Chapter 98

Annette, her face drawn in half a day, could not get up from the bed and groaned.However, Lapel, who had satisfied his greed her, had a much softer face than in the morning.He kindly brought Annette dinner personally.

Lapel glanced at her over her bed tray and cut up her meat her. Is it because of the white blanket? Annette's face she looked particularly white today, which made it even more beautiful. Holding her her, sucking her her, and rolling her to her heart's content her. After all, it was true that her own wife was the prettiest woman in the world.

'I did a really good job getting married.'

Lapel stopped and looked at her, even her hands that were cutting her her meat her involuntarily. But maybe it's because she stared too obsessively? Feeling their gaze, Annette lifted her head pitifully like a universe. Been numb by the thief, was started. Seeing this, Annette asked helplessly.

“If you want to eat meat, will you give it to me? I'm upset anyway…….”

Annette thought that Lapel wanted to eat more of her meat her, so she looked at her. Rafel shook her head with a smile at the nonsensical remark her. Her mouth her. Annette, who inadvertently accepted and ate it, tilted her head at her unusual attitude her today. And in a worried voice she asked him.

“You, what happened? It seems a bit strange today.”

Annette was worried that Rafel might have noticed her whereabouts her her the night before He had a twist, so if he figured something out of her, he never honestly asked Instead, he tended to be naughty with Annette, or cling to her.

'If it wasn't like that, there's no way Lafel would be nice to me.'

Unfortunately, Annette's confidence in Lapel was at such a low level.However, Rafel, who did not know this, opened her ears.

'Is this an opportunity now?'

Rafel wanted to confess her true feelings her to her right away.Unfamiliar yet fearful, yet unable to do anything about this terrible feeling.

But she was afraid to confess too quickly to Annette.There were too many problems woven between Rafel and her for that.

'If I confess, I'll have to tell her the truth.'

If it had been her old lapel of her, she would have kept the problem of her origin her in fear that she would notice. It was obvious that even if Annette had asked her first, she would have coldly cut it off with disgust. Rafel had a great inferiority complex to her own maternal lineage her.

'I'd rather just be a commoner…… There wouldn't have been a need to hide it this far.'

Recalling what his mother was like Rafel held his head Annette was so lenient with him that it was hard to believe that he was of blood supremacist Bavaria But can he still do that after finding out about his own mother his his?

Rafel did not know that she had interrogated her her maternal uncle her her yesterday.And because of that, Annette already knew everything.

'What should I do?'

Rafel's chin, which was alone in useless worries, naturally gained strength. The desire to hide it forever, if possible, was still like a chimney. But Rafel now understands the seriousness of the problem. .

He was now, as Hamilton said, ready to kill his ego rather than lose Annette.But he could n't figure out where or how to break his luck his.It was too heavy a story to just blurt out.

'What should I start with?'

I don't know if it's swordsmanship, but I seriously thought about Lapel, who had poor conversation skills.After a lot of thought, he decided to take a look at Annette's thoughts first.To confess right away, Lafel was not very honest. He was afraid that he might get hurt. Rafel, who had a serious expression, opened his mouth in a defensive manner.

“Annette. How important do you think lineage is?”

“Oh no.”

Annette sighed when she saw Rafel's face looking somehow uneasy. She mistakenly assumed that Rafel had heard bad things about him for being an illegitimate child. So, for some reason, she got up early in the morning and came out to meet her because her heart was easy, and she had been clinging to her ever since.

Annette tended to sympathize with the pain of those around her. Especially if it was a Lapel problem. To Annette, the lapel was the most painful finger to bite. He looked stronger than anyone else, but inside he was unstable and weak. Lapel look even more precarious.

'Who else? The one who said useless things to him.'

Annette was furious with strangers who did not know her face.She gladly stopped eating, got up from her bed, and came to Rafel's side of her.She and she patted him on the shoulder and she comforted him.

“Don't pay attention to what others say, Lapel. To be honest…… I think lineage and origin are still important issues in Deltium. But they are important because they serve as the soil that makes up a human being. Is difficult for a large tree to grow in barren land where there is nothing.”

Annette paused, carefully choosing her thoughts her. It hurt even more because I heard about his past from Ben last night. Here, she was worried about what to say so that Lapel could be comforted. She skipped words over and over again, and in the end, all that remained was heartfelt advice.

“Rapel, you are a tree that has grown taller than anyone else in a barren land. So, someone will envy you and try to slander you. But I'm proud of you Seriously. You are a much greater man than those lucky enough to be born into a good family.”

“Annette….. . “

Rafel realized that she had been listening to her answer without her even breathing.It was simply a question asked to find out what she was thinking, but like Annette, she gave a sincere answer.Hearing this, Rafel strangely thought that his eyes were getting hot. Why am I like this?

Rafel rubbed the back of her rough nose with the back of her hand, then looked at her. Somehow, as for Annette, it seemed that she would not care what her maternal lineage she was. She won't hurt herself either. Lapel, who for the first time in her life decided to trust her others, summoned her courage to her and opened her mouth.

“Annette, the question you asked the other day. He asked me if I liked you at all.”

“Yes? Why is that all of a sudden……”

While Annette was talking about her lineage her, she wondered why the topic was jumping this way. At that time, Lapel was silent until the end, and Annette was hurt. As the miserable memory came back, Annette's expression her naturally hardened. Not see this, closed his eyes tightly and confessed his feelings this time.

“I've been thinking about you ever since, Annette, you…… I like it.”

Annette's eyes widened at her unexpected confession of her. She looked at Lapel with slightly quivering eyes. The moment she saw her own face her reflected in her eyes her, Lapel was seized by her urge to get up from her seat and run away at any moment. Her clenched fists her trembled, and her eardrums her choked with the sound of her own heart beating. But there was nowhere to run from those pretty eyes.

As she looked at Lapel, her eyes slowly became moist. Annette, biting her lip, looked up at him, unable to utter his words her. Rafel thought maybe she would cry.

“Thank you, Lapel. It's enough that you don't hate me.”

The answer was that. Annette, as if having said all she had to say, turned to go back to bed. Seeing this, Rafel felt uneasy as if his feet were splitting into pieces. She turned her back to him.

“What is the answer? It's not that I don't hate you, but rather I like you!!”

As the urgency grew, a more sincere confession flowed out. Annette was taken aback by Lapel's overly powerful attitude of hers. The emotions he was pushing at, who was one head taller than himself, were very vivid. And was attacking him.

Annette, who opened his eyes wide and looked at Lapel, sighed.It seemed impossible to cover up his confession of her in an appropriate way.A serious question finally escaped her lips as she turned around.

“How much?”

“…What?”

“Lapel, how much do you like me?”
