Hearing that, Claire's body trembled a bit. Lathel felt that what he said was harsh. If he were in the modern world, he would have been slapped by this girl.
However, he can only tell the truth. Firstly, he was worried that Claire was following Malina's orders and trying to get close to him to cause trouble.
Secondly, if these were Claire's true feelings, Lathel thought that perhaps she had encountered too many bad things in this world.
So, like he said, when he treated Claire well, she mistook this gentleness for love, which was even more troublesome.
By the time she realises this world has much better things, she will regret today's decision.
That's why he can only say frankly what he thinks.
Lathel saw Claire bow her head, she clutched her lovely dress while trembling, then sighed.
