Chapter Index

    Wednesday evening time.

    Originally, I was going to meet Ellis and have dinner, but she said I had dinner plans with my family, so I decided to have dinner with the girls at the dorm.

    I was eating takeout from a restaurant recommended by Scarlett, and since I’m from France, I knew the restaurant well.

    I laughed as I watched Liliana greedily eating the food because of how delicious it was.

    “Take your time, Liliana.”

    “It’s the last French food, so eat a lot!”

    Om-nyom-nyom-nyom.

    Liliana stuffed the baguette into her mouth and picked up the chicken with her free hand.

    How is it that I binge eat every time I see it, but still maintain that body?

    That’s the biggest mystery.

    “Liliana. You can eat it tomorrow morning, so don’t overdo it.”

    “Ah. I see!”

    “It’s nice because the atmosphere here is always bright. Are all the girlfriends of baby daddies like this?”

    “… Everyone has strong characteristics.”

    I picked up the bread and ate it in the middle of the noisy table.

    It’s better to talk a lot than to be quiet.

    I especially liked how Liliana created the atmosphere.

    It seems like I’ve become closer to the girls now.

    ‘What is Alice doing?’

    You said you were eating with your family. Are you eating with Irene?

    Maybe Isaac wants to eat it too.

    I hope my story doesn’t come out and cause trouble.

    That guy is still scary.

    “If you’re not going to eat it, can I eat the bread?”

    “Okay. Eat a lot.”

    After pushing my plate to Liliana, I stood up.

    Now that the time has come, I guess I should get ready to meet Ellis.

    “I have to get ready to leave quickly. I’ll get up first.”

    “Ugh. Come back.”

    “Bye.”

    “My baby’s dad is always busy.”

    “I’ll be right back.”

    I left the women eating alone and got up from the table first.

    I felt a little sorry at first, but seeing that everyone else didn’t care, I guess I was the only one being polite.

    The time is 7:30.

    I’m planning to meet with Ellis at 8 o’clock, so I’ll have to get ready soon.

    “It’s annoying to wash….”

    Of course, you can’t avoid washing even if it’s a hassle.

    How much your pride would be hurt if you smelled something there.

    I stretched and went into the bathroom.

    *

    Ho-yeon Lee finished the meal quickly because of an appointment, so naturally the remaining three people were still eating.

    Liliana frowned as she put a pretty-shaped egg in her mouth.

    “Hmm. French fried eggs don’t taste good.”

    “It’s probably because your liver is weak. Try eating it with bacon.”

    “Aha. I see. The bacon was really salty.”

    “Rebecca. Would you like some coffee?”

    “Thank you for giving it to me, Miss Scarlett.”

    At first, it was awkward without Lee Ho-yeon, but now the women have become accustomed to each other.

    They became close enough to chat even without Ho-yeon Lee.

    “Miss Scarlett has a talent for making coffee. The secretary I had before was not good at this.”

    “When I was the youngest member of the Iris Guild, I once drank 100 glasses a day.”

    Rebecca finished her meal by drinking the coffee Scarlett brought her.

    When Liliana was disposing of the leftover food.

    Scarlett spoke to Rebecca, who was sipping coffee.

    “Now that I think about it, Rebecca said her goal was to restore the clan. Since Rebecca is the only remaining clan, they are targeting the talented Hoyeon.”

    “Hmm. It’s a long story, but to sum it up, it’s okay. But Miss Scarlett, aren’t you the same age as me? You can talk comfortably.”

    “I’m already used to using polite language. I’ll try to speak informally. …But what does it mean to call me Miss Scarlett while saying something like that?”

    “Miss Scarlett is senior to me, so I treat her well.”

    “….”

    But why are you speaking informally to Liliana? Scarlett wanted to ask, but it didn’t seem like she would get a particularly nutritious answer if she did, so she swallowed her words.

    I already knew that Rebecca was a free spirit.

    “Now that I think about it, the relationship between the baby’s father and his girlfriend is quite unique.”

    “… Yes.”

    Even in Scarlett’s opinion, it wasn’t a normal relationship.

    How many women are there for one man?

    Even all of them are incredibly beautiful.

    Why are these beautiful women, who would have turned the country upside down if they were born a few thousand years ago, clinging to that one man? That was a question he himself had.

    “There are many women, but the people are good!”

    “That’s right. One of his charms is that he looks like a bad guy but is kind. He’s also handsome.”

    Liliana, who was eating diligently, added a word.

    Scarlett also agreed and added a word.

    Perhaps, if Lee Ho-yeon had been born during the time when the queen was there, she would have become the queen’s mistress and ruined the country.

    Scarlett had never seen such a handsome man before.

    ‘It’s quite possible.’

    It may be possible if it were someone else, but if it’s his affair, it’s entirely possible.

    It must have driven the queen crazy.

    Scarlett continued her serious thoughts and smiled softly.

    Meanwhile, Rebecca was also worried as she looked at Scarlett and Liliana.

    “That’s not what I was talking about… Anyway, it’s okay if everyone is okay with it.”

    The women of the clan he saw and Lee Ho-yeon’s female friends seemed to have very different mindsets.

    Perhaps it’s the difference between Rune’s clan and other people.

    Even though she knew that, Rebecca didn’t understand.

    ‘Does it make sense to rebel against my husband’s mindset?’

    If you have sex, you are my husband from then on.

