Chapter 33: Standing her ground

When Aries opened her eyes, Abel's lower face was the first she saw. She carefully closed her eyes once again, breathing out. She could still feel a slight headache. So, she wanted to pretend to be asleep since she wasn't ready to lose her brain cells talking to him.

'He made me drink poison.' She thought, not even surprised at this point. 'But... he said he drank it. If that paltry amount almost killed me, why was he alive? Whoever made that poison underestimate this lunatic. Weeds never perish.'

Perhaps it was because Aries knew she could die any moment in this place for no reason. That was why she felt nothing in particular. Well, she was relieved to wake up despite consuming poisoned tea.
