Chapter 25

Translator: Darling | Editor: Coming soon…

It’s night. Lord Edward finally came back to our room.

It’s been a long time since he’s come back.

“Welcome back Lord Edward. You must be tired. Should I have a maid bring you something to eat?”

“No need. I already ate.”

“I see…”

Since he’s been so busy, it’s been a long time since he last came back. So, I wanted to at least do something with him.

But he already ate.

Even if I’m not around, there are always people around the prince, so I’m sure someone’s paying attention to his needs.

I’m sure someone had dinner prepared for him.

After all, he’s been so busy that he hasn’t even been able to come back. I hope he’s taking care of his health.

“I came here because I had some business with you.”

“Oh, what is it?”

Why is he saying it that way? It’s almost as if he’s saying that if he didn’t have any business with me, he wouldn’t have come back today.

I have a really bad feeling about this.

His expression is a bit different from usual; he seems a bit stiff. I feel like

It feels like it’s been some time since I last saw him smile.

Even though not too long ago, all I would ever see would be his smiling face.

“It’s about your room, it’s finally done. It should be ready sometime tomorrow, as soon as it’s ready, please move over there.”

“Oh… Uh… Ok.”

So, the business was really just about my room.

I guess he really did have it prepared.

While it is true that I have been staying in Edward’s room until the preparations for my room were complete, for some reason, I couldn’t help but feel uneasy about this.

“I have to go back to the office. It’s not good for the child if you’re up so late, please rest.”

“Ok…”

Lord Edward left as soon as he said that.

So, he’s not going to spend the night with me today?

Is he that busy…?

While I was worried about Lord Edward’s health, I was also feeling strangely suspicious. Was he perhaps not coming back because I was living in his room?

On top of that, he didn’t even kiss me, hug me, or even touch me.

I laid down on the bed as Lord Edward instructed me.

It’s gotten pretty late. Still, I’ve waited so long for him to come back…

Before I knew it, the white pillow I was burying my face on was covered in tears.

The room that he had prepared for me was one of the guest rooms. My room was right next to Yuki’s room.

If it’s one of the guest rooms, anyone should have been able to stay in them even without any prior arrangements.

Even though I could have just stayed in the guest room from the beginning.

For what reason have I been living in Lord Edward’s room up until now? Why was I told that the room’s preparation couldn’t be done yet?
