"You are a wise woman, Your Majesty. I'm certain you asked yourself this question: who borrowed whose face?"
Aries secretly ground her teeth after Giselle's remarks. The latter's expression didn't change, but the sarcasm in the tone of her voice was apparent.
How dare she? How dare she provoke Aries by bringing up her family, whom she dragged into her wicked games?
Aries's fist trembled, forcing herself to keep it together.
"Are you truly concerned about what I'd feel? Or were you scared of the reaction you'd get from me?" Aries breathed out along with a dry and short laugh.
"If I am terrified, we wouldn't be here in the first place."
"I hope you won't regret your bravery." Aries breathed a jagged breath, facing ahead, and resuming her march. "You mentioned it yourself, after all. We are at the peak of no return. Whether this path turns red or black, we can only march forward."
