Chapter 27

How did you find out about Dashiel?)

Earlier, I was frozen in surprise, but now she was the one frozen in her tracks. She stopped brushing my hair too. From the mirror in front of me, I could clearly see how she turned pale before swallowing hard and asked, "D-ashiel? Who's that?" She tried to make it sound true, but in fact, she's obviously lying.

My eyes narrowed as I faced her. Is she trying to fool me? Well, if she is, I'm not that crazy and deaf to be easily fooled.

"But you don't know him? Well, in fact, you even mentioned his name," I said, watching her reaction closely.

She probably realized that I'm scrutinizing her facial expression, so she quickly changed it. "Huh? Really? Did I say that?" she asked in a cheerful tone. Then, she resumed brushing my hair.

My eyes narrowed even more when I saw how quickly she changed her facial expression. "Are you trying to fool me, Aling Bebang?" I couldn't help but say what I've been holding back earlier.

She stopped brushing my hair again
