The Baby Who Raised the Devil

Time to Choose Your Father(4)

Whiney.

Whiney.

I ate the cake with tears and a runny nose. My mind was empty at the time. Duke Dubblede is a petty man. I can eat the rest of the bread. Why is he so angry about it? I looked at the Duke sitting opposite me with an annoyed look.

Lea, who brought me cake, said with a guilty look,

“She went to bed early and she couldn't eat. So..."

"So he took the bread thrown away by the servants."

“.....”

Lea's face paled. He continues to look guilty but Lea is innocent.

After feeling somewhat full, I extended my hand to Lea.

"I'm going to go..."

I want to finish eating cake. But I don't want to see a good Lea getting scolded by a bad guy !

At that moment, the Duke also extended his hand to me. The hand of the Duke, who was about to give the rest of the cake to me, stopped in midair...

The atmosphere suddenly became colder.

“........”

“........”

“........”

"What's wrong with her?"

“I think he was afraid of being scolded a while ago.”

Lea's right. I'm just so scared of being threatened by the Duke. His look just makes me nervous. So I said,

"I'll be back." (I'll be back.)

Lea calmed me down with a troubled look, and at one point, she bit her lips as if she had made up her mind.

"Bu ... sir!"

“.......”

"Little Miss has to finish her meal, so you have to go back!"

He looked like a knight who attacked a group of soldiers alone. Duke looked at me, and I hid behind Lea's arm. Shortly thereafter he nodded.

As soon as she left, Lea carried me as we went to my room.

Then, he left my room quickly.

His face was pale and his lips were trembling. Lea, as a servant in her mansion, had probably witnessed how cold-hearted she was.

So imagine how scary she would be to act like that.

'People like him are a bit rare.'

I'm very happy. Leah took me to my room and brought me something to eat. It was milk porridge with chestnuts in it.

I patted my stomach after emptying two bowls of milk porridge.

“I'm very happy if truwss merawsaw Lyawpar.” (I'm sorry I keep feeling hungry.)

Lea hugged me with a teary face.

“Don't say that. Little miss needs a lot of food and sleep."

He laughed when he put me to bed.

"Hopefully dream, little lady."

After eating, I woke up after a good night's sleep. I felt bad for Lea last night, so I decided to show her my cuteness. “Ne , like this!” (Lea, I like you!)

The servants were very happy when they saw me hugging her legs with my fat hands.

The corner of Lea's mouth was raised.

Suddenly, a servant who was looking at the door became stiff and soon all the other servants had the same expression.

'Stretch, that's a bad guy!'

Duke Dubbled and his lieutenants looked at me. I hurriedly hid behind Lea.

“Li... little miss..”.

Both the lieutenant and Lea called out to me simultaneously.

But I shook my head

' He's really scary....'

I'm still scared because of last night .

The lieutenant, who was sweating from nervousness, said awkwardly.

“Try to call his name well. Until the baby can get out."

"......"

Duke remained silent. He looked at me and frowned for a moment.

I shake my head in my heart.

' Uncle, the bad guy doesn't even know my name.'

I was here for ten days and yet he never called me by my name. He just called me by a strange nickname. She must have never been my pinkie sent by the Empress Dowager.

“Leblain.”

Duke called my name.

' He knows my name?'

I was so confused that I just blinked. The Duke has a famous story that he doesn't even remember Mina's name even though she was in the palace for over three months. It's amazing that Duke remembers my name.

' But it seems like he's not interested in me at all.'

Duke spoke to me again

"What's wrong? come here."

Everyone's eyes are on me. I hesitated and looked out slowly.

"Do you want to hit me?"

(Are you going to hit me?)

"I won't."

' You did it, you hit me with your words. With words.'

As I looked at him with a look full of disbelief, he took out something from his pocket. It was a lollipop.

"There's a lot of this here."

"......"

I lost all reason and ran towards him.

Somehow, there seemed to be an arrogant grin hanging in his mouth.

' How much candy does he have? he's rich, there's probably ten.'

