Chapter 220
As Namerias watched her with suspicion in her eyes, Lucy let out a small cough.
Because if she stayed still like this, it felt like her true feelings would be exposed.
“I’m really fine. More importantly, were you on your way to the command post?”
As Lucy subtly withdrew her hand and spoke, Daniel nodded.
“Yes. I need to prepare for the upcoming battle, and there are reports I need to receive. Where are you headed, Lieutenant?”
“Ah. As I mentioned yesterday, I’m on my way to speak with the city’s religious leaders for the civil affairs operation.”
“To get a read on social sentiment and request cooperation, huh. Quelling internal unrest is important too. Good work. Call for support if you need it.”
Daniel lightly tapped Lucy on the shoulder before walking off.
As she watched Daniel’s back, Lucy felt Namerias’s gaze on her.
Wondering why, she turned around—and saw Namerias sigh with a frustrated expression.
“Young Lady. Be honest with me—just me. You like Brigadier General Daniel Steiner, don’t you?”
Startled, Lucy glanced toward Daniel.
