Chapter 13: Cold War? 

"… me?"

"You… you aren't planning on not giving him anything, are you?"

"Eh..? Of course, I-I'll give him something in return too."

I stuttered. What am I supposed to give him I return as worthy as that jadeite necklace? I can't just give him a pair of cufflinks bought in some mall.

Wait, why am I even thinking of this as if I am really thinking of him? No, no that can't be.

'Jade, he's only a character in a novel. No need to think of something as trivial as this.'

I calmed myself and think carefully.

According to the novel, Rosine bought him the most expensive cufflinks. But that was after they got into a relationship and Jean gave her his exclusive back card. In my case, I don't need his black card.

For now, let's just leave it as it is. I don't want to th

Her long wavy hair fluttered in the wind.As I was staring at her unrivaled beauty, she turned her head to me. Her brown eyes were staring into mine.[We finally met.]"Who are… you?"I asked her which in response, she smiled at me a little forced. She then walked towards me, or more like floated towards me. She looked like a ghost, not gonna lie.With her beautiful face, I'm sure she can get all the guys she wants.[No, even with my beauty, I didn't get the man of my dreams.]"Huh…?

    Chapter 15: Drinks from a snake? Thankfully, preparation and planning for the school fest went smoothly. Of course, not without Rosine's incessant pestering to the two of us. "Jean, I've been having a long time understanding this one. Can you explain it to me so I can answer the question regarding it?" "Later, I'm still busy." "Just once, hmm?" "…" 'Ah, it's just Jean.' Seriously this girl, can't she see that Jean and I were both busy for the school fest tomorrow? And besides, that project won't be needed at least after one week celebration of the school fest. 'I wish she teleported to somewhere else I can't see.' I muttered in my heart. Not long after, I felt the wind lightly touching my skin and the energy pulsating on my right wrist. 'It isn't time for my power to be known yet.' I tried

I hid behind the biggest tree so that no one will see me or no one will disturbed me here. I just wanted to do that, so what is Jean doing staring at me like that?"Why are you so surprised?""Who wouldn't be surprised when I opened my eyes and you're looking at me like that?! Do you think I would be happy?!""I guess you have a weak heart.""…!"This guy…!Can't he see that I'm suppressing my anger now?Instead of seeing the place I expected to see, when I opened my eyes, I just saw a Jea

It's the same as marrying me in the future.""W-what are you talking about? F-fine! I-I'll give you gift! But… not now…!""Alright then. I should wait for your good news."When he said that I can just marry him as my gift, I stuttered at my answer. It's not because 'I' like him or some sort of like that. It's because he's talking very near to my face.At an enclosed distance as this, I can hear my heart clearly beating inside my chest. It's as if it would jumped out at any moment. I don't know what to think at that moment.

A black suit was hugging decently his well-toned body with a white long sleeves underneath, a simple designed cufflinks adorned the hem of his sleeves.A black tie complimenting his usual business attire look, sitting in a magnificent swivel chair, legs crossed, his elbows drawn together, and his eyebrows furrowed while his eyes were tightly closed.After a moment of staring at him, I thought he wasn't like my biological brother at all. The aura he exuded is no joke at all. But what can he do, he was teleported here with him knowing nothing?'How does it feel, older brother?'I smiled evilly as I stared at his figure, sitting alone in the middle of the garden. I wanted to laugh as much as possible but he will hear me if I do that. So I stifled my laugh as I hide caref

    Chapter 19: 'She' said I need to go to the school festThe school fest, according to the novel, is a noble event for everyone. It's not just because of the fact that everyone can enjoy to their heart's content but also a time for everyone to confess their love.The thing that I am waiting to see with my own eyes is the grandiose profession of Rosine's liking towards Jean.Its description in the book was so detailed and I thought at that time when I was reading it, 'I wish to have a high self-esteem as her'.As I am an introvert, no one really talked to me so I have low self-esteem. Oftentimes, at the time of presentations, I would cower like a coward. That's how I grew up, but Rosine, she had so much self-esteem that I wanted to be her.『Under that willow tree behind the gymnasium, a girl with a blonde hair stood almighty with thousands rose petals scattered on th

