At Parvenon where she stayed, Christian really gave Hilise everything she needed.1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZl7USQc6rM
1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsplh2NL5rW
All of the beautiful, warm, and affectionate things in the world she had ever experienced for the first time were from Christian.1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHHVaprVl2U
1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUT5E1BcM9M
She was happy enough to tear up.1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqwvizses4G
1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAOoIYvghD1
But when she suddenly thought of Inoaden, she felt anxious.1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpeDMDJYzol
1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6K5VtZVepG
She believed Christian's words that he had obtained her father's permission, but she was still uncomfortable because it was the first time she has been away from the mansion for such a long time.1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡedmkOnnZyy
1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyNKdvmrwIP
So she hesitated and said that she would stop and return to Inoaden.1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOnI1ApYRkl
1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuwBa8xPB5r
But Christian, contrary to his promise, did not let Hilise out of the Parvenon.1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFU053rrYEU
1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrARJIH1sH3
In fact, she did not know until very later, that he was lying when he said he had obtained Diego's permission.1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEvNyYsQQkp
1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyM3AAFeGae
Naturally, in Inoaden, he somehow tried to bring Hilise back.1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCzu7k55gvG
1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIu4c7fWgcB
He had no choice , because without Hilise, he couldn't put Ricardo to be his successor.1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaJiwzu5z4V
1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyASM0fRJUJ
However, they did not reveal that Hilise had an awakening, and that was rather the cause for the Parvenon to keep Hilise.1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoX71BSyel6
1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQjL9rPlhqX
They offered to speak directly with Hilise, but that was dismissed by Cristian.1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQHZKsLXkv0
1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOAuiVXwqRV
In the process, friction arose between the two families.1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMSsrnUcC7s
1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡORoJ97MC45
Christian didn't tell the anxious Hilise anything, he just said she didn't need to worry.1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8wNKZsaXkm
1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfy6vEOFGY2
Then he hid her deeper in his arms. Hilise followed him and closed her eyes and closed her ears. It was like an escape in a sense.1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkre64mvoTt
1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz5xfcMOMJh
For the first time in her life, Hilise was drunk with the comfort she felt and relied more and more on Christian.1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7avZtqrqKl
1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFYdEKm5K4S
It was nice to say that she really devoted her blind affection, as she did with her family.1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTcTsQ2K8GV
1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeQPaetoW9B
So some time has passed. It wasn't just a separate ceremony, but by that time Christian and Hilise were almost married.1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOhzdzTe8Db
1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx3CLa2AuOR
From that time on, Christian's gaze toward Hilise began to become annoyed little by little.1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMadVcjjafN
1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuBk2ogNsVb
The more she did, the more she looked at Christian's glance, and she acted more cautiously not to go against him, and Christian looked at her as if he was bored with her.1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyRodgOEz8V
1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1mEgphTBDT
Then one fall night. Hilise couldn't sleep, so she left the room with a gown over her pajamas.1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHgTjDnC2pQ
1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvPRBuqjRF7
As her relationship with Christian wasn't the same for the first time, she began to suffer from insomnia. So, on nights where she couldn't fall asleep so easily, she often went for walks alone.1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtA8MNsOhfQ
1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU0j0Bty3zA
She was so like usual she walked through a quiet hallway and passed through a room that was lit up.1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHQ5aGqDkhN
1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSUR94FZzD1
"I can't do this, in a sense, she's more stupid than Gabriel."1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy3vKrdFTf4
1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqzvDNP7P5c
The familiar voice of her heard from within it, and her steps stopped by itself.1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjMsl9Q5Qoz
1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3wBkE2CgDq
As I glanced through the door where the lights were leaking, I saw Christian sitting with a glass in his hand.1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIbc5iLtbQQ
1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ78WtGlbjyD
"Well, it wouldn't change people just because they suddenly had an illusion that they didn't have. Still, I didn't know it would be annoying to this extent."1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡneVs0YMWSu
1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0fji9MiAQw
"Isn't she pitiful? She's blinded and devoted to Christian like that. Even if it's annoying, be kind to her."1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTvblEEukfe
1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQzFsNJG2yX
"Even if you don't have the patience, you're giving them all kindly."1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ7BxUpEvx4
