Chapter 18

"Is my image like that usually?"

Marie glanced at him in a sudden, cold atmosphere eloped between the two.

"No...not that... Maybe..."

"It's all right"

'It doesn't seem like an objective answer...'

Marie couldn't answer that, and she thought she'd have to ask the secretary later.

"Really."

Kentrail emphasized again that she might not believe it.

'A strong negative is positive.'

After eating all the porridge and medicine, Marie said she would go out and exit the room. She went to tell Brielle about the Count's condition. Kentrail, who watched her back as she leaves her room, stares at the window and sinks into his thoughts.

'A grudge.'

Although he responded that way to her, in fact, a lot of people had a grudge against him. However, those were the grudges that took place after he became the chancellor. When his brother was in an accident, most of the people didn't know him.

'If so, does it mean it's a grudge against my brother?'

Though his brother was a person with a good reputation, unlike himself.

'Rather, perhaps it was the resentment towards my parents who got caught in the corruption case.' His thoughts moved to his parents.

'But... they weren't such a person.'

Suddenly goosebumps rose from the tip of his head.

'No way...'

It seemed that the case between his brother and his parents was completely unrelated. He opened his eyes in a hurry and started looking for a piece of paper to write a letter on.

'Right Now...'

He hurriedly wrote the letter to Derek and thought about possible clues that could be there.

"Uncle!"

When Brielle heard that Kentrail's condition had improved, he ran to visit him right away.

"Are you okay? It doesn't hurt anymore?"

"Yes..."

Kentrail stroked his nephew's head, looking at Brielle as he hung on the bed.

"Did you worry a lot?"

"Of course!"

"You didn't know how much he insisted on sleeping next to the Count last night."

At the words Marie added, the Count's mouth slipped up.

"Now that the fever has gone down, I'll be able to shake it off by tomorrow."

"Shake it off?"

Brielle didn't seem to understand Kentrail's words. He tilted his head curiously.

"I would get better."

"Ah~ Hehe."

The child was happy after hearing that his uncle was going to get better and pulled something out from his pocket.

"Uncle, I'll give you this."

"What is it?"

"It's my favorite chocolate."

"Chocolate?"

Kentrail took the chocolate from his nephew with his right hand and put it in his mouth.
