Chapter 19 Reina (Part II)



"That\'s so sweet."

"Reina, I didn\'t think you had it to confess to him."

Jennifer squealed in delight. She is happy for her daughter to find someone she likes.

What I technically said wasn\'t a lie. She had helped me with this deal. Her skill-leveling capsule would help me tremendously. And Reina did call me out to the courtyard.

"Reina, with your expressionless face, I thought you would end up alone forever."

"..."

Reina, usually expressionless, couldn\'t help but look away, hearing what her mother had said. Even she was a little embarrassed hearing her mother say that.

After the small talk, we went to a bedroom without many things. Why would we go to this room first?

"Charles, you would be staying here for the day. And this will be your room."

Would I be staying here for the day? I didn\'t think I would be staying at Reina\'s place. Does Reina have something else planned for me? I then looked at Reina, wondering if killing her brother was her only motive.

She had planned everything we had been doing so far. And I had no clue what she was planning. What she had told me earlier was nothing like this.

I needed to ask her what she was doing when we were alone.

"Reina, why don\'t you go meet your father? I will be attending to your boyfriend for a while longer."

Fuck! Reina had left, and now it was only her mother left and me. I\'m going to develop a headache after this.

"Let\'s go to the living room."

Jennifer then led me out of the room that I would be occupying.

"Did you know that tomorrow is an important day for the Burgess family?"

"Sorry, I haven\'t been informed much from Reina. She had called me today and dragged me here without any explanation."

Jennifer sighed in disbelief at what Reina did. Even though I wanted to sigh, I could only do it inside my head.

"Sorry about my daughter. She does things at her own pace."

"Don\'t worry about it. I\'m used to it."

With what had happened so far, I couldn\'t entirely rely on Reina. I would have to confront her when the chance to do so is right.

We then arrived in the living room, or should we call this the tea room? Honestly, I can\'t tell. I haven\'t lived with the rich or even met them before. I had heard that most of them were weird.

A maid who was cleaning the room had gotten tea for the both of us. Pouring the tea, the maid left us on our own.

"Tomorrow, Tristan, Burgess\'s heir, will take over my husband\'s role as the head."

Does Reina want to be the head? Or did Reina hate her brother? Speculating wouldn\'t do me any good without much information.

"I\'m sorry if this is a weird question, but does Reina dislike Tristan? Even with her stoic look, it isn\'t anything positive when she speaks about him."

pAn,Da n<0,>v,e1 Jennifer sighed for the second time. What I asked shouldn\'t be harmful. It\'s not like she could link what I said to the death of Tristan.

"I know I shouldn\'t say this without my daughter\'s permission, but knowing her. I doubt she would say anything about it."

"It started about six years ago. Both my daughter and son\'s relationship back then wasn\'t so strained."

"Back then, on the day of Tristan\'s awakening. Tristan had gained a skill. A powerful one at that."

From what Jennifer was going to say, Tristan\'s skill must be dangerous. For her to describe what had happened must have strained the relationship between Reina and Tristan.

"Tristan, careless to use his skill, had used it on her sister Reina."

"The damage that he had caused on Reina had put her in a month\'s worth of coma."

"My husband and I didn\'t know how long it would take for Reina to wake up. Thank goodness that it only took a month."

"But waking up wasn\'t always a happy thing. Reina suffered an injury in her brain and lost most of her emotions."

So that was why she was mostly expressionless. I started to pity her a little. Not being able to feel most of your emotions must be bland.

"Tristan, who had injured Reina, had avoided her like she was a plague. Not knowing how to face her, Reina\'s hatred for him started to increase."

"If only my stupid son went to Reina and apologized."

"Couldn\'t you find a healer to fix her condition?"

She shook her head, and any attempts made had failed. Jennifer had her hand up her forehead. It must be tough being an actual parent. My parents sucked. I wonder how they\'re doing. I had cursed them and had no news about them ever since.

"Then couldn\'t you or your husband get Tristan to apologize to Reina?"

Some of the problems could\'ve been avoided easily. I know why Reina wanted to kill her brother Tristan, but should I do it?

"It\'s already too late. Reina had lost most of her youth due to Tristan. I don\'t think she could ever forgive him."

"And Tristan himself is too stubborn."

Their complicated family situation doesn\'t sit well with me. With the story finished, I looked out the window and enjoyed the scenery.

"Tristan will arrive tomorrow, and this will be the first time they meet in six years. I hope Reina herself won\'t do anything."

Six years? Damn, to avoid your sister for six years. That itself was pretty trashy. He was even an adult to make it at that.

He isn\'t helping anyone with that attitude of his. The geass that I signed is still active. I wonder what would happen if Jennifer found out I was going to kill him.

"Thank you for listening. It helped a lot to say it out loud."

"There isn\'t a need to thank me, Reina is my lover, and I would be happy to help you out."

She smiled at me wholeheartedly. With that all done, Reina, who had met her father, had come into this room.
