It’s A Misunderstanding That I’m Dating The Villain

In my 24th year of reincarnation, I was living a peaceful life as an insignificant knight commander barely mentioned in the original story. Content with my uneventful existence, I avoided meddling in the main plot.But during an undercover investigation, I accidentally stumbled upon the villain in the act."Sir Clara, have you been waiting for this opportunity? Clever, very clever.""No, no! I swear to the gods, I have no intention of exposing your identity!""Hah, and what reason do I have to trust you?"That's how the shadowy mastermind decided to keep me under his watchful eye."Here, take this. I bought it just for you.""Why would I accept this...?""The flower matches the color of your hair. And now that I see it, it suits you perfectly."Wait... why does everyone think the villain is pursuing me out of affection?This was not part of the plan!
