Chapter 13

Chapter 13

I opened my eyes and looked up at Sue. Unlike Lucian, who is a strong figure, Sue has a graceful impression.

He had a keyword that matched him just like Lucian. I thought of a keyword about Sue.

Beauty, sweet, pure, bright, and beautiful were keywords for Lucian’s own love affair, and later when the content of the plot became deeper and deeper, the number of wounds, narrow dodges, escapes, and scenarios leading to unconsciousness were created by him.

I mean, he’s kind and cheerful now.

Lucian had hoped that he wouldn’t be a cause for regret, but it seemed like Sue didn’t want the ending to change.

But why are you looking at me like this? Are you shy?

“Uh… who are you?”

But you’re going to be talking informally since the first time you met?

It’s good to be close, but you’re the child of a baron and Lucian is the child of a duke, didn’t you skip too much progress?

There is no way he would know what I was thinking about, so I answered with a clear smile.

Oh, my God, he’s laughing.

“I’m Noah de Castilla. I’m supposed to be friends with Lucian from today onwards, so I said it comfortably and informally… does that put you in a bad mood?”

[e/n: Noah is the rumored Sue we have heard about, in case anyone is confused. Not sure why he has the two different names.]

You’ve been friends with Lucian since day one!

As expected, the main character and the main character meet differently. It took me a really long time to get close to him!

Noah, who was looking at me while I was thinking for a moment, murmured as he lowered his eyes toward Lucian.

“It seems that your sister doesn’t like me.”

No! Why would I hate you?

To put it into perspective, Lucian is the best, but I liked him a lot, too.

“No, that’s not it?”

Noah looked at me again due to my reply. His smile looked so innocent.

“Really? That’s a relief.”

Lucian didn’t say anything while we were talking.

He was just looking at the two of us. Then he slowly opened his mouth.

“Baron Castilla.”

After we finished our greetings, he called Noah in a lower voice than before.

“Come on, I told you to speak comfortably. That’s what they have us do in our salons.”

Oh, that’s what the salon does. Okay, I got it. I got it.

“Did the salon make that kind of rule?”

Noah nodded at my question.

Oh no. His hair ruffles smoothly whenever he moves. It looks so soft.

How’s his skin though?

“The purpose of our salon is to state our rank and status and meet comfortably. I don’t think I can make a real friend within my class.”

Oh, that’s a good idea.

“So Lucian must have had a hard time today. I could tell at a glance that he was embarrassed.”

Oh, that’s why you took care of Lucian. Good job, good job.

“But he said he had a sister. So I came here to see you even though I knew it was rude.”

You wanted to see me? Oh, my. You thought the same thing as me, didn’t you? I wanted to see you so much, too.

“You thought I have no manners, didn’t you?”

He looked perfect with his eyebrows furrowed as if he was in trouble.

That’s a perfect expression. It’s just lovely! I just want to bite you! Kyahh!

“Not at all!”

I turned my head around. That’s never going to happen. I can’t refuse such a wonderful visit by Sue.

No matter how much I think about it, he really is a good-looking guy.

I thought it would never happen, but I was especially weak to his beautiful appearance.

“Really? Then I’m relieved.”

Oh, I feel like my eyes are being purified.

Oh my gosh.

“Can I call you Brother Noah?”

While I’m at it, let’s be friends!

Noah’s eyes widened and he bent down at my eye level after hearing my lively remarks.

It was a refreshing smile that made me feel refreshed.

Then Lucian stood in front of me.

“Young Man, I’ll see you next time. I’d like you to leave me alone for today…”

What are you doing, Lucian? I want to play with Noah more!

I tapped him on the back, but Lucian didn’t look at me. My view was completely blocked, so I didn’t even see what the two looked like side by side.

I want to see you two together! It’s no exaggeration to say that I possessed this body just for this!

Get out of my way! I want to see him!

I stomped my feet and tried to go around his side. But Lucian was one step faster.

Holding me up in his arms, he turned his back without listening to Noah’s answer.

“Ooh!”

Hugging him, I looked back. Noah just smiled and waved.

“Brother.”

Without answering my call, he went straight up to his room.

What’s wrong? If I was him and met Sue, I would have felt something funny or tingly…

What is this kind of reaction? Didn’t you get close and talk to him? No, Noah’s the only one who talks, right? What the hell happened?

