Dear Eddert

Chapter 20

“Even if she loses her memory, she will not be able to forget the reaction in her body that has been trained for decades.”

Cedric gave a glance at her and murmured coldly.

“What the hell are you doing?”

Walter breathed heavily through his teeth. A thick vein stood on his neck, unable to contain his anger.

“Do you know what you are doing now? You just made a mistake once, but I will not forgive you twice.”

Murderous energy was overflowing in his scorching dark brown eyes. He really wasn’t joking now.

“If you draw your sword in front of Eden once again, I will cut you down as the head of Sernotti according to the rules.”

“Walter.”

“What is the reason for our existence when you’re being so fussy over things? Do you mean we can have dogs as our lords?”

“I know your feelings, but now she doesn’t remember anything.”

Cedric opened his mouth in a hard tone, hiding his complicated mind. Everyone in the room knew how Walter must have felt when he stood by Eden, who was brutally murdered. But after opening her eyes, it was difficult to accept her, who had become a completely different person.

“Well… I’m sorry.”

Cedric raised his head with a confused expression hearing the voice from the window. Eden never showed any respect to him in his lifetime. At least it was clear she had lost all her memories.

“What?”

“Be, Benedict….”

Everyone’s attention was focused on Hyemi, who made a crawling voice. Hyemi clenched and opened her fists. When she looked up, all twenty men had a sword next to them. What the hell are these people… what are they doing?

Hyemi struggled to raise her voice, which was getting smaller and smaller due to the tension.

“Please let me meet Benedict.”

Her survival instinct recalled the silver-haired crazy man flashed in her mind. If he had moved her cell phone without lifting his hand, he might be able to bring her back home safely. Perhaps he was the starting point of everything.

“… He’s not the kind of person anyone can meet.”

Cedric looked straight at her and opened his mouth as if to test her.

“But he told me to come find him.”

“Why?”

Hyemi stuttered her words as she tried not to keep her eyes focused on the hand that touched the sheath.

“When, when I need help, come find him….”

“What help?”

What else did he say? Hyemi desperately traced her memory before he could draw his sword again.

“He… He said he would be waiting for me in the brightest place.”

“… Do you still think she’s not Eden? Do you really not know where Benedict means ‘there’?”

Walter frowned, but Cedric could not completely dispel his suspicions.

“If it’s Eden, it’s normal to deny it. The guy who hated that fact more than anyone else. You… know best.”

Cedric cast a complex gray gaze at Walter. When Valtri first revealed the past why Eden had been hiding for so long, he remembered how Eden reacted to everyone in the room. She said she would forget that she was the princess. And everyone agreed to that fact.

“Have you forgotten what happened after that, Cedric?”

Walter took a step towards Cedric, then spit out of his teeth. Eden was brutally murdered in exchange for choosing a normal life instead of following the fate of the Imperial Family.

“It wasn’t anyone’s fault, Walter.”

“At least we could have prepared for the danger!”

If Eden had prepared for the future with Sernotti’s knights, the result would have been different. Walter’s face contorted and he pressed Cedric.

“Are you afraid?”

“What do you mean?”

Cedric raised his gray eyebrows upwards.

“The reason you don’t want to admit that she’s Eden is that you’re afraid of what’s ahead. Because you’re afraid to die for her!”

“Walter. Are you… suspicious of me now?”

Cedric whispered lowly to Walter. The blood drained from his angry face.
