Chapter 161.5
“Did you notice anything? Rena.”
“…are you on a break? Ron.”
Elena responds to Ron, who had come down from the rooftop where he was repairing the hot air balloon, and Elena responded with a that seemed to draw a line.
Both Elena and Ron were aware that their names were aliases for each other; Ron was probably a nobleman from some country, and he probably realized that Elena was a nobleman, as well.
Elena had been involved with them for some time and trusted their personalities. However, as a noble, she could not afford to reveal her name to them and even if she did trust them.
(It’s mutual, but…)
Aria did not trust them with all her heart, but she did trust Elena enough to trust her (with some calculation) with the children, seeing how much they loved her.
Elena would not have wanted to be with them if it were not for those young children and Chaco who took care of them.
Of course, Elena had assumed that Ron and Camille would be somewhat wary of them as well….
“Oh…what, are you having trouble? Life in the desert is hard, isn’t it?”
“Well. I’m fine…but?”
Recently, Elena felt that Ron’s attitude had softened, especially since she had seen him taking care of the children.
