Her silence only fueled Watt Bennet's anger further.
However, in front of others, he didn't explode at Summer Sutton.
"Leave with me now, and I won't ask any questions." His face cold, he turned his gaze to her once more.
Yet, Summer Sutton just stood there, silent.
All her medicine was still in the castle; she couldn't leave yet!
Her silence reignited the anger Watt had just swallowed.
"Summer Sutton!" He gritted his teeth, growling her name softly.
Summer didn't dare look at his expression; her face hung low, "I owe someone a lot, I can't go back with you now."
"What do you owe?" Watt pressed.
Summer Sutton remained silent in response to his question.
She owed Manuel Ink a lot.
Owed him several lives, owed him for disregarding Old Master Ink's orders to help her steal herbs, owed him for assisting her on multiple occasions.
Manuel Ink had never asked for any repayment, but that didn't mean she could justifiably enjoy all his help!
