"Isn't that a good thing? Don't tell me you want to see me dying because of you guys," said Noelle.
Carl answered emotionally, "That wasn't what I meant. Instead, I'm glad you've changed. I just wanted to ask you if you had the same dream."
She pursed her lips and said nothing.
Then, he added, "I don't mean you any harm, and maybe all these only happened in the other timeline. However, we all have different perspectives, and I'm sure our dreams were different. If we can exchange information about our dreams, we might be able to find some new discoveries."
Noelle couldn't tell if he had a dream or was reborn like her. She just said calmly, "There's no point to it."
"Why would there be no point? A lot has happened to the people around you, and I'm sure you have had your suspicions as well, right? Besides, Frank had the same dream, too."
"Frank?" she asked in surprise.
"Yeah, but his dream wasn't complete, and it was in fragments. Unlike him, ours are complete."
Upon hearing that, Noelle became even more surprised, wondering if that was the butterfly effect her rebirth had caused.
She fell silent, not knowing what to say next. At first, she thought it was her own little secret. To her surprise, she wasn't the only one who knew about it.
Then, Carl said, "Noelle, you don't have to be so wary of me. I just want to help you. At first, I didn't take the dream seriously either.
"After everything in the dream came true, I realized what it meant. However, you had already cut ties with the Liddells."
When Noelle heard that, she figured Carl's rebirth was much later than hers. However, she still couldn't be certain if he was reborn or if he only had a dream.
She looked at him and asked, "Well, what happened after I died in your dream?"
Since his rebirth was later than hers, she figured he would know about what happened next.
