Chapter 376 – A New Name

If I kept secret that I was from headquarters, Stella would be greatly disappointed when it was revealed later.
It was better to hit the falcon first, and it was right to lay the tile first before the lies bite their tail.
Of course, you will still feel sorry for me, but I think it’s much better than being caught after the relationship deepens.

Beep-! Pushik-!

[Treatment completed.]

After getting out of the medical device, I tried to move my broken arm.
The bones are all attached, but there is a slight tingling sensation.
As of today, we should refrain from using magic until we put malicious intent into Stella’s Aether, but we should avoid getting injured if at all possible.

Even with Boyoung, you shouldn’t let him run into you if possible.
After getting out of bed, I lovingly stroked the high-performance medical device.
I don’t know if I’ll be using it often in the future, but why not just roll it?

Gee-!

The door to the medical room opens and Stella enters.
I peeked into the hall and saw that everyone was gathered, and from the looks on their faces, it seemed that they had explained the situation to Stella in a nutshell.
She couldn’t even imagine in her dreams that everyone would cheat on her now.

At this time, Stella had changed her clothes.
A puffy dress. Sehwa’s clothes are comfortable to wear at home.
Glancing over Stella’s shoulder, she saw Adele stamping her foot.
She had a full bottle of strawberry milk in her hand, and it seemed she was going to give it to her youngest child, Stella.

I thought he would be jealous, but that reaction seems to like Stella.
Quite a surprise.
With an apologetic smile, I stopped Stella from biting her nails like someone with mania.

“Your fingernails are getting shorter. Don’t tear it.”

Then Stella hurriedly lowered her hand and asked.

“Brother… Are you okay? How is her arm…?”

Even though there must be a mountain of questions, I’m happy to ask how they’re doing first.
I answered after closing the door of the medical room and raising my injured arm.

“I’m fine. You? It’s okay?”

“I… Can’t breathe…”

It was a word with all sorts of meanings.
I mean it’s so confusing.
I’m worried about the future, and I’m sure I’m worried about the agency, Boyoung, and her younger brother.

“Take a deep breath. Slowly.”

“Whoa… Haa… Whoa…”

I feel it every time, but our doleong listens to me very well.
She placed her hand on her chest and evened her breath.
Could it have calmed down a bit? There was a slight hint of resentment in her eyes.

“Seo, I heard from the seniors. Did you intentionally approach me…?”

Because she’s a senior… That’s why she was liked by Adele.
I silently shook my head before confessing.

“Right.”

“Now I… What should I do…? I heard an explanation, but I have no idea what is what… My head hurts.”

Judging from the reaction now, it seems that I haven’t heard how to charge the device yet.
If you know this, you will be astounded.
Carefully tugging at her Stella’s arm, I seated her on her medical device bed.

“You can live your normal life.”

“How do you live normally? I already…”

Stella, speechless, grabbed her own right wrist where her device was loaded.
It was an act of knowing his mission as a hero.
I said, sitting next to her.

“Confused? I’m sorry, could you wait a minute? I had to contact the CEO… So you didn’t, did you?”

“I didn’t have time to do it. But oppa, is that important right now…?”

“It doesn’t matter. You must be worried now.”

“Oh, anyway…! You’re quitting now…”

It was Stella who was about to scream out in frustration, but then lowered her voice again.
That’s a rice cake to throw at later, when our relationship gets deeper here.
It’s not yet to the point where you hold onto me while shedding all your tears and mucus.

“Don’t stop. I will continue to work as a manager.”

A blush came over Stella’s face.
Opening her eyes wide, she looks at me with her half-confident shot.

“Really…? The doctor said that my brother is very busy here…”

“I was busy at first. Right now, headquarters is on track to some extent, so it’s okay. How are you meeting people? It’s okay?”

“Yeah…They are all good people. Senior Adaline took care of me especially well… But you know… Did you say that?”

“What?”

“The other day… Who said that among the beast slayers he likes the best…”

Can you tell It’s obvious that Adele is about to go into a rage.
I laughed and replied.

“Only I know.”

Stella let out a sigh of relief at him and asked.

“Unconditionally, keep it a secret until you die… Okay?”

