Just seeing that face again was disgusting enough, and now that I had heard insults, my shoulders stiffened.
“I misspoke.”
As I grumbled, Karl apologized smoothly. Strangely, his expression seemed more relaxed.
When I put down the empty glass that had been emptied in one breath, the heat subsided a bit. Meanwhile, Gabeese Parlong had disappeared.
“But that man still doesn’t know that you’re the consort of the Second Prince.”
“We haven’t been close in the palace.”
“What name do you use in the palace?”
Karl, who had been staring at me, chuckled and grinned. His face looked oddly uneasy, and I felt a strange chill.
‘What’s this ominous feeling?’
Unable to understand the English, I tilted my head curiously, and Karl said,
“If we get a bit closer, I’ll let you know.”
There’s nothing that could bring us closer here. However, I couldn’t refute the fact that I was grateful for Karl, who instead of me, gave Gabeese Parlong a taste of his own medicine, and I worried that it might cause him any harm.
“In my opinion, that day may not be far off.”
Karl once again uttered a meaningful remark. Feeling oddly uneasy, I narrowed my eyes.
‘Well, that’s beside the point for now.’
Anyway, since I received help, I should express my gratitude. Feeling a bit awkward, I cleared my throat.
“Thank you for helping. Thanks to you, I avoided getting slapped.”
“For once, you’re thanking me without any fuss.”
Karl chuckled with a teasing tone in response to my slightly mocking expression. Then, as if reading my thoughts, he spoke.
“You don’t have to worry.”
“I wasn’t worried, you know? Since we’ve finished eating, let’s go.”
“Already? The desserts here are quite good.”
“I already had dessert earlier.”
I explained, referring to the indescribable taste of strawberry cake. Smirking, Karl let out a short laugh. Then he nodded.
“All right, then. I have something to attend to anyway.”
“Suddenly?”
“Yeah, suddenly.”
Karl grinned mischievously. With a somewhat eerie smile emanating a mysterious feeling, he led the way, and suddenly, Karl sighed, turning around.
“Since you pretended not to notice when I tried to steal last time, today it’s your turn.”
“I wasn’t trying to steal anything!”
Well, technically, I was trying to steal something, but that was originally mine! My heart!
However, Karl, with a sly smile, simply left the restaurant.
“Ugh, that irritating guy. Anyway, things didn’t go as well as I hoped.”
Standing leisurely behind the glass door, I pulled out my wallet, watching Karl stroll away.
‘Darn it, he came here with such thoughts from the beginning!’
????????????
Cahilun, with a crooked chin, looked down below.
“What should I do with this?”
It was a voice devoid of any emotions, as if looking at an inanimate object. Gabeese, sprawled beneath, desperately writhed his whole body.
“Uh, ugh!”
Watching Gabeese, who was shedding tears, with an emotionless gaze, Cahilun signaled to Randolfs with a nod. Understanding his master’s command, Randolfs untied the cloth covering Gabeese’s mouth.
“W-What is this all about!”
As soon as the cloth was untied, Gabeese shouted. However, his voice, full of terror, lost strength and trembled.
In fact, he still couldn’t fully grasp the situation.
In the midst of contemplating how to deal with the two rascals who insulted me while riding the carriage towards the mansion, he was suddenly attacked.
When he came to his senses, the man from the restaurant was looking down at him coldly.
“D-Do you even know who I am? I am Gabeese Parlong, a masterpiece of the Parlong family and a close aide to the Second Prince. Do you think you’ll get away with this after treating me like this?!”
“Noisy. I guess I should have crushed your mouth back then.”
At Cahilun’s indifferent remark, Gabeese’s eyes widened with astonishment. Come to think of it, the physique and atmosphere seemed somewhat familiar. Unable to continue the conversation for a moment, he asked with an expression of disbelief.
“D-Don’t tell me, that crazy guy who attacked me back then…”
“Do you remember?”
With an unexpected expression, Cahilun showed an interesting look.
“Gasp!”
Gabeese, shocked, took a breath. The unforgettable events of that night unfolded before his eyes.