1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXpISo18zhj
The sound of adding that I am not a philanthropist(?) struck my heart like a thorn.1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwwxlPVH9KZ
1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFyf3kJA2qI
Christian had a cold face that Hilise saw for the first time. Subsequently, his voice was so cold and cold that her heart was completely sinking.1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcJXN0U3IRh
1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1DZKnVAhb3
"If I have a child who has inherited the powers of both sides, we will be able to finish this stupid play early without dragging the sound. These days, whenever I see her face, I'm sick of it, and I want to get rid of it all."1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLRiKTZ2Ahy
1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDYmrOlWuua
Hilise stepped back without knowing it.1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKdeVMY29Na
1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGzqrIUxQCV
**Clank!1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6qC3Z3AkBH
1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1w1vP5vVtH
Then, the gown she was wearing fell to the floor.1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfhAeXGbD0Y
1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1fDbUM4CyD
Even that rang out loud in her quiet hallway. Hilise ran away without knowing what she was trying to get away from.1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWmbGnyOLkx
1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGSF32c4cGz
She then folded her feet and fell.1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbxPk5n3Z3V
1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6RSdrGXb2U
As she looked down her trembling hands because she couldn't get up right away because her strength left her legs, she was heavily breathing and her heart went up and down steeply.1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdVVMELRfj6
1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzDzFxBfgHX
"Hilise?"1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdsERW0FeQn
1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeyeWPCILxG
Such a soft voice flew from behind her back. As she turned her head, she saw Christian standing a few steps away.1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ18BTtGZyhp
1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW9ShUY3UlN
He stood looking down at her sitting on her floor, holding her head slightly tilted to her side, dressed as lightly as Hilise.1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXcUhjws43S
1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPuhlXxmQl2
Christian's hand held a gown that Hilise had dropped off a while ago.1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNPZQPAMKKd
1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDNJeAXnWXl
Hilise stared up at him, half obscured by her darkness, and held her breath in her silence.1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNZd98prFPE
1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡskQ4rH9DZM
Soon, Christian moved from a standstill and approached Hilise.1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjyUbHMnACE
1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9NYccCYwkQ
"I couldn't sleep again today, it looks like a book I brought alone fall out."1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYlMGG9q3RG
1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡalxb6njgFV
Sitting on one knee on the floor, his hand was still tender, giving Hilise a robe over her shoulder.1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3fwtYHMrul
1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQi7wgUf2GB
"You have to wear warm clothes. What if you catch a cold?"1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYcEy0P1bP7
1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvndY5xbcq9
The voice in my ears and the face in my eyes were just as gentle as a lamb.1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡagUApriI8F
1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzRF1YkZ3Rw
(Could it be that I heard it wrong a little while ago?)1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCck6gkjhuA
1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmAm1DMYqt6
Or maybe the person in the room wasn't Christian, but someone else who looked like him.1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgaH8JBhqeU
1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2NOXOLLu8q
Indeed. Even now, the person who touches her with such a gentle touch could never have said the same thing before.1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDxEEVmnj1A
1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGeTC89iVST
However, even though she thought so, Hilise' eyes were shaking without aim.1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD6WcC6CUkt
1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡah9utQqp1Q
"By the way..."1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfZwFbeorhb
1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Y5T4tDKCO
Her Christian, who looked at her up close to her, noticed her agitation so easily.1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU6luIiHMR8
1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0RWrUjYGeY
"Why are you dropping like this?"1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvdaRYCpWfV
1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBFazboMyut
As the cold hand holding her gown touched the nape of her neck, Hilise flinched and trembled.1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxCtUAVnVQP
1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡosW9m3hKlx
"Ah, is that so?"1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA1D80sPxAv
1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxUs0kmg0R1
Christian, who saw it, murmured like a self-talk by extending the end of the speech a little slowly, as if he knew soon.1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdEvZ2nIz4u
1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7KGehpGPU9
And she then heard his voice digging through her eardrum, and Hilise felt her heart pounding.1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSRzE6dFU3v
1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRmMjpfmaLa
"You heard it all."1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU2VVUFSqqM
1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW3pkrMNnYO
A confident, delicate smile rose in front of my eyes.1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxDhbeBqZO4
