Capítulo 101: A Love Affair

“You ran into Prince Kin? Where?” Ren asked, his eyes never leaving my face as he watched my every reaction.

“I met him…in the garden of the inner court…around my palace,” I replied honestly.

“So, you’re telling me that you coincidentally met my brother in the gardens of my inner court? Is that correct?” Ren asked, his eyes narrowing suspiciously.

“Yes…” I replied. It was the truth so what else could I say. However, now that Ren had repeated my statement to me, it sounded very suspicious even to my own ears.

“I see. Tell me, have you seen these things before?” Ren asked as he took out some items that were wrapped in silk cloth.

My eyes widened when I saw the items that he had just placed on the table in front of me. They were all presents and letters from Prince Kin that he had sent to me. How did Ren find these? Did he search my room?

“Yes. I’ve seen then before,” I replied, knowing full well what this must look like to Ren.

“Tell me about them,” Ren commanded.
