Bab 592: This is just a coincidence... right?

Since the selection had started and Aries made acquaintance with Suzanne, Veronika, and Sybil, she only then felt stuck in a cobweb of lies. She was no saint, and lying for her own good was never a problem. Even when she deceived not just the entire Haimirich Empire for claiming to be Daniella Circe Vandran, Aries never had a problem with it. 

It was the same when she returned to the Maganti Empire as Daniella Circe Vandran, betrothed to the crown prince, Joaquin Imperial. Aries was one of those who weaved all these webs of lies to be told in the history for the next generation to know. 

But now… these lies had been prickling under her skin. The princesses were good to her; they might not be perfect and they might have different opinions on different matters, but Aries considered them her friends. 

Therefore, the guilt weighing her heart down whenever she would have to lie right in front of their faces was paralyzing. But she didn't have a choice.
