The carriage suddenly fell silent.
Sophie and Annie's gazes followed Anna's, all focusing on Lian.
Lian rubbed his throbbing temples. "It's just part of the cleanup. You've all been through cleanups before, so you should understand, right?"
"Of course."
Having received a satisfactory answer, Anna withdrew her gentle gaze.
Sophie and Annie also looked away.
"Once Catherine officially returns to Blue Moon Territory and becomes its Lord, we will hold our wedding."
'So, your time to confess is running out.'
'Hurry up, or else I'll be a married man.'
Lian added inwardly.
The three women showed little reaction upon hearing this.
Sophie looked at her fish tank and poked the small, black tadpole with her finger.
Annie took out the dagger from her thigh and wiped it with a silk cloth.
Anna opened a thick book and began to read it intently.
The carriage fell silent once more.
