Chapter 5
Chapter 5: You are not an Employee
Looking at the water that had become subtle brown, she went up to the bed with a smile and carefully poured water into the boy’s mouth . She almost put it in, she thought, but he coughed violently and opened his eyes .
“Hey?”
She was startled and jumped down from the bed and flattened . He coughed for a long time and hesitated, then calmed again .
The eyes were red .
Beautiful Ruby Red that can’t be forgotten .
The peacock had just such eyes .
‘Is he a relative…… ?’
She lay up on the carpet thinking about it . She carefully pulled the cloth that had fallen beside the pillow, put it on the plate and made it cold again and placed it on the forehead . She was nervous that if he would get up like before, but fortunately he didn’t wake up .
‘Does antipyretic drugs contain sleeping pills?’
Because cold medicine was sleepy .
By the time it was eating dinner, his breathing was so comfortable that she laughed satisfactorily and returned to her room .
She ate dinner, ate milk and cookies, and went to bed, and still woke up at dark dawn .
Killing her footsteps, she got out of bed, carefully opened the door, and exiting the hallway and headed back to the room .
“Why am I so bothered?”
Tilting her head, she ran silently through the dark corridor . “Why does he bother me so much?”
‘I feel like I’ve become useful . ’
She made a conclusion and opened the door carefully . Everyone here is insensitive or kind to her, but it must be because of the Duke’s orders . The treatment of her could have changed completely the next day . And there’s nothing she can do with such treatment .
‘But this is different . ’
Because I’m helping someone voluntarily . As I approached the bed quietly, the plate and the cloth were intact .
‘Is no one coming in or out of this room?’
As she wondered, she reached out and tried to touch his sleeping forehead, but he snatched her wrist like lightning and pressed it down .
“I told no one to come-”
As he growled, he stopped talking . Her broken arm hurt, so tears came out .

“Oh, it hurts . ”
“Ah?”
He slowly loosened his arms but did not let go of her wrists .
“Who are you? Why did you disobey my orders?”
“I, I, uh… . ”
“I didn’t know if it was okay to reveal my identity . It gave strength to the hand he held . ”
“Ugh!”
“Who are you?”
“Eh, it’s Estel .
“Who is that?”
At the remark she opened her mouth and said:
“Someone who doesn’t have to follow your orders . ”
“No one in this mansion can disobey my orders . ”

“I am… … I have…… . I am not an employee . ”
After a small protest, he let go of her wrist . His red eyes shone in the dark .
“Not an employee…… . ”
As he thought he muttered, and Estel hurriedly moved away from him and ran back . She ran through the dark corridor, trembling, afraid that he would grab her or shout, but there was no sound .
She ran to her room, breathing heavily and shoved into the bed, she was trembling . Even right now, the whole mansion was lit up and seemed to find her .
Only the sound of her breath was heard inside the blanket, but even when she listened, there was no commotion .
“Are you okay?”
She thought she couldn’t sleep because she was nervous, but she fell asleep in a while .
The next day, Annie’s gentle hands and voice woke her up, She changed her clothes and said:
“Miss . ”
“What?”
“There is also a young lady’s brother in the mansion . ”

The words hardened her heart .
“Brother?”
“I’m your only brother . But the Duke hasn’t officially introduced him yet, so it might be better to keep a distance for the time being . ”
“Oh, brother?”
When asked again, Annie nodded and buttoned her back .
“Then, is there a wife too?”
Annie paused at the remark and said:
“No, she died when you were younger . ”
“Ok…”
So the boy she saw last night was not a relative, but a duke’s son . Suddenly, she felt like her strength was slipping out of her body .
‘What do we do?’
‘Should I go and apologize?’
‘But it’s true that you’re not an employee . ’
