“Lisha, I’m sad to see you locked up, unable to go anywhere and even see the people you want to see!”
“Do you know I’ve gone to see Jagoan, the commander-in-chief of Dorodo’s city defense army? He’s very hospitable. He not only made tea for me but also said he would be my bodyguard in the future. He was so eager that I was embarrassed to refuse. But he’s from Dorodo after all. He can’t remain in Crosac forever, so I rejected him. Lisha, are you upset? Do you want to cry?
“Cry if you want. I won’t laugh at you… No, I might laugh at you a bit and save your face.” With that said, Aria snickered, utterly smug.
However, Lisha remained unfazed as if she had not heard Aria’s words.
After a long time, Lisha finally said flatly, “Doesn’t it feel good to boast?”
Lisha would not believe Aria had met Jagoan. She knew what Jagoan was like.
Jagoan was straightforward to all women as if they owed him five million dollars.
The impressive statement, “Women only affect how fast I can draw my sword.” was said by him in front of Shirley and herself.
How could such a proud and indifferent man make tea for Aria himself and also offer to become her bodyguard?
Aria was even bad at boasting!
Seeing that Lisha easily saw through her lie, Aria did not panic.
She snorted coldly and said, “Lisha, you asked Jagoan to assassinate me and injured Lowich, and that’s the truth. I know you want to deny it, but deny it all you want…”
“Dad won’t believe you. I can predict that you’ll be locked up in this room forever and imprisoned for the rest of your life. Even if I became mayor, I wouldn’t let you out!”
“Lisha, surrender and give in to me if you want to continue living in Crosac. You’re my sister after all. I won’t make it too bad for you. All I want is the position of the mayor of Crosac. I’m not interested in anything else.”
Hearing Aria’s words, Lisha remained unfazed.
He looked back in a certain direction, it was where Jagoan’s room was.
