Nelucian, as if he had been waiting all this time, detached himself from the tree and asked. Neris knew he had come exactly on time, but for now, she responded as the other party desired.

“Yes. Why are you there? Whom are you waiting for?”

“I waited for you.”

“Really?”

Around Mrs. Hoffman’s mansion, it was late, and the sky was filled with stars. The silver hair of Nelucian sparkled beautifully under the moonlight. The affectionate smile on his face was clearly directed at Neris.

No one would be unhappy with such treatment, especially a twelve-year-old. Shyly lowering her eyes for a moment, Neris approached him with a bashful smile.

“Will you take me home?”

“Of course. It’s not safe for a lady of our house to be walking alone at this late hour.”
Nelucian’s words were true. However, at the same time, they were not true.

Valentine wouldn’t be walking alone at this hour—she would have taken the maid with her, and at this hour, the bodyguard would have been with her. However, Nelucian probably didn’t come to meet Neris for that reason.

Neris felt like she could grasp his thoughts.

‘The atmosphere of a duke’s family’—how sweet that sound was. Once the word stimulated vanity, it would be difficult to refute Nelucian’s words despite receiving various criticisms.

‘Noble families are originally like this.’ Whether a girl from a poor countryside family could fit into a noble family or not was something she didn’t know.

‘In using people, diligence is the same even at this age.’

Truly, doing unnecessary things to make people uncomfortable. In her newly acquired life, Neris wanted to reduce the time spent with Nelucian by even a second.

But how?

“Thank you. The night road is scary, even without that.”

Since he came to use her, she had no choice but to use him in return. As an easy source to gather information.

Nelucian momentarily averted his gaze from Neris’s calm and shy smile.

There was a peculiar feeling in her that attracted attention beyond her pretty face. Mature, calm, and able to understand even difficult stories.

On this side…

‘They seem to know everything about our circumstances?’

But it must be a misconception. Nelucian told himself that. It didn’t make sense.

A twelve-year-old could not possibly imagine what was in his heart.

The two walked along a pretty brick path with the teacher’s residence and administrative building. After a short walk, they turned onto a path leading to Neris’s dormitory.

Many buildings had lights leaking out due to students finishing their evening meals, doing homework, or having pajama parties with friends. Thanks to that, the path wasn’t dark.

“Oppa, did you have a good time at home? Is Duke and Duchess in good health?”

Since Nelucian was obviously waiting for an opportunity to talk to her, Neris opened the conversation first.

Walking with him meant there was news to be gained from him, and there was no need to waste time.

Indeed, with a calm face, Nelucian responded warmly.

“Thanks. Both are well. By the way, do you remember Valentine? My sister. You’re close in age. I had a hard time convincing her to stay back, saying she wants to follow you.”

Neris couldn’t forget Valentine. People usually remember their own murderers. Of course, if the head moves even after death.

She replied innocently, “Of course, I remember. She must be looking forward to starting school soon.”
“He always wanted a younger sister to play with, but all he has is an older brother much older than him. Neris, when Valentine enters school, it would be nice if you could play with her a lot. She has always been lonely.”

How annoying.

It was true that Valentine found Neris interesting. Neris wasn’t the only toy for Valentine. Before the adoption into the Elandria family and even after.

Neris chuckled but responded with a smile, “That would be nice. I also wanted a younger sister.”

It was an inevitable truth that approaching the other party emotionally was more effective than speaking the truth.

Neris definitely had expectations of having a younger sister. Despite being hurt and hurt again, she believed there would be a special place for her in Valentine’s heart because ‘she’s family.’

It was a tragic story until her pitiful death.

Strictly speaking, Neris did have a special place in Valentine’s heart.

A target to kill.

A target to use.

An annoying hybrid dog ready to mock once it becomes useless.

But what would she do knowing that?

“That’s good.”

Nelucian laughed heartily. Then, recalling the news he heard that evening, he cautiously spoke.

“By the way, Neris. Since I’m a senior, some news may be miscommunicated, so I’m asking you directly. Is it true that Rianon Berta from your grade has been isolated after sending me a letter?”

With a tone as if he had just received new information, Neris almost burst into laughter. Considering she was one of the first to know the news on campus?

Suppressing her impulse, she spoke with a worried and innocent tone.

“Well, is that so? I don’t really know about Rianon’s friendships. But it seems like there are a few kids who don’t get along. Even in the cafeteria today… Oh, no, it’s nothing.”

Deliberately stuttering, Nelucian made a worried expression. After hesitating as if it was difficult to say such things, he mumbled.

“Well, of course, I was embarrassed at that time… But if she’s not getting along well with her friends just because of that, it’s pitiful. And as a senior, it puts me in a difficult position. If it’s okay, could you take care of her a bit? If she’s alone, please look out for her, okay?”

The words Neris had been waiting for finally came.

Nelucian’s words were truly masked with genuine concern. But he didn’t actually worry about Rianon.

She was sure of it. Tomorrow, the awaited news would arrive. The last puzzle to fit for Alekto.

So, even in the nauseating time spent with Nelucian, there was value.

“Really? If it’s tough for Oppa, I guess I can’t help it. Honestly, I didn’t think Rianon was such a bad kid.”
Neris responded calmly. Nelucian, who was already aware that Rianon had somewhat ignored Neris, lightly laughed and praised her.

“Neris is truly kind.”

Little would he know. In her previous life, how far she had gone, how innocently she had believed in him despite being deceived, used, and ultimately abandoned. Someday, she would have to tell him that story. Neris smiled with her eyes.

“I feel embarrassed hearing Oppa say that.”

When yandere male lead believes she loves him — but she never did

“How dare you!”

“How dare you make me love you, only to cast me aside as nothing more than a friend?!?

“I will never accept that.”

“I will never let you return to him.”

“Even if I have to burn myself to ashes.”

“Even if I must shatter my purity, my dignity, my very soul.”

“I will never let you escape me!”

This was the first novel that introduced me to the matriarchal genre. I’ve read it three times already!

At first, the male lead despised the female lead. Later, he misunderstood that she liked him, so he condescendingly and reluctantly reciprocated her feelings.

Then, he suddenly discovered that she was kind to everyone in the same way, and there was already someone she cherished in her heart, and that person was not him.

The male lead couldn’t believe it, he became angry and crazy. He was determined to capture her body and heart by any means necessary.

Synopsis:

Want to see how a green tea bitch male lead falls in love with the female lead?

Want to see how he flirtatiously pursues the female lead?

Want to see how he gets slapped in the face repeatedly?

The male lead is a green tea bitch, a poisonous lotus, jealous, ruthless, unscrupulous, with a venomous heart, and he’s also a delusional maniac.

The female lead is righteous, positive energy-filled, kind, a holy mother.

Let’s see how two people with extreme personalities come together~
