Chapter 99: Wave of Jealousy

Chapter 99 – Wave of Jealousy

As she drifted on a boat in the middle of a sea of emotions, this boat was so small and insignificant that it could break anytime. She was just looking up at the sky and being mistaken. Countless times she had sniffed the salty smell of the sea with the tip of her nose but had hinted that it was not.

This was land.

Even while watching the waves of jealousy soaring high, she hoped it was just a mountain.

This was not the sea.

The heart that loved him wouldn't have filled her this much.

* * *

“Bella, say hello. This is…”

“I know, too.”

Bella replied coldly.

It wasn’t that ‘I don't like Rosanne because she's a heavenly being.’

She just hated Rosanne because she was the one Kiehl loved. If Shuria Cruelle hated Rosanne because she was greedy for her position, then Bella hated this person because she was greedy for the position, too.

Kiehl, who could feel the emotions Bella was feeling, gazed at her a little blankly. He didn't know how to define it. Bella was enveloped in anger that seemed like it would end only when someone was killed.

Meanwhile, Jenkins sneered as Bella's short answer turned the atmosphere sour.

“Anyway, this is the Miss’ temperament. Miss Rosanne must have had a lot of trouble because you shared the same room as the Miss.”

Rosanne shook her hands, and her face blushed.

“N, no! How good Lady Bella has been to me.”

She knew that she wasn't good to all of them except Rosanne. Bella looked down at Rosanne, who twitched her hands.

“…Did I?”

“Lady Bella gave me a cactus as a gift.”

“….”

“The buds have already opened. I think the flowers will bloom soon!”

Hearing that, Bella laughed.

“It’s hard to raise. Well done.”

“I just… did as Lady Bella told me.”

She only mentioned that there were instructions for growing it under the pot.

‘…She’s someone who can do anything.’

Bella didn't want to stay there any longer. She smiled and congratulated Rosanne.

“Yes, I will support you in the future. Then, I'm going.”

“Ah…! Yes!”

Rosanne nodded her head, her eyes twinkling.

“Wait, Bella…”

Even though Kiehl tried to hold onto her, Bella said not to let anyone follow.

“It’s too hot, I need to go wash up.”

“Oh! Then I will come, too!”

“No. Don't follow me.”

At those words, The demons averted their eyes at Bella's cold remarks and cleared their throats.

“It seems like she was still on her nerves because of what happened yesterday, right?”

“I think so, too.”

Kiehl asked, letting out a sigh.

“What happened?”

When they saw Rosanne next to him and spared their words, Rio noticed it and took her away.

“Rosanne, would you like to practice for the second contest with me?”

“Oh. Good.”

As soon as Rosanne was far away, the demons hurried to tell Kiehl.

“She summoned Mr. Zanbar yesterday.”

As usual, Kiehl was a bit suspicious because there was Zanbar, who had been to the mansion.

‘I'm sure the safe is empty?’

Since he deliberately taught Zanbar how to use a compass differently, he wouldn't have arrived at the mansion already.

‘…Or was it because the order of the contest was changed differently from the novel?’

However, the demons’ words were more embarrassing.

“Mr. Zanbar brought a body. From then on, Miss got a little nervous….”

“…What did he bring?”

…To this imperial palace… what?

“Human arms, it’s okay. We handled it well.”

“Young Master! I cleaned it up the hardest!”

* * *

Meanwhile, Rosanne tilted her head as she glanced at the demons.

“What happened to lady Bella yesterday?”

No matter what it was, to the naive Rosanne, the daily life of demons was extraordinary, so Rio openly turned the subject around.

“I heard that when flowers bloom on a cactus, wishes come true.”

Rosanne blushed more and more.

“Yes. I hope my wish comes true.”

Rio shook his head and let out a sigh. It was too obvious without looking. Obviously, she had wished all the best with Kiehl.

“Do you still like Kiehl?”

“…Yes?”

Rosanne was taken aback by the sudden question, and her blushing face turned even redder.

“Do I… show that much?”

Looking at her, Rio thought of her as a ‘really easy-to-know person.’ Her feelings show like that. Not hidden, just like a child. And yet, at the same time, she was a ‘truly unknown person.’

Even when they were traveling together, he couldn't figure out why she liked Kiehl when he was so impregnable. He didn't understand that after Kiehl's using her like that, and yet she could still like him.

“Mister Ian knows it, too.”

“Is that the person you said you saved?”

“Ah, what do you mean I saved him? If you say that, you think I'm great.”

Rosanne reached out and shook her hands.

He didn’t know who Ian was, the guards were gathering information about the Crown Princess contest through him. Even though he tried to figure out his identity, he only had common information from what Rosanne told him. Even the guards tended to keep their mouths shut about him.

Rio felt sorry for the naive Rosanne.

‘…There are only people around her who want to use her.’

Kiehl and the person named Ian… even Bella didn’t seem to like her.