“Why? Are you embarrassed after coming here? Do you care?”

“Ah brother…!”

It’s cute to see him drooping his arms.

“Okay. I won’t talk. I had no intention of doing it. I’ll call the CEO first, so would you like to stay for a while?”

At that, Stella shook her head and touched my arm here and there.

“Boo, obviously the bone… Just popped out… This is really good…”

And then she looks back and forth between her medical device and my arm.
By good, you mean medical devices.
That’s why I took out my cell phone from the locker and turned on the screen.

Over 30 missed calls and over 100 text messages.
All of them were Choi Seung-hwan and Chun Hee-joo.
Fortunately, all of them were calls from a few hours ago.
It seemed that Boyoung took care of it and eased Choi Seunghwan’s worries.

Glancing at Stella, I immediately called Choi Seung-hwan.
Before the sound of the sound of the sound of tururu passed by,

-Hello! Hey! Jihyeok Song!

Seunghwan Choi answered the phone.
The voice was so loud that Stella turned her head to hear it.
He suffered only minor injuries, and it would be fine if he said that the treatment went well.
After reassuring Stella with my eyes, I poured out excuses.

@@

“Youngest! You are the youngest!”

A cute voice came from behind.
Stella, who was leaving the lab with Jihyeok, looked back.
Adaline is coming running with a large plastic bag.

Adele was different from the image she had imagined of her, she was a person who jumped with joy as soon as she met him.
She first approached her, acted friendly, and even introduced the rest of the Beast Slayers except for Sehwa.
When she introduced Dr. Jennifer Cash, she hesitated as if she was scared, but she took care of herself first.

And she herself, thanks to her Adele, was able to quickly clear her mind of her confusion.
Of course, others were good too.
However, Sehwa gave off a leader force and felt a bit strict, and YuRia, Sylvia, and the doctor were afraid to approach because of their unique atmosphere.

If it wasn’t for Adele’s friendly nature, he would have been sitting in the lab blankly, doing nothing himself.
She is the petite and cute girl in front of her now, even if she stays still, she will be the one who brightens the atmosphere around her.
It was so lively. A person named Adele.

But the maknae… The title is so funny.
No, she was called by Adele, and she was right to say she was funny.
Stella smiled broadly and replied vigorously.

“Yes, senior!”

Adele’s normally blushing face is in full bloom.
She rushed over and put a plastic bag in Stella’s hand.

“This is my favorite strawberry milk. Drink it three times a day!”

I hear it’s pretty heavy.
Stella peered inside her and opened her mouth slightly.
It was because she had more than twenty strawberry milk, even if she had estimated it.

“This, all of this…? Even if I drink it three times a day, I think the expiration date will pass…”

“Is it…? Then drink five of them.”

Adele was a little… Innocent at best, stupid at worst.
But I didn’t even think about the latter.
Perhaps it was because Adele’s image fit perfectly with her innocence.

It was said that she came from a planet that seemed like something out of a science fiction novel, so Stella was curious about where Adele lived.
Come to think of it, Sylvia also said she came from another planet…
She’s astounded by that, and she’s easygoing, but she’s also funny to herself.

“I-I will…”

“If something happens in the future, should I be the first to call? Understand?”

Adele holding Stella’s own hand and repeating her request over and over again.
Stella smiled brightly as her Adele’s feelings were conveyed.

“Okay, senior!”

“Mmmm…!”

Adele gave a satisfied smile and looked at Jihyeok this time.

“Mr. Jihyeok! It’s the day the maknae came, so why don’t you have a welcome party or something?”

“Welcome party? I have to. I do, but… Not today.”

“Why?”

“Stella is unconscious right now. She also needs time to realize who she really is.”

“Then can I put Stella to sleep at my house tonight?”

“She said Stella has a younger brother. I’ll be worried if my sister comes over after staying out.”

“Ahh… I’m so sorry… I’m so sorry…”

Adele let out a sigh.
Jihyeok smiled softly and approached her Adele, and he met her eyes with hers.

“I’ll tell you to call me later.”

“…..”

“Okay?”

“Yes…”

Adele, her shoulders drooping, waved her hand at Stella.

