When The Count’s Illegitimate Daughter Gets Married

Chapter 13

In the meantime, Ian, who had a wound, jumped lightly through the window and came inside.

The villa was quiet again.

Just like when they used to spend their time in silence before.

But, there was no silence as deafening as this time.

“…..”

“…..”

Biting her lips, Larrite wondered how she could get out of this embarrassing situation.

Even if it has been a while since they started to live together, Ian could notice such a small change in her expression.

Somehow, he spoke in order to break the silence.

“You….don’t seem to like cats.”

“…No, actually I like them…”

It became even more awkward.

“Oh, so you like cats.”

“Yeah.”

“Was there a cat passing by? I didn’t see it.”

“Sometimes, it does…”

Their conversation was meaningless.

Laritte decided to put the knife back to its original place.

The blade strangely made a grinding sound as she put it back on the storage rack with no expression on her face.

Krrr

‘Oh, come on.’

She could feel the gaze of Ian from behind her. Turning her head, she peeked, clutching the kitchen counter.

Ian quickly turned his face away from her to avoid getting caught…

But, Larrite was sure that he was looking at her.

“…..”

“…..”

Both of them tried to break the silence but failed every time.

‘Come to think of it, there was something I couldn’t say to him when someone suddenly knocked on the door. The name.’

She thought, feeling chills all over her spine.

“…You know.”

Ian, who was staring at the wall, turned his head towards her in an instant.

Larrite tried to say nothing but…
