Crossing the Line

Since Abelia first came to the palace, Dion had been spending more time with her. She would always come to the palace and ask him to go out with her.

This sometimes made Jillian lonely because usually Dion, who was always sitting by the window reading a book, was now never seen because he was spending time with Abelia.

In contrast to her, who was spending time with Aileen, causing rumors to spread in the palace that she was having an affair. However, when Dion and Abelia were together, there were no rumors whatsoever. She thought perhaps this was because they had been known as friends since childhood.

So the servants in the palace didn't think what they were doing was anything out of the ordinary.

Because of that, Jillian spent more time together with Azael in his tower even though she wasn't supposed to come during the day or anyone would see her go in there.
