You Are Lying!

After the funeral, Johny brought Ceres back to Imperial City.

Ceres did not say a word along the way.

After returning home, Johny settled Ceres down and gently tucked her in. "Ceres, have a good sleep. Even though your father has passed away, you still have to live well, right?"

Ceres remained silent.

"Don't forget that you still have me. Let's live well in the future. Go to sleep." Johny kissed Ceres's forehead.

The bedroom was quiet at night.

Ceres opened her eyes. Her eyes were cold enough to send chills down Johny's spine. She took out a dagger from under her pillow.

Johny slept next to her. She got out of bed with the dagger and walked to Johny's side.

Her emotions were complicated.

On the one hand, she wanted to seek revenge for the death of her beloved father. On the other hand, she did not want to kill Johny, the man she loved deeply.
