“Love?”
Rather, it was me who was embarrassed by the unexpected words. What do you mean love? You’re already in love?
On the contrary, it was me who was bewildered by the unexpected words. What do you mean ‘love’? You’re already in love?
‘I thought I’d make him my mom’s husband, but…’
Somehow, my heart sank, wondering if the relationship between the two had changed without me knowing.
“Bebe’s lovely mother.”
“Ah, is that it?”
“I-Isn’t it…”
I was a little disappointed with the Grand Duke’s words as he spoke too honestly. I was expecting quite a bit, but what did you mean ‘Bebe’s lovely mother’?
“…Huh.”
“Maybe I made a mistake?”
Watching him ask carefully, I nodded my head up and down vigorously. I didn’t say it very well. How could you say this?”
‘My mom is very pretty, very kind and very lovely!’
It was clear that the Grand Duke had no eyes. I rolled my eyes and looked at him, then jumped from my seat.
“What’s wrong?”
“Bebe, you should go to bed.”
“Huh? So suddenly?”
“Uh… just go. Your mom was sleeping, so I should go to sleep too.”
I guess I’ll have to do some thinking on how to connect my mom and dad.
That’s because he was such a good person… If the Emperor visits, he will protect Mom.
I smiled and looked at the Grand Duke.
“You seem to have something to say to me, Bebe.”
“Ah! There is.”
“There is?”
“Yes! I’m curious. You said you’d change everything in the meeting room, but when you say that, bad people…”
“Are you worried about me?”
A big hand stroked my head softly.
“Well… I’m worried but…”
“There’s nothing to worry about. If anything, if you act too quickly you may look guilty since it might look like you’re quickly trying to hide something.”
“Ah! Then on purpose…”
His blue eyes stared at me. Then he reached out to me.
“If you want to sleep, do you want me to take you to bed?”
“I can go there alone!”
I changed my clothes and hurriedly entered the room.
Then the Grand Duke followed me and entered the room. The terrace and the bed were not far away, so he immediately settled down on the bed and sat down.
Then, he looked at my mother, sleeping like an angel, just like in the books.
“I’ll be heading off.”
“Hey, Dad..”
“Yes?”
“What kind of woman do you like? I’m not saying this with my mom in mind! I’m just curious!”
At those words, the Grand Duke burst out laughing.
“Well.”
“Oh, by the way, I like a strong man who doesn’t lie and can always protect me.”
“Did your mom say that?”
“No! That’s my ideal type!”
His face instantly hardened as he brought a chair in front of the bed and listened/
“Huh?”
“I want someone like that to be my mom’s husband!”
Hmm, I guess I’ll have to ask Mom what kind of person she’d like.
Would she still like someone like my real dad?
“What kind of person is your biological father?”
At that time, I only shook my head from side to side in response to the sudden question. The Grand Duke, who had been silently listening to me, opened his mouth.
“I… well… I never liked someone, just someone who was nice.”
“That feels… um…”
“Anyway, Bebe, I have no intention of marrying anyone again right now because I have many children to take care of.”
“I’m all grown up!”
I pouted my lips and looked at him.
“Anyway… Adelaide is definitely a good person, but I’m not a good person.”
As if he had heard what I thought, I hurriedly waved my hands at his words.
“It’s not like that! Anyway… I’m going to sleep now.”
To avoid this conversation, I sat next to my mom.
“Yes, you should sleep.”
“Yes!”
At that moment, when I tried to say goodbye to him, I felt nervous all over.
“Oh…”
“What’s wrong?”
It was the same feeling as last time; a power that felt familiar yet unfamiliar. I felt it again.
But unlike last time, the power was strangely shaken.
It was like asking for help.
Sweat dripped down my back, and a headache arose, as if someone hit my head with a hammer.
“Bebe? Bebe?”
The Grand Duke shook me, but I couldn’t open my mouth. I wanted to say that something felt weird but words did not come out. In the end, the Grand Duke held my pale, tired face as I froze. I was just being overly sensitive… he was just like my dad.
