I Found a Husband When I Picked up the Male Lead - Chapter 12.1

That night. 

Werazel sent someone to the Prosier’s to explain why she has to stay with the duke for a month. She didn’t forget to say that she would drop by early tomorrow to pick up the luggage she wasn’t able to bring earlier because this arrangement was not in her plans at all.

“Lizelle!”

When they were ready to sleep, Lapel gazed out at the large window.

The room that the Duke provided them was not only just as good as the parlor, but it was also as luxurious. It’s probably just one of the dozen guest rooms, but it has a chandelier with beautiful crystals and marbled flooring.

A king-sized bed, a sculpture-like dressing table, and a bathroom with a large bathtub.

The room is reminiscent of a hotel suite that was three times larger than her own room at the baron’s.

“Those are stars. So pretty, aren’t they?”

Werazel hugged the little boy.

Lapel, being wrapped by Lizelle, smiled widely.

Lizelle’s arms always give me comfort. 1

The view of the night sky, seen through the window pane, was reflected in the eyes of the two with a friendly atmosphere.

The scenery of tens of thousands of stars is spectacular. From her room in the house of the Baron, the sky was sparse due to the large tree outside. The sky that can be seen slightly through the leaves always brought her the feeling of being cramped so she wanted to stay in a room with an open view and this room was just like that. The landscape was brilliant and glorious without anything obstructing the view. It gave her a sense of freedom just by looking at it.

I don’t want anything in this mansion, but this view is out of this world. I want to take a picture. 

“Yes. Pretty.” Lapel stretched out his short arm which was held by Lizelle’s arms as if he wanted to catch the stars. To catch the star, he stretched his hand.

“Hmp!”

But nothing caught.

Lapel cried and pulled Lizelle’s arm when he saw that his small palm was empty.1

“Star!! Hing!! I want a star!”1

“Star? That’s something you can’t catch. “

“No! I want a star!”

He was struggling. Lizelle became confused by the actions of this young child. It reminded her of a child misbehaving to buy a toy at a toy store in a department store. How do the child’s parents deal with this? Werazel felt troubled for a moment.

“Star! Hmp!!! “

Lapel was struggling in her arms.

Lizelle decided to do what she had seen one day.

“What’s this?” Lizelle reached to the skies and clenched her fist as if snatching something with her hand, acting as if she had found something.

“You got a star?” Lapel stopped struggling and his eyes gleamed in anticipation.

Lizelle didn’t stop there, she waved her fist and brought it to Lapel’s face and spread her palm out.

“Star, where is the star?” He glanced around Lizelle’s hand with Lapel’s eyes spreading as she moved with her dazzling hand movements.

But there was nothing to see. Lapel thought, it should not be? She caught something, but her hand was empty, there were no twinkling stars. 

His confused eyes turned to Lizelle.

“The star? It’s here.”

Lizelle smiled and poked the end of Raphelion’s eyes. Lapel laughed and touched his eyes with both hands, but when he felt nothing, he quickly became disappointed.

“Where…”

Lapel stuck out his lips and looked down, pouting.

“Lapel’s eyes contain stars. They twinkle.”

“Twinkle?

“Yes. Lapel’s eyes twinkle like the stars.”

The little boy lifted his head and captured the friendly smile of Werazel in his eyes. Lizelle’s green eyes are like stars.

It was sparkling. It was Lapel’s only star, which he had been searching for, embroidered in the night sky.
