[Full] The Villainess Just Wants to Live Quietly! (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 89

I silently glanced at Zen, who was following the carriage, because I could clearly sense his overwhelming anger without him saying a word.

We were now on our way back after stopping by the Imperial Guard’s interrogation room to gather various pieces of information from Andro.
