I narrowed my eyes and looked at the book.

The surface was gilded with gems such as blue topaz and had a small lock.

It did not appear to be a monastery-bound book based on its luxurious appearance.

‘Did he make it himself?’

That was how it appeared.

Of course, I had no idea who created it or what the title was.

In terms of binding method, it is no longer fashionable these days, but it was as clean as if it were brand new and had been properly stored.

‘Is this bastard trying to trick me again like before?’

Maybe he’s trying to fool me by bringing a book I’ve never heard of and pretending it contains memories.

I remembered trembling as Adrian told me we hadn’t seen each other in half a year when it turned out it had been five years.

I’m not sure why he keeps trying to check on me, but……

In any case, it was risky to say and pretend to know what I didn’t know. Finally, there was only one proper response.

“I-I’m not sure.”

Adrian, who had been tossing the book and catching it like a ball, came to a halt.

“…… Is that so?”

It must be the book I read with him because he has his eyes wide open as if surprised.

Then it was at least five years ago.

“Uh ah uhm… It’s been a long time…… since I’ve read it so……”

This was a fairly common sense reason.

It was back then. Someone quietly knocked on the door.

“My lady! My lady! May I come in now?”

Penny’s voice could be heard whispering.

I opened the door as soon as I realized it.

Penny said, sticking out her head as she held up the corn.

“Has that person left?”

Penny, who had made eye contact with Adrian inside, was frozen at the same time.

“That person?”

Adrian responded with an intriguing smile on his face.

“Who is that person?”

Penny’s eyes widened and hardened like ice.

The bedroom was deafeningly quiet.

Thud thud thud-

Adrian moved slowly, as if he were a lion approaching a prey with his back to the wall.

“I ask you, who is that person?”

Tuk- Penny, who had dropped the corn, pitifully shook her shoulders.

Adrian’s eyes glowed with ferocious energy.

“Didn’t I just ask you who was in this bedroom?”

“Argh!”

His wicked hand gripped Penny’s hair.

I jumped between the two, surprised.

“E…… Eddy!”

His gaze was drawn to me right away.

“L-let her go now.”

Despite my firmness, he refused to let go of his hand. Instead, he just stood there staring at me.

“Hurry.”

Fearful Penny began to cry.

It looked like she really scared of him.

I thought she was skinny these days, but something had to have happened.

“L-later…… Let’s read it together.”

Adrian eventually let go of his grip after I coaxed him with a wink of the book.

“All right, noona.”

He asked me with a casual smile, as if nothing had happened.

“You promised, right?” “……” His madness is truly a problem.

Adrian emanated an aura of a mad dog that I should never touch.

“You promised, right?”

I gave him a firm nod as he pressed for an answer.

“Then I’ll be waiting for you, noona.”

“……”

“Good night.”

Adrian then quietly brushed Penny’s side and exited the room.

Clack-

I heard the door close.

“Uwaaaahhh…… sob sob……”

Penny sank to the ground and sobbed, as if to release her tension.

At that pitiful look, I swept her back to calm her down.

“Penny, don’t cry. He’s gone.”

I was afraid she’d burst if I called Adrian’s name, so I just called him “he.”

“Lady…… I’m very… young master… I’m scared.”

“It’s fine, what’s so scary about him?”

There must be some connection between the two.
