Chapter 467 - The fourth treasure (1/2)

*UNEDITED*

It did not occur to her that watching Rhys make medicine and do his work would interest her. Due to her sudden illness, it led to them having to stay. Allen still had work here so it worked out perfectly. Initially he was going to send her back and then return here. But now he does not have to do that. It worked out in the end.

'Lyn I am leaving you in that mans care, but if you need anything use your magic to call me over.'

Her sweat fell when she recalled those words. Does Allen truly think Rhys is dangerous? Sure Lyn could not deny those words. But he isn't that bad, at least she knew he would not try anything when she is sick. After he treated her, he did not

do anything else to her. It surprised Lyn when he pulled away, normally he would do something. When it came to matters regarding Rhys, she could not talk about it with anybody other than Master Ralph.

The last piece of advice he gave her was something Lyn could not do. She can't accept his feelings just because another person told her to do so. Besides, it's not like she did not try before. She already tried to confess before but he cut her off. If he did not do that then it would have been a problem. He did it for her own good but it still felt strange.

Lyn wrapped the blanket around her and weakly stood up. She walked over to where Rhys was and sat down beside him. She rested her head on his shoulder.

”You okay, Lyn?”

”Very tired. But it is hard to sleep in this place.”

”You should have asked Prince Allen to send you back to the palace.”

Lyn shook her head. It would mean leaving Rhys behind here.

It turns out Allen is not the only one who has work here but Rhys too. It was not a c? ”Rhys, where were you the past week?”

”I had to see a friend.”

A friend? She repeated those words in her head dumbfounded. Rhys has friends? Sure when they first met, she ran into a group of friends of his. But other than that time she seldom saw him with other people. Both Rhys and Kazuya are the lone wolf types, they dont have many friends. She does not see Kazuya speak much with the people who came with him, other than Fukami. Rhys talks to people easily but his gaze is elsewhere.

”Was it a girl?”

”A cute girl, yes.”

At that comment Lyn frowned. This was the first time Rhys admitted to seeing other girls, but its not like she did not know about it.

So thats why he disappeared for a week. He spent the week with that girl, what were they doing?

When a man and woman spend the week together, is it not obvious what happens? Lyn sighed at the thought. It is a good thing she did not say anything other than this. Right now she s acting jealous. Acting jealous is far too sly of her, how could she do that?

Lyn simply nodded. ”I see.”

A comforting silence fills the air for a moment when the doors suddenly opened. Her eyes widened when she saw Kazuya. ”Ah..”

”Rhys, you have to--” Kazuya paused when he saw her.

For a moment he did not say anything when they hear the sound of rushing footsteps approaching. Rhys moved her asie and stood up. ”Kazuya, hide over there.” He pointed to behind the bookshelf.

”Lyn, go back to the bed.”
