"Honey, what's going on? Why did that girl call you 'Ely'?" Reever asked as soon as he walked into the kitchen.
"Argghh!" Lisa started pacing back and forth with a lot of worries written on her face.
"Honey, can you answer please," Reever asked.
"This is troubleso. Very troubleso," Lisa said. "If my family find out I'm alive, they will co back for . No, I don't want to go back there. I left everything behind already."
"Are you… from a noble family?" Reever asked. "Did I marry a noble girl?"
"What? There's no ti to be thinking about that. You have bigger problems now," the girl said.
Reever took that as a 'yes'. "Oh lord, I married into a noble family," he said with a stunned expression. "Haha, Father, Mother! Look at how well your child is doing."
Lisa looked back with an annoyed expression.
"Lisa, tell . Which family are you from? Howard? Manners? Russels?" Reever asked. "What's your surna?"
"It's Skulls," Lisa said with an annoyed face.
Reever nodded his head when he got the answer, but when he thought about it, he stopped. "Wait, no that's my surna."
"And I married you. What else do you want to say?" Lisa asked.
"Your family na. The noble family's na," he asked.
"Did you not listen to ? I left my family. I no longer consider them as my family," Lisa said.
"But you said they would co back for you, right? Isn't that why you don't want to let them know?" he asked.
"Yes, and that's a big problem," Lisa said.
"Do you have bad blood with your family?" Reever asked in a serious voice.
"I… kind of. I have bad blood with 2 people, but my relationship wasn't that bad with the others," Lisa said. "But that was then. I don't know how many people would hate now and they will rejoice to see in pain."
"What sort of family is that?" Reever asked.
Just then, Ning walked in through the door. "I ca to inform that the girl is leaving the city today and says she is going to go report you to your family," Ning said.
"Dammit, I knew it," Lisa said.
"Honey, it doesn't matter. Anything that cos at us, we two can handle it together," Reever said.
"Don't you see, dear?" Lisa said. "The first thing they do after they find is separate us. They won't be able to tolerate being married to you."
"What? They can't do that. What will they do? Make us divorce each other?" Reever asked with a scoff in his voice.
"No," Lisa said. "They will kill you. They will kill you and hide all existence of our marriage. I am just a tool to make connections for them. I… oh god, we need help."
"Do you want to deal with the girl?" Ning asked. "If she forgets this ever happened, then you will be safe."
"What? Can that be done?" Lisa asked suspiciously.
"I know how," Ning said. "And don't worry, the girl won't have any problems afterward."
"If you can, then please do so," Lisa said. "In the anwhile, let's go find Uncle. He is the only one who would know what to do in this situation."
Ning nodded and left the place. He quickly made his way back to the hotel to find the girl.
'What room is she in?' he thought and tried to find a number. Just then, he saw her in the lobby, seemingly doing nothing there.
'That was easy,' he thought and walked up to her.
The butler saw Ning coming towards her and imdiately got in front of protecting her. However, before he could even do anything, the butler felt unable to move or even speak.
His eyes showed full worry as the girl hadn't even realized what was happening.
"Relax, I'm not going to hurt her," Ning said when he got close. He placed his hands on her head, and only then did she realize soone was there.
"What the—" before she could even finish sentence, she was dominated. Just to be safe, Ning dominated the butler too and let him free.
"Master!" they both called him.
"Listen up, forget that you ever t Lisa, or as you call her Ely. Do not reveal this information to anyone else," he ordered them.
"Yes master," they said.
"Good," Ning said and was about to turn around when the girl spoke.
"But master, I have already told people about it," she said.
"What?" Ning asked in surprise. He looked around to see if soone was there in the lobby and asked, "Who?"
"My father, master," she said.
"Your… father? Is he here too?" Ning asked.
"No, I ssaged him through the telephone in the hotel lobby," she said.
"You te— shit! There are telephones here?" Ning asked and turned around to find one in the hotel lobby.
'Dammit, I can't do anything about that,' he thought. There was no point in making the two do anything anymore, so he let them go, but kept the domination.
He turned around and walked away from the hotel lobby. He made his way to the tailor where Lisa and Reever should've gone to right now.
He saw them talking with the boss and walked up to them. "I'm sorry guys, but she already called back ho and told her father about you," Ning said.
Lisa saw the world leave her for a mont. "No, this can't be happening," she said.
"It seems you have no choice but to embrace it now. Your family will co sooner or later to find you. It's better if you go to them first," the boss said.
"But what about him? They will kill him, won't they? The girl asked.
"Do you have that little faith in your own family?" the boss asked, but then suddenly rembered sothing and said, "Sorry, I forgot."
"Anyway, he is why you should go back yourself. Make a public return with this young man so that they have no way of hiding his existence after you return," the boss said.
Lisa thought about it for a mont and asked," Is that really the only way?"
Reever had nothing to say in what she was thinking as he had no understanding of the gravity of the situation.
"I'm afraid so, my child," the boss said with a heavy sigh.
