I Will Disappear, Grand Duke | LK Adaptation

61

Jimin, who left for Richel's estate, was reunited with Gabrielle in a mansion there.

After confirming that both the children and Gabrielle were unharmed, he was able to relax.

They were living comfortably. The mansion was spacious, and there were helpers.

He thought they would have simply found a place to live, but the Grand Duke seemed to be more attentive to their convenience than expected.

"Jimin. Is it true that the person who helped us was Lalisa's husband... ?"

Gabrielle whispered in a low voice. She was very quick-witted as she got older.

Jimin nodded his head with a complicated expression.

"... Yes, I think so."

"Yes."

Gabrielle spoke with a worried look on her face.

"Since he's treating us so generously, you must believe that he's also taking good care of Lalisa."

"... "

"However, her health is what I'm most worried about."

Jimin nodded his head with a grim expression.

If her mind was uncomfortable, her body would also be uncomfortable. So, he hoped she was at ease there.

'... It might be difficult.'

Jimin sighed and lifted his lips.

"Gabrielle, if you happen to know Yulia's location, please send me a message."

"Okay, don't worry and go back. I'll write you a letter."

There was nothing Jimin could do for now. He just has to wait for Lalisa to contact him first.

At this time, Jimin was so miserable because he felt incompetent.

At the same time, He felt a sense of shame that filled a part of his heart.

Feelings that should have been enough just to worry about Lalisa were mixed with something that was not at all pleasant.

He was jealous lest she be shaken by the Grand Duke. He was afraid and anxious that she would never come back.

Of course, Lalisa could not have wanted to stay with the Grand Duke now.

It must be so, but he couldn't figure out why he had such a vague feeling.

Jimin, who came out of the mansion, briefly captured the world in spring.

Even on such a beautiful day, his heart was just hopeless.

He missed the days walking with Lalisa. The times when they laughed and talked about little things in the evening breeze at the monastery.

His heart throbbed greatly. Jimin took a deep breath and lowered his gaze.

***

For a while, Lalisa had been living with chaotic emotions.

She made up her mind to leave this place somehow, but her firmness kept crumbling down for some reason.

Lalisa, who was walking on the plain, looked at the distant forest.

If running for a long time along that forest, she would see a steep mountain foot. If she went down there, she would find a road leading to the village.

The way to escape has already been memorized. If she went down the mountain entrance with the excuse of going out, maybe she could run away.

However....
