I Will Disappear, Grand Duke | LK Adaptation

"I'll call someone first. When Your Grace wakes up, I should call the doctor right away..."

"Wait, wait."

Lalisa hurriedly caught Melissa who was about to leave.

Then, after arranging her thoughts for a while, she opened her mouth in confusion.

"Melissa.... Where am I?"

"Yes? Ah, this is the Grand Duke's villa in the southern part of the Grand Duchy."

As soon as she heard her answer, Lalisa, whose complexion became white, squeezed Melissa's sleeve tightly and let out a trembling voice.

"Why? Why did I .....His Highness...."

Lalisa, who stuttered and muttered, covered her mouth with her hand.

'Did Jungkook find me and bring me all the way here?'

'I can't believe it. How...'

Lalisa lowered her trembling hands and glanced around.

She couldn't remember anything.

How did she encounter Jungkook and how did she get to this place?

This situation was just too sudden for her.

As Lalisa began to tremble anxiously, Melissa, surprised, grabbed her hand tightly.

"Your Grace, are you okay? I need to call the doctor first...."

After hearing Melissa's flustered words, Lalisa lowered her gaze to her body.

Her outfit wasn't the dress she had in her last memory. And for some reason, her palms were bandaged.

Stuttering and hugging her arm, Lalisa opened her mouth again.

"Melissa, I... Why am I here?"

"... "

"I really.... I can't remember anything..."

To the desperate question, Melissa could not easily come up with an answer.

It was because Melissa did not know the details of the situation either.

She was just doing her chores at the castle as always.

Then one of the knights came and took her somewhere saying it was His Highness' orders.

It was at this villa that she followed the knight with her bewildered heart.

And unbelievably, Lalisa was here. Lalisa, whom Melissa had missed so much, was lying on her deathbed.

"I only heard orders from the Grand Duke to take care of the Grand Duchess. How did you come to this place, I don't know..."

"... "

"Your Grace, your complexion is too pale. Once again, lie down and I'll get the doctor...."

Even before Melissa's words were over, Lalisa rose up urgently.

At this moment, all she had in her mind was to get out of this place immediately.

"Huh, Your Grace, where are you going!"

Lalisa stepped on the floor, leaving Melissa behind, who was trying to stop her.

Lalisa stumbled across the room in a thin chemise.

Not even conscious of her bare feet, there was no hesitation in her steps through the hallway.

"Your Grace, wait...."

As Melissa, who had followed her helplessly, tried to grab her by force, someone appeared from beyond her hallway.

It was Jungkook who came back after talking with the doctor for a while.

"... Lalisa?"

At the soft voice calling her, Lalisa raised her head in an instant.

And she found Jungkook standing a little further away.

Jungkook strode closer to her with his unusual startled face.

Lalisa, as if she couldn't believe what she saw, slowly backed away from him.

"How ....."

While Lalisa was muttering in the distance, Jungkook, who approached, looked carefully at her complexion.

"When did you wake up? Is your body okay?"

"... "

"Wait. I'll call the doctor... ."

He said so and grabbed her trembling hand. Lalisa, who flinched, reflexively shook off his hand.

Jungkook, who looked at his fallen hand for a moment, turned to look at Lalisa again.

It was only after seeing the frightened appearance that he noticed that Lalisa's condition was unusual.

"Now, why... ."

Lalisa murmured continuously with a cracked voice. Her legs were shaking and she couldn't even stand properly. She felt nauseous and her head was about to break. Her nerves were breaking off one by one.

"Lalisa, calm down."

Jungkook stared at her with a calm face. But Lalisa stepped back again when his words sounded like he was trying to lock her up.

Lalisa has been living peacefully so far, thinking she was completely freed from the past.

She never thought for any reason that she would ever see Jungkook again.

"No. I'll go, I'll go..."

Unable to control her trembling lips, Lalisa passed him with a precarious step.

But soon after, she had to turn around after being held by a firm hand.

"Where are you going?"

"Are you planning to go to the ruined monastery?"

Jungkook, who held her wrist lightly, asked calmly, and Lalisa looked up at him with an exasperated face.

"No way... Did you do any harm to the monastery?"

"... "

"Hey, let me go! I...I..."

Lalisa twisted her shaky hands, but Jungkook's big hand didn't budge. And at this moment, Jungkook was feeling that there was something oddly wrong with her words.

"Lalisa."

Looking at Lalisa, who could hardly regain her reason, Jungkook spoke with a clear voice.

"Can't you remember what happened?"

"... "

At his question, Lalisa stopped her struggling movements and lifted her gaze. Jungkook, who read her reply from her silence, gradually released the
