âAll right! Huh? Wait a minute. Here, thereâs a little bit of food on your face.â
Min-ha sat next to the child, cut the food, and fed it to him one by one. Then, she noticed something on his mouth and wiped it off with her hand.
As Min-haâs hand approached his face, the child, who froze at that moment, looked blankly at her hand that wiped off the dirt on his face. Then, the child burst into laughter at Min-ha, who looked at him affectionately.
âOh, you laughed!â
Min-ha looked at the childâs smiling face for the first time, and soon, they smiled happily together.
Bangââ!
But at that moment, the closed door roared open.
Seth, who looked very angry, came into the room with a sharp sword. Then, he looked around the room with eyes that seemed as though it could burn anyone to death, found Min-ha and the child, and shouted.
âNoah! What the hell are youâŚ!â
ââŚâŚ.Noah?â
ââŚâŚ.You, really!â
In an instant, Seth, who came across the room to the table where Min-ha and the child sat, looked straight at the child, turned his eyes towards Min-ha, and stared at her coldly.
âIs this NoahâŚâŚ.?â
Min-ha looked at Sethâs fiery expression and casually recalled the name he uttered. Sethâs eyes then became colder and sharper. It was when Seth was about to say something that the child smiled at Min-ha as if he was full of energy and said,
ââŚâŚWhatâs the matter, brother?â
âWhat the hell is going on! Why the hell are you here! Whereâs your knight?â
The child called Seth, who was very angry, âbrotherâ. Min-ha was surprised by the term that came out of the childâs mouth, and she felt her mouth gape stupidly due to it.
So this is Noah, the brother of Seth Persen and the child Minase Persen emotionally abused and neglected?
I thought his clothes were pretty fancy, but I didnât know that he was Noah. It was because I didnât think that the only young master of this mansion would wander around without a knight or a servant.
Min-ha looked surprised as she looked at Noah with a blank expression, holding his arm slightly. However, for a moment, Min-ha looked at Seth, who looked coldly at her.
Seth snorted when he saw Min-haâs blank face, the table, and her hands holding his arm. Then, he stood with his arms folded and stared at her coldly and sarcastically.
âWhat the hell is this?â
Again.
That face looks ridiculous. And that sarcastic way of speaking. Min-ha said, slightly narrowing her eyebrows.
âAre you saying this is a tactic of mine? Thatâs too much.â
âThen what is it? Is it a new scheme of yours? Otherwise, even when no one is watching, youâre spending your time with a child whose blood is of a lowly commoner? That canât happen.â
âItâs neither a tactic nor a scheme. And the blood of a lowly commoner? Youâre talking too badly about the child in front of him.â
âWhatâs the big deal? This is what you directly said to Noah.â
ââŚâŚOh, really?â
Minase Persen. How many times was this womanâs karma experienced by me instead? Iâm the one who feels dejected now.
In Min-haâs mind, she cursed Minase Persen, the owner of the body she possessed. In the meantime, Min-ha stared at Seth, who always blocked her words by citing Minase Persenâs bad deeds.
I never stood up for what Minase Persen did.
She deserves the karma and the blame. So, it was not that she was ignorant of how Minase always picked a fight and nitpicked at everything, but he was angry at the wrong person.
Min-ha raised her hand and covered Noahâs ears tightly, who was frightened by his brotherâs angry face, and said to Seth, who was looking down at her.
âEven if so, that doesnât necessarily mean you can say such things in front of the child! Donât you think your words will hurt the child?â
âThatâs funny. I donât think thatâs what someone who hurt Noah so many times would say.â
âI told you before, didnât I? I said I wouldnât do such things anymore. I told you I wouldnât bother you or anyone else. Whatâs more, Iâm not smart enough to calculate everything before I act. Why canât you believe what people say?â
âYou want me to trust you?â
âYes. You wonât believe me. You donât want to believe me. But if you canât believe me, the least you could do is believe my actions! Youâre going to have your servants watch over my behaviour anyway, arenât you?â
ââŚâŚ.What.â
âWhatâŚ. Did I justâŚ.? Oh my god. I said that because I was emotional.â
The last words she uttered were only a wild guess of hers she said out of anger because she was annoyed by the way he always blamed people, but when Min-ha couldnât get out of it, Seth burst into laughter because he was speechless.
Then, Seth, who laughed at Min-haâs words as if it were absurd, looked at Min-haâs hands that covered Noahâs ears, and said.
âWerenât you always monitoring me as well? You always waited for me to leave the mansion, and then picked on Noah and my servants right after. Thatâs not all. Rupert Guinivis, why donât you invite him in and play with him?â
ââŚ..So?â
âSo, you think that by taking Noah this time you can avoid my eyes? If you thought you could do that because youâve already done so before, then that would be quite a plausible reason.â
âWhat? How the hell does that even make sense?â

âDo you think it makes sense for me to think of someone who took Noah without saying a word other than his knight otherwise?â
ââŚ..!â
âBesides, have you ever wondered how worried a childâs guardian will be if the childâs whereabouts were not known for hours, not a moment?â
And even more so if itâs you who took Noah.
After saying those words, Seth stared at Min-ha with suspicious eyes.
