Quick Wear: I'm bound to the love strategy system

Chapter 185 The Noble Mad Duke * The Speculative Girl (43)

April was frightened by Strahl. She was going home in a carriage, so why did she appear here?

She asked Strahl, "Why am I here?"

Strahl looked at April's angry and confused eyes, and answered with a smile on his lips.

"I told the groom to bring you to me when you try to escape."

His voice was calm, without a trace of guilt.

April said firmly, looking him in the eyes.

"I'm not trying to escape, I just want to go home.

I have an employment relationship with you, and tonight, I want to go home."

April revealed all her grievances in front of him.

It's not the deliberate strength in the banquet hall, nor the madness when being alone.

April was fragile at this moment, and her honey-colored eyes that always showed sweet emotions were now filled with pain.

“I just want to go home, I want my mom, I want to see her.

Well, and my brother, he's so fat."

April looked at Strahl and couldn't stop crying. She was not only crying because she saw her relatives.

For whom were her tears shed?

Strahl sat on the edge of the bed, all his anger towards April vanishing.

He hugged April and stroked her slightly trembling back.

April grabbed Strahl's shirt on his chest and rested her forehead on his neck.

Her voice began to choke.

Strahl felt April's pain, and the anger he had felt when he learned that April had escaped in the banquet hall just now vanished in an instant.

When he knew that April really wanted to leave him, he understood his stupid father for the first time in his heart.

Strahl thought about building a cage and locking April in it.

The cage has to have a fancy appearance, otherwise April won't like it.

He knew that the girl liked fancy things.

He didn't know why April chose to escape on this night.

He obviously gave her everything she wanted.

April has a simple and vain heart.

He gave her jewelry, fine clothes, and envious looks from others.

But she still didn't want to stay with him.

Why couldn't he keep April?

Strahl said in a low voice into April's ear.

"If you want to see your mother and brother, I can take them to Blanchett Manor."

April's fingertips began to ache, but the tears in her eyes had not yet dried.

"No, I don't think it's appropriate for them to be guests at Blanchett Manor. If they come, in what capacity?"

“Nothing is inappropriate,” Strahl said.

April chose to stimulate Strahl directly with words.

"Blanchett, if even I don't like it, my family won't like it either."

Strahl told April, "You're going to like it here. That's the only place you can like."

April released her grip on Strahl's clothes and punched Strahl's chest mercilessly.

"You bastard, what you are doing is detention and a violation of Imperial law."

Strahl lowered his brows and looked at April in his arms.

"I don't think the Imperial Archon will find me guilty, my dear."

April was distracted by the way his voice was deliberately softened.

"Don't call me that. We are not in a relationship that can be called that."

Strahl listened to April's rejection of him, but he could easily hear the weakness in April's words.

He hugged April, put his slender hands around her waist, and let her kneel on his legs.

After she sat down, Strahl loosened his arms around her waist.

Bring April's cheek to his chest.

"April, did I ever tell you I like you?"

April's voice was muffled.

"No, you were just teasing me the whole time."

Strahl chuckled.

"April, let me tell you now, I like you. I don't know why, but I like you very much."

April was not moved by his frivolous words at all and just spoke in stiff language.

"Oh, how could I not know why I am so beautiful, though you are more beautiful."

Strahl said seriously.

"I'm not moved by people's appearance, but I just like looking into your eyes."

After hearing what Stral said, April seemed to have a small seedling growing in a secret corner of her heart.

"Although I know you are frivolous, vain, emotionally unstable, stupid, and easily deceived."

The young seedling suffered from unprecedented strong winds and waves.

"But, even though I know all your bad points, I still like you very much."

The wind and waves helped the tiny seedlings to grow healthily.

"Dear April, do you like me too? Well, actually I can feel it."

April took a breath and accused Strahl of talking to himself.

"Blanchette, even though I said I hate it when you ask me rhetorical questions, you don't have to stop me from answering."

She said stubbornly.

"How come I didn't know I liked you?"

April's warmth passed through the silk pajamas and reached Strar's palm.

"April, I know everything. You can't deceive me."

His language sharpened.

"Including Campbell's."

April never tires of using language that might irritate Strahl.

"Of course you know about Viscount Campbell. You snatched me from him, didn't you?"

Strahl's purple eyes became more dangerous, but unfortunately April, who was buried in Strahl's arms like an ostrich, couldn't see them.

"Oh, April, I think you should be more careful with your language."

He corrected the loopholes in April's words.

"Amanda snatched you from that girl in Campbell. You never belonged to Campbell."

April felt that Strahl was really getting angry, and she didn't dare to continue to provoke him with words.

Finally he just snorted.

April felt uncomfortable kneeling, so she changed her position and put her arms around Strahl's waist.

Although there were electric lights, candles were still lit in Strahl's room.

Well, it's a weird combination.

April asked tentatively.

"Blanchette, what am I to you."

April swore that she just wanted to take a simple test, but when the words came to her lips, she couldn't help it.

Ask the question you want to ask most.

Maybe I still can't deceive myself into being Strahl's unspeakable lover.

Strahl's beautiful face no longer had the aristocratic smile it always had in the past, but instead looked indescribably complicated.

A gentleman would not be stumped by such a question.

"April, to me, you are that..."

He originally wanted to say some sweet words to avoid this question, saying that the person who falls in love first will always lose.

But in the end, it paused.

His voice became quiet, but April heard it.

"Sweet love."
