Chapter 358 - I Didnt Want to Know (7) (1/2)
”I'm not drinking this again,” I vomited the one he forced me to drink last night.
I couldn't believe I was inside his villa again when I opened my eyes again. Luke never broke his promises before. I was inside the infirmary again as he watched over me, reading another book. His promise to me was that I would be able to spend the rest of summer vacation with my family. I found myself attached to similar machines like the ones in the first district.
”Why am I here?” I turned to him.
”You fell down the stairs. You parents will be visiting you in the morning here today. From now on when we visit the third district, instead of us going to them, they'll be coming to you,” Luke showed how he was still keeping his promise.
”But it was just a fall,” I complained.
My body would never get stronger if he always hooked me up to all these machines that could heal me within a few days. I frowned as I closed my eyes, trying to pull all those needles out. But Luke grabbed onto my hand, preventing me from disconnecting myself from them.
This was how we spent the night together in the infirmary until I noticed a small car driving towards the gates. I didn't think my parents would come since they still needed to go to work today. After Luke passed me an outfit to change into, he teleported near the gates and pretended to have waited for them to come. Several servants also came into the room to help me with dressing myself.
I agreed with him that I wanted to appear as normal as possible. I didn't want to make my parents always worried for me as I began to sprint towards the entrance after closing the door. I smiled as I opened the doors for them, welcoming them inside. My parents looked stunned as they couldn't stop turning their heads to process the scene in front of them.
”There's nothing to do inside here,” I sulked to show them I liked their house better.
Instead of focusing on me, they were distracted from looking at the extravagance interior. Their minds seemed to be blanked out as they followed us to eat breakfast together in the grand dining room. Only when Luke passed me the bottle of medicine, they remembered that I was here with them. They were reluctant to eat on their own with Evan while Luke was busy trying to feed me that horrible bottle that was hard to digest.
”I already drank this last night,” I pushed the bottle back to him.
”Three sips,” Luke started to negotiate.
He pointed out that my parents were too busy watching our exchange to eat. Even Evan didn't touch his plates as he followed our parents. I glared at him before drinking three sips like he wanted before passing it to him back. Placing the bottle on the table, he gestured that everyone was eating now due to my sacrifice.
My parents gasped as they ate the food at a fast pace. They knew why Evan was obsessed with my leftover plates from last time now. After they were finished, I pulled on my mom's arm, about to give her a tour of the mansion. Since I was often confined in the Roselia family mansions, I went exploring from boredom a lot.