1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnsirHl7Dh0
On the other hand, Hilise shook her head in a hurry, seeing the warm red eyes like a piece of ice.1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOO4gX0mfp0
1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ26JPNLWL7N
"N, no. I didn't hear anything. I really heard nothingㆍㆍㆍ."1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkMyNqEXjni
1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAEJm7NWm0u
Christian only watched her Hilise for a while.1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvRf7dBAWlL
1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnLcuREFvlg
Then soon she quietly cried.1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡihCfiivQBi
1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWcuBTuORgf
"I don't want to blame you, so you don't have to be so scared. Actually, the door was deliberately opened."1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRQ7DJp3UGg
1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6hkmZ2Nj5U
At that moment, she shut her mouth, feeling her heart falling once again.1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlo2b89Ct9U
1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLHbrEetBPN
She said she left the door open on purpose in the first place.1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQjMwdoiRan
1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj41jNphhFv
(Why would you do that?)1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjTJ0A24yd1
1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8oXd2AKS6E
(No way he intentionally trying to tell me?)1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXGPpcRRSzv
1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrOJ2cZAOQf
(Why?)1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvnvEZlyxrP
1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ19F0AwUX1S
"It wouldn't have been so silly if you had been upset right now or hit me on the cheek."1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGFxqNmsdRM
1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqx9F7Kr62m
There was no emotion in the voice flowing in my ears.1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKOkghl6wcM
1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeaYj9PPoiQ
Christian's face, with his smile completely removed, looked terribly unexpressed.1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡet8e4rPimW
1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT3R7fPQ48w
"Hilise."1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTlFEf05pIp
1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfdBW3UxTyG
In that state he whispered to Hilise.1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFBUnzOImlj
1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJg7Nq5YBNF
"I knew, but you're really pathetic."1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjcFsrc91JU
1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDzhiiqdtLg
With lips that always whispered sweet words to her, this time it tore her heart without hesitation.1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcNtjr7ZuAn
1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXStMlJbUKA
"And I'm stupid. Well, since I'm so stupid, I don't know what's true and what's lying, and I'm going to grab my hand back then."1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbN0uLBgitK
1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡekSW1lu9Ip
Her enlightenment was only a moment.1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgixDw7vhPN
1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEe2OVoxrZV
Tears from her eyes ran down her pale cheeks.1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡItTMV3ZdOI
1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Sb0CtOqcb
Still a gentle touch slowly swept over it.1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡejZ4x6yOta
1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM4aOglZaqp
"Do not cry."1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOxpO7FuWqQ
1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv7FMXS3tk6
Unless she was an idiot, she had no choice but to notice.1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxmptmNzA17
1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1FRClyjL6y
"I'm really annoyed whenever you cry like that."1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ61zEP0pPr3
1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡujPtqmF6VQ
The fact that this is what you see now is the truth that Christian brought out in front of her for the first time.1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS1fK9HLtYs
1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFKXm63afa5
"Poor Hilise Inoaden."1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeJaVi6OHO9
1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfRJ2ZuqL0I
As Christian watched her crying Hilise, he once again added the sweet smile she loved so much to his beautiful face.1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC8KWKshjHL
1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzOXA0E7tma
Then he whispered brutally.1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡugh502dR83
1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEzLsOuxyk4
"But you still love me."1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRMesyQuX96
1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpX4ha09z8s
It was just as he said.1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPNEVM0Q7uF
1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpeXObdLjoq
Hilise still loved Christian, and she couldn't even imagine letting go of his hand.1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb0HhmWdRI2
1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj1enpKFf8h
"Stupid woman."1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEcR3oOiw6j
1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB8UMFNoFvD
Christian bowed her head a little closer to her, wrapping her tears-dropping cheeks on Hilise cheeks.1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvzVIqLbrzk
1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeGnfZw1X1S
"So you can only have my empty shell."1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaNDNKzNur1
1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsBFVTkPye5
A chilly ridicule spread over the lips that touched.1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1GVWxsJGNS
1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0bTmOaM6Zg
Unlike the soft touch, it was a cold kiss that felt cold to the inside.1192Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc0rgP1hRTq
