Chapter 60

“Young master!”

“Noah Windsor!”

“Young master, what’s wrong?”

The servants came rushing over. Noah pushed away their hands and staggered forward.

“Young master! You shouldn’t be walking around like this right now!”

“The personal physician said you need to rest—!”

So noisy.

Noah focused all his strength on walking. He nearly fell several times and had to lean against the wall.

But even so, he couldn’t stop his steps.

Where am I going right now?

I don’t know.

I don’t know, but…

“…”

Before he knew it, he was in front of that woman’s door.

Noah held his breath. As if entranced, he grabbed the door handle and opened it. And…

He saw it.

That woman smiling like a flower bud.

“That happened? You really went through a lot.”

And he saw more.

That woman extending her white hand to place it on the man’s shoulder. Gently wrapping around it. His shoulder. His flesh…

Disgusting.

“You must have had a hard time bringing that item. But thanks to Lete—”

At that moment, the woman’s words were cut short.

Through the narrow gap of the door. She had met Noah’s blazing eyes.

“Noah? Why are you here…”

I feel dizzy.

So much that I don’t even know what I’m thinking.

“Filthy.”

But he didn’t regret saying those words.

“Can’t you live without men? You’re dirty, disgusting, and vulgar.”

After saying that, he was certain those were his true feelings.

This isn’t the time for you to be flirting with men. The place you should be isn’t there.

How obsessed with men must you be to forget what’s most important to you?

“Don’t defile my sister’s body.”

That’s right. That’s my sister’s body.

A fraud like you shouldn’t be in there. If that’s the case, then rather, rather…

“Just die instead.”

Then the woman’s eyes shook violently. As if she was hurt. As if she was in pain.

Only then did Noah smile.

Ah, look at that. That stupid face hurting so much from just one word of mine.

Thud!

“Noah Windsor!”

“Young master!”

Noah collapsed right there. As he closed his eyes weakly, thick tears fell down.

This is because of the fever.

Because of the fever. Because the fever is too severe. Because I’ve been tormented by nightmares…

* * *

“Are you alright?”

After Noah was carried away by the servants.

“Miss, are you alright?”

The secretary asked again.

Am I alright?

Dana silently placed her hand on her chest. Then she nodded.

“Yes.”

She was fine.

But for just a brief moment, it hurt.

That sharp pain that struck her chest at the words telling her to die.

Fortunately, it disappeared quickly now.

Probably she’ll never hurt because of Noah again.

“I’m fine now.”

Dana smiled with relief.

“Lete, go deliver the scripture to Emperor Justio.”

Even if it’s fake, it’s fine.

Those damn Windsors, I don’t care whether they’re all killed or not.

The next day, a letter came from the Emperor.

It said he would investigate the original scripture more and return.

And I heard he left the Imperial Palace again.

‘It must look real even to His Majesty.’

It seems he’s planning to start a full investigation with other theologians.

* * *

“Why don’t you smile a little.”

And finally, the night of the back garden—the day of the banquet hosted by Dana arrived.

Inside the carriage, Lyos spoke with a displeased expression.

“Are you planning to have that death-like expression at the party hall too?”

“This isn’t the party hall, is it?”

So she replied curtly.

“I’ll play my role properly at the party hall. So don’t mind what expression I make here.”

The deal with the Emperor made her realize once again.

Lyos Grants, this bastard had properly ruined her life.

‘Bad guy.’

If it was an emotion that could change so easily, then don’t hold onto me. With just a 3-year terminal love!

‘I’m an idiot for being swayed by it too.’

A person who acted like he’d love me forever, then changed, betrayed me, and didn’t even feel sorry.

He’s definitely a bastard not worth associating with.

Dana hated him.

‘I wish he’d just die.’

To that extent.

* * *

“Crown Prince Lyos Grants and Lady Danae Windsor are entering!”

Dana entered with Lyos.

And she faced the reaction she had expected.

“This time it’s not Lady Alice Windsor?”

“Didn’t they say the two had a falling out?”

“Since she’s hosting tonight’s banquet, he must have chosen her as his partner.”

Already exhausting. Dana let out a low sigh as she sat in the Royal Seats.

Then Lyos muttered beside her.

“You’re not smiling here either.”

“I am smiling.”

“Smile more. To my eyes, you look like you’re suffering.”

“That’s because you’re watching me closely from nearby.”

“So make it look like you’re smiling to me too.”

“….”

“Try smiling.”

This is really annoying.

What kind of ridiculous demand is he making? Dana glared at him.

‘Is he picking a fight?’

However, Lyos had an unexpectedly serious expression.

“How am I supposed to smile?”

“What?”

“Don’t you know how agonizing the time I spend with Your Highness is for me?”

Then Lyos frowned and glared at her.

‘What am I supposed to do?’

Did he think I would like it? When she glared back at him with that kind of look, Lyos clicked his tongue.

“You don’t know how to accept kindness.”

“What did you say?”

“Don’t you think I did this for you today?”

What on earth is he talking about?

Ah. Could it be.

‘He brought me as his partner to save my face?’

After all, if he wanted to, no matter who was hosting the banquet, he could have chosen Alice as his partner.

For a moment, she almost burst out laughing in disbelief. If not for all the watching eyes, she would have.

‘This is absurd.’

However, she could roughly understand Lyos’s train of thought.

Why wouldn’t she?

“But you two really do look wonderful together.”

“After all, the one who suits Crown Prince well is Lady Danae Windsor.”

“I heard she recently found and purified another Corrupted Land that was in its dormant phase!”

Such stories were already circulating.

Indeed, Alice was drinking champagne with a gloomy expression in a corner of the party hall with Sandra.

‘So, I could have ended up like that, but he saved me from that fate?’

He’s bestowed his favor, so be grateful—is that it?

“What truly unnecessary consideration.”

Dana looked straight into Lyos’s black eyes as she spoke.

“I don’t need Your Highness’s kindness or anything like that.”

“…Is that so?”

“Yes.”

“Fine. I’ll keep that in mind.”

Lyos’s response was expressionless.

He didn’t seem particularly bothered by her answer. He simply tilted his whiskey glass indifferently.

However, Dana soon realized that was an illusion.

Lyos, who had set down his glass, gestured toward someone.

‘What is he doing?’

The nobles’ gazes focused on the Crown Prince’s gesture. And everyone turned their heads in unison toward where his gaze was directed. There was….

“M-me?”

Alice was blinking with a flustered expression.
