Chapter 118: GIFT

Inside, there was also a feast. Kadatuan from the different islands were having their colonial argument. Despite their loud voices, they still went silent every time the Rajah would talk. Beside them, their wives were silently listening to the men's conversation.

Yanarym was bored as stone, listening to these men's intrepid conversation where a woman was only allowed to listen and not to talk. She would rather stay in the room that was given to them than hang around here. Fearing that she might get identified by the female lead and male lead. 

Fortunately, Maki was not inside the balay. Only Tala and Lapil were in the room who was having a cold ambiance between them. Yanarym doesn't care, however, she was guarding them just in case something would happen. That was why she noticed Tala stealing glances at Lapil, while Lapil was grinning and socializing but obviously, his attention was nowhere in this room.
