Chapter 543 - Lieutenant Teo (2/2)
He didn't want to bring it up so casually. But Teo knew that if he brought it up seriously then she would casually avoid it.
His eyes went wide when he saw the girl's sudden flushed cheeks. Huh? This reaction…
”Aah….” She laughed softly. ”It's okay, we are only discussing some work.”
Discussing, and yet she reacts that way?
However, quite some time has passed since he saw that expression on her face. A genuine expression that is so he supposed he could let it slide. But no that's wrong, no matter how you think about it.
”Let me clarify things.”
”Okay..?”
”Where do you go when you have your meetings?”
”His apartment.”
His face colour paled at her words.
She is too blunt. What if someone overhears them right now?
”Next question, who comes with you?”
Surely she isn't stupid enough to just walk in there alone.
”Nobody.”
Just now he secretly prayed to himself that she wouldn't say that. He prayed very hard just now. ”Although I hesitate asking. The time of your meetings?”
”Night.”
The final blow. Of course it's night time. Of course, there is not enough room in the girls schedule for those two to meet unless it's then.
”Um lieutenant? What's wrong ?”
”No I am just thinking how much of a failure I am as your guard.” Teo murmurs.
He can just imagine it now, if they meet at night he wouldn't be surprised if they've engaged in indecent activities.
What if the anti fraction already have and are just waiting for a single big shot that exposes everything?
”If it helps he calls Pupillam to pick me up?”
”You should have said so sooner!” Teo exclaimed.
Normally he is calm and composed. But when he is around this person that rationality disappears in an instance.
”Um, sorry?”
But if that's the case then Pupillam knew of their relationship. She must approve of it to a certain degree otherwise she would have told her to stop by now.
”Lieutenant?”
”I want you to tell me something. What relationship do you have with sir Rhys now? Are you two….”
Lyn's eyes went wide but only for a split second. Maybe he should have paid more attention to that look of hers then. Yet it was far too late for him since her expression changed almost immediately.
The black haired girl shakes her head, her violet orbs softened. ”You misunderstand. Although saying were friends is strange too. Even though I can't describe our relationship. I, even now, only love one person. Even though he isn't here right now he's the only I love.”
”I see…I apologise for misunderstanding.”
Her words sound sincere. Of course there. People know that no matter how fond the Princess is of Sir Rhys, the one she still likes is that man.
”No it's quite alright. In fact I feel quite refreshed now that I've told you. I know that a lot of people have been wondering about it after all and yet I haven't had the chance to explain.” Lyn trails of. ”When you constantly have to do work as a Princess and make stupid appearances you never have time for anything.”
Teo couldn't miss her tone when she said 'stupid.' There was genuine disgust in her voice.
His sweat dropped. ”You have it rough after all.”
”Right I do? That's why nobody should complain when I go anywhere to relax.”
Teo immediately understood the meaning of her words. 'So that was the reason why.'
