Sophie ignored Arius. She was all too familiar with such compliments. I know others sometimes can’t understand me at all. Things seem to come easily to me, but not everyone understands my world. However, it seems that Tristan comprehends how I feel. If there’s one person like that in the world, that’s enough for me.

“What’s with that look of tenderness on your face? Who are you thinking of?” Arius asked, feeling annoyed when he saw her expression. I’m well aware that she wants to marry Tristan.

Arius promptly shook his head. “Love is a complicated thing. I don’t have so much time and energy to spend with another woman.”
