Chapter 18 18 (1/2)

Since he just woke up, his hair was spread more naturally than before, and the clothes he was wearing was slightly open revealing his well-built body.

Oops, embarrassing. This is embarrassing. Hey, I'm a grow-up lady even though my body is a little kid's!

Claude didn't notice what I was thinking and turned his gaze out the window on his left. The sun was already setting down, leaving an orange yellow sky visible.

He slowly stood up to stretch like a psycho does.

”We are having the feast here.”

* * *

”You look like you were doing fine these days as you look bright and healthy.”

It was my first time facing Claude this straightforward after the time on the boat.

I was examining the dishes on the table in the emperor's bedroom. Each of dish looked very yummy, but it still had some very informal food to eat for the emperor.

I was just thinking it was very unusual, but lifted my head right away when he said the weirdest thing he could ever say right now.

There was no way he was not informed of my health, but he never once came to visit me. Well, I mean it would definitely worsen my cold if he did come!

Anyways, I was speechless to this dude who didn't even come to visit his sick daughter and just say 'Oh, you look fine'.

I didn't even expect a lot, not even warm words like 'I heard you were very sick, are you okay?' or 'You look tired. Rest well.' but isn't this a little too much? Yeah right. This is Claude I'm talking about.

”Papa also looks pwetty!”

But I'm just a good old weak sunfish. Let's not forget. It's plan C, plan C. Even if it's for plan B, it is important to extend my life span this way! There is NOTHING more important than life even though it is dirty and unfair!

I ignored Claude and smiled brightly. His eyes showed interest at this. Yes, yes, is it interesting to see a girl who was sick by yesterday because she fell in the lake to be smiling oh-so-brightly?

Claude was just staring at me with from across with his chin set on his hand. But why do you look like you are trying to look handsome? (This is Atti's misunderstanding. Claude definitely is not trying to look handsome.) Are you trying to make me fall for you? Ha, yeah! What a talent! Imma not fall for you, bast*rd!

”Listen. I have only prepared foods you like.”

So, this is meat? You'r making fun of me cuz I'm chubby, right? You are humiliating me, right?

”Thank you for the fooooooood.”

But it was not me if I didn't eat. I decided to ignore Claude's gaze and focus on eating.

Woah, it's melting in my mouth! You eat this kind of food every day? There were expensive dishes in my palace too, but the quality and taste are incomparable! This is a difference!

The silverwares were too heavy for me to grasp. Also, the steak was not pre-sliced so I had to slice them myself. Furthermore, this table is too tall!

Clank! And my silverware ended up making this horrible sound of this plate and silverware scratching each other.

Gasp. I held my breath that moment. Forget the embarrassment, Claude's reactions are more important. H-he's not gonna be mad by this, is he? He isn't gonna throw his knife right at me, is he?

”You should work on your education more.”

But Claude didn't say a word and ignored. Hahhh, I'm alive.

”I will send a person over to your palace tomorrow. You are very uneducated than I expected probably because no really educated people had taught you.”
