Chapter 18: The Skeleton Can Speak!
If Rody had looked stunned, it would not be the fault of the fragrance of the food in the basket but that of the shy expression of the beautiful young maid!
Rody was already quite grown but he had never once had a girl look at him that before! Not to mention the fact that this girl was quite charming.
To be frank, Rody’s head felt a little bit dizzy.
“Young master Seth…” Angel could not help but softly call out.
Actually, Angel was terribly confused. She was a natural beauty and Seth also quite liked her. Unfortunately for her, young master Seth was born with the innate talents of a playboy. In addition, he did not just have one beautiful maid beside him but also hundreds of noble women around him.
Angel also knew about her young master’s behavior. However, she was at that young age of being love-struck and that playboy was a veteran in this area. Although Angel constantly reminded herself to be careful, she eventually still fell for the talented, handsome young man. Although Seth frequently took advantage of them and made the young girls feel helpless, he also usually treats them well.
As a commoner with a beautiful face, Angel already knew her own fate. She was just a servant. Even though young master Seth may like her at the moment, she did not dare dream about rising one day and turning into a phoenix!
She may feel helpless, but in fact, this kind of situation was quite common in the Imperial Capital.
As long as there are nobles in this world and there are beautiful maids, this kind of thing would definitely happen again.
Angel knew that if she were to continue to follow young master Seth, the best outcome in the future would be to marry him as a concubine or to be secretly arranged as his lover.
However, the most likely outcome was that she would be seduced and then abandoned. After all, she was just a lowly servant.
She had such complex emotions; Angel had some feelings for the playboy young master and at the same time she also feared him. However, she heard that Nicole had once again caught him and confined him. At that moment, her soft heart immediately relented. After thinking for a long time, she took some food and secretly came running in the darkness.
Rody felt really afraid and nervous, but also happy!
He was not stupid enough to think that the girl actually liked him. He knew that her target of affection was the playboy that had disappeared to a distant place, not this idiot stand-in that had never even known the tenderness of ladies. Anyway, Rody just could not bear to tell her the truth.
“Anyway, Miss Nicole told me not to tell the truth,” Rody comforted himself in his mind.
He trembled and laughed as he stretched out his hands to receive the basket. When his hands touched the other party’s soft hands, Rody’s heart almost jumped out of his chest.
However, Angel was frightened. The young master in front of her had a strange expression and his eyes were scary.
Angel subconsciously stepped back and tried to regain her composure. She then said in a heavy voice, “Let me… speak first... I came to see you because I was afraid something had happened to you… I am not here because I agreed to.... to… Do not think of any nonsense…”
“Think about what nonsense?” Rody could not help but ask.
Hearing those words, Angel blushed. She said, “You… you are bullying me again! I’ll tell you first… If you… If you try to touch me… from then on, I will ignore you!”
Rody’s heart thumped once again and his face turned red. Although he was not a romantic person, he understood the meaning of the girl’s words.
Seeing the girl looking at him with fondness and also fear in her eyes, Rody’s heart felt heavy. He thought to himself. What has happened to me? Even if she is beautiful, the person she likes is not me. How can I do that kind of thing? Thinking along these lines, Rody felt ashamed and slapped himself in the face.
Angel jumped in surprise and then saw Rody suddenly look sad. She sadly said, “Young master Seth… You… you… I… I…”
Rody sternly replied, “Sorry, sorry… I will not do… that anymore!”
Angel looked like she was about to cry. “Young master Seth… are… are you angry? Do you not like me anymore?”
After that, Angel hid her face with her hands, turned around, and ran out.
Even after the door was slammed shut, Rody was still in a daze. With no experience in dealing with girls, he did not know how he ended up making a pretty girl cry.
Rody sighed and told himself. This is fine. It would avoid trouble. If she found out about my identity, I am afraid Miss Nicole would become angry.
Rody was secretly glad that if not for the unique circumstances earlier where Angel was already agitated, she would have noticed that compared to the real Seth, Rody’s voice was slightly hoarser. This would have given him away.
Rody’s kept thinking about the matter. Even after he sat down, he could not concentrate on reading.
Feeling agitated, Rody stood up again and started to swing his sword.
The sword that he had initially picked up that day was already destroyed by Master Autumn. His current sword was given to him by Nicole. It was a noble’s popular accessory sword. The scabbard was gorgeous and the hilt was embedded with an expensive cat’s eye. Not to mention the sword, just the cat’s eye was enough to buy a hundred of Rody’s original sword.
