Chapter 37.2 (2/2)

“It was a lie.”

“Eek!”

Damian burst into laughter, content with himself.

Charlize, who stared at Damian despite wishing just to strangle him right then and there, sighed.

“Anyways, it’s my fault that I fell asleep… … I’m sorry.”

“……What?”

Damian stopped smiling, his cheerful demeanor ebbed away by Charlize’s unexpected reaction.

It was just meant to be a small joke, I didn’t even think that Charlize would take it so seriously.

Charlize shrugged her shoulders, disappointed in herself.

“I needed to stay alert and take care of you… … the fact that I feel asleep is unacceptable for me.”

“Lize, I’m not… …”

“Prince, I’m sure you’re disappointed with me. I have nothing to say.”

Her sullen voice resonated in Damian as the atmosphere in the room grew somber.

Charlize’s downcast eyes stung Damian to the core as he hurriedly opened his mouth to reverse the situation.

“No, Lize.”

“However… …”

“I know how much you suffered because of me but there’s nothing to be disappointed about.”

Then, Charlize glanced at Damian with her lilac-colored eyes.

She snapped back unevenly at Damian.

“…Does everything have to be a joke to you!?”

Oh, no.

Damian smiled awkwardly to lighten the situation but it was to no avail.

Charlize crossed her arms, turning her head to the side, exasperated by Damian’s antics.

“Hmph.”

She’s sulky, I guess I went too far considering she went through so much so that I could get better.

Cold sweats broke out, running down Damian’s back.

He called her again.

“Lize.”

“Charlize.”

Charlize remained taut at the first call but after hearing Damian sincerely call out to her the second time, she slowly turned to face him.

Damian spoke with a mournful voice.
