Chapter 361 - Another candidate (2/2)

”I thought you two would be hungry.”

”Himuro, take this tray over.”

The blonde-haired man immediately took it from the girl, and Zepher clasped hold of Lyn's hands. ”It's all red now...”

Lyn laughed, ”Brother, I'm fine.”

Andrew observed the two. Maybe, just maybe he made a mistake. In the past, the reason why he was so against it was one they were raised as siblings. Two, the look in Zepher's eyes. Back then, he had the eyes of a beast about to devour his prey. But now? The look in Zepher's eyes is so very gentle. Maybe he really did misunderstand things. It doesn't seem like Zepher will harm Lyn. This may be an unexpectedly good match. What's more, unlike Allen, Zepher knows how to interact with Lyn properly.

He shook his head; he shouldn't go overboard.

.....

”Eh, King John did?” Lyn said, surprised. Andrew decided to stay longer and update the girl on the current events in the Mist Kingdom.

He couldn't miss how she flinched when she said the name, King John.

”Indeed, he said he would contribute to the cause under your name.”

”King John?” Zepher mumbled. ”That's the creepy guy right, what does he have to do with Lyn?”

Andrew quickly explained things. But as expected, just the mere mention of what happened would make anybody related to Lyn angry. Sure enough, a look of fury appeared on Zepher's face after he said those words. The air turned cold.

Lyn reached over and clung to Zepher, ”Brother, don't be angry. I won't say I'm okay or anything. But, right now, it's okay. I have you and everybody else. So he won't try to harm me again.”

”..I understand,” Zepher murmured. ”But, I still wish I knew about it... Wasn't that before I left, you should have told me.”

”I didn't want to disturb you, brother; you were very busy then.”

These two can really get lost in their world. Has Lyn adjusted to acting as his wife? But then again, maybe this is normal. He never saw how the two interacted with each other.

”As you know, that charity fund you set up for the village was being well received. The fact that he decided to contribute to it drew a lot of attention. Many people are speculating things...”

Lyn sighed, ”Whether or not they speculate things. Has he gone down and helped? Both Kazuya and Rhys have interacted with the villagers and helped the sick ones. Just donating a large amount of money won't make him look benevolent. Nor will it change my impression of him.”

Andrew had to admit that the girl's words surprised him. While he knew his sister wasn't the naive and innocent girl, he once thought. It still surprised him.

”But, I guess he thinks this is enough to curry favor with the people?”

Andrew nodded.

”There are many who are grateful towards him. The amount of money he donated is no small sum, after all.”

”How foolish they are being tricked without realizing it.”
