Bab 726: The Need For Humans

Akira sat down beside him, having no idea of the thoughts going through Damien's head as she said, "But…whenever we are before other people, you have to call me 'Mistress'. I know you are the last person who needs to call me that, but you must have heard the conversation between me and that fellow named Khun, right?"

Damien narrowed his gaze as he nodded, "Yes…I have to live here as your slave, right?"

Akira fixed her gaze on him as she strongly said, "I would never treat you as a slave, but…you understand the situation, right? I can't reveal who you are without causing a huge stir that might very well make us both end up in trouble."

Damien said with a reassuring smile, "It's fine, aunt. I have lived in way worse conditions. Surely, living as a fake slave is nothing," Damien thought about how he even lived as Lily's gardener and actually enjoyed his time there, especially since he was busy falling in love with her.
