“Is that so?”
Yves brushed the dirt off his hands and wiped them on his pants.
As he flexed his arms, veins bulged over his muscular forearms.
Radis, who had been staring blankly at those arms, came to her senses and let out a small laugh.
‘No, this is the Marquis. Don’t forget. This is Yves Russel…!’
At that moment, Yves looked at Radis and spoke.
“Radis.”
“Yes, Marquis.”
“I have something to show you.”
“Go ahead.”
Suddenly, Yves slowly raised his handsome arm and dramatically spread his hands.
Then, he ran his hands through his hair.
His fair face was fully revealed in the bright daylight.
His perfectly high nose bridge, his manly, prominent forehead, his thick, dark eyebrows, and unbelievably dazzling golden eyes.
“…..!”
Radis almost fainted on the spot from the sudden face attack.
Yves blinked his long, black eyelashes and said,
“Look.”
He gathered his hair at the top of his head.
“Apple.”
“……”
This time, he split his hair into two sections with both hands.
“Cherry.”
“……”
“…Is it not good? Is it bad…?”
Radis had to muster every bit of vigilance to resist the cute attack that seemed capable of easily destroying the entirety of the marquisate.
She glared at Yves with all the vigilance she could muster from her soul and asked,
“What are you doing?”
“Huh?”
Yves’ cheeks slowly turned pink at her sharp reaction.
“Well, you’ve been looking upset since you came back from the capital. It’s because of the Third Prince, right?”
Yves mumbled cutely.
“So, I thought you’d like me more if I did some research. Was it too stupid?”
The thought of this big man researching such things in an attempt to cheer her up made Radis’ rational mind fly to another world.
Like a swift cat, she lunged, grabbed his collar, and kissed him.
She couldn’t think of anything.
It was just soft.
Without meaning to, her eyes closed naturally.
It felt like pressing her lips to a sweet, soft fruit, the only one in the world, too precious to bite into…
“……!”
Radis came to her senses when Yves wrapped his arm around her shoulder.
She quickly pulled her lips away.
She saw Yves slowly open his eyes right in front of her.
Radis had never been this embarrassed in her life.
“S-Sorry! I didn’t mean to…!”
Yves pulled her closer, wrapping his arms around her.
Having already committed a major sin, Radis couldn’t resist being pulled in.
His face was flushed, his lips were swollen red, and his golden eyes glowed dangerously.
“Radis.”
Yves cupped her cheek with his large hand and asked,
“You… like me, don’t you?”
Her lips trembled.
She could no longer hide it.
Being this close, staring into his eyes as if looking into his soul, she couldn’t hide anything.
Slowly nodding, Radis opened her mouth with difficulty.
“Yes.”
Her voice trembled so much it sounded like someone else’s.
She felt like she might cry.
“…I like you.”
She saw his eyes blur.
Even though he was the one who had asked her to say it, he looked as if he couldn’t believe it.
Radis repeated it for him.
“Yves Russel, I like you.”
His lips trembled slightly.
Looking as if he might cry any moment, he wrapped one arm around her waist and pulled her close.
Then he placed her hand on his chest.
She could clearly feel his heart pounding rapidly under his solid chest.
It felt as if she were holding his heart in her hand.
Handing her his heart, Yves said,
“I love you.”
At his confession, Radis closed her eyes.
As her eyelids closed, the tears that had pooled in her eyes streamed down.
How could this have happened?
Born in entirely different places, living different lives, meeting with different purposes—how could they have come to love each other so much?
In the midst of so many people, how could they have become so desperately essential to each other, as if they wouldn’t mind giving their hearts away?
Yves enveloped her tear-soaked lips with his.
