No way. No way.

An uneasy feeling came up the spine.

"It's different from usual."

"...."

"As the maid said, there must be times when the food I always eat feels different."

Richard calmly put the spoon down and looked at me.

I didn't quite believe what he said.

I was not foolish enough not to notice that he was talking back about the fruit in the food.

I thought it would be ok if I carefully looked at the moment of cooking, but I guess I was wrong.

How did they put it in?

"-Ugh!"

"....!"

Richard, who pretended to be fine, suddenly groaned. I was surprised and opened my eyes wide.

His face was burning red.

Richard's condition didn't look good. He didn't show it, but a cold sweat ran down his face.

"-Are you okay?"

I reached out to wipe the sweat from his forehead. At that moment, a strong force grabbed my wrist.

His hand, holding my wrist, gained strength.

He has never eaten food with poisonous herbs before-.

According to the original, the poisonous herb did not have an effect immediately from the beginning, but only responded when it accumulated steadily.

-Looking at the condition, it seemed that the fruit that the kitchen maid had secretly put in, and that he had been taking for a long time, is now showing its effects.

'But why now-'

I looked at him.

The pain in the wrist held by him felt like nothing, thinking that my neck might fly away if I did something wrong.

"If you come closer- I don't think you can do that."

He gave a low warning, blinking hard as if his vision was dizzy.

Ironically, he held my hand tight as he told me to move away.

Because of that, I couldn't do this or that, and I had no choice but to sit facing him.

Soon his body collapsed.

"Richard!"

I grabbed his body, which was collapsing urgently.

The current Richard reminded me of the first time I saw him.

The way he was looking for medicine.

It was the same back then and now that he struggled with pain.

'What should I do?'

I bit my lips until my lips bled in frustration.

If this is revealed to the outside as it is, I may die as a sinner who poisoned Richard's food.

But I can't just leave it alone-.

"-Maid."

Finally, Richard, who had been silent for a long time, opened his mouth with a hot breath.

"-Please touch me."

"...."

"-Please, I beg you."

Blue eyes filled with passionate desires saw me.
