章節 67: Detention

"I didn't intend to save the woman," Eve admitted honestly. "It wasn't part of the rules, plain and simple. Besides, I was losing too much blood, and saving her didn't cross my mind."

"You..." Ophelia began, clearly taken aback by Eve's lack of concern. "The Prince is not someone to be underestimated."
