Chapter 266 - Lets go sailing! (1/2)

Aleksis had been in his house for a week and their relationship had become closer, especially since they spent a lot of time in the library reading and working together. The girl no longer felt reluctant to ask questions about her savior.

She was curious because she had not seen his family; not even a photo on the wall of the house.

”Uhm... Where is your family, Big brother?” Aleksis asked, observing the various books on the shelves. She tried to make her questions sound as casual as possible. ”Are they abroad?”

The young man, whose face always looked so gentle, was suddenly surrounded by a dark aura. Aleksis immediately regretted asking him about his family; it seemed to inflict a wound on her savior's heart.

”I have no family,” he replied, unwilling to prolong the conversation. He again busied himself with his laptop and paid no attention to Aleksis.

”Sorry if I offended you...” Aleksis pinched herself. Now it was clear that family was a sensitive topic for this young man. Maybe he somehow lost his family.

Aleksis tried to lighten the atmosphere by talking about her own family. ”I remember now that I have two younger siblings. Their names are London and Rune. Maybe you can do a search with that information...”

The young man raised his face from the laptop, ”London and Rune? Your brothers' names are unusual. Can you remember your name already?”

Aleksis shook her head.

”I can only remember Uncle Rory and my two younger siblings... Can't you find information from those three names?”

”Hmm... unfortunately not. I need your last name, or at least, the name of your parents... or your uncle's full name.”

Aleksis shook her head. ”Uhm... how about we sail as originally planned? I might be able to remember more things if I went out of the house and do the things I am used to doing...”

The young man turned to the window to see the weather outside. He then walked to the terrace and raised his hand in the air, then nodded, ”The weather is good. It won't rain at all tomorrow. We can sail.”

”Great! Shall we go now?” Aleksis asked happily.

”Ahahaha... you're too excited. Hm... okay, prepare your gear, then wait for me in the living room in an hour. I need to finish a little work.”
