Chapter 101: Trouble In Paradise

Iris's expectant eyes watched him, her gaze unwavering. Damon froze for a moment, caught off guard by the intensity of her expression. He turned to Lilith, only to find a sly smile playing on her lips. For a brief moment, he felt his breath hitch and his heart pound, but right on cue, the Remorseless skill activated, forcing him to calm himself.

Damon frowned, carefully placing his teacup down with a faint click.

"I'm sorry, Lilith, but I think there's been some misunderstanding."

Lilith raised an eyebrow, her smirk widening slightly. "A misunderstanding?"

Damon nodded slowly, maintaining his composure.

"Yes. You seem to believe I'm some sort of expert on the matter. But as much as I'd love to bask in the glow of your faith in me, I'm afraid I have no idea what you're talking about."

Iris's blue eyes darted toward him, her voice trembling slightly. "You… really don't know anything?"

Damon turned his gaze to her, his tone softening.