She was carrying me as she walked down the aisle . Every time they saw us, they were shocked because they stopped doing their job.

It was a natural reaction.

The Duke, who had stopped walking, lowered me in front of a door.

'There must be candy here!'

I opened the door with high hopes and entered.

I was shocked, I gulped when I saw candy filling the room. I glanced at Duke.

' Can I really eat all this?'

I asked permission through my eyes, “Eat as much as you want.” Duke said in a monotonous voice.

'Oh my God!'

I rushed to the candy pile. There were a lot of sweets that I could even swim around nearby.

There are things like packaged chocolate or marshmallows. I tore the shiny gold wrap and ate it.

'...Nicely done.'

The Duke frowned after being shocked for a while. I don't have time to care about something like that. Do rich people eat this delicious food every day?

The sweet lump quickly melted into my mouth, and the fruit syrup quickly swallowed my mouth.

I ate a lot of them quickly.

Every time I chew, my cheeks become stye and vibrate.

I quickly finished one and ate another candy.

This time it's candy canes.

I tried to put candy in my mouth when I felt someone glancing at me, so I hesitated.

I looked at Duke.

' If I eat alone, I'll look disgusting.'

Did I not realize when I was a beggar? Even with one meal, I can build affection when that food is shared. So I gave her candy.

"I'll give you two for you." (I'll give it to you.)

He looked at me and narrowed his eyes in confusion.

“Why ?”

I said nothing as he slowly opened his mouth again.

“You're weird.”

"......"

He's a little annoying.

'I'll hit you with candy while pretending it was a mistake.'

I thought about it, but I remembered about my goal and became calm.

'I desperately need the help of this bad guy if I don't want to die miserably.'

I need to build a good relationship with him.

In my past life, I was inexperienced so the results were not good, this time I had the advantage.

I thought to myself as I jumped into his arms.

"Dyuke, terimaw kawsih to his guardianship." (Duke, thanks for the candy.)

The Duke was surprised but then he started smiling.

After the bread incident, it was a peaceful day.

The only thing that happened was when Lea found out that she had forgotten to give me the seven candies Duke had given me.

But today is different. I've been dressed with a waiter's hand since morning. It was a big kids dress.

Besides, I wore lace socks that got to my calves, shiny shoes and they also tied ribbons in my hair.

"Come, let's see how comfortable it is. Take a walk, little lady."

As I struggled to walk, the servants shouted, "Whoa!"

Dubbede's waitresses aren't as bad as Vallua's waitress, but they keep making me nervous. However, in order for me to live comfortably, the hospitality of the maid was very important. As soon as I got here, I walked towards the waiter.

“Tempat Lwinda!” (Linda di sini!)

“Oho, you saw me last night. Are you happy to see me?"

“This is secret....lingda is my favorite.” (Secret...... Linda is my favorite.)

First of all, I will conquer the heart of a servant.

"Here, I'll give you the guardianship." (This. I'll give you some candy.)

"Why did you just give me this candy?"

“Rawhaswia (Secret... because I like Dalia the most.).

I have the man in charge of that snack.

“If Ywuni sawkit, I am sad..” (If Yuni is sick, I am sad.).

"God..."

“It's sweet... Yuni is my favorite.” (Consecutive... Yuni is my favorite.)

I have won the heart of the person in charge of my diary.

'Now, even if I was hated by my family like back in Vallua, the servants would secretly spoil me.'

When I saw the servant who adored me, I was proud to think of all the hardships I had suffered.

'But why am I dressed like this today?'

I asked Lea, who was smiling lovingly at me.

"Where am I going?" (Where am I going?)

“You will attend the meeting today. Sir said he'd introduce you to the followers. ”

'followers?'

I saw some of them, but they were not officially introduced to me. I think he won't have to introduce me if I'm going back to the capital soon.

So then...

'He will definitely keep me here long enough!'

I followed the waiter with a shout of joy in my heart.

But there are people in the hallway I've never seen before. Lea answered me as I looked at her.

"They're kids who have to be sponsored."

Aha, there should be a sponsored child selection on the agenda of today's meeting.
