‘Don’t joke about such things! I was really shocked!’

“Were you worried?”

‘Of course!’

“Sorry. I’m glad you’re worried though.”

Blake took my hand.

‘Don’t say that. It doesn’t feel good to worry about someone.’

I held his hands in response.

His small and plump hands had now turned into the hands of a man.

My heart sank. He was much taller, bigger, and stronger than me but I was still worried about him.

I began to worry as soon as I saw him sitting on the field back then.

“Okay, I’m sorry. Don’t make that kind of face.”

Blake patted my head.

I tried to smile. I didn’t want to see Blake sad.

‘You’re not really hurt, are you?’

“Yes, I’m not hurt at all.”

I rechecked his wrist just in case. Edon approached us.

“Your Highness, what were you doing here? I heard you got hurt, but you seem fine. What a relief.”

Edon knew from the beginning that Blake was very strong. Even without checking whether or not Blake was hurt, he could still tell.

“What’s the matter Edon?”

“His Majesty called for you.”

“Tell him I can’t right now. I need to teach Rose.”

Blake looked at me.

‘No need. I went to the library in the morning. I’d like to take today off because I’m tired.’

“…okay.”

Blake sulked.

I didn’t expect him to act like that but seeing him resemble a disappointed puppy, my resolve became a bit weak.

‘Let’s study together at night later.’

“At night?”

‘…yes.’

“Okay, let’s study at night.”

Blake smiled brightly.

“Oh my god, what should we do?”

I went into the palace but the atmosphere was somehow tense.

I approached Chelsea quickly, wondering why many people were gathered.

“Miss Rose!”

I quickly wrote in my notebook, asking what was going on.

“The chef is hurt.”

I had never seen him in person but I was worried.

— Was he hurt very badly?

Chelsea shook her head.

“No, he must have slipped and twisted his back a little. But he won’t be able to cook for a few days.”

Although it was dangerous to have a sprained back, it was fortunate that no big incident occurred.

“Chef Terry went to collect ingredients with the other chefs. Melissa will come back late today. We were worried about the meal preparation.”

I looked at the maids. They were all in this state because of Blake’s meal arrangement.
