Chapter 60

The silent mansion regained its owner.

The servants returned to their old lively state as if they had never seen Ian.

However, there was a noticeable change.

The maids could not help but chat about it.

“Do you know what happened?”

One of the housemaids said, putting the laundry in a wooden basket.

She replied when her partner glanced at her with a confused look on her face,

“His Lordship seems to be behaving strangely these days, do you know the reason?”

They walked down to the laundry, each with a basket in their hands.

The second maid, who understood her words, giggled when she couldn’t hold back her laughter.

“Of course I know. I can say it just by looking at him for 10 seconds. My my, can’t you?”

She said in between her giggles.

“My Lord is in love with My Lady!”

It had been a few days since the employees tried to hold their laughter whenever they spotted Ian.

This was because he was acting very protective around Laritte.

It was like peeking a glance at one’s first love.

Ian realized how fragile Laritte was after he almost attacked her with his sword. She could have died even if he didn’t have big arms. It was too harsh for her.

It happened even today when Laritte and Ian sat together in the garden, enjoying some delicacies.

Ian had to stop her when she was about to munch on a cookie.

“Wait!”

He cut the cookie in half and checked if there was anything that could get caught in her throat.

The maids standing behind the couple exchanged smiles as they witnessed his overprotective side again.

Unaware of that, Laritte stared at him.

“Ian, you shouldn’t pick while eating.”
“…….Oh yeah, is that so?”

She seemed to have misunderstood his point.

He was worried about her safety. As if he loved her.

‘No, I don’t do such embarrassing things!’
