Rehabilitate the Villainess - Rehabilitate the Villainess chapter 76

76 – Dessert (2)

A situation that can’t be easily figured out. Sael looked at the dessert she left behind and opened her mouth.

“Have I done something wrong, by any chance?”

“⋯?”

Shael tilts her head. In other words, I didn’t do anything wrong.

Still, she had no choice but to ask her again.

Otherwise, there was no reason for Shael to leave my dessert.

“⋯Is it because you asked me to remove the ring of control?”

It was Shael who frowned slightly upon hearing her ring of control, but that was all she did.

So the ring of control didn’t make Shael leave dessert. However, Shael, who recalled the ring of control at my question, said.

“Why are you asking me to remove the ring of control?”

“Wouldn’t there be an inconvenient situation?”

I couldn’t tell the truth, so I made an excuse. You say you can’t talk to people of the opposite sex except for Sael’s bloodline?

Of course there will be uncomfortable situations.

However, it was an excuse that did not work for Shael. It wasn’t even a very good excuse in my opinion in the first place.

“⋯⋯ Flirt.”

Shael said with a cold expression. Shael’s face flushed red, as if he was delusional about me as a man doing evil things.

She opened her mouth before Sael’s face turned red enough to explode.

“⋯⋯No.”

“Don’t lie.”

Shael is glaring at me. It was Shael’s cold gaze that he hadn’t seen in a long time.

I needed a way to cool Sael’s anger.

Before Shael could interrogate me further, she picked up a cookie. She was also Sael’s second favorite dessert after cupcakes.

She reached out to Shael in that state. She meant to feed her cookies.

“I won’t eat it.”

“My fiancé’s arm is difficult.”

Shael looks at her cookies. What I handed over was one of the cookies Sael left behind. So even if Sael rejected my favor, there was nothing strange about her.

But dessert wasn’t the main thing. The important thing was that I was passing the cookie.

Shael sighed as if she couldn’t help it and came closer to me. As usual, Shael took the cookie I gave him and ate it.

In that state, Shael calmly stopped. She paused as if she was waiting for something.

“What are you doing?”

“⋯.”

Shael looks at me annoyed. Sael, who had been holding her breath for a while, patted her own chest with her hand.

I meant hug right away.

She recognized the meaning right away, but she let go of her pretensions and asked Shael.

“I don’t know what you mean.”

“⋯⋯Hug me.”

It was the first time I heard Sael’s straightforward remarks. Just as Sael said, she hugged him warmly.

You gave me courage. It was my own way of complimenting her with her admirable feelings for Sael.

Shael buried her face in my arms. At the same time, Shael’s voice was heard.

“Of course I will be the first.”

Whenever you call me a cheater.

Suddenly and earnestly. Her voice was unsuitable for a woman who was called a wicked woman.

I think I’ve conveyed my feelings several times before, but it’s always like this. Shael’s worries continue to grow.

Of course, you can understand. Sael’s concern was because of her love for me.

If Shael’s insecurity has settled in her heart, then I should be able to erase her anxiety even at the cost of her discomfort.

Thinking about this, I said to Shael.

“Of course it is. Except for Sael Azbel, I have never hugged anyone.”

I will continue to do so.

I hugged Shael tightly, swallowing her gossip that I would have known even if I didn’t have to say it.

“Of course it should.”

Shael’s grumbling words were a bonus. Even that, Shael’s face was bright red, so she sounded cute to me.

After a very short time, Shael returned to her seat.

After she originally talked about the blessing meeting, she tried to convince me to remove the ring of control, but ⋯⋯.

She was sure to be scolded by Shael if she spoke about the Ring of Control again.

Things change when this happens. First of all, I wanted to find out about Shael’s condition.

She confirmed when I fed him cookies for a hug. Naturally, Sael wasn’t fed up with my cookies.

So I have a question. Why did Shael leave dessert?

She was worried that Sael might have a problem with her.

“⋯Are you sick?”

“⋯I don’t feel sick.”

Sael answered as if it were natural, but I didn’t believe her words.

Because Sael didn’t care whether her body was sick or not, she didn’t care.

She approached Shael. Unlike her embrace, she carefully observed Shael’s body. Then she backed away as Shael spat out her saliva.

