Chapter 25 (1/2)

“Are you talking about Sensuality Within the Mist?”

“Ah, n, no! Definitely not!”

Sensuality Within the Mist

The title was too embarrassing to even say out loud. This novel – the novel that stole the hearts of all the women in the Empire and the first step of erotic novels. In other words, it was Vivian’s novel.

Just why is this here!

She wanted to throw the book onto the floor and pretend she didn’t exist, but Ray’s gaze had already focused entirely on her. Though the hood completely covered his eyes, she could feel his stare on her blatantly.

“It seems like I brought the wrong book with me.”

That was true. Unless she had gone completely mad, why would Vivian erotic novel in front of the man she liked? Not to mention, she was the author of the book.

She had only brought along this book to her job to make sure her scenes in her manuscript didn’t overlap with each other. She had left it on the counter thinking who would care to even look at it, but she hadn’t predicted she’d have mistaken it for the novel she currently read and brought it with her.

“This is a mistake. Let’s pretend nothing happened just now. Please forget it all.”

The flustered Vivian attempted memory manipulation.

“Hmm.”

Of course, it didn’t work.

“You ask for the impossible. It is the psychology of people to clearly remember things when they’re told to forget it instead.”

“…….”

“Even if you brought it with you on accident, it still remains that it is your book, correct?”

“Indeed, t…. that is true.”

In many words, it was her book. Her shoulders flinched after she felt needlessly guilty and muttered quietly in a slight tone of voice.
