Chapter 219: The Woman She Turned Into
When Talia returned to the lounge, she saw Archibald and Marcella sitting together, with Archibald whispering something in her ears and Marcella’s blushed, round face looked like an apple.
Noticing Talia walking towards them, Marcella stood up and walked towards her.
"He is such a... He’s not a very nice person like you, Princess," she said and she was gasping as if she had run a mile. "He’s acting with you. In fact he has said something terrible about you in the past. Vivi told me about it. He is not a polite person..."
Talia could only imagine what he might have said to her to make her blushed and flustered like this.
Some teasing words probably? Guess all men are same with their women. But why is she complaining to me?
Talia couldn’t understand that, Marcella trying to turn her inability to retaliate to his lewd statements, turned it into a complaint against him to Talia, whom she respected. She knew Talia is of higher status than Archibald and as if a child complaints to her parent, she complained to Talia about the mean guy who bullies her. Since she couldn’t retaliate, she wanted Talia’s help.
As far as Marcella is considered, it was pretty simple. She trusted Talia too much. For her who doesn’t meet with people often, Talia felt very well acquainted since her sister talked about her enough. Talia is a very nice lady who helped her sister and if her sister liked her that much, she could be entrusted with anything. For her who never stressed about reading the facial expressions of the other party, she didn’t notice the bewilderment in Talia’s face.
Talia didn’t want to analyse everything since she didn’t care about these two that much, and she really didn’t want to know what this guy said about her in the past. It truly doesn’t matter since Arthur actually punched him for it. It’s even, right?
"Well... Who doesn’t have different personas? We all act different when we are comfortable and when we are not." Talia shrugged.
