Just as Noel realized what was happening by piecing together all the clues he had, someone suddenly turned the doorknob.
He reflexively turned around, surprised not by the knock on the door, but by the fact that the door was Alastair's balcony door.
The room was on the third floor of the Vale family mansion. How could someone be trying to open the balcony door from the outside?
"Who's there?" Noel asked as he walked toward the balcony door and saw the shadow of someone standing right in front of it.
At first, the person didn't answer, only trying to knock on the door as quietly as possible so that no one but Noel would hear. It was as if he was trying to ask the Omega to open the door before anyone else noticed his presence.
As soon as Noel opened the thin curtain covering the balcony door, he was surprised to find his old friend Dalton standing there.
"Dalton? What are you doing here?" he asked in surprise.
