I Corrupted The Good Male Protagonist

Chapter 3 - The Fatal Flag As Soon As It Starts (3)



Soon, Adele opened his mouth very slowly.

Thats difficult, Anastasia.

I thought so.

I got close to Adele.

You mean you cant do this much for me?

This is wrong,

Adele backed down. He refused flatly, but he didnt directly blame me.

He still maintained a noble and polite attitude. Good intentions and ethics overflowed from his handsome face that resembled a prince in a fairy tale.

I showed a sign of disappointment.

Okay, if you cant, you cant.

Thank you for understanding.

Its too early to be relieved.

I glared at Adele.

What do you mean I understand? I wont trust you again from now on. How can I trust and rely on someone who doesnt even keep his promises? Do you have any different intention to keep me from leaving?

I pretended to be sad. Adele used a sweet, harmless tone of voice for fear that I might cry.

I was just worried that you might get hurt or fall down and nobody would be there to help you. I dont have any other intentions. I swear.

Your credibility is already at rock bottom.

.I cant.

Adele seemed genuinely shocked. I bowed my head somberly.

I have to go back.

When I turned my back, Adele groaned as if he was in trouble. He let out a shallow sigh, and surrendered at last.

.Ill do it.

Hmm?

I tried not to laugh and looked back at Adele. Adele was gripping the candy wrapper as if it were going to crumble.

Ill throw it away.

Ah, I cant do this. Why does he have to look so cute? I want to stroke his hair! It looks like itll feel really good if I wrap my fingers in his hair.

Then my hand that I used to held Adeles tickled.

Can you do it?

Please believe in my innocence.

Adele stretched his hand forward in a slow motion. Then, he opened his bent fingers one by one while clenching his fist.

I waited patiently, and just in time the candy wrapper slipped out of Adeles hand.

Adele flinched as the little trash fell to the floor. His face was stained with guilt.

I threw it away.

I closed my eyes and patted Adeles shoulder as I stepped towards him and tried to cheer him up.

Good job, Adele. Ill trust you now. But.

Then, I lifted my heel and put my lips to Adeles ear to warn him.

Adele tried to be polite as before, but he couldnt distance himself because he was being held by me.

Even now, Adele had no reaction to Anastasias face.

It make me feel a little grumpy for some reason. I left words of intimidation that sounded more intense than expected.

If you ever come back here and pick up the trash again, our relationship is over. If you understand, answer me.

Ill keep that in mind.

You also cant go to the priest and confess.

Adele gave up. I did not doubt his answer.

Hes a male protagonist who doesnt know lies anyway, so even if he yields to threats, he wont be able to talk very unpleasantly.

Well, I just hope he realize that its useless to rebel like he did before.

Good.

I grinned.

Lets get along well in the future.

Adeles eyes stayed in the candy wrappers whirling on the ground and then fixed it back to me.

..Ah. Hes so cute that I think Im going crazy.

I drove out of the alley with Adele, who had drastically diminished.

Not long after walking, a fairly neat park appeared.

There were people who were leisurely walking around, and there were quite a few children who made something out of wild flowers. One of them noticed me and opened her eyes widely.

That older sister is so pretty. Is she an angel?

Theres also a prince next to her!

They seemed to be whispering among themselves, but I heard it anyway.

But I was willing to pretend not to notice.

Hello. The weather is nice today isnt it?

Then the childrens faces became red

Kak! The angel talked to me!

Her voice sounded like pearls!

I felt a couple walking across the street also staring at me. They looked almost amazed beyond admiration.

Anastasias beauty is so fraudulent. I almost had a heart attack when I first looked in the mirror.

I waved to the children with a trembling smile.

Thanks for the compliment. Have fun.

Bye Miss Angel! Bye Brother Prince!

See you again next time!

I started walking away from the park, leaving the babbling children behind. Then Adele suddenly spoke to me.

You look better now.

This is all thanks to Adele.

Adeles voice sank further at my reply.

Did you really hate me this much?

What are you talking about, Adele. I dont hate you.

Anastasia, your eyes arent smiling.

Why is he only quick at sensing things at times like this?

I glanced at Adele and stopped. A strange look disregarded Adeles young face.

My leg hurts.

I said fatally.

Theres a cafe about five minutes away from here.

I cant walk.

Shall we go back to the mansion?

Its only been half an hour now.

Then lets sit on the bench over there and rest for a while.

How do you sit in a dirty bench like that?