“⋯Is it because you gained weight?”

“⋯!”

Shael hardened her face as if slightly surprised.

Then Shael shook her head. She was suspicious at first, but after denying it so strongly, little by little I am convinced.

Shael opened her mouth as if to make an excuse.

“I don’t even get belly fat.”

“It can’t be.”

First of all, it is true that Shael is thin. Because she was so skinny that I was worried.

Still, getting rid of belly fat was another thing. No matter how skinny she was, her belly fat was normal. Not some kind of skeleton.

She didn’t bother to tell Sael, but she approached him.

She reached out her hand to Sael’s stomach. She was able to catch very little belly fat.

Sael immediately blushed at her, but not me. Rather, I wanted to let out a sigh.

No matter how you look at it, Shael’s body was dry.

I wanted to eat dessert right away with that thought, but⋯⋯.

At first, he spoke to Shael in a playful tone.

“What is this cute belly fat?”

“⋯!”

Shael blushes in her face. Shael tried to make excuses by opening her mouth, but Shael couldn’t because of her shame.

Drrr!

She was Shael who chose to run away. Shael hurriedly rose from her chair, she said.

“⋯I’ll drink some water.”

The drinking water was already on the table.

A lie I didn’t even think of. Pretending to fall for Sael’s sloppy lie, he nodded her head.

Kikiiikㅡ

Shael walked out of her room. She laughs at her quirks. Then she turned her head towards the dessert Shael had left for her.

“…?”

Then something catches my eye. A piece of paper lying on her chair where Shael was sitting.

It was a familiar piece of paper. The paper that served as a kind of script, on which Sael wrote down the questions he would ask me.

I wanted to read the paper again. I lifted the paper carefully so as not to tear it.

Flutter

What you see is Shael and my handwriting.

ㅡ What is your favorite thing?

ㅡ Sael Azbel.

It was a phrase that made me feel ashamed no matter how many times I read it. I took a slow breath and looked at another question.

ㅡWhat kind of food do you like?

What was your answer to this question? I looked back at the memory with my head up.

-‘⋯What kind of food do you like?’

-‘I like cheesecake.’

That’s what I answered. When he lowered his head again, he saw Shael’s handwriting clearly written as if to indicate that fact.

ㅡCheesecake!

Unknowingly, she raised the corner of her mouth. As if he couldn’t hide his feelings while writing the letters, there is an exclamation mark at the end.

The bottom line is also drooping. Was it that good that I found out my favorite food?

Seeing that, I couldn’t even lower the corner of my mouth that had gone up, and I had no choice but to put the paper down with a smile.

Kikiiikㅡ

Shael came into the room again. This time, too, she was through hurried, quick steps. It was clear that she was worried that her quickness might have caught the paper.

Soon, she pretended not to know anything and kept her expression, turning her head towards the dessert Shael left behind.

It was hard to understand why Shael said she would lose weight and she left dessert, but ⋯⋯.

First of all, it was a waste to throw away the dessert, so I should eat it too. It was when she was about to eat dessert while thinking so.

“⋯.”

She

She said she would lose weight. I thought she left dessert.

No.

Desserts Sael left behind on her table. Uncharacteristically for Sael, she sees the desserts she hasn’t even touched.

-‘⋯What kind of food do you like?’

-‘I like cheesecake.’

And what Shael didn’t touch…

Cheese cake.

It was something Sael left for me.

It was only then that Shael realized why she left dessert.

‘Then, what about other things besides cheesecake?’

I could understand the reason without thinking deeply. Shael is shy.

If you left only cheesecake, you didn’t eat cheesecake for me on purpose. Because it will make you sick.

It was Sael’s obvious way of thinking.

She reached out for the fork. I ate some of the cheesecake with a fork. Cheesecake melts in your mouth.

Cheese cake minus the sweetness for Sael’s health. Of course, there was no taste.

“Do you like it?”

A cheesecake with a strange taste, minus the sweetness. Even now, when the cheesecake melts in your mouth, you can feel the mild taste. So it would be normal to have a bitter smile.

“⋯⋯ Is delicious.”

A sweet smile faded. Cheesecake wasn’t the reason. It was because Sael’s heart felt sweeter than bland cheesecake.
