His Highness’ Secret Accountant (Web Novel) - Chapter 110
Chapter 110
This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml
“Isn’t it ridiculous for the Crown Prince of the Stellen Kingdom to thoughtlessly storm into the place where the princess of a foreign country is staying at, this late at night?”
“That’s right, but…”
The words, ‘You shouldn’t have come in the first place. Why didn’t you come later?’, almost came out of her mouth; but Ayla pushed back what she was about to say as she didn’t hate his sudden visit.
Theon, who spoke bluntly, suddenly pulled the red stool that was put in front of the dressing table and took a seat in front of the bed where Ayla was sitting.
The two people facing each other exchanged glances for quite a long time.
Looking at his gray eyes, her trembling heart seemed to tell her to cross the line over and over again.
‘Employer and employee. Nothing more. He has a fiancée, and he has nothing to do with me. Calm down, Ayla Serdian. Calm down. Please stop palpitating. Stupid heart!!!’
Ayla vigorously shook her head at the prolonged eye contact, as if trying to pull herself together, and opened her tightly closed mouth.
“I don’t know if you know, but Eden is here.”
“?”
Theon, who had been smiling lightly at Ayla’s words, hardened in an instant. It seems he doesn’t like Eden very much.
Theon, who raised his eyebrows and looked at Ayla with cold eyes, got up and headed towards the window.
Looking at his stiff shoulders and rough gestures, she could tell that Theon was quite angry. Although she didn’t know why.
“You couldn’t hold it in for a moment and called him again? I thought you were reasonable enough to make a clear distinction between public and private life, but I guess I overestimated Miss Ayla Serdian.”
“What… Do you mean?”
Ayla asked back at Theon’s words, which seemed to have taken the wrong direction.
He tried to keep his composure, but he couldn’t hide his aggressive voice.
“You must have thought of this as an opportunity and called that foreigner. Dressed like that, and in my mansion. It’s really funny.”
“Aren’t you being too harsh?”
“The one who is harsh is you, not me. You have a tendency to be more impudent than I thought. I must have been a fool for trusting you and entrusting you with such an important task.”
She could see Theon’s lips trembling as he spit out the spiteful words.
He seemed to have clearly misunderstood, but she didn’t want to bother explaining herself to him.
She was equally displeased with this situation.
Although he didn’t say it directly, Theon’s words were filled with nuances of ‘a sly person who lusts after men’.
Ayla clenched her fists at the sense of shame that was rushing in, and her body trembled slightly.
Gently raising her lowered eyelids, Ayla stared at Theon with a firm expression.
“If you’re done talking, can you please leave?”
“Ah, I’m sorry. You were thinking of having a good time and I interrupted you. I came here because I was worried, but I see there was absolutely no need for that. I didn’t expect a reliable knight would come along.”
“…”
“Enjoy your secret meeting and come back. You still have a lot of work left to do. You must have that much sense of responsibility. I hope you don’t disappoint me any longer, Miss Ayla Serdian.”
***
After he finished speaking, Theon threw himself out of the open window while giving her a cold gaze.
The floor wasn’t high; but considering the accusations he made, she didn’t care whether he died or not.
Eventually, clear water droplets rolled down from Ayla’s eyes, who was taking deep breaths with her eyes closed as if trying to calm down.
“Bastard…”
An obviously surprised Orhan came into Theon’s view, who had come down from the window.
Fortunately, there were no other people to be seen except Orhan, who seemed to be circling the area by himself.
“Why is Your Highness here?”
Orhan grabbed Theon, who was trying to ignore him due to his exalted emotions.
“I wanted to check. For a moment.”
“Return to the royal palace immediately. It is dangerous here. Grand Duke Kyle Ermedi must have really liked the Princess that he even sent a guard knight, which almost ruined everything.”
“A guard knight?”
“His name… He said it was Eden. He is so sharp that I had a very hard time.”
Theon’s gray eyes started trembling at Orhan’s whispering voice.
Ah…
He let out a deep sigh as he looked at the gap in the open window.
“Tell me in detail.”
“It is just like I said. Grand Duke Kyle Ermedi made the knight accompany us, saying that the night road was dangerous. Thanks to that, I couldn’t take a break all the way to the mansion and even the carriage had some trouble, so it was really difficult.”
“Ugh. Things got messed up.”
“Grand Duke Kyle Ermedi said he would come here early tomorrow, so I think it would be better if you got out of here quickly. That knight who came with us, Eden… He is not normal. I barely managed to stop him from staying in the room next to the Princess.”
Orhan said, pointing towards the lit room on the other side of the first floor.
Theon let out a deep sigh, ordered Orhan to report the rest through a letter, and then left the mansion.
“It seems like he made a mistake.”
Orhan muttered to himself, looking at Theon’s back as he moved away, and then entered the mansion.
