"Well, I wouldn't say that your family's normal . After all, both of your parents passed away early... How long has it been since it was just the two of you?"

Then Bessie pushed the doctor aside and approached me .

She clasped her hands on mine .

"Milady, please take care of yourself . Of course, we were worried too, but most importantly, please think about His Grace . "

Bessie has been working here for a very long time .

She was my mother's companion when my mother was still alive, and she took care of me and Jungkook instead of a negligent nanny .

To be honest, Bessie was more than just a mere employee for me and Jungkook .

"His Grace has only you, Milady . "

This was rather ironic .

I listened to Bessie's scolding, at the same time, I was thinking about the reason why I was supposed to die .

I was the only one who stayed by Jungkook's side...

Yes, of course .

I'm Jungkook's last family member .

The only person Jungkook can open and give his heart to .

The Jungkook who thinks that people are nothing more than crumbs .

'But it's a lie . '

I wasn't Jungkook's real family .

We don't share a single drop of blood .

We might have grown up as a family, but we could never be considered as a real family .

And this will be revealed in the future .

He gave his heart completely to his one and only special person without ever doubting them .

But, how would he feel if he finds out that we aren't blood-related?

The more he gives his heart to me, the more painful the feeling of betrayal will be later on .

'Seriously, I don't think he'd keep me alive . '

It wasn't surprising, but I still felt bitter .

Strangely, I couldn't open my mouth .

I couldn't answer Bessie casually without losing composure .

The Doctor stared at my speechless state, then gave Bessie a nudge with his elbow .

"What?"

"Why are you saying unnecessary things?"

"What do you mean 'unnecessary things'?"

"It's not like Milady wanted to drown in the pond . Why are nagging her?"

"Nagging? Did you just say nagging?"

"What else would call it if it's not 'nagging'?

"Hey, Doctor!"

"Okay, enough . "

I stood up and intervened between the two .

I totally forgot that these two can't be in the same room together .

Why did they have to visit at the same time anyway?

"I'm fine, so there's no reason to fight . Doctor, I'm alright . And Bessie, you're correct . Thank you . I'll be more careful next time . "

It's fortunate that I was able to mend the atmosphere .

I sighed and turned my head to Ji-eun .
