Chapter 22-1

Hanette looks at Sion with troubled expression.

It must have been because he wanted to somehow pay off the debt he owed her.

Just having that kind of feeling was enough, but why did he become so forceful?

Hes a nice guy. Hes also good-looking, to be honest.

Hanette chuckled at the thought she had heard before.

He was very handsome, polite, and even kind.

At that time, she tried to deny it, but only now I was able to accept it.

Are you having fun doing this? I wish you would finish it quickly. Sion

Its not fun. Why are you being stubborn? Hanette

Are you telling me to live with debt for the rest of my life?

Just think of it as if 80 gold coins fell from the sky.

I can only laugh if its just a joke.

Does it sound like a joke to you?

Sion feels tired and frowns.

It was her hard-earned money, but yet Hanette refused to accept it.

Maybe, she guessed how he had gotten the money.

How long are you going to keep doing this?

If you give up, its over, but youre still holding on, arent you?

It will end once you my sister accepts it.

How would I know where the money came from? Since I didnt lend it to you, just take it and stop this.

Its your hard-earned money, right? Then Please.

Oh, Im not going to take it?

Just take it!

Sion pushed the envelope forward with a raised voice, reluctantly.

Sion hesitated for a moment before closing his mouth.

He couldnt deny that one fact.

If Hanette hadnt followed him to the auction house, he would have never won the bid for the Demon Gloves.

Are you feeling guilty? You seem quiet. Hanette

I have to admit it. Sion

Yeah, thats right. Be grateful and think carefully in the future. Ive done something generous for someone three years younger than me. Hanette

I guess you want me to act awkwardly every time we meet, huh? Thank you, though. Sion

Now you seem more like yourself. Keep it up in the future. I feel burdened when you act like this. Hanette

Im worried about who will put up with that attitude of yours. Ugh Sion

Sion looks at her with pity, shaking his head.

Hanette smiles back at him.

Because someone is in front of me, I have high expectations. Hanette

Do you have plans to marry me? Sion

Thats the question I wanted to ask. Hanette

Dont answer a question with a question. Just answer. Sion

A question is also an answer. Hanette

You dont have the confidence to answer. Sion

Think what you want. I have no regrets. Hanette

Im sure. With no one standing in your way, what could you regret? Sion

Then you can just stop me from regretting it. Hanette

Hanette takes a step forward with a glance.

Sion follows behind slowly with a disappointed expression.

Hes really handling it well. He received money because of someone else Hes quite a fianc.
