Taming The Villainesses

Chapter 141.2

(EP-141.2) #1

141 – Pincer #1

Mirna seemed to have a plan of her own to build a bridge with the Belhawk Family. It was quite smart to find a breakthrough in a crisis and turn it into an opportunity.

Mirna continued.

“Theo Gospel, I’m sorry I misunderstood you.”

This time, I could actually feel the sincerity in her apology. She also sounded much calmer compared to before.

Seureuk.

“Well then, can you sit here?”

I patted the seat right next to the sofa I was sitting on. Meanwhile, hearing such a sudden request, Mirna’s hair stood upright in surprise.

“Wh, what are you going to do if someone sees?”

“Who would see us? It’s just us here on the second floor-.”

I pointed with my finger to the screens surrounding our seats.

“Everything is blocked from view.”

“But....”

“Then should I go over there?”

I got up from my seat and sat next to Mirna. The fragrance emanating from her was refreshing, like a cool breeze.Diiscover new stories at novelhall.com

It smelled like apple mint.

Was it the scent of shampoo or a special perfume?

Anyway, that wasn’t important right now.

What was important would be the uncertain and apologetic Mirna becoming restless for other reasons.

“Miss Mirna, may I hold your hand?”

“.......”

Mirna didn’t say anything. But after a moment, she timidly nodded her head ever so slightly.

“I didn’t tell anyone. Besides, there’s no one else here but us.”

“Hu-.”

Mirna seemed relieved that I hadn’t revealed the secret to anyone.

If the fact that Mirna had engaged in intimacy with a man before the wedding spread, it would bring various consequences to the devout Draco Family. So I could understand.

Then Mirna suddenly narrowed her eyebrows, as if she just thought of something.

“Are you absolutely sure you haven’t told anyone?”

“Are you doubting me again? After you just apologized earlier?”

“... No, that’s not it.”

Mirna was startled and mumbled in justification.

“It’s just that, lately, Lady Lioness keeps mentioning premarital chastity in front of me, and it’s getting quite strange. She’s not even a devout follower. I wondered if you had said something....”

... That Elga. I’d deal with her later.

With a desire for revenge against Elga burning inside me, I casually shook my head, pretending to know nothing.

“I haven’t said a word.”

“Really? You haven’t told anyone, not even Lady Lioness or Queen Tarantera? You haven’t said anything during the Sunday worship confession?”

“... Really. If Mirna-nim still doesn’t believe me this time, I don’t have anything more to say.”

Seuk.

I tried to withdraw my hand that was holding Mirna’s, but she tightly held onto it and didn’t let go.

“I-I believe you. I didn’t misunderstand. I was just curious, that’s all!”

Mirna babbled in a highly flustered manner. At this point, it went beyond being annoying and started to feel cute.

Then, she soon let out a sigh, as if lamenting her situation.

“I also don’t know why I’m acting like this. I don’t want to. But I keep getting obsessed with you, Theo Gospel.”
