The Unveiled Rose novel Chapter 29

I had had enough of bending over backward, so my voice was ice-cold. "But I don't see where I went wrong."

At that, Leander stood up abruptly.

Ignoring him, I turned to head back to my room.

"Amara!" Just then, Luna called out.

I turned to look at her.

She looked breathtaking, even with just a hint of makeup and her hair casually tied up.

Seeing I wasn't paying her any attention, she hurriedly said, "I only made breakfast for four today... I'm sorry. Usually, they'd swing by my place for breakfast, and I just forgot for a moment that we're not at my place..."

As she spoke, Luna lowered her gaze with tears shimmering in her eyes, looking irresistibly pitiful.

"You didn't do anything wrong!" Leander couldn't stand seeing Luna cry. "You don't have to apologize to her."

Tears fell as Luna looked sorrowfully. "But Amara doesn't like me. She might berate me if I don't ask for her forgiveness. Last night, she took over my room, and today..."

She glanced at me sneakily as she spoke.

The insinuation was clear...that I was out to get her.

I saw it all and etched it into my memory.

When all those sinister deeds she'd done were brought to light, I'd reappear before her just to see if she could twist truths and provoke me as seamlessly as today.

Leander was clearly taken in by her act. "Amara, look at you, why can't you be more understanding like Luna? She's done nothing wrong, is willing to step back, and even apologizes to you proactively! And you? You took over her room last night, scaring her... Don’t you feel the slightest bit guilty?"

Leander glared at me reproachfully.

I was on the verge of rolling my eyes. After all this, was he trying to pin a baseless charge on me?
