A Fake Concubine Was Caught by the Tyrant

Chapter 40

Helen couldn’t see Mar’s face because she hugged him tightly.

Mar’s eyes began to sparkle with lunacy and intense obsession.

“I wasn’t the one to be blamed.”

Mar could barely repress his feelings and wrapped his arms around Helen’s waist, hugging her tightly.

“I understand….”

“And it wasn’t your mistake either.”

Mar’s voice was low, almost sounding like a growl. He was frustrated, but it seemed like he was doing his hardest to be patient.

‘Right. If I had thought of it that way, it would have been silly.’

She held onto him last night because she was enjoying it, but this time she was trying to justify it.

But there was nothing she could do. The Emperor couldn’t let it slide after he discovered the man was having an affair with one of his concubines.

Or would he punish her for cheating and doing things she shouldn’t?

Either way, the outcome would have been disastrous.

“I’m sorry. We can’t do this.”

“Why not?”

Mar didn’t seem to grasp the severity of the situation.

That situation is happening now. She didn’t expect lovers would be so attached to each other like this.

Mar tightened her grip on her waist while she wrapped her arms around his neck.

She let out a brief sigh as she fiddled with Mar’s hair. Her heart was breaking as she secretly made her decision and softly twirled her hands around his hair.

Should they just pretend to be clueless and continue to stay together like this?

Mar didn’t say anything in response to her innermost sentiments which had been carefully revealed.

“How can I lean into you, and make you regain your memory?”

“….”

“It would still be impossible even if I regained my memories back.”

Mar’s voice was quiet and frigid.

She took a step back, trying to escape from his arms.

It was her first time seeing the tough Mar, so she was taken aback, dropping her gaze and staring at the floor.
