"!!!" Anna's body was trembling. Her tone was shaking. "You… You mean your family gave me money. And you said earlier that my father and your father are best friends? Also, the royal family and the different sides…"

Anna gasped in horror. She couldn't help but remember what happened in her past life. She muttered inwardly, 'The Third Prince betrayed Noel and stabbed him from the back. Is the Third Prince the culprit? No, wait. My teacher also did the same and her status was also important.

'My teacher was actually the leader of the royal magician. She was one of the closest retainers of the king, Basically, she was his left hand.

'Then, does it mean both of them betrayed us? If that's the case, both of them have some involvement with the Supreme Devil Organization?

'Wait a minute… Noel was supposed to know about this information and suspected the third prince. Noel was smart back in the day and he wouldn't fall for this kind of trick easily.

'Wait, wait, wait…' Anna got the shock of her life. 'Don't tell me, the Third Prince and Noel actually played a trick on my previous teacher? If that's the case, Noel must be still alive in my past life and I was the only one who died. Is that why I'm the only one who gets reincarnated even though we're both together at that time?

'But I can't really give any explanation about the reincarnation itself. And the Third Prince might also show his true nature and Noel just tricked him into thinking he had died.

'There are too many IFs in this situation. But it's clear that both the third prince and the king are the suspects… Though, there is also a possibility that Noel had trusted the third prince so much that he didn't think about betrayal.

'If that's the case, should I tell Noel about what happened in our past lives? But if I told him not to trust the Third Prince, he would become suspicious of me as well like how in the world I got that information. There wasn't any concrete proof that the Third Prince was actually the culprit either, since it might be just a fake show. If I told him about this, Noel would have a bias in his judgment, making him not believing the Third Prince even though he turned out to be a good person.'







Anna couldn't make a decision whether to tell him or not. There were too many cons if she told him everything.

The current Noel had suspected both of them right now and if he investigated them, he would be able to judge with neutral eyes. If she told him about this, he might judge them poorly.

After some thoughts, Anna decided not to tell him about the betrayal. Instead, she focused on her own family.

She asked, "What's happening with my own family? I can't understand."

Noel shook his head helplessly. "I told you earlier. Your father is an ally, unlike you who wanted my family to die."

"…" Anna fell silent. She remembered when her father had given the sentence to Noel's parents. He spared Noel and the execution was just a farce to hide his parents. In other words, her father had played a part in the execution as an ally, not an enemy.

That was also why that there were some money for her father, which might be used for something else.

"Still, there is one thing that confuses me the most. Why did everyone make me the real culprit? If my father was your family's ally, shouldn't my father hide the fact I said all those words to make sure that there was no friction between us?"

Noel couldn't answer that question. He also had that kind of suspicion. If he was the father, he would hide what his daughter said in this situation. Instead, he would ask her to learn more from the other party so that there was no hatred between them.

Yet, the reality was different. This friction looked like it was purposely made for something.





"I don't know. The only ones who know about the reasons are probably your father and my parents." Noel shook his head helplessly.

"If that's the case, I can ask my father! No one told us how we should spend our time as long as we can complete the requirement for graduation. If that's the case, I can go back to my family to ask my father." Anna suggested since he felt fired up to resolve their misunderstanding, hoping that the relationship between them became better.

Noel, on the other hand, didn't think this plan would work. "No. That's something you shouldn't do."

"Why? Do you hate me that much? I'm sorry… I apologize for what I've done. Is there truly no way for you to forgive me?" Anna gritted her teeth, becoming frustrated.

However, Noel remained calm and explained, "That's not what I mean. After observing you for almost a year, I saw two contrasts of your action. It felt like you were bullying me for a certain reason and when we were on a mission which could be said we're alone, you would be nice to me.

"So, I figure out that you have your reason, which might be related to your parents. In fact, I did have a thought that you actually suggested my family's extermination and your behaviors were just a part of the plan. In other words, you were involved in that plan, meaning that every bad thing you did and said to me were just a facade."

p "Ah!" Anna gasped, realizing her mistake.

Noel's expression became extremely cold as he stared at Anna. "At first, I wanted to apologize for misunderstanding you the whole time since you were just trying to save me and I should feel indebted to it.

"But looking from your reaction, I could see that you truly wanted to exterminate my family, including me. And it wasn't a part of the plan. It also gave another contrast to your behavior." Noel glared at her. "Anna Stargaze. What do you really want from me? You must want to toy with me."

Anna was covered in cold sweat as Noel misunderstood everything again. She thought, 'I shouldn't have said anything…'