I have to admit. I had fun making fun of Adele.

Adele kept suggesting something to me who was obviously just being mean.

Ill get you a handkerchief.

Heung.

Ill take off my outerwear, so please bear a little more.

I followed Adele to the bench pretending that I dont have a choice.

Adele laid his handerkerchief embroidered with a peacocks pattern in the wooden bench, took off his robe and covered my shoulders.

It wasnt that cold, but I liked the subtle citrus scent at the tip of my nose, so I didnt rejected it.

Adele checked my face from time to time but I didnt feel any speck of self-interest from him.

Is he a saint? Is he going to blush in front of the heroine only?!

I cast my eyes away from Adele.

Im thirsty.

Adelle suprisingly brought out water right away.

Here you go.

I picked up the bottle of water, and a cold temperemature unexpectedly penetrated my palm. I was surprised.

Its cool.

I also brought Anastasias favorite ganache chocolate. In addition, I brought a vomit suppressant, shoes without heels, and a fan. The shoe size and design of the fan were based on Irinas opinion.

Whats with this crazy preparation?

I drank some water to hide my embarrassment. It was much more delicious than I thought and I felt refreshed.

Ive been preparing since morning to go out today, so I guess Ive run out of energy.

Adele sat next to me while I drank more water.

Adele, who entered my bedroom casually, and kept the line thoroughly in such a situation, was nasty.

Doesnt anyone really look beautiful in Adeles eyes except for the female lead thats supposed to appear in the future?

I grumbled inwardly. I was expecting a fresh response but Adele had never blushed at me.

Of course, if I ask him about my appearance, hell just say that Im pretty so that wouldnt really help.

This iron wall is a little too thick. To be honest, there were more than one or two things that made me almost burst out.

Anastasia was an old friend of Adeles, but theyre not really on good terms with each other.

According to the original story, Adele thought of Anastasia very occasionally. She just left him as a fond memory, but thats it.

This means that he is not this conscious of Anastasia.

I dont know why you care so much about me.

Were friends.

I pointed out the problem by tapping my fingernail on the water bottle.

Adele, you spend too much time caring for me. Wouldnt it be better to read another book or learn swordsmanship at this time?

I can do that any time. I want to stay with you until you recover. If youll let me.

I secretly warned Adele

Youre suspicious. This is too much sincerity.

Ill take it as a compliment.

The plain answer left me speechless.

It was only a month ago that Adele started going in and out of the counts house as if its his own.

It coincided with the time I became Anastasia.

Mm-hmm, I dont really remember being nice to Adele though.

I pondered on what Adeles just said.

Not long before I possessed Anastasia, she swore at Adele.

She told him that hes dumb and she rather not talk to him. But, not knowing that, I greeted Adele with a soft attitude. Is it because of that?

But if youre an ordinary person, wouldnt it be absurd to have a reversed attitude in just one morning? No, well, Adele is not an ordinary person

Argh, I dont know. I dont know what hes thinking at all!

I made a moderate conclusion. Its obviously guilt.

He must have feel really guilty when I told him to just leave me alone because I will surely die anyway many times. I just dont want to be chewed later, so Im doing it right now.

Youll go straight to Olga once I died anyway.

What?

Nothing,

Tsk. I put on a sullen look.

After taking some rest and replenishing my strength, Adele took me back the mansion

When I was with Adele, I felt like a princess.

Honestly, I couldnt help but be excited. A man who is more handsome than the prince politely escorting me, isnt it natural to make my heart pounding?

Although he is still 16 years old, Adele was over 180 cm tall already. He had a nice atmosphere too. Plus, he always have this sweet, citrus like smell in him.

Adele said he would come back tomorrow. When I went straight into the closet to change, Irina followed me.

Did you enjoy your outing?

Yes, my stress is relieved!

I answered deliberately more energetically.

To be honest, I dont know how I feel. I was sometimes confused, determined to enjoy the remaining two years without lingering feelings.

Right now, Adele havent met Olga, the heroine yet so being nice to me wasnt weird either.

But, I was worried that I might develop a useless feeling because of his good intention.

Shouldnt it be like this?

Adele isnt mine anyway, so why do I feel like something is going to get stolen from me?

I am just a woman, a person, a friend.

I shouldnt forget.

Dont forget.

Anastasia is right. ADELE IS REALLY SUS. Theyre so cute tho sksksk

But Im still sticking to my theory that Adele is already corrupted even before Anastasia became Anastasia. Im curious about her illness too
