บท 389: My kids are adorable, even if they were snitches

I could see the brewing anger, and all I could do at this point was drag him out of the drawing room. I didn't care if the others looked at us weirdly--I needed to extinguish the cold fire first. 

Entering a random empty bedroom, I pushed Natha to the nearest armchair while Ignis lit the fireplace to warm the room and gave us a bit of light. I stood in front of him and held my waist. My initial purpose of taking him here was to quell his anger, but on the way, I got quite annoyed. 

"What did you mean back then?" I frowned slightly in confusion. "Are you saying that J--the Hero likes me?"

"Seems like I truly have to spell it for you to realize," Natha threw his gaze away like a petulant child.

Which only got me more annoyed. "What are you talking about? How could he like me? It hadn't even been twenty-four hours since we met!"
