Chapter 92

Zelda met Damian's intense gaze with confusion, wondering if there was some hidden animosity between the Munoz and Stanton families. Regardless, she simply explained, "We studied under the same mentor." Damian's brow furrowed slightly at this revelation. He knew Simon had always been eccentric, dedicating himself to medicine from a young age and studying abroad after high school. As he recalled Zelda's own medical skills, Damian's suspicions began to fade—perhaps it was just a coincidence. His expression softened slightly as he nodded. "You shouldn't have too much contact with Simon. He's not a good person." Zelda said nothing, realizing there must be some bad blood between Simon and Damian. Damian stepped closer, his tall figure looming over her as he warned her, "Simon may seem harmless, but he's deeply calculating. You won't gain anything good from associating with him, so keep your distance." Torn between their conflicting warnings, Zelda bit her lip, unsure of whom to trust.
