As soon as David had left, Ireya's smile disappeared from her face, and she said angrily, "Did you see that guy's face just now? How can he be so shameless, claiming that using me as bait was for my protection!"
"If we'd really gone to meet Hels' people, by now we might have been wiped out by him!"
Li Yu said, "This is how these nobles are, you must be extremely careful when dealing with them. In fact, you did the right thing by not acting rashly before I arrived."
Hearing this, Ireya fell into deep thought, then spoke after a moment.
"Are you actually praising me for being reliable, or are you saying I'm stupider than the other nobles... And, it's not that I didn't act rashly, it's that I didn't even notice Hels was secretly contacting me without you saying so.
"That aside, do you really think Hels is innocent? But didn't he just have an argument with my father before my father passed away?"
