章 187: Her Old Ways, Her Old Naivety

Trust? Can I truly trust you completely, Bright? I'm not sure. You don't think that you're asking too much from me?

— Emma

==========

Emma listened to Bright's words, feeling a mixture of disbelief and realization washing over her.

He was right.

Despite being in a different world now, she was still clinging to her old ways, her old naivety.

"I still can't believe why would someone want to harm me?" Emma asked, her voice tinged with confusion and fear.

Bright sighed, his expression grave. "Emma, in the world of politics and royalty, motives can be complex and often hidden. It could be jealousy, ambition, or even a desire to destabilize our alliance. Whatever the reason, we must remain vigilant and trust no one but each other."

Emma nodded, she had to adapt quickly to this new reality, where every move could be a calculated risk.