    If a man says he wants to date a woman, he goes out with her.

    Why are there complaints?

    Rebecca tilted her head and brought the coffee to her mouth.

    *

    “are you okay?”

    “… Mom knows you’re not hurt.”

    “Is that so? I’m glad.”

    Ellis kept his mouth shut as he looked at his mother, Sophia, smiling mischievously.

    That person is also a problem.

    You know that your father and sister are making a fuss, but you don’t stop them.

    He seemed to find it amusing to see his daughter suffering so much.

    “Elise, what are you talking about? You were clearly injured. You clearly saw that you were bleeding.”

    “… It’s just a little scratch.”

    “How dangerous is a slight scratch? The infection starts from that small wound….”

    “….”

    Ellis looked at Irene, who had started preaching again, and lowered her head to take a bite of the bread.

    Now, Irene’s presence is not as uncomfortable as it used to be.

    I still remember being bullied, but perhaps my older sister has grown up like me and has become like a comfortable family member to me.

    Actually, since we were family to begin with, I guess we can say things have returned to normal.

    “Elise. Are you listening to me?”

    “Yes. I’m listening.”

    “Irene, stop teasing Ellis and focus on your meal.”

    “…I’m not kidding.”

    Yum.

    Irene had no choice but to continue eating again.

    There are many things I haven’t said yet, but I can’t disobey my mother’s words.

    The sound of a meal echoed quietly in the room.

    Even though my father wasn’t there, it felt good to be a family that had been together for the first time in a long time.

    It was especially nice to have a younger sibling.

    Cute and beautiful Alice.

    Her younger brother, who seemed to have poured himself out, was the only person who could satisfy Irene.

    ‘… .’

    But these days, Irene was feeling strange.

    Ellis was still pretty.

    When I see it, my heart starts pounding and I feel like I want to do anything.

    I want to see more different facial expressions, and I’m so happy that if you smile even when you’re worried, it feels like you’re flying.

    the problem is… The point is that it has become weaker.

    I obviously loved Ellis enough to give my all, but now I feel like that fiery feeling has disappeared.

    I’m not sure what the cause is.

    However, due to timing, it was a few days after Ellis returned to France… .

    ‘… Lee Ho-yeon?’

    Doridori.

    Irene shook her head.

    Could it be because of that man?

    The man who not only tried to take Ellis away from him but also took her first experience by force was the worst man she had ever seen.

    Of course, I admit he was handsome, but it wasn’t even comparable to Ellis.

    “So, Ellis. How are you and Hoenn?”

    “… Why did you suddenly say Hoyeon’s name?”

    “….”

    Irene stopped eating while listening to the conversation between her mother and Ellis.

    Why did his name come up all of a sudden?

    “We had a consultation last time. Oh, by any chance Irene doesn’t know?”

    “Mom! Haa….”

    “What counseling? Did Ellis provide counseling?”

    Irene spoke faster without realizing it.

    Consulting about Lee Ho-yeon, what does that mean?

    “I supported Alice because she seemed to be having trouble with men, but it doesn’t seem like anything has changed, right?”

    “…I’m trying.”

    “Always be confident, Ellis.”

    “I was wondering why my dad wasn’t there….”

    “If your dad hears something like this, he’ll be in big trouble. Hehe.”

    Ellis nodded.

    For some reason, I thought I couldn’t see my dad, who doesn’t always fall into situations like this, so I guess he deliberately didn’t call me to talk about this.

    “…Mother. Wouldn’t it be too early for a man for Ellis?”

    “You’re too late, Irene.”

    “….”

    Ellis listened to their conversation and slowly continued to worry about Lee Ho-yeon.

    How can I make that trash my own?

    Would it be possible to have a deeper relationship if we overlapped and confessed right away?

    I wanted to beat all the other women, but it wasn’t easy.

    ‘Confidently… ha.’

    Of course, there is no way that an answer that has not been found so far can be found by thinking about it for a while.

    Ellis sighed lightly and focused on eating again.

    That’s why I couldn’t see Irene biting her lip slightly.

    *

    “Is today the last day?”

    On the way to meet Ellis.

    I walked away, thinking about random things.

    How can I maintain a good relationship with Ellis?

    It’s something I always worry about, but building a relationship with a woman was very difficult.

    It is true that a woman’s heart is like a reed.

    Because women are like bombs that can explode at any moment.

    ‘I tried to build up my affection, but…’

    The so-called rice cake.

    Just as there are people who don’t like people but are looking for a lover who broke up with them because they couldn’t forget that person’s sex, compatibility is a very important issue.

    Of course, the level of difficulty is higher because I have to increase my favorability in that situation.

    Fortunately, Ellis’s heart was almost opened.

    If you induce sex naturally, she will act like she can’t resist and give you permission.

    The only thing that bothers me is that she pretends that other women can’t win, too.

    Ellis is the type of person who dislikes relationships where she is not the center.

    – Me: Ellis. Arrived now.

    When I arrived at the accommodation, I stopped worrying and sent a message to Ellis.

    – Ellis: You can come in now. I’ll leave the door open.

    Sigh-

    I opened the door to my dorm in a familiar manner.

    If we don’t see an end today, we will have to continue this ambiguous relationship in Korea as well.

    ‘I want to make sure I finish it this time.’

    I entered the dormitory, seeing Ellis waiting for me at the entrance.
