Fane did not expect Selena would say such a thing at that timing.
Looking at their daughter who was already fast asleep on the bed, Fane nodded, "Of course, I would love to kiss you!"
Selena blushed as she walked toward Fane. Then, she said, "I'll let you kiss me if you tell me the truth!"
"Are you sure? You'll let me kiss you if I tell you the truth?"
Fane frowned. He felt that things were much more complicated than it looked.
"Of course! I never go back on my words!"
Selena swore.
"Alright, I'll tell you the truth!"
Fane raised his hand and swore.
"Then tell me honestly, is that girl in the mask really the Goddess of War?"
Selena asked.
Fane nodded his head, "Of course. She is Lana, the only Goddess of War. It's real!"
"Is she really your friend? Don't lie to me!"
Selena stared at Fane as though she wanted to see
through everything.
Fane smiled bitterly and said, "Alright, I was actually lying previously. She's actually not my friend!"
Selena's face darkened as she heard his words. She was not his friend and she was rich; did Fane really become a toyboy to earn forty million bucks?
"I knew it. You're a liar!"
Selena's eyes turned red as she felt hurt.
"I'm sorry, I just wanted to live in peace. She's not my friend, she's actually my apprentice!"
"Oh my, why did I believe that you can bring happiness to our family? You only know how to brag!"
Selena looked at Fane, turned around, and was prepared to go to bed.
"Wait!"
Fane pulled her back and cornered her against the wall with one hand above her head. He stepped forward and stood closer to her body.
"You, what are you trying to do?"
Flustered, Selena's heart raced uncontrollably. Her beautiful eyes were wide open.
"You said that I can kiss you if I tell you the truth earlier. You can’t just go back on your words, can you?"
Fane smirked and stared at the person in front of him.
"But...you didn't tell me the truth. You're still lying to m e..."
Selena lifted her head angrily.
