Nyissa parted her lips as she said, "You are right, Sage Han. I don't know Viktor really well."
Sage Han smugly smiled, seeing that she was right back on track, and even shot a provoking glance at Viktor.
However, Nyissa wasn't done and continued, "But whatever I know about him is enough for me to know that he would never let go of my hand just like now even if my clan or I get in trouble without him needing to say it. And it's not like the man my mother's clan had chosen is someone I know very well enough to put my faith and trust in him, is he?"
Nyissa didn't even mention the Azure Sea Clan as her own but as her mother's since she never felt that she was a part of that clan. At least not after how she was treated by them, especially her own mother.
Sage Han's previous smiling expression froze up as he never expected such a U-turn from her. Was she really not worried about her clan facing repercussions or have any desire to seek her mother's approval?