Rio laughed a little bitterly. What was so important about such a heart that everyone was risking their lives like that?

They just need to turn around a little bit.

* * *

While reading the novel, Bella always felt that Rosanne and Shuria contrasted like light and shadow. That was why she, a demon, was stubborn because she hated Rosanne, who was like a light.

‘…Yes. That's why I like Kiehl.’

Still, she wondered what she had to do with it.

The main character of this novel was not her.

She thought about what role she should play by Kiehl's side. She must have been his childhood benefactor and only caused trouble with the demons.

‘But it's okay to like it.'

If she weren’t greedy, she wouldn't get hurt.

‘Yes, this heart is like budae jjigae… I want to eat it, I want to eat it again. I love it so much. I don't want budae jjigae to like me… What am I saying now?’

How could budae jjigae and a person be the same?

‘Ha… I don't know! Just turn it, turn it!’

Maybe she knew that she had to give up, so she had been subconsciously covering it up.

Since then, Bella has been avoiding Kiehl and Rosanne as much as possible until this heart turned. Fortunately for her, the ladies did not gather together until the second contest. Besides, most of the group who followed her had failed the first contest, and there were no ladies who bothered her.

Although there were, of course, ladies who occasionally asked for dating advice, whenever that happened, Bella spoke straight.

“Just break up.”

“There are many good people in the world.”

“Don’t get too attached to just one.”

Spitting out words that bounced back like a mirror, she bitterly shut and shut her heart.

However…

“Isn’t Lady Bella the most likely candidate?”

Somehow, after another knife-like relationship counseling, her followers only increased.

“I also fell in love with what Lady Bella did during the debate before.”

“Haha.”

Their purpose was clear.

“If Lady Bella becomes the Crown Princess, who will you choose as the lady-in-waiting?”

Whoever became the Crown Princess, would choose a lady-in-waiting later, and they seemed to have a lot of thoughts about it.

‘Guys, I think you lined up on the wrong spot…’

…Especially since there was someone who was on the wrong line.

“I… If I fail, can I work as Lady Bella’s lady-in-waiting?”

It was the shy Rosanne with light pink hair.

Rosanne, who was at the back, ran to the front first and asked Bella.

“…What about Miss Rosanne?”

While it had been a long time since she had seen Rosanne, Bella wasn’t as angry as before.

“I… I think I will probably fail at the second contest.”

“Ah…”

Rather, she felt threatened.

‘Come to think of it… the order of the contest has been reversed.’

If the order was reversed, it might be difficult for Rosanne to pass.

* * *

Bella thought about it for a long time, but on the moonlit night, she secretly ran to Kiehl's room.

‘Ha… Do I have to connect their love now?'

Contrary to her mind, this novel should flow as well as the original. Transforming into a cat, she knocked on the window as Kiehl opened the door with his eyes wide open as if he hadn't thought this was going to happen.

“…Bella.”

“Kiehl, are you busy?”

He shook his head.

“Bella is always welcome.”

How could the main character have such a pretty heart?

“What happened? Did you come because you missed me?”

She gazed at Kiehl's face for a while at those words.

‘If that's the reason, I'd be happy too…’

There was about a week left until the contest. In the meantime, she intended to go to the mansion and get the novel, that was all she could do now.

“I have somewhere to go, so I want you to return my heart.”

“Ah…”

Bella went inside and turned into a human.

“Are your wounds okay? It's been quite a while.”

“Well. I don't know.”

“Why don’t you know, it’s your body.”

Kiehl sat slowly on the window sill and turned his head away.

“Isn’t this something only Iwer can take out?”

If it was just forcing to pull it out, Bella could do it as well.

“I’ll check the wounds and summon Iwer.”

“….”

“Take it off.”

He turned his head again and said playfully.

“No.”

Kiehl's figure, with his back to the moonlight, looked somewhat lonely. Still, Bella just reached for his top button.

‘…I have to check it somehow.’

Without the slightest movement of any expression, she walked up to him and grabbed his first button.

‘To the mansion as soon as possible…’

There was a click, and the button came undone. As the button to his collar unbuttoned, it revealed Kiehl’s white nape.

“Bella.”

Hearing his call, Bella briefly raised her eyes to meet Kiehl's. She had to stop all her movements for a moment.

‘Ah…’

Just like when he was young, his eyes looking up at her always captivated her, even though they seemed tender. Before she knew it, his slender hand supporting her waist gave her goosebumps. This position, this distance… it reminded her of a dream she was trying to forget.

— “I love you.”

Bella bit her dry lips lightly.

How could her heart die? It was such an immature idea for her to say that she would connect the two of them.

When the one button became two, then three.

At that time, her greed will grow out of control. All the skinship that she had taken for granted since she was young will now be rewritten in the name of desire. One day, it would change in the name of jealousy… destroying all the relationships they had built.