“Goodbye…”

More than I imagined, I am truly saddened.
She takes care of Alex every day, and it feels pretty good to be in the position of being taken care of by her.
The feeling of being loved as the maknae.
Feeling Adele’s sincerity, her heart becomes more stable.

Come to think of it, Jihyeok and Adele are the same age, so why do they always respect each other?
It’s not like I’m not close to you… Are you giving me special treatment?
I’ll ask later.

Stella, who had been silently listening to the conversation between the two, said with an apologetic expression.

“I’ll make time soon, senior.”

“Really…?”

“Of course. I want to be with you too.”

Did this candy coating work?
Adele, who quickly regained her tension, returned to her exciting steps.
Stella, who was looking at her back, said to Ji-hyeok.

“I didn’t know you could lie so well.”

“I’m sorry I lied to you. I thought it was better than taking a blind approach.”

“No… Not this… I’m talking about when I explain the situation to the CEO. How can you say such a thing without changing your expression? I think I can debut as a con artist.”

“Is that so? Shall I audition at this point too?”

That’s not right.
If Jihyeok goes in as an acting trainee, then someone else will be his manager.
I didn’t like it when someone other than Jihyeok drove the car.
Stella, who tried to answer with a straight face, was dumbfounded at herself for being so serious about what she said as a joke.

‘That’s how I…’

Are you saying you like Jihyeok?
Even in the current situation where you should be disappointed or angry at Ji-hyeok, seeing that you have little resentment toward him…
Probably right.
Jihyeok said to Stella, who was spreading delusions.

“Let’s go. I have to take you and go to the agency.”

“Why am I not going?”

“Looking at it, I alone is enough. The CEO is also worried about you, so go home and get some rest today. I’ll ask you to cancel tomorrow’s schedule.”

I was passionate about my life as a singer, but I desperately needed a break today.
It was because the physical and mental fatigue was no joke.
All kinds of information rushed in, and his head felt like it was about to explode.
Today, I just wanted to sleep at home without thinking, covering myself with a soft blanket.

“Yeah… Thank you. But what about cars…? Our car overturned.”

“You can use the headquarters one.”

“It’s been a while since my arm was treated… Can I drive?”

“It’s okay. There are no abnormalities in the bones and muscles.”

Stella nodded and followed Ji-hyeok, then internally complained.
Because of that hideous monster, his second home, the van, was destroyed.
How much she gave me… I’m going crazy and jumping up and down.

Still… It didn’t feel bad.
You just have to start over from the beginning.
As she accepted the headquarters’ proposal, as she was reborn as a hero.
Stella, who was walking close to Jihyeok, said.

“Brother.”

“Yes?”

“Can I do well…?”

“I trust you.”

That short word is more powerful than attaching other misayeogu.
It could be because Jihyeok, who I like, said that.

“Do you know Boyoung’s sister? That her brother is from headquarters.”

“My sister has no idea. You know I’m a manager because I really need money.”

“… I guess…”

“The more I look at it, the more lies come out. Sorry to disappoint you.”

I was disappointed. Not now but.

“If you know, would you like to stop by the agency and then come to my house?”

“Will you just rest for today?”

“I have heard many things from the people at headquarters, but there are still many things I do not know. Is not it?”

“Right.”

“Then what should I do?”

“As Saehwa said, if you focus only on being a singer now…”

Stella shook her head to interrupt Jihyeok’s words.
Then he said quietly.

“We need to discuss how to talk to Alex. Is not it?”

Jihyuk scratched the back of his head.
Judging by the look on his face, he must have felt very sorry for himself.

“Yeah well… Then I’ll drop you off, stop by the agency, and then come back.”

He was Ji-hyeok, who said that he was aware of his mistakes and that he would understand.
I’m going to use this as an excuse to keep Ji-hyuk stuck for a few days.
Stella thought so,

Ugh-!

I rummaged in my pocket when my new cell phone vibrated.
The caller was [Senior Adelaine].

[( ̀ ᴗ ́ )و]

Stella saw the emoticon and giggled! And she suppressed a laugh.
The meaning of cheer up seems clear… But it’s so cute.
Adele’s heart to take care of her is clearly revealed, so I’m glad…
She seems to be able to enjoy her headquarters life quite well.
