The Impact Of The Villainess' Fake Marriage On The Ending

Chapter 90

The kiss they shared in front of the small sea made by Kael felt like they were going to devour each other right away.

Kael's hands approached Adeline's dress straps so naturally, and Adeline was naturally hot enough to think beyond that.

They felt enough passion to mix their bodies, had they not realized that they would cross a line that they would never be able to turn back the moment they wished to go beyond this.

However, neither Kael nor Adeline were able to completely let go of each other.

Their seemingly never-ending kiss was over, but the night that seemed eternal couldn't beat the sun.

It had been a long time, but Adeline still felt the warmth of Kael on her lips. Adeline carefully placed a finger on her lips, as if to feel the temperature a little more.

'Can I forget someone who leaves a trace like this? Can I really give up on a man who seems to want me more than anything else in the world?'

Gripping her dress, Adeline sighed. She had no confidence to give up on Kael.

"Your Grace. Are you alright?"

"Hm? Why?"

"You seem to be thinking a lot since yesterday."

"Ah... It was just a lot of work. There's a lot to think about."

The day passed so frantically that she didn't even know how her birthday was. It was the same today.

People congratulated her and she moved around, doing what she had to do, but her body felt numb.

Only Kael's voice lingered in her ears, and only the image of him showing the sea filled her head.

Thinking about Kael the whole time, she even felt like she was living as Kael Inver instead of Adeline Tien.

The kiss they had shared in the deep night was revived, and her face turned red. The tearfully ecstatic kiss only became clearer as time went by, and the memory of it did not fade at all.

"You can go now, Melissa. Rest well. I'll do the same."

"Yes, Your Grace. Good night, then."

Adeline, who was left alone, stared at the door leading to the study.

She hadn't even been able to make eye contact with Kael since the kiss. Kael was so busy that he didn't leave the office, and Adeline deliberately avoided him even more.

But after not seeing him like that, her yearning grew deeper and deeper.

She missed Kael.

"He might not be there..."

Eventually, Adeline got up and headed to the door that led to the study. She quickly stepped forward with a large stride and opened the door without hesitation.

"Kael?"

"Adeline."

When she opened the door wide, Adeline faced Kael, who had entered the study just like her.

"... You must have been very busy."

"I guess. The deeper the winter, the more things to do in the North."

The atmosphere between the two, sitting face to face, was very awkward.

As much as Adeline couldn't wake up from that night, Kael too was drunk on that night's kiss.

The more he touched his lips, the more he still vividly felt the sensation of his strings of reason breaking. He wanted Adeline every moment, but that night, he wanted to hold her with surprising intensity.
