out of all the people, Luna was the last one she wanted to apologize to, after all, Luna was the one responsible for the situation her sister was in.
'Let's not judge too quickly…'
But she soon calmed down.
"I am sorry."
Being an assassin for a long time had taught her one thing, 'Don't always believe what things seem to be'.
So, she decided to listen to Luna's end of the story.
Luna who was jumping with happiness, didn't even focus much on Clare's words, she just waved her hand.
"It's fine."
But as Luna was busy smiling to herself, Number 1 or Cecilia's eyes trembled a bit.
"Ughh…"
A low groan was heard, causing everyone to look at the source of the voice.
All of them saw the unconscious Cecilia trying to sit up straight on the sofa.
Clare wanted to rush toward her sister to help her, but before that, she looked toward Alex who seemed to be looking at her as well.
'Please…'
Clare didn't say anything, she just looked at him pleadingly.
Alex stared at her for a millisecond, but that millisecond seemed like an hour to Clare before she saw Alex nod his head.
'Thank you!'
Clare thanked Alex inwardly before she rushed toward Cecilia.
Cecilia, who saw Clare in front of her had her eyes wide open as she asked disbelievingly.
"Sister?"
"Yes, it's me, Cecil…."
For the first time, Clare had a real smile on her face as she gently scoped Cecil into a hug.
"Is that really you, sister…...?"
Cecilia asked as tears started to fill her eyes.
"Yes, it's me, Cecil, it's me…"
Clare smiled gently as she patted Cecil's back.
*Sob**Sob*
In just a second, the sobbing sound of Cecil was heard before she burst into tears.
"Waaaaaaa!"
Clare moved closer to Cecil and hugged her tighter, letting Cecil cry her heart out.
"Well, that proves that they are sisters…."
Alice spoke as she looked at Luna with a smirk.
But Luna just smiled in response.
She wasn't going to argue with Alice today, she was just that happy.
"Tch."
Alice just clicked her tongue and looked away after not getting the response she was hoping to get.
Alice could see that Luna was happy, and she could also tell the reason why she was happy, and Alice somehow felt annoyed by it.
But since Luna didn't respond to her taunt, she didn't say anything else and just snuggled closer to Alex.
Alex just smiled as he wrapped his arm around her waist letting her get closer, and Ann who saw this raised a brow before she grabbed Alex's hand and placed it on her waist as well.
'Better.'
She muttered inwardly as she snuggled closer just like Alice.
*Chuckle*
Alex just chuckled while shaking his head.
'Not that I hate it…'
But then he just shrugged inwardly.
All of them waited for Cecil to stop crying since they had a lot to talk about and explain about….
