“No, none of us blame you.”

Bernice said, “But Astrid…”

“Don’t drag Astrid into this unnecessarily, she never blamed you,” Elio chimed in.

Seeing Astrid leaving, Parrish said to Clyde, “Clyde, you and Odell escort Ms. Bernice back. I’ll protect Astrid.”

“Wait, she doesn’t need your protection! You just want to hang out with her!” Clyde grumbled, but he didn’t follow. He was worried about Odell and Bernice encountering danger on their own.
