Chapter 1102: Paula and Andrea’s proxy
"Revealing it before her permission won’t be, either. My information is solely for the cause of my misery. What she’s going to do with it, I don’t care. But I don’t trust any of you."
The corner of Wolf’s lips curved down, displeased at Joker’s remarks.
"You’re doubting me?" asked Wolf in disbelief. "You think I will betray her?"
"I said in general." Joker hummed, leaning back comfortably. "You work for her, and I work for her. We’re not friends. I lost a part of me that no one can ever give back. I’m not losing more than I already have just because I held on to the possibility none of you will betray her."
Slowly, Joker’s tone lowered, but it sounded more assertive. "Learnt that the hard way."
"You learned that lesson because of your loyalty," Wolf argued. "You chose to stay and save her."
"And by doing so, I disobeyed her orders. I went against her words." Joker cast him a look. "If Hera and Heaven didn’t switch bodies, she would’ve been dead, anyway. And so am I. I don’t want her to keep me just because of her fragile and seasonal conscience. She almost died, thinking she killed me."
"You look at her as if she’s that... considerate. She’s not like that."
"Maybe she isn’t, but what I do know is that the first thing she did the moment she woke up in her original body was to look for me," Joker stressed. "If that is not her conscience and worry, I don’t know what to call this."
