"Adam, I'm the Base Commander's daughter, so naturally I have to act in the base's best interests. You can understand me, right? You love me the most, and I really have no choice here."
Listening to Rina's justifications—intermingled with that suffocating, rich fragrance in the air—Adam felt a surge of pure disgust.
A nauseating revulsion.
"Is that so?" Adam said coldly.
"Yes, exactly! That's just how it is. Adam, you have to understand me, okay? I will treat you well."
Rina wrapped her arms around him once more. "Right now, danger is everywhere outside the base. Portals are spawning all over, and the monsters will only keep multiplying. The base needs powerful combat forces, and they must remain here. Adam, I know you're someone who sees the bigger picture—you'll definitely understand me."
Inside the wardrobe, Suzy had listened to their entire exchange from start to finish and almost wanted to applaud.
