“Maybe she didn’t run away from home, but went out with a purpose? With a lover she had for a long time.”

 

“It’s obvious just from the rumors. She’s so crazy about men.”

 

“I get annoyed every time I hear that rustic southern accent. Why does it sound so barbaric?”

Although Freya’s poisoning attempt seemed to have been buried to some extent thanks to my runaway disturbance, I knew that there was still public opinion about me and my family.

 

I won’t be able to pry or reveal anything openly.

“M-My…”

 

They looked blankly at me, shedding crocodile tears.

 

“I, I, I…”

 

“Woo–”
