"Look at her. She thinks she's one of them."
"She's so shameless, walking between the Crown Prince and Sister Eve. Can't she see that she's the third wheel?"
"Of course, she can't see. After all, that monster is blind."
"Shhh, keep your voices down. I heard that the Dirac family took pity on her and took her back in. You can get in trouble if she hears you."
"Well, what do you expect from a monster like her? Only that monstrous Dirac family can handle her. Even the temple gave up on her in the end."
People were unnecessarily cruel when they wanted to be. Elysia heard each and every word that was being spoken about her but she did not react.
These people already thought of her as a monster so any action she took would paint her more black in their eyes.
It was better for Elysia to pretend that she could not hear those words and discreetly try to edge her way out. She already felt uncomfortable standing between the fated pair.
