"Ah...! So you wanna get to know me better? I guess that's what we intended to do with the whole rule thing." She then smirked and raised her left hand towards Marionette's left cheek.
"Real adorable, though, Marionette." she rubbed her cheek.
Marionette stared at her with a frozen expression before clutching the hand placed on her cheek and leaning into it.
Lillian was surprised by this. Only for a moment, though. She just expected Marionette to turn her face away like usual... except...
"I'm only like this... for you..."
Lillian was left stunned at Marionette's words—speechless, even. This was definitely not what she was expecting—especially not a sudden confession like that.