“I’m fine.”
Just before he left the room, he stopped.
“Bebe…!”
“I’m fine.”
I said I was fine once again in case he didn’t hear me the first time and smiled.
That didn’t calm him down. I opened my eyes and the Grand Duke, who opened the door suddenly despite my talking and movement, raised his voice to the point it rang loudly.
“Come to the clinic right now!”
“Wait, what?”
Surprised, Cecilia rushed with others as she saw me in his arms and paled.
“My Lady! Is there something wrong?”
“I’m fine…”
So stop Daddy. I had to say that, but I couldn’t speak properly. My body didn’t feel like my body. It was as if someone had poisoned my body.
“Oh my gosh… What happened?”
“Suddenly she could not speak and her whole body stiffened. Her face also turned pale.”
Cecilia hurriedly beckoned to the people around her as if she understood.
“Go get some warm water right now. I’ll take care of you. Maybe a hug…”
“No… I don’t…”
“Yes?”
Everyone seemed to be perplexed by the unexpected words of the Grand Duke.
“What should I do? Can I give you a hug?”
“Ah… well, that’s… His Majesty will just keep talking to you…”
Only then did he nod and lay me on the bed.
“I’m really okay…”
In the meantime, the feeling of tightness all over my body slowly dissipated, but the Grand Duke and Cecilia, who sat next to me, were busy looking after me.
“Really… It’s really okay.”
“It’s not okay when I see it as this.”
“Really…”
I laughed at him who still didn’t believe me, but to no avail.
Eventually, the doctor came in even before I could speak. The doctor hurriedly entered the room and began treatment before he calmed down.
A terrible silence came, and only the sound of the doctor treating me filled the room.
The Grand Duke, who seriously watched, opened his mouth at the end.
“What do you think?”
“…”
“I asked how it was. Is there a serious problem?”
“As I am a member of the National Assembly, I cannot tell you exactly what the situation is, but it is not the general situation. My Lady, I heard your body suddenly stiffened. Have you felt that before?”
At that, I let out an ‘ah’ and nodded.
“Well… My back sweated, and I got a strong headache… like someone hit my head with a hammer…”
“Hmm…”
“And…”
I looked at the doctor for a while and waved my hand towards the Grand Duke. Then he bent down and leaned in to listen to me.
“Ah… I felt this again when someone entered the magic room last time. But this time, it was like… it was like asking for help. Am I feeling this because of that?”
The Grand Duke, who was listening to me seriously with a ‘hmm’ sound, stood up and sighed deeply.
“Your Highness, may I ask what’s going on?”
“No. Is the child okay?”
“…I don’t know, but I think the magic in the body interfered. But there’s nothing wrong medically.”
He nodded at the words.
“…Then, what would you do for the child?”
“First of all, unlike how it looks, I can make medicine to replenish physical strength, but it is difficult to give medicine for no apparent reason…”
As if this had happened often, the doctor looked into the Grand Duke’s eyes.
“…Is it not enough? This time again…?”
“No, I think it’s okay this time. Then, I’ll leave and bring the medicine later.”
“Thank you.”
I wasn’t sure what the Grand Duke was doing, but the doctor looked serious.
Afterwards, the doctor quickly erased his serious expression, bowed his head and hurriedly went outside.
“…Dad.”
“Huh? Are you okay, Bebe?”
The Grand Duke, who had hardened his face like an angry man earlier, released his expression.
“Yes, but, are you harassing the doctor?”
“I’m not.”
“It’s suspicious.”
“Anyways… Did you just say that to my ears on purpose?”
“Yeah… I think it’s weird. I’ve neer felt that way before. It was like someone… someone was asking me for help.”
I didn’t know why, but I didn’t know who and I felt a strange feeling and a numbness in my chest.
My head hurt as if I had been beaten.
“…Right.”
“Did I… get weird?”
“No. I just… I think I may have resonated with someone after listening to you.”
“Resonated?”
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
“Love?”
Rather, it was me who was embarrassed by the unexpected words. What do you mean love? You’re already in love?
