Chapter 75.1

Billiers murmured with his shoulders drooping.

“I don’t know what happened either. When I came to my senses, I was already kissing her.”

“There’s no way you don’t know anything about it. What were you talking about?” Gerald threw an interested look.

Well, Gerald was not interested in others. He wasn’t interested in any other romance. It was because of Louella that he expressed his interest now about it.

Flora was close to Louella, and Louella was very interested in Flora. He was sure that she would like it if he told her this story.

“I really don’t remember. It was then I realized that I’m not good at drinking. More like, I shouldn’t be drinking. Although this was the first time that I drank a lot in the first place.” Billiers touched his head.

“After that? Do you remember when you kissed her?” he asked.

Billiers shook his head with crying eyes. It seemed like he didn’t remember it either. Gerald, who saw Billiers’ expression, smirked. “How was the next morning?”

“……fortunately, I was alone. I had my clothes on.”

“Aha.”

“Flora said she’d be in touch… I don’t even know what to say! How the hell did this happen?”

Gerald walked out leaving the frustrated Billiers in his lab. He had already nothing left to listen to. The purified blood of God could help with Nisephor and Flora.

Previously, Flora and Billiers’ relationship was clearly skewed toward him. But now it appears to be leaning towards Flora.

Flora took the lead in just one night.Gerald will remember all of this.

“Dad!”

As Louella’s mother said, her father got up from his seat. Indeed, the meds they made worked. Her aunt must have helped him, as she was the one who took care of her dad.

Louella’s father held her in his arms. “Lulu. My daughter. Did you worry a lot?”

“Yes…” She was afraid that her dad would leave her again this time.

She swallowed her words inside as she hugged her father tightly.

HIs hand swept her back. She heard her mother’s laughter coming out of the bedroom with her father.

“You’re acting like an eight-year-old, not an eighteen year old lady, Lulu.”

“I don’t care. I’m just happy, mom.”

She had just got her dad back from Nisephor safe and sound, so for today……. She would have enjoyed this peace more if it weren’t for the hands that snatched her back.

“My father is going to faint, you pig.”

“Alexid!” Alexid gently pushed his younger sister aside and hugged his dad.

“I’m glad that you’re back, Father.”

He was trying to push her away from their dad. She tried to kick Alexid in the shin, but she ended up stopping. Alexid, who was looking at his father with a pale face, came to mind.

Alexid had already shed tears at his father’s death since he became an adult in the past, but was now smiling. That alone was already fine for Louella.

As planned, she protected her father and her family’s happiness and laughter. Going back at this age was worthwhile. Her mother wrapped her arms around her shoulder.

“Lulu.”

“What?”

“Thank you.”

“What do you mean?” She pretended not to know, but her mother laughed as if she knew everything.

“It would never be a coincidence that Billiers completed the drug in a timely manner and you had something that wasn’t even a lead for it. You are involved with it, aren’t you?”

“…….” Lulu didn’t respond and just looked her mother in the eye.

“I don’t know what happened, but you did a great job. Lulu.”

She thought it would end there because she definitely refused the Crown Prince’s invitation. He had some ego left, and it seemed that I hurt it. I didn’t think the Crown Prince would come to her even when she already tried to bail over it.

Her prediction was off the mark. The Crown Prince sent a message through Alexid that he would come to visit her. Ah. She was happy that her dad woke up but it seemed that another problem was brewing.

“What the hell are you doing, Lulu? Are you sick? Where are you sick? Louella, don’t be too close to the Crown Prince!”

“What did you say to the Crown Prince? Don’t tell me, you hurt his feelings without noticing, did you?” Alexid sighed and shook his head.

“Do I look that stupid? First of all, I said that I was dying of pain and that I can’t get out of bed because I have a cold and body aches.”

“Good job!” It’s worth getting older! Her older brother became very sensible over time.

Alexid continued, “Now explain exactly. What’s going on here?”

“……I guess the Crown Prince looked at me differently after that day.”
