From the start, Kiel had been trying to impress Bella.
Sometimes, he would secretly watch Bella in her study.
He even got a pretty well-educated teacher named Jenkins. It was as if Jenkins knew everything.
However, it was strange that Bella liked him even though he didn’t try very hard.
‘How come you approach me with benevolence in your expression?’
“Are you hurt? I’ll blow on the wound.”
Bella warmed him up with a gentle breath.
In the novel, Kiel didn’t remember his childhood very well.
He only described it as “I’ve been through a lot.”
It was unlikely that letting him experience a few fragmentary and important events would interfere with his love life with Rosanna.
However, a few days later, Bella began to notice something strange.
She tried to change the interior because any furniture in the mansion wouldn’t go away.
“I’m sure I left this there.”
She felt like the furniture was constantly changing.
Besides, the strangest thing was Kiel.
“Jenkins. Is Kiel having a hard time studying?”
“No, he loves it.”
‘What could be the problem?’
“Why don’t you let Kiel work while I’m not watching?”
“No way.”
Bella was watching Jenkins prepare the meal.
They were all plain ingredients and plain food.
“Do you put any poison in Kiel’s rice?”
Jenkins frowned as soon as he heard it and was dumbfounded. “Even if I’m half evil, I won’t do that.”
“He’s half evil, so I don’t think he can poison,” Zhanbar added. Bella couldn’t tell whether he was defending or mocking Jenkins.
“Zhanbar, you can sense poison, can’t you?”
“I can sense it by eating it.”
So, at every meal, she told Zhanbar to try all the foods before letting Kiel eat them.
‘Strange.’
Why was Kiel the only one who ate the same thing?
“Miss, If you look at him like that, I don’t think he’ll be able to eat.”
Bella stared at Kiel eating and turned her eyes to Jenkins.
When Zhanbar was about to wash the dishes after the meal, Kiel hurried to the sink.
“I’ll do it,” Bella said.
Bella wanted to stop Kiel, but once she watched, she asked. However, in the end, she could only watch.
“Kiel seems to be feeling uncomfortable somewhere, doesn’t he?” she whispered to Jenkins.
“I think I’d be comfortable as well if you were looking at me like that.”
“Was it too obvious?”
“That’s not a question, is it?”
Bella was so absorbed in the arrangement of the novel that she didn’t even know the furniture was coming into the mansion that she felt uncomfortable because she seemed to have left Kiel alone.
Was life here still unstable? He didn’t have to wash the dishes.
Suddenly…
A plate clattered to the ground.
Kiel looked up, embarrassed. “I didn’t do it…”
“You’re lying again. I like how shameless you are,” Zhanbar said.
His words seemed to be sarcastic, but his expression was indeed content.
Kiel looked into Bella’s eyes, bit his lips, and lowered his head.
“Sorry. I’m sorry,”
Bella was a little surprised.
“Is there something weird?”
“It’s weird. Every time you say you’ll help, you make an accident like this.”
“No. Look carefully, you idiots.” Bella stood up and approached Kiel. “I’ve been looking at him since a while ago, and Kiel was turning around like this. The washed dishes are on the left.”
Bella stood behind Kiel, who was on the chair.
“Unless Kiel throws his plate back like this, he can’t fall on that floor. I’ve been watching.”
Bella took Kiel by both sides and turned him around.
“So Kiel didn’t do anything wrong.”
Kiel’s eyes were red.
“…Kiel?” Bella hugged Kiel in a daze.
With one hand, she quietly patted his back.
“What’s wrong?” Kiel was quietly weeping in Bella’s arms.
From the first day of his visit to the mansion, he had been having nightmares that he would be thrown out of here.
Since then, he had tried to do well, but strangely enough, accidents continued around him.
It was unfair, but he was the only one at the scene, so I didn’t have anything to say even if we were criminals.
“Bella, do you believe me?”
Listening to his words, Bella felt her anger rise.
“Hey! How badly did you guys bully him?”
“I never.”
“You don’t even know the principle of innocent until proven guilty?”
“Is that so?”
“Kiel said he didn’t. You don’t admit to the charges, and you’re driving without real proof?”
