The Baby Rising A Devil

chapter 15

Nos gulped down his dry saliva.

" I thought she was bored, so just for a moment, ······."

What a pitiful face....

'The duke is really scary.' He looked at the duke with pitiful eyes, but the duke looked at him back with cold eyes.

"She's a shy child, but for some reason she looks very friendly with you."

"Well, it's not like–"

"You've got a great talent. "

The Duke spoke in a very sarcastic tone. The Duke of Dubbled must be a petty superior. I can't believe you're threatening an assistant just because he played a little bit during work hours.

'Poor Nos.'

Nos put me down.

"Come here blaine"

I don't want to go.

With my hesitation, Nos's face became white, and the Duke became even more tense.

"Come here"

I had no choice but to approach him. As soon as the Duke held me in his arms, Nos bowed down.

"Well,....I'll finish my job."

After Nos fled, only me and the duke remained. Today, the duke looked at me with somehow a sharper gaze. You're not gonna punish me for playing with your assistant , are you?

The duke's eyebrow wriggled as i looked at him with an anxious look.

'You seemed so happy with Nos, didn't you say -?'

I tilted my head and looked at him.

He stared at me, lifted me up and do the exact same thing like Nos a few times.

"........"

'What is it?'

Is it a high-level of scolding?

***

What the hell was that yesterday? I squinted my eyes and thought of yesterday's incident.

When I didn't show any reaction, he took me into my room and left. 'Maybe he was trying to play with me.' Are you trying to be a father just because you adopted me?

At the end of the day, he throw me into the air, asking, "Should it be higher?"

I almost laughed and pretended to be happy because I was afraid of him. Then Lea said something while she buttons up my clothes.

"Let's go to the dining room now."

Why should we eat there?

The Duke was always busy, so he preferred to eat meals in the office. When I gaze at Lea with a curious eye, she laughed and took my hand.

'Let's go eat first'. It's harder to think like an adult if you are hungry. I grabbed Lea's hand and walked along the corridor. When I opened the restaurant door and entered, I saw the duke.

'Huh?'

And on the left side of the duke, the boys sit side by side.

"Blaine."

At that time, the Duke called me. I walked up to him and reached out my hand.

The Duke lifted me up and put me on his lap.

"This is Henry, the second child."

The child pointed out by the Duke smiled. The child had dazzling silver hair and blue eyes like the sea, looking incredibly beautiful. If the duke was a handsome man, this child was like a delicately crafted doll. He's pretty enough to be seen as a girl at first glance.
