I Will Disappear, Grand Duke | LK Adaptation

"Don't worry. This mind will be cleared up soon."

Jimin raised his labored face and looked at his master.

He wasn't expecting anything from her in the first place. It was good enough that he could just be by her side.

"I am concerned about the anguish she's going through."

Matheus's heavy voice descended. Jimin just kept his lips shut.

"For now, just think that Lalisa is safe. If she needs our help, she will definitely contact here."

As if Matheus evoked, he changed the direction of the conversation. There was a depth that could not be hidden in the words that followed.

"The only thing I am worried about is...her health."

Currently, Lalisa's condition was very precarious.

For some reason, a significant amount of her power returned to him.

He could feel it. Because the holy power in her heart was originally his.

It seemed like she used her power for some reason. Or it was just time for the lights to go out.

Since she survived under that cliff, her vitality was like a burning embers. It was weak enough to be easily extinguished by even the slightest rain and wind... Now he wasn't quite sure when and how the rain and wind would blow her out completely.

"Matheus, I will go to the estate where Gabrielle and the children are."

While Matteus was worried, Jimin calmly asked for permission. He was planning to go there and check their safety in person.

And if possible, he also wanted to find out where Lalisa was.

Matheus held Jimin's shoulder lightly with his hand.

"Yes, be careful."

At that moment, Jimin, who slightly curved his lips, nodded helplessly.

Winter was long over. The full spring has arrived.

Lalisa, who had not been outside her for a while, went for her first daytime walk after coming here.

She walked for a while along the promenade in front of the villa. With each step she took, the pleasant sound of the rustling grass was pleasantly heard.

As the day dawned, the wide fields that had been buried in the snow were also filled with green.

It was the warmth of spring that melted Lalisa's frozen heart, even for a brief moment. Lalisa briefly looked back on her past two months.

During those long days, Jungkook didn't ask her for anything.

He didn't even try to take her to his castle, and he didn't force anything, not even the slightest. Indeed, as if to prove his words that being by her side was all he wanted. He was also reluctant to see her, and he never came to visit her as meaningless as before.

Instead, at night, he would disappear after watching her sleep for a long time.

When Lalisa woke up from time to time with a hand caressing her cheek, she would hear him murmured in a quiet voice.

She was asleep, so she didn't understand what he was saying.

It was a series of unfamiliar behavior that she couldn't understand and didn't want to understand.

Lalisa shook her head slightly, clearing the thoughts from her head.

At that time, Melissa, who had been following her, suddenly spoke to her.