Kiel breathed out a long breath and hugged Bella tightly.
Bella glared at Zhanbar and Jenkins with red eyes.
“How dare you accuse him?!”
“Why can’t we?”
“Who else would have broken the dish if not the kid?”
Bella hugged Kiel even harder.
“From what I see…” Bella pointed at the plate that fell on the floor with her chin. “It’s not worth getting angry over.”
Bella felt her heart ache as she watched Kiel cry.
Even in the novel, Kiel was not a character who talked about his feelings.
His uncle sold him, so of course, he’d be wary of others.’
Kiel’s persistent apology weighed on my mind.
“It’s not my fault, but…”
Bella thought about how to comfort a crying child.
‘Yes, let’s play. Let’s play.’
If we do something fun and good together, we can have a comfortable childhood without being conscious of each other.
“Come on! Everybody out in the garden!”
Bella first thought of playing ball.
If Kiel played wildly, he’d be sure to brighten up.
“Come on. You can kick this in there and put it in there.”
But there was something Bella overlooked.
“Zhanbar, you can’t hold it with your hands! Use your feet!”
Zhanbar didn’t even know the rules and didn’t think of kicking the ball.
“Change it, change it. It’s a game where you throw, and you get each other. All right?”
Again, this time, Zhanbar was the problem.
Jenkins, who received the ball, also threw it so hard that it sounded like a revolution.
We eventually threw the ball to each other without Zhanbar.
There was an unexpected problem again this time.
Bonk!
Kiel didn’t even think of getting the ball. He just got hit.
‘Kiel doesn’t seem to like being active.’
Looking at Kiel, who only looks at the ball after being hit, Bella straightened her neck and changed her strategy.
“Kiel! Do you want me to show you something funny?”
Jenkins sighed, tired of picking up all the balls Kiel was looking at.
“Would you like to see some magic?”
“Do you know how to use magic, Miss? Did you sign a contract?”
“Be quiet. I have to concentrate,”
Only by signing a contract with a human could the devil race be drawn and used in the human world.
The devil’s summoning was easy in the first place because it was the magic of the demon world.
‘Simple magic would be fine, wouldn’t it?’ It’s a magic that makes the scent of flowers strong.’
Bella could do it even if there were restrictions.
“I’ll show you something pretty.”
‘You’ll feel at ease when you see pretty and good things.’
Bella closed her eyes, imagining countless butterflies flying in the scent and playing beautifully.
Air wrapped around her fingertips and seemed to attract the butterflies.
“Ah! What is this!”
‘I thought of butterflies, but these are bees!’
“Ah! Kiel, get away! Avoid it!”
Bella was like a witch. The results of her magic were gloomy.
That night, Bella rolled in bed, feeling a little depressed.
‘I guess I’m the best at childcare.’
Also, she could hear her police chief’s voice.
“Kim Hong-yeon. Stay still, and you’ll be in the middle!”
She thought about it carefully this time. Suddenly…
Knock. Knock.
Bella stood up and opened the door without much thought.
Kiel, whose blond hair was glittering in the light of the corridor, stood tightly holding a pillow as big as his body.
He clasped the pillow with his hand. His pajamas were large enough to cover his entire body, and he bowed his head with a blush.
“C-can I sleep with you?”
This was going to give her a heart attack.
“Then, shall we go to your room?”
Kiel seemed a little hesitant and nodded.
The two went to Kiel’s room together, and as soon as Kiel opened the door, he went up to the bed and buried his face in the pillow, perhaps ashamed.
Bella was proud to think that Kiel opened his heart because he had been having fun all day today.
“Do you want me to tell you a funny story?”
Bella lied down by Kiel’s side, held his hand, and began her story.
It was not a funny story, but a boring story, and before it was over, Kiel was sleeping.
‘Good night.’
Bella fell asleep, looking at each of Kiel’s long eyelashes.
As the night grew cold, Bella felt like she was lying on a bed of ice.
“Ugh, it’s cold.”
She tossed and turned, and then she went to sleep in the cold wind.
Bella groped for Kiel with her hand to keep him warm.
‘…Kiel?’
Bella opened her eyes because of the strange feeling.
