I Became The Childhood Friend of the Obsessive Second Male Lead Chapter 263

unedited

However, when Noel tried to imitate his older brother, it didn't seem to have much effect.

Rieta replied with a frightened face.

“You can't say it's not here, as I'm still hearing strange noises.”

“……You are really obliged to read five romance novels a day from now on. I really can't say anything.”

“No, because I can actually… hear it.”

What kind of stupid thing is this?

Noel let out a deep sigh, wrapped his arms around Rieta's head, and gave her a hug.

With the intention of completely blocking the eyes as well as the ears of the restless foolish princess.

Rieta flinched near his shoulder, and she soon gave up and quietly leaned back.

'What.'

Noel was taken aback for a moment.

It was a little strange that she was taken aback when he hugged her first, but he did it sincerely anyway.

It feels… … too good

Even Rieta's weight, which he always complained about.

The scent of her hair, which he once admired alone.

And even the rustling sound that still rang through the wide hall was nice.

Every time that sound came, it seems like Rieta digs into him a little more.

'……What is it?”

After getting used to the good mood to some extent, this time a dark worry came.

A worry about Rieta.

Judging by the fact that she had taken two black men into the dark cabinet yesterday, it was clear that Rieta had a loose boundary on that part.

So even when Noel hugged her like this, she stayed calm.

He tried putting the other guys in his place one by one.

Cheeky guys like Hugh McLean and Elisha Maureen. All of them have polite faces.

However, Noel was not fooled by such appearances.

Those kinds of guys were scary guys who he couldn't tell what was going on in their hearts.

“You.”

Noel opened his mouth cautiously, then paused for a moment.

He remembered that his arm was blocking Rieta's ears.

He lowered his arm slightly.

He wondered if it would be okay to continue to hold her like this, but he didn't particularly like her being far away, so he gently pulled her around the waist and hugged her.

He was encouraged by the thought that no one was watching anyway.

“You really shouldn't hug anyone like this. Understand?”

He ordered attention with a very stern face.

“Especially not Hugh McLean. He secretly revealed it to me.”

Noel falsely accused his close friend of 'secretly revealing'.

Because he thought it was better for Rieta to be close to him.

On the other hand, Rieta thought of the 'original story' for a while with the words 'McLean reveals'.

Since he is the male lead, it could be said that knowing how to be greedy for someone in moderation is a virtue.

Rather, if he's not too interested, it's no fun.

So Rieta nodded and agreed with Noel's story.

“Well, it's kind of like that.”

“……what?!”

Noel exclaimed in surprise.

“Did he dare to do anything to the princess?!”

If not, how could Rieta be able to nod her head at the word that he revealed it?

“It can't be. As I said before, Hugh McLean wouldn't do that to me.”

Noel still looked suspicious, and Rieta laughed again, replying, 'Really.'

He lowered his head a little and bumped his forehead against Rieta.

Bump, it hurts a bit as it made a sound.

“You are really worrying people.”

“I want Noel to start worrying about my forehead.”

“My forehead hurts too?!”

Despite asking such harsh questions, Noel's embrace was warm, and his eyes were full of concern.

Seeing that, Rieta somehow thought of Darrell.

Then she realized that Noel had intended to imitate Darrell and comfort her.

It seems like it's too late.

“Thank you, Noel.”

Rieta released her hand from his collar, and she gave him a full hug.

Like what Rieta, who came out of fear, would do to Darrell.

Then, Darrell would always give a warm pat on the back, saying, “I'm glad it helped the princess too.”

But Noel thought it was strange that Rieta hugged him, and he suddenly stiffened.

“…..Uh.”

Given Noel's reaction, Rieta felt somewhat awkward.

She quickly released her arms that were holding him, and took a step back.

Why did she feel embarrassed?

It was something she did casually with Darrell.

In the first place, she had done this kind of thing with Noel, but…….

That was until he went to the academy.

Did the two of them change while living apart?

In a strange atmosphere, they can't even look into each other's eyes.

'That sound', which can be said to be the root of all these problems, was heard again.

Perhaps it was because the shame had passed so intensely that she was not afraid anymore.
