Eri couldn't comprehend what Calion just pronounced.
Retrieve her last name?
Dug out of the family register?
That meant…
"No, don't talk nonsense. Who wants to dig me out of the family register? No matter how much you hate me, this is crossing the line. If father comes to know—"
"Did I not told you? I'm telling in stead of the head of the household."
"What? So… does that mean it's father's will to erase me off the family register..?"
Her voice trembled uncontrollably. To that, Calion was delighted beyond measure. It was not common to see his cheeky half-sister so flustered.
'Ah, she's not even my sister anymore.'
She was just a stranger, no strings attached.
He smiled and responded to her words.
"You are right. It's the will of the head of the household on which you are excluded from the family register this time."
"Nonsense… father couldn't have…"
Eri murmured in denial of reality, and Calion scrunched his brows in displeasure.
