Dying As Guard, Awakening As Bride のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 21 - チャプター 30

“Do you have feelings for me?” Victoria asked Martin.The mere question caused Martin to fall silent. If Victoria's intention was to silence him, she had achieved it.A tense silence lingered between them as they locked eyes. Eventually, Victoria was the one to break the silence."Do you believe your interest in me only sparked because I changed so much after losing my memories? Or have you developed feelings for me?" she inquired once more.Martin's response this time was a simple, "No."‘As expected,’ Victoria said to herself before chuckling bitterly. “Same here,” she lied. “I have no feelings for you. The conversation ended.”"You're mistaken. It's because your question is flawed. I know small details about you even when you had your memories. How can I develop feelings for someone I barely know?"Victoria looked down and replied, "That's it. So...""But I want to get to know you."She fell silent and gazed at him, realizing he wasn't joking.She couldn't comprehend his words. It

As much as possible, Victoria doesn't want to attend the family outing just to meet with the mysterious Gray Thompson.'I don't want to meet Martin, Zoe, or Margaux,' she said to herself with a sigh.So, if there's another way for her to see Gray Thompson, she would do it before the outing.["Go to Two Thumbs Up Beer Bar. I heard Gray Thompson usually visits that place."] Information was sent by Hunter.Thanks to Hunter, Victoria got some information about Gray. So, she attempted to enter the bar in just a shirt and pants. However, the bouncer stopped her at the door."You can't go in, Miss," he said.Confused, Victoria asked, "Why not?""Dress code," he replied, gesturing to the other girls entering.Victoria glanced at the other girls and was taken aback. They were all dressed provocatively, unlike her usual style.Realizing she needed to blend in to get inside, Victoria reluctantly went to a mall and bought a dress similar to what the other girls were wearing. She made sure to conc

Outside the hotel, Gray and Victoria were seen sitting on the bench.Gray was crouching down, holding his aching head. While Victoria looked at him, feeling the second-hand embarrassment.Just a moment ago, Gray's towel slipped downward, and Victoria saw his thing.Victoria looked at Gray. She extended her hand and tapped his back as if consoling him.In an instant, Gray glared at her and said, "Why are you patting my back? Is that some sort of comforting me? If you're attempting to console me, then patting my back won't have any effect." He was teary when he continued, "YOU SAW EVERYTHING IN ME. DAMN IT!" Victoria pulled her hand away from him. She was thinking so hard about how to comfort Gray. Then, she thought of an idea."Don't worry," she said. "It's not like my first time seeing that. I used to see those in the past."Gray stopped and looked at her with widened eyes. "What?" He gasped and covered his mouth. "Are you that kind of woman?"With a frown, she said, "No. I never ha

On an island owned by the Cadell family, there stood a spacious cabin by a serene lake. It was meticulously maintained to provide comfort and tranquility to its visitors.Today, the Cadell and Red families are set to enjoy a day out together. The first to arrive at the cabin was Margaux Cadell, the head of the Cadell family."Make sure you bring only the freshest ingredients for cooking, got it?" Margaux instructed the staff she had hired to serve the two wealthiest families in the country."There can be no mistakes," Margaux vowed to herself. The Red family was a crucial ally, and she was determined not to jeopardize the relationship that had been established by their ancestors.The only issue was the unsettling rumor that her grandson was now chasing Victoria Red, his fiancée."Even though I wanted to gain Red's favor, I need to ensure that spoiled brat understands her place."In the past, Victoria was obedient to Margaux because she wanted to be a dutiful grandaughter-in-law. Howev

'What was your motive for deceiving me?''What were you trying to achieve by lying?''How did you feel knowing that you made me look foolish?''I suppose you had a good time, didn't you?'Victoria had a multitude of questions for Gray as they sat facing each other at the table. If only they were alone, she would have already asked those questions. However, due to the presence of other people, she couldn't do so. Instead, she resorted to imagining kicking Gray's butt ten times.Thanks to Gray, Victoria seemed to have completely forgotten about Martin, Zoe, and everyone else on the trip. Her attention was solely fixed on Gray, who appeared to be enjoying his meal.Gray took a small bite of shrimp and made a face. He quickly wiped his mouth with a napkin.'Doesn't he like it?' Victoria thought to herself.He then tried another dish, and his expression changed to a smile.'Ah, now he enjoys it,' she realized.Victoria remembered that Gray was a chef, so he had to have high standards when
