Chapter 61 Contents of the Pill

Little Fish, feeling the sting of pain, turned its head with its jaws wide open, ready to strike. But when it saw Charmaine, its demeanor completely changed. With a flick of its tail, it scurried away to a corner behind Emyr, opening its mouth to pant nervously.

It was clearly scared and muttering silent curses in its own way.

Emyr’s eyelid twitched at the sight. He turned his gaze to Charmaine, who stood there awkwardly. “Is this how you usually take care of my pet?”

Charmaine scratched her cheek, feigning innocence. “It was an accident! Maybe it just doesn’t like me?”

Emyr scoffed. “Doesn’t like you? That’s putting it lightly.”

Charmaine thought for a moment and revised her statement. “Alright, maybe it really hates me?”

Emyr didn’t hold back. “Judging by its reaction, I’d say it hates you with a passion.”

Charmaine puffed her cheeks in protest. “Stop exaggerating!”

Emyr responded with a cold chuckle. “Heh.”

Freya White, who had been standing by silently, watched the exchange between Eymr and a maid with growing disbelief.

She had known Emyr for over a decade, yet this was the first time she’d seen him acting like this. Despite his sharp words, there was no trace of disdain or irritation on his face. In fact, he seemed to be enjoying himself.

Her gaze shifted to Charmaine, who, without makeup or effort, radiated a natural charm. Freya’s instincts flared with a warning.