    Chapter 20: What commitment are you talking about? All people around that willow tree looked at Jean with awe in their eyes. It looks like they admire Jean's commitment about our engagement. But that's not that important right now. What's important is why did Jean said those words. 'I don't understand.' Sitting above one of the willow trees here with a clear view of Jean and Rosine, I face palmed at this male lead. Until how long would I wait for the two of them to develop feelings for each other? Not long after, I saw Jean smiled and opened his mouth as he started to talk. "How about we become friends first, then I'll think my answer after that?" "Sure! I am willing to do that. Instead of my earlier confession, are you willing to be my friend, Jean Pierre Morris?" Now, what are they talking about? Is this some kind of business deal? Is this what Heather wants me to see, or there's more to it? I just don't understand what I can get from watching such a scene. 'If Heather is he

    Chapter 72: Brother and sister ∘₊✧──────✧₊∘ It has been two days since Heather went out. There was no news about the Aczen family, and even the main house was blocked from any entry. For the past two days, many people wanted to talk to the head of the Aczen family, and even to the two elder sons. But the head only sent out a message that he would be out of touch for a week. No one knew what was happening. This was the first time it happened. After all, Mr. Aczen was known to be a workaholic. Inside his room, Jean was sorting his files as Morris' eldest son. Because his sister Priyaa didn't want to be involved in their family business, he had no choice but to do it himself. His parents were also expecting much from him. ‘The expedition test will be a month from now.’ The thought of having their expedition test as students made Jean a lot happier. It was said that the last test would be held at the forest on the border of the country. Just thinking about it is waking up all t

    Chapter 71: What is this feeling? “So you mean to say, I have… rose power-wielding power? Me?” I was confused and pointed at myself. Dad just nodded his head with a worried expression on his face. If I have rose power-wielding, then shouldn’t they be happy? “Don’t you understand? Our family is in a riskier position. Not only are we hiding the fact you have already awakened, but the fact that you have two malignant powers inside your body.” There was a slight annoyance when Keab spoke. He took a sharp exhale before calming down and sat back down. When he spoke just now, he stood up as if he wanted to prove his point. They already told me the same thing last time. I put it on the back of my head, thinking nothing could happen more. Now that not only I have awakened, I even had two of the powers. As they said, my teleportation and rose-wielding power were dominant inside my body. That means I can use them both as I please without limitations. But that also means I have to be very

It was as if I was hit by something very hard on my head. When mom saw that I opened my eyes, she rushed beside me and held my hand tightly. She was once again crying. “How many times would you faint and scare us like this….”“Mom… I’m fine now. You can stop crying.”“This was never the first time you had fainted! Ever since you met that lowly girl who dared to seduce your cousin, this happened to you once in a while. This has been the fourth time already!”“Calm down first.”Dad tapped mom’s shoulder and soothed her to calm down. I can see the gentleness in his eyes despite his cold expression. He also looked exhausted. Chlofloris told me that I am asleep for two days already. I’m sure they were all worried about me. But what is this body! Always fainting at the smallest thing! I bit my lip at the scene in front of me. Both mom and dad l

If anything, the temperature was at its best and was even soothing my body. It was like I was under the water of the falls, where the water was massaging my sore muscles.When I looked around, I realized I was still in that room, but it now has some colors, though it was so light that it was blinding my eyes. I can make out flowers around me, but I’m sure they are small roses.I shook my head as I suddenly felt dizzy. The pain on my wrist was gone now, but the seal on my wrist was emitting more light than it ever did when I first got it.‘Why do I alway

Oftentimes, I would get a what you call ‘spoiler’ from the novel. Other than that, I frequently met the original Heather whenever I fainted.This time however, there was only darkness surrounding me. I don’t know if I fainted but I sure I did. The questioning factor of that was why did I faint in the first place. If I think about it, I didn’t do anything to get over fatigued enough to faint. Hiking doesn’t require that much stamina, moreover, I had a lot of rest afterwards. So, why?

Seriously, I was sleeping so fine earlier, and he had just barged in and woke me up. I was so angry at him that I scolded him from the time we went out of our mansion to the hiking area until we got back again. He was just laughing at

She even saw how a dangerous glint flashed his red eyes. Cold shivers ran down her back.She stared at Mir’s back. His hair was short and a luminous black, while his face was contoured with his sharp jaw and a pointed nose from his side view. If he tilted his head a little more, she would be able to see his face under his hood.

The reason was that she was losing her mind and didn’t know what to do.It was only at dawn that her eyelids feel heavy and she tried to sleep. At that moment when she almost succumbed into darkness, a pair of warm arms engulfed her into a tight hug.The warmth was familiar, so she let herself sleep, along with his sweet voice coaxing her to sleep.∘₊✧──────✧
