Liam tensed up when he heard that voice. He quickened his pace and rushed through the corridor, toward the cell where Renee and Leia were locked up.
Suddenly, he became flabbergasted and his face stiffened. For a long time, he couldn't regain his wits.
"Hey... What are you guys doing?"
On a table lay barbecue, jerky, beer, and fruit platters. Meanwhile, both Renee and Leia were playing cards.
Leia ran after Renee, then pressed her on the chair and said seriously, "Hey, gorgeous. You can't run away! You got the card for kissing me, so you have to let me kiss you. If not, you're trying to disobey the rules of the game!"
"Help! Help me..!" Renee kept resisting, amused and befuddled. 'Get away from me! I'm a desperate woman who likes men! I can't kiss you! If I kiss you, I'm going to have nightmares Oh, just kill me! Is there anyone who can save me?"
Liam wasn't the only one standing at the door. Amber was also with him since she was following him. Watching Renee and Leia's antics, she felt awkward and confused.
"Uh, it looks like we were scared for nothing." Then, she asked carefully, "They look so close. Are they...a couple?"
It seemed possible. Leia was always with Renee, taking care of the latter attentively. Also, they slept in the same bed and were very intimate with each other.
At first, Amber was jealous of their friendship-but now, it seemed they were more than best friends. If that was the case, she pitied Liam. No wonder he failed to win Renee over even though he was so outstanding!
It seemed that... the situation was different. Renee didn't even like men.
"Hey, Liam. Don't be sad. Although Ms. Everheart likes women, it doesn't mean you don't have a chance. I heard there are no specific preferences in this world. You just happened to like someone, regardless of gender. If you work hard, maybe you can move Ms. Everheart's heart." Amber, pitying Liam, tried her best to comfort him. "I feel that sincerity is the key. You can still win her over."Còntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org
"Hey, Gem. How could you.." Liam turned and looked at Amber, bewildered. She always ruined his impression of her. What do you mean? How could you say such a thing?"
He had always assumed Amber to be a young, innocent woman. She might not even understand the romance between men and women, let alone the profound words she had just said.
Yet right now, she showed her understanding of the people's preferences and made such an opinion. Liam saw her in a new light.
"I learned it from reading, Amber continued seriously. "It's very boring to stay in the fort all day. My greatest pleasure is reading novels. Well, to be honest, I love reading about the romances between men and men as well as romances between women and women. I read
one about women. The heroine has a best friend who grew up with her. They thought they loved men, but in fact-
"Okay, stop!" Liam hurriedly interrupted Amber and said awkwardly. "That's not the point."
"I know that's not the point, but that novel is interesting. The heroine's character resembles Ms. Everheart's. Plus, there's also a male character whose character resembles yours and is in an ambiguous relationship with the heroine. He keeps ruining the relationship between the heroine and her best friend," Amber went on.
