Reborn as a Weak Earthling, I Became the Most Overpowered Mage Alive Chapter 48: Ch 48: Jenna Lorance - Part 3

"W-What did you say...? Your boyfriend? Since when...? Mark, did you cheat on ?"

Jenna asked, imdiately changing her tone to make herself out to be the victim in all of this. Since everyone had started to pay attention to her, she wanted to use this opportunity to spread the agenda that she had been cheated by Mark.

There was no way she wanted to let the words get out that she was the problem behind their relationship.

"Let make sothing clear to you, Jenna. That marriage or whatever...I never wanted it. You and your mother tried to force into it. And also, didn’t you steal a lot from before the marriage as well? I have a list of what was stolen. As for cheating...we have to be involved to cheat. I don’t think we were ever involved with each other."

Jenna’s expression paled as soon as Andrew spoke. She wanted to stop him, but he continued.

"Besides, Lilianna is so much better compared to you. So you should stop using my na to get people on your side or you will regret it a lot in the future."

Andrew’s warning was clear- he was not going to play along with Jenna’s words or actions. The more he spoke, the more Jenna looked ready to combust.

"I...that is...how can you say all that to ? I helped you out so much in the past..."

Jenna tried to make excuses but she could tell that it was of no use.

Soti between the ti Andrew ran away from that marriage ceremony to right now, he had changed more than she could count on. In fact, it seed as if he was a different person altogether.

"Ugh, are we done with this drama? Then, can we get going now? I want to get back ho and relax in my bed."

Clara complained as she chose the perfect opportunity to interfere. Andrew nodded and shook off Jenna from his arm. He kept Lilianna close to him before they went off.

Once they were gone, the players Jenna had scamd imdiately turned toward her.

"What the hell was that, Jenna? I thought you told us that you were close to Mark Dawnson. But he looks like he wants nothing to do with you. Did you lie to us?"

A player who had given Jenna a lot of his stuff asked in agitation. He had tried to take extra care of her in order to get close to her so that he could make a deal with Mark.

But now that the truth had co out, he no longer believed he had done the right thing.

"Lie? I did not lie to you. We were close...I an, we are still close. Mark is just playing a little hard to get at the mont because he is No. 1. That is how it has always been. Even now, he ca to help out. Even if he says he does not want anything to do with , he still worries about ."

She quickly explained and a few players around her made a small noise. They seed to believe her which made her sigh in relief.

But most of the people around her did not seem to think the sa.

"I see...I hope you are right. Otherwise, your position will beco a lot trickier. Aren’t there a lot of people who helped you out because you told them you were soone special to Mark Dawnson? Once the news of what happened here spreads, I pray that you remain safe."

Jenna smiled at those words.

"I am sure I will be fine. I am much more powerful than you think."

She assured as she kept presenting a ’I’m-not-worried’ front on the outside. But on the inside, she was panicking badly. She knew she had fucked up but she still had a chance to make things right.

After all, she had the class ’trickster’. If she was not soone who could fool everyone else, then who could?

"A trickster? This is another new class I have never seen. But from the skills, it seems like it is based on manipulation. Not an attacking class, but a skill-based buffing class?"

Andrew did feel tempted to get a second buffer for his party. But he did not want to get soone who could beco a liability to him in the future.

For now, Lilianna will have to pull her own weight.

And speaking of Lilianna, she finally noticed that she was still clutching Andrew’s arm and quickly let it go with a flush. Her eyes darted toward him before they looked around and sohow ended up back at him once more.

"I...I am sorry. I acted on my own without asking you. I apologize for putting you in a difficult situation."

Lilianna turned red as she apologised. She looked behind Andrew, only to see Clara’s teasing smile which made her feel even more embarrassed.

Her eyes turned to look back at Andrew, wondering if he would be disappointed in her and ask her to leave or sothing...

"It’s fine. I don’t mind what you did. In fact, I think you helped out more than you caused problems. I am thankful for your help."

Lilianna felt relief slam into her at those words.

"I...I see. Then, I will continue to help you out in such a way in the future as well if the need cos...anyway, should we head to the next section? Now that we have the map, it should be easy for us to exit this maze."

Lilianna quickly changed the topic once it felt like she was getting caught up in her own words.

The other three looked at the map before they quickly nodded.

"Yeah, we should get going now. There is no point in staying here any longer anyway."
