“Yernia, what’s your ideal type of guy?  I’ll try to suit myself to your taste.”

Yernia thought for a moment.

Of course, she had an ideal type.

Yernia began to list her ideal type’s traits and characteristics as she looked at Cassian standing a little further from her.

“I prefer my ideal type to possess any hair color as long as it’s not black. I also want them to have curly hair. I prefer a gentle look rather than a scary face. I want him to wear glasses and being friendly is a plus.”

Yernia’s ideal type was the exact opposite of Cassian and everyone would immediately notice that once she started talking about it.

Still, she had no idea why her heart would flutter upon seeing Cassian.

When she was a kid, she didn’t know she would like Cassian this much.

However, it was different now since she wasn’t so young that she didn’t know how this worked.

She grew up treating him like a brother and a childhood friend after all the years she spent with hi.

“I think your ideal type is me except for the glasses.”

As Yernia watched Jennan carefully, his curly brown hair reminded her of a poodle.

As he also said, his handsome face resembled Yernia’s ideal type.

“Come to think of it. You’re right! I had no idea.” Yernia admitted readily.

She had only been focusing on his stage performance all this time, so she hadn’t noted his appearance.

“Do you want to go out with me?”

“Huh?”

“You told me you don’t want to play with fire, didn’t you? I’ve never met anyone like that before. You’re the only person who told me that you liked me because of my singing and not just my beautiful face.”

“That’s weird. Some of your audiences must be deaf.”

How had Jennan lived?

His opera singing was good.

She wasn’t talking empty because he was that talented.

He had the power to immerse himself on the stage so Yernia didn’t understand what he was talking about at first.

She couldn’t see anything else once she started watching his stage.

“I don’t see anything else at all.”

“You mean it’s empty, right?”

“No, I’m telling you that time flies when I listen to your songs and focus on your stage. I didn’t think of anything else even after it was over. You’re so good that I want to see you again.”

“…….”

“I don’t understand why others haven’t discovered your true worth.”

Yernia liked Jennan on stage but she couldn’t say the same when he was offstage once she got to know him well.

Nevertheless, he didn’t seem like he was a bad guy.

If Jennan was truly evil, he wouldn’t have let Yernia go when she was alone with him the other day in his cabin.

Today, she had learned about Jennan’s living conditions which Cassian warned her about, but it didn’t matter to her.

Cassian was a man of reason but he didn’t like Jennan in the first place.

Her husband also wanted to keep their reputation spotless so he allowed Yernia to enjoy Jennan’s stage as long as she wouldn’t meet her alone in front of other people.

Yernia’s admiration of his voice and performance was sincere but that didn’t mean she cared about what he did in his private life.

“I like your voice so much that I want you to keep singing.”

“…….”

Jennan went silent as he touched his earlobes in what-seemed-to-be chagrin.

“Would you hate me if I wasn’t an opera singer?”

“I haven’t thought about it, but why not?”

“I’ll see you then.”

Was he saying they would meet again once he quit being an opera singer?

Yernia could never understand what was on Jennan’s mind.

She couldn’t understand Vihani, either.

Even if her marriage was arranged, she and Cassian have the responsibility to build a family of their own.

Isn’t dating while being married considered illegal?

“I’m married.”

“I know. However, I’m trashy enough to not care whether you’re married or not.”

“…….”

“Your marriage was arranged, anyway.”

Yernia shook her head.

“Yes. Even if it was an arranged marriage, I still don’t want to do it.”

“Is it because of conscience?”

“No. I don’t want to hurt Cassian. And most of all—-”

Afraid that he might hear their conversation, Yernia sighed as she looked at Cassian approaching from afar.

“I don’t think I’m ready to like someone else.”

She didn’t want to think about anything else.

She didn’t even want to know why she couldn’t.

“Do you want me to tell you something?” Jennan whispered to Yernia. “I didn’t want to tell you, but I change my mind a while ago.”

Yernia saw the corner of Cassian’s mouth twitch when he was near.

The moment he gave Jennan a cold stare, he uttered meaningful words toward Yernia.

“It’s a reward for saying such nice things to me.” Jennan chuckled as he slowly moved away from Yernia after mentioning the word ‘reward’. Then he added with a murmur, “Please continue to like my songs. I think that will cheer me up.”

Yernia turned her gaze at Cassian.

Then, she looked at Jennan and nodded.

“Of course. I will support you anytime and anywhere.”
