Chapter 85
TN: Thank Nepper for the chapter.
“Shouldn’t I say, ‘Who do you think you are to interfere...!'”
Pamela said, waiting for me leaning against the door as I came out after meeting with Marquis Degrosis.
I smiled bitterly at Pamela’s words and shrugged as I began to walk.
Pamela also slowly followed behind me, seeming to know that the reason Marquis Degrosis called her to the mansion was not to talk with her.
She and I walked without a word. Until we left the Degrosis estate.
Click.
I silently got into the carriage and looked at Pamela while taking a long breath.
She looked at me with a small sigh as if I were telling her to speak now if she had anything to say.
“What, do I have to say something?”
“I thought you’d surely complain...”
Even if not, she might say, “Who do you think you are to interfere?” or “Who are you to mortgage my life?”
After all, Pamela’s dream was to be free from the Degrosis.
At the same time, it was to bring down the family.
“Just what do you take me for...?”
“An eccentric noble lady?”
“Do you really want to die?”
After teasing Pamela and lightening the mood a bit, I took another deep breath and slightly bowed my head.
“I’m sorry for acting on my own.”
Even if everything were for her sake, it wouldn’t be pleasant for things to happen without the consent of the person involved.
This would be especially true for Pamela, who had moved according to Marquis Degrosis’ will all her life. Therefore, I had no choice but to offer an honest and clean apology.
Thinking about the conflict that arose from not telling Helena in time, I had no choice.
So, it was better to clear up any misunderstandings right away.
“...What are you saying? You did that for me, didn’t you?”
Of course, if there was something I had misjudged, it was that Pamela was surprisingly clever.
“I think you just had a very rude thought...”
And she’s quick-witted.
Seeing Pamela narrow her eyes and look at me as if she had read my thoughts, I hurriedly shook my head and nodded again.
“...What are you doing?”
“The latter part is wrong, but the former is right.”@@@@
“Are you really an idiot?”
I smiled awkwardly at Pamela’s question.
I never dreamed she could read my inner thoughts.
Pamela, looking at me incredulously, shook her head and continued speaking.
“Anyway, you acted that way for my sake, right? I didn’t even think you’d be interested in me in the first place.”
“...Hmm.”
Somehow, Pamela’s words sounded sad to me, and I found myself smiling and saying softly,
“I’m not uninterested.”
Though not romantic interest.
Swallowing the latter part, I spoke softly.
“...You, you, you lecher!!”
‘What am I thinking?!’
Pamela couldn’t help but blink her big eyes in surprise without even realizing it.
If someone could read her thoughts, they might think she was a girl in love, wouldn’t they?
Laughing hollowly at the absurdity, Pamela closed her eyes and opened them again to calm her strangely wavering heart.
“...Eek!!”
“Are you okay? Are you sick somewhere?”
Pamela couldn’t help but be startled when she opened her eyes to see Felix looking at her with concern right in front of her.
The wavy, glossy red hair.
The deep, serious black eyes filled with concern.
The contrasting white skin without a single blemish.
The straight nose bridge and the sharp jawline befitting a man.
Everything entered Pamela’s eyes.
Thump thump thump.
Her heartbeat was intense.
She thought she felt comfortable around him, but that wasn’t it. Her heart was beating so fast that her chest hurt.
“I’m, I’m fine...!! It’s nothing!! Yeah!!”
Pamela hurriedly pushed Felix’s face away and shouted loudly, turning her face away so he couldn’t see and biting her lower lip.
Was it the suspension bridge effect?
Was she wavering so easily because her situation was too tragic? Or was it possible that she really...
...liked him?
‘That’s nonsense.’
Pamela had met many more handsome people, from better families, and kinder than Felix.
She hadn’t wavered for them. It wasn’t normal to feel this way about him now.
‘Did the head of the family do something?!’
She naturally thought of Marquis Degrosis at this inexplicable phenomenon, but there was no way he could control her emotions.
He would have used it long ago if such a thing were possible. Then what on earth was this?
It was too ridiculous to think that she was feeling this way because of that one sentence just now.
It was just.
She had merely recalled the things he had done for her until now.
She had merely recalled the things he had done for others.
The moment she recalled this fact, Pamela couldn’t help but grab her throbbing head.
At the same time, she had to admit it.
Felix von Astria was.
A good man.
He was too good a man for a doll like her.
He was kind and would help someone like her even without knowing her.
He was affectionate and always appeared to take care of her when her emotions wavered, even while pretending not to care.
Like a teenage girl, Pamela secretly clutched her rapidly beating heart and had to squeeze her eyes shut.
They say love comes suddenly at some point.
They say it comes suddenly and shakes a person violently.
‘...But this is too sudden!!!’
Pamela was about to go crazy and jump around.
