650 Mars Feels Sympathy For Maxim

"And then... what happened?" Mars finally decided to get to the bottom of everything and stopped trying to find who to blame. As long as his wife was now safe, he would feel relieved and just focus on building their life together.

"Well... I didn't know about the protection spell until Emmelyn and I went to Myreen. There, we met my fiancee's family and found out the truth. They were horrified by what happened and I couldn't really blame them," Maxim said.

"The Leoraleis are not at fault. The person responsible for this is already dead and she might not be in her right mind when she did it," he smiled bitterly. "I guess, I am just unlucky."

"So.. how could Emmelyn be free? Or... is she not really free? Were you lying to her about it?" Mars asked Maxim again.

"No, I guarantee that she is free. I didn't tell her that I decided to marry my fiancee to fulfill her mother's wish because I know Emmelyn will stop me," Maxim replied.
