Chapter 79



“It’s really okay for you not to mind me here and just continue with your talk.”

“I can’t believe that you—who possessed a normal set of eyes—could just fall at a place where I never did. What a marvelous sight.”

“I know, right?”

Knox sighed once again at the physician’s cheery behavior that was even more than usual.

It seemed like today wasn’t the day after all. He raised his hand over her faintly visible red hair.

“There’s nothing we can do after all. Can you tell me this story next time?”

His gentle caress through her hair eventually made her nod.

“Yes, I will.”

In fact, Vivian could actually feel how relieved she was at this moment. She smiled, grateful for the fact that she could put off the awkward situation aside. She wanted to avoid everything that she was facing currently and prepare for the worst later.

“By the way, aren’t you guys hungry?”

It was none other than the physician who suddenly butted in between the intimate couple.

“No. We ate lunch quite late, so we’re really……”

“You had lunch already? Without me?”

“You can just eat at your own place, can’t you?”

Right upon Knox’s blunt words, the physician immediately let out an exaggerated expression.

“I have no idea where all the food is. I’m so hungry that I had even searched through the cupboard, but there wasn’t even a single grain of dust to be found.”

“Can’t you ask the maids, then?”

“How do you even reach out to people who lurk around like shadows? When I was only about to approach them for a talk, they just ran away.”

Knox’s expression had furrowed even further by the physician’s incessant response.

“So, what do you want me to do now?”

“You should take responsibility since you’re the one who brought me here.”

It wasn’t even an exaggeration to say that this was far beyond the idea of being brazen. The physician, who then stood up while slightly laughing, eventually approached them with a bright smile on his face.

“I’m famished. I need some food.”

“Dinner time is just around the corner, so would you like to have dinner with us, then?”

“Alexia.”

In the end, it was Vivian who had to mediate in between just before Knox could get angry.

She looked up while leaning her body against his arm that seemed like it was trying to appease Knox, who was blatantly expressing his utter dislike.

“Knox, do you not feel hungry yet since you had a late lunch?”

“It’s not like that, but I…”

Knox replied before stopping abruptly. Only then did he realize that he was getting heated up more than he needed to be. Thus, he turned his gaze and shook his head just like he was ashamed of himself.

“Huft, I think that I should take some time to talk to my servants. For the most part, they don’t really have to act like shadows all over his dwelling.”

Vivian gave a silent laugh towards Knox’s words. As a matter of fact, she had been helped by the physician instead, since now, she didn’t have to tell him the truth anymore.

“Hand.”

“Yes?”

“Hold my hand.”

Vivian was immediately flustered by Knox’s nonchalant request before she awkwardly held his hand. The warmth that had seeped through Vivian’s fingertips was slightly hotter than her own.

“Oh, is it too hard to see since it’s quite dark?”

“No, I just want to hold your hand.”

“Ah.”

Vivian quietly lamented on her own.

It had been fairly like this as of late. Despite the fact that he could act like it even without the need to say anything, Vivian’s mouth would ultimately end up sealed with those very sweet words before he eventually expressed his satisfaction.

And the worst part was; Vivian had no other choice but to feel powerless.

Vivian finally gave a slight nod before walking out together with him. In the end, she still couldn’t bring up a single word of the most important thing after all.

And then, there was the physician who seemed to have thrown his agile insight somewhere else as he picked up the books once more before following them suit.

When they eventually reached the dining table, the chaos during lunch was already gone and only a tidy place was left to greet them all. It felt as though a fairy was dwelling at this home, seeing how another portion of food had already been prepared even before they realized it.

The first one who had really welcomed the fragrant scent was the physician. He put aside his books and quickly pulled a chair all by himself. At the same time, Vivian also became naturally hungry as well when the warm dishes had already been unfolded before her very eyes.

Even though it hasn’t been that long since I just ate. Vivian immediately clutched onto her stomach, but she still couldn’t take her eyes off that food once her mouth had started watering.