Holding me in his arms, we sat on the sofa and I looked up at him.

When he was with him, his face showed few traces of a smile that had disappeared and was not very different from how he was before when we first met.

I never thought he’d be this shy… but I must have sheltered him too much.

I didn’t know you’d be so cold to the other male lead.

You shouldn’t do this. I want to see a happy ending for the two of you!

“Brother.”

I called out to him. He glanced at me when I talked.

Oh, I can’t. I wanted to get mad, but I can’t.

How can he look at people like that? What are you doing? pouting?! Why are you pouting at me?!

He was so big that he looked very cute.

The tails of his eyes that I had taught to pull up into a smile quickly found their original place.

“Did you enjoy the salon today?”

He sat next to me only then to answer my question.

Yeah, good job. I almost had a dry throat from anticipation.

“It was just so so.”

My eyes crept back to his face at the voice full of disapproval.

“But it’s still your first salon. Go out a few more times.”

“……I see.”

Accepting it as if he couldn’t help it, he faced me straight on. This is so interesting.

In the past, he used to be all about looking sideways at me or only turning his head slightly, but these days, he does eye contact now.

Yeah, good. Very good!

He laughed along as I laughed. I felt good to see his hardened face blooming brightly.

“As expected, you look good with a smile.”

His face bloomed more brightly at my cheerful words.

“I like your smiling face, too.”

“Hehe.”

When did you start expressing yourself so well? It is very commendable.

“Well, let’s go to dinner. I waited to eat with my brother.”

There was no answer from him when I said that, but he made an easy to understand expression instead…

The answer was delivered.

I thought my heart stopped when I saw him smiling shyly.

Don’t rush in like that and drop such a destructive weapon, my favorite. My heart is about to stop.

Oh, what are you going to do about my eyes? It’s so bright that I feel like I’m going to go blind.

I covered my face with my hands and stammered my feet.

In the meantime, Lucian, who returned to his room after dinner, had a cold expression on his face and changed into some simple clothes.

Later, a servant came to assist him, but he didn’t want anyone else to touch him, so he just let him go.

He had a moment of quiet, so he rested his hips on his favorite resting place.

The moonlight fell on his face, which was resting calmly against the window pane. He frowned at the memories of the salon he went to today.

He laughs only in front of Rachel, but he, who had originally had no expressions, will now show his displeasure with his expressions.

“Noah de Castilla.”

He came to him without hesitation from the beginning. As if he knew him, he spoke without hesitation.

Lucian didn’t like him very much.

He regretted not stopping him from following him. If he knew he would show up in front of Rachel just because he was curious, he would have refused him from the beginning.

“I didn’t expect you to come to me…”

It was quite late when he returned, so he thought she would have eaten first.

But when his younger sister said she waited for him, he felt like she was supporting him.

As if immersed in warm water, a comfortable fuzzy feeling rose up from his feet.

He closed his eyes for a moment and thought of Rachel. Her face, which he can recall clearly with his eyes closed, is always smiling.

Eyes resembling the night sky that are always filled with affection. Her eyes were clearly different from those of his father or mother.

And from his own eyes.

Looking at her eyes that are always twinkling and have such vivid warmth, he came to realize that something about his world is wrong.

Lucian recalled his parents. His father’s cold blue eyes that hold deep contempt and his mother’s dry blue eyes that look as if they have given up on life.

Obviously, considering the colors, the eyes of his two parents should normally be brighter, but Rachel’s dark sky colored pupils always seemed clearer and brighter.

“I feel weird.”

When he recalled his sister, who was talking to Noah affectionately, his stomach felt twisted.

Lucian glanced at his stomach. He tried pressing it with his hands, but it didn’t hurt.

However, it was definitely a sensation that I’ve felt before. That happened when my father adopted Rachel.

On that day, my father and sister were together all day long. Breakfast, lunch, tea time, dinner…

Seeing those two people, Lucian felt envious for the first time.

At that time, I could only express it as “I envy you,” but now I think I know exactly what that feeling was.

My stomach feels twisted.

It was obvious jealousy. Jealousy towards Rachel back then but now for Rachel.

“Rachel likes me the most.”

Lucian muttered in a hesitant tone. Or he’s going to make it so that she does.
