Pressed to the Edge

Princess Lana looked at her youngest sister with contempt. How could that young girl do this to her?

"No she was not invited by the hero Elder Gu," Princess Song replied with determination. "It was the Princess herself who asked if she can join me in the hero's home,"

"This is all true, I wasn't invited," The Highest Princess admitted to save her reputation. She thought that since the truth was splattered in front of their faces, she should clarify things then. "I was indeed the one who asked if I can stay in the hero's house,"

Princess Song almost rolled an eye at her but chose not to. If she wasn't pressed to the edge she would surely not speak and would allow the rumors to go and prejudiced the hero. Does she think she can get what she wants by pressuring the hero through rumors? Surely she does not know him yet.
