    Two days had ec6a0956e9 passed since I 37ccfcbbc7 woke up in c548f38670 Evgenia’s body.366816d4f309c7ee

    I felt a 3f112b85bc faint headache and f93b813187 placed my hand 84ec677bb6 on my forehead, 13539f79ce where I noticed be5c9c0c38 a bandage wrapped f5e9dba745 around it.ce706844be0bbc5c

    Suddenly, memories of two 80fb9f8021 days ago resurfaced—first, of 7e592c2da0 being startled by the eb84431743 vintage room, and second, 111f23ef00 by the sight of 3c6a38a39f a Western woman in f38a2e2ca0 a maid’s uniform.89cb646fe62c2b27

    At that moment, I was 1701d41447 shocked to hear the name 8450507ebb naturally come from my lips.5841b49187452977

    The realization struck 7ca9552023 me immediately: Anne b54774212b was the name 077ae775fe of the maid b1666b205d loyal to Evgenia, 67c55e5ebb the villainess in c2382b6f1a The Saint’s Dangerous 7372a9dc83 Choice.cc2505788959d022

    A hazy memory surfaced: b57b750aa2 instead of leaving a 423f872ad2 lengthy hate comment, I 21f2613aec had openly asked the 8e22dad244 author to commission the 9a931d0c88 manuscript.

    The novel I was now f880f3754e a part of, The Saint’s 4763076d97 Dangerous Choice, was a typical 6c826ea904 reverse harem romance where the 059148faa8 female lead, Melissa, captivated the e186c03094 love of the crown prince, 23eb099f4e the high priest, and the a8419babee guild master of assassins.92167a86da5cf66e
