Come Here, Tyrant! Chapter 97

Standing in front of the mirror, Annie's eyes widened.

'I'm crazy…'

She hadn't slept at all last night. She didn't know how many times she kicked the blanket.

'Oh my God. Recalling my dark history…'

She held the Emperor at will, kissed him, brushed his teeth, said something funny like brushy-brushy or squeaky-squeaky.

No, more important than that was the other question.

“Why was he wandering around here alone like that?”

The question was not easily resolved. No matter how much she thought about it, she couldn't understand his intentions.

What on Earth could he gain by walking around as a child? There was nothing Annie expected.

She would have expected it if he had a foul taste to surprise people, but now he's not that great at all.

Instead, he tried to avoid people's eyes or try not to cause trouble as much as possible, even here.

'It's driving me crazy. What kind of person is like an onion.'

Annie let out a long sigh.

'Before, he surprised me by asking for out-of-the-box advice, but this time turned into a child…'

The thing that firmly solidified her thoughts was that there was no malice in Ejed. Ejed, who even tried to take responsibility for even the monster, was never a villain.

Annie, who had been struggling, left her bedroom.

“Let's go find out.”

The hallway was somehow longer than usual and felt like a maze.

And after a while.

Standing in front of the room door, Annie took a deep breath.

'Calm down, Annie Mill Dsev. Do it as usual as possible. As usual…'

“My Lady, what are you doing here?”

A passing maid noticed Annie and approached her. Annie smiled awkwardly as the maid greeted her with a welcome look.

'At times like this…'

“Mary, hello. Good morning.”

“Hey. Did you come to see Sir Jade? As expected, you two get along well. You'll see him in the dining room soon anyway.”

The nosy maid began to babble and chatter. Not wanting to cut her words, Annie nodded her head roughly.

“Uh-huh. That's right, well.”

“Sir Jade… He must have woken up.”

'I know. So, just be quiet…'

She longed for it in her heart, but the maid did what she wasn't even told to do.

Knock. Knock.

“Sir Jade, are you awake? Lady Annie is here.”

At that moment, the door opened. A young Ejed could be seen through them, smiling faintly.

As soon as she saw him, Annie blamed herself.

'It's the same.”

Not going to lie; Ejed was just Jade.

'It's stupid. Why haven't I recognized him for so long? It was just him!'

How could she be like this without a clue? She prided herself on having a good sense of business, but she was pathetic.

Meanwhile, Ejed spoke in a calm tone today.

“Good morning, Annie. Would you like to come in?”

“Yes, yes. I will.”

Creak.

Ejed greeted the maid and closed the door.

Clack.

The sound was deafening.

Ehed sat down on the small sofa, and Annie sat across from him. Annie smiled awkwardly, forcing the stiff corners of her lips.

Somehow, she was more nervous than usual.

'Usually… usually. Oh, what did I usually talk about?'

“Sir Jade, did you sleep…”

“Yesterday.”

The two talked almost at the same time.

Ejed blinked his eyes as if to let her speak first, and Annie shook her head.

“No. Please tell me first. If you have anything you want to say, you can say it.”

The word 'yesterday' had a strange feeling.

Annie couldn't hide her anxiety.

'No way… You were awake yesterday, and you pretended not to know… or not.'

If it's Ejed's gentle personality, there's no way that's not going to happen.

'Ah, please… He wouldn't. He probably wouldn't.'

Annie's face turned pale as she spread her imagination. If he pretended he was sleeping, she was a sinner who touched the Emperor's body.

No, she was embarrassed to the point that it was difficult for her to lift her face more than that.

'Even if I haven't seen that… I held and kissed him.”

“Annie, yesterday…”

“I didn't see anything!”

“Huh? What do you mean?”

“…No. Just keep talking.”

“Oh, yes. I was tired in the carriage yesterday, so I fell asleep… I think someone brought me to my room… I was wondering about that person. Was it you, Annie?”

He was probably just trying to show his gratitude.

Annie responded calmly to Ejed, who asked what happened.

“Yes. I brought you to the bedroom. Your Ma… You made my body hurt a little bit. But Sir Jade is not that heavy.”

“Your body hurts? Have you been to the doctor?”

She was so embarrassed that the nonsense came out without going through her brain.

Annie shook her head towards Ejed, who responded kindly to her gibberish.

“No. I'm fine now.”

“Isn't it too much because I'm too heavy?”

“Oh, that's not it.”

“Still, your body hurts. Be sure to visit the doctor's office later. Or even with holy water…”

'Holy water…'

Annie's lips parted slightly. Come to think of it, didn't she experience a strange thing at Porcaus Falls?
