CH 3

“Undine, I'm going to call someone, what will you do?”

* * *

Adrian's mansion was really magnificent.

The interiors were grand, the furnishings were elegant, and the ornaments were sumptuous.

Adrian seemed to be this type of person.

Upon arriving at the dining room, the attendants opened both doors wide. When I entered, the child I saw in the morning was sitting first.

“Du, Duke-nim! You, you’re here?”

A child who looked to be four or five years old jumped up and bowed. Her pink hair, tied in two ponytails, swayed and fluttered.

‘Oh my, it's so cute when she ties it like that.’

I sat down, resisting the urge to stamp my feet.

“Have a seat.”

“Yes!”

After the child sat down, the meal began to be served.

Did you sleep well yesterday? What kind of food do you like?

There were so many things I wanted to ask. However, I couldn't say anything because I didn't know anything about the child.

What is your relationship with me?

‘You, you're not my daughter, are you?’

Eyy, no matter how broken Adrian's personality was, she wouldn't have made her daughter call her Duke-nim.

……No way, right?

‘If I’m possessed, tell me the information about the people around me. You ruined author.’

I had no choice but to stare at the table, when the child asked cautiously.

“By the way, Duke-nim.”

“Go ahead.”

“Are, are you not sick anymore?”

“……Was I sick?”

“I heard that you, you keep, keep getting sick, these days. The, the other day.”

“Ah…….”

That's why she came to my bedroom in the morning. She’s worried because I'm sick.

‘Good child.’

The child seemed to really like Adrian. Adrian wouldn't have treated her warmly though.

“You…….”

Before I said ‘You have a beautiful heart’, the instruction popped up.

[Stage 1: (With a cold look) Piace.]

‘Is her name Piace? Oh, it’s cut…….’

[Step 2: (Firmly) Are you bragging that you eavesdropped on it? Go back to your bedroom now and reflect on yourself.]

‘You crazy bastard, you need to feed her breakfast! This is abuse!’
