Chapter400-The Confrontation Between Venus and Leslie
The crowd hoped Venus would follow her heart.
Many were more familiar with Caesar, the Soul Reaper, whose abilities and combat prowess were well-known. They believed he and Venus would make a better match, and many silently rooted for them to end up together.
But before they could finish speaking, Venus's reddened eyes suddenly sharpened with determination.
"I appreciate everyone's concern," she said firmly, "but I, Venus, am willing to marry Owen!"
The atmosphere froze.
Everyone stared at Venus in shock. No one expected her to decide so quickly, let alone choose to marry Owen!
Though they all knew Venus had a deep bond with her father, she wasn't a submissive daughter. She had often argued and defied the God of Light's wishes in the past. She was not one to blindly follow orders.
Yet now, she had made this decision!
The faint smile on Caesar's face vanished entirely.
