Chapter 47 – Part 2
I quickly took Kuhn and climbed back on the bed, and pretended to go inside the blanket. I hurriedly checked to see if the windows were closed and didn’t forget to take a look around. I was running out of breath when I went inside the blanket, but I tightly closed my eyes, thinking that I should hold on for a moment.
[Um, but I don’t think it’s her…]
“Shh!”
I quickly reached out my hand and continued to cover Kuhn’s snout. At the same time, there was a squeak and the door opened.
‘Ack, she’s inside.’
I held Kuhn in my arms and held my breath. But to make Kuhn not feel stuffy, I slightly lifted my buttocks to create a space.
The low sound of the footsteps drew closer. That’s weird. I hardly heard Pihne’s footsteps, or she hardly made any sound at all.
Soon, the footsteps stopped, and the surrounding became quiet—for a long time at that. I was curious because I didn’t hear the sound of the person coming out, and focused my hearing as much as I could. I didn’t have the courage to lift the blanket and check my opponent.
It got a bit uncomfortable
I was in a very uncomfortable position, so my body felt stiff. I couldn’t do this anymore. I would slowly twist my body and pretend that I was sleep talking.
But the moment I pushed Kuhn aside and tried to gently lower my buttocks on the side, lying down, “I know you’re not asleep yet,” a heavy bass voice rang in my ears.
‘Ugh, it’s Daddy.’
It wasn’t Pihne. Realizing that the strategy had failed, I gently lowered my raised buttocks.
(T/N: I don’t know, but imagining about it, Mariette is so cuute~~)
Cullen stayed inside his office until late today. There were many things he had to do in advance in order to consolidate Mariette’s position. Moreover, due to this incident, he was busy organizing things he had neglected one by one while he was looking for his lover. Among them was the action to take against Viscount Rochelle.
He was in fact stealing something he could overlook. But why? He couldn’t stand the sight of salt scattered on other people’s hands when he thought that it would be his child’s soon.
The Descartes estate would be enough right now that she was still a child, but he wanted to give her greater wealth and territory than now when she grew up later.
Shaking off all his thoughts as he finished his work, it was getting close to midnight. He suddenly wanted to see his daughter.
‘She must have already fallen asleep.’
He heard that children slept early. Whenever Dante had spare time, he would recite information about childcare to him, so he could learn about it even when he stayed still.
According to the reports he received from Calpihne, to whom he left the child, the child collapsed with a boiling body in the late evening every day. Just how busy was she that she slept as if she had fainted?
Thinking about the child with all the documents down, Cullen eventually got up.
[‘Lady will probably grow up in the blink of an eye. They say all the kids do.’]
[‘You will wonder when they will grow up, but one day you’ll find that they have already grown up. You can’t miss the golden days because they pass like lightning! Do you understand? You can’t miss it.’]
He remembered Dante’s nagging.
Cullen went out of his office. It didn’t take long for him to get to the room where the child was sleeping. He unknowingly held his breath as he carefully turned the doorknob. He was worried that he would wake up the child. For a moment, he had the urge to burst out laughing as he thought what he was doing was ridiculous.
He heard that when he was informed of a lie, he beheaded people without hesitation, so he unknowingly held his breath lest he disturbed the sleep of the child. But the hand that turned the doorknob was even more careful.
There was a small lamp lit inside the room, perhaps lit by Calpihne for the child. Thanks to this, he could see Mariette without much difficulty.
“…”
Cullen looked at the bulge of the blanket on top of the bed. At first, he thought that the child’s sleeping habits were too noisy. But Cullen soon narrowed his eyes and tilted his head. There was a restless movement under the blanket.
Cullen sat down on the chair, which he had placed near the bed. And then he leaned back against the backrest and looked at the rising bulge under the blanket.
Soon after, there was a movement under the blanket again. He could even hear small, hitched breaths. Cullen shook his head, holding back the laughter that was about to escape his mouth.
Mariette seemed busy with whatever she was doing inside the blanket. Cullen opened his mouth in case she was suffocating inside.
“I know you’re not asleep yet.”
Then the rising bulge in the blanket slowly flattened.
