Lady Invincible

Chapter 44

The moment my voice passed over the air, Ricardo stood up.

"Because it would be better for you to hide behind your father's shadow like that."

His head slanted to look at me.

Ricardo's face was stiff and distorted.

He seemed to feel humiliation and anger at the same time as he was betrayed in front of Gabriel.

It must have been a scene in Ricardo's life that he had never even imagined.

But he couldn't make a loud voice in front of me as before.

"Well, yes, brother."

At that time, Gabriel, who couldn't do this or that, came out from a distance and looked at Ricardo and quickly approached, as if she had hardened her mind.

"Quickly go back inside. Don't bother sister Hillise while she's resting."

Gabriel even pushed Ricardo's back firmly as if to go ahead.

Somehow, yesterday, there was something that she swore by herself in front of me, and it seemed to me that she was doing this to show me how to keep it.

"Gabriel, youㆍㆍㆍ."

Ricardo looked down at Gabriel and couldn't speak.

There was even a slight sense of betrayal in his eyes.

Gabriel was startled.

She whispered to Ricardo.

But her voice was louder than I thought, so I heard everything.

For Gabriel, she may have said it was for Ricardo, but in the end, it was just like asking him to look at my eyes.

Ricardo's mouth clenched.

I drank tea and admired the ridiculous sight in front of me.

Ricardo looked at Gabriel and me with his swaying eyes and finally withdrew quietly.

But turning back and crossing the garden, his fists were painfully clenched.

"Sister! I removed brother from your sight! Now, let's relaxㆍㆍㆍ Oh!"

Not to Ricardo, Gabriel ran to me, shining her eyes, asking for praise.

Then she folded her feet and fell on the grass.

It didn't seem to have been taken deliberately, but Gabriel's figure, who fell in the green grass, was just as pitiful as an actor on the stage.

In a way, that was also a skill.

She didn't get up right away, she groaned a little, pulling her sloppy hair off with her hand.

Her face was revealed by her words with a sad expression among her golden hair shimmering in the sun.

"Sister Hiliseㆍㆍㆍ I think I sprained my ankle."

Gabriel's moist eyes stared at me as if expecting something.

I looked at Gabriel like that and got up in her seat.

"Oh, my sister."

As I walked in front of her fallen Gabriel, she stopped her tone and she looked up at me.

I leaned slightly and reached out my hand.

Then Gabriel made a touching expression.

"Sister, thank youㆍㆍㆍㆍ"

But instead of grabbing Gabriel's shy hand, I picked up the envelope that had fallen in front of her.

Gabriel, who had been smacking in vain, made a stupid look.
