337,

There is no life and death decision.

There is no split between enemy and me.

There is no distinction between good and evil.

It's just a simple conversation.

But Cyclone can be sure, every word now will determine Eileen's future.

Cyclone slowly organizes the words in his mind, carefully choosing suitable ones.

"Eileen?"

First, he softly calls her name to see if she is willing to continue listening to him.

At the same time, he measures if his voice truly reaches her ears.

"Um..."

She responds, and Cyclone adjusts the volume for his next words.

"Eileen, your worth is not limited to just cooking."

"..."

There is no response this time, but Cyclone can be certain that Eileen heard and chose not to answer.

Using a simple approach won't penetrate Eileen's inner thoughts. Without being able to lie, Cyclone prepares to say the next sentence.

"But dear, besides knowing that Eileen is cute, has a great figure, and cooks well, I really don't know other aspects of Eileen's beauty."

Cyclone shakes his head, starting the first wave of attack with a rather direct statement.

Upon hearing this, Eileen immediately faces Cyclone.

Although she doesn't say anything and lowers her head in the next second, Cyclone can confirm that his previous words were definitely impactful.

But Cyclone didn't say anything wrong; he truly doesn't know.

Instead of using nonsense to deceive his wife, Cyclone prefers to state the truth directly.

Before him is not just anyone, but his wife.

If his wife could use lies like others, her value in Cyclone's heart would become worthless.

"Eileen, what I said is not just about you, but about myself as well."

Cyclone doesn't look at Eileen anymore; instead, he gazes at the sky, uncertain of Eileen's reaction at this moment.

"We've been together for half a year, right?"

Although uncertain, Cyclone still manages to smile.

"You understand too, right? When there's nothing important, who would suddenly ask about someone's past?"

Cyclone looks back at Eileen, realizing that she is already looking at him.

But as soon as she sees that Cyclone has turned to her, she turns to the other side.

Cyclone smiles gently and continues speaking.

"When we were between the thrones, your sister Marder mentioned that I don't know how your parents died."

Cyclone reaches out and lifts Eileen's chin, making her look directly at him.

Indeed, Eileen is Eileen, an obedient and lovely girl.

As Eileen and Cyclone's eyes reflect each other, Cyclone speaks.

"I admit, I'm truly ignorant."

Just like with Little Dragon's situation.

"I don't understand you."

For Yuna, Cyclone had once delved into her past.

"For you, this time, I want to know more about your past."

From past experiences, Cyclone learned how to understand others.

It's not just about superficial analysis, but about delving deep into someone's past and their thoughts.

"I don't like it. I don't like you hiding things from me. It's not just me who feels uncomfortable, I'm sure you feel the same, right?"

Seeing that Eileen was no longer avoiding his gaze, Cyclone let go of her hand.

"Let's find your worth together."

Cyclone smiled.

"Eileen, take this opportunity to let me know more about you, to let me understand the real you!"

"You're a bad person..."

Eileen finally spoke up.

"You're saying that now..."

Although the answer wasn't directly positive, Cyclone looked at Eileen's mouth.

It went from being downturned to slightly upturned, indicating that her mood had probably improved.

"You're only realizing this now?"

Once again, Cyclone reached out to touch Eileen's head.

"The man who loves you, he's a bad person~"
