He/Heroine And My Villainess

HE/HEROINE AND MY VILLAINESS

(FACE OF BLESS)

Angela looks at her with a warm smile and daring eyes, then replies.

"Oh, Miss, you don't have to worry. It's my job to take good care of you, "Angela responded as Alda smiled and felt warm from her words. After fifteen minutes, Alda had done eating. Then Angela helps her change into a new outfit and lies back in bed.

"Angela, what did the physician say earlier about me?" Alda asks.

"He said that you needed to rest in bed for four days," Angela answered, which made Alda shocked.

"FOUR DAYS?"

"Yes, Miss. He said that your body experiences fatigue and that it's very frail. So it needs to rest for four days, "Angela responds.

"But that's, I can't..." Alda gazed at Angela, problematic.

"Haaa, I can't believe this," Alda thought in distress.

"Miss, don't overthink it; it's not good for your recovery," Angela says as she sees her mother, deep in thought once more.Alda nods and then gazes back at her.

"Yeah, but Angela,"

"Yes, Miss?" Angela responded.

"I have something for you to do tomorrow," Alda mentions.

"What is it, Miss?" Angela asks, curious.

"I want you to go to Sir Arnold's hideout and pass the message that I won't be able to visit them for four days," Alda delivered.

"What? But Miss, they're not on their territory right now, right?" Angela responds with fright showing in her eyes and face. Alda deep sigh already knows the meaning behind Angela's anxious expression.

"Angela, I am not asking you to enter the forest to deliver my message to them." Alda makes her words clear to Angela, which makes Angela gaze at her in relief.

"I know it is dangerous to enter the forest. That's why I want you to go to the hideout and pay someone to deliver your message in the forest. Understand? " Alda added, instructing Angela.

"Yes, I understand, Miss," Angela answered.

"Good, now. I want you to go back to your quarter and sleep well there. You can come back here early tomorrow to attend to me, okay?" Alda mentioned something that made Angela look at her with concern.

"But, Miss," Angela hesitates.

"Angela, I will be fine. Go back to your quarter and sleep well there, all right?" Alda pursues her, but Angela still showed hesitation and concern upon leaving her alone inside the room. Alda's deep sighs.

"Angela, you don't want me to think and feel stress upon worrying about you too, right?" Alda mentions making Angela gasp, then nod while she hangs her head low in defeat. 

"Okay, Miss, I'll see you tomorrow morning," Angela responds, but her eyes still show worry. She rose from her seat and looked down at the sick young lady who she was serving.

"Em, go now," Alda replies as Angela then leaves the room.

The next day, Angela went back to Lady Cathlen's chamber early in the morning to attend to her needs and wants. After that, she then went to the head butler to ask permission to go out to the town with a false excuse. The head Butler didn't ask a further question because he trusts Angela.

"Okay, but make sure to go back before lunch." He permits Angela. Then she hurried out to the Duke's residence, riding her horse, which the Duke had given them servants. She rode her horse away to go to Sir Arnold's territory and do what Alda instructed her to do.

When she arrived, she immediately went towards Sir Arnold's hideout and saw many different people inside. A young man spotted her looking at all of the people like a lost puppy, so he approached him and asked what her business was. Angela then mentioned Sir Arnold's name, and the young boy immediately led her to the safe room where they could talk in a more preferable way.

When they were already in the safe room, Angela delivered the message to the young man and paid him some gold coins. When she had done her business, she immediately exited the place and went over to the market in Astrod town to buy some of the fruits that Lady Cathlen loves to eat when she is sick, to make her false excuse more real. 

"Thank you." She gives thanks to the lady who owns the fruit stall, then rides back home.

Inside the forest, an unexpected guest arrived at Sir Arnold and his brother's location carrying the message that Angela pass, which made them all shocked and startled.

"Max," Sir Arnold mentions, surprised.

"Why are you here?" Clark asks in shock as all his brothers stare at the nineteen-year-old boy who undoes his cloak hood with a breathtaking and feminine appearance.

Max has black, gray curly long hair, almond shape brown eyes, thick straight black brows, long black eyelashes, rosy white skin, pink heart shape lips, and a fit body like a girl standing outside their tent entrance. He wears common clothes and a dirty-colored cloak covering his body.

"A woman pays me to pass a message to you all," Max answered, which made them all turn firm and curious.

"What's her name?" "Sir Arnold?"

"She does not want to tell me her name. "She only tells me that she is the Duke's servant, and the message is from the young lady she serves," Max answers, making all the people inside concerned.

"What is her message for us?" Jin asks.

"The woman said that her young lady told her. "She won't be able to visit you all for four days because she got sick of doing intense exercise on her body," Max mentions, making them all nod and feel concerned.

"I see. Thank you for delivering the message to us," Sir Arnold replies.

"So that is the reason she failed to show up the other day," June figured.

"Yes," Clark responded.

June mentions it, touching his chin and starting to think.

"I'm sure she practices her skills in combat and exhausts herself," Mike joins in.

"Yeah, I think that too," Clark agreed with Mike's guess.

"Yeah, me too. based on her personality." Troy agreed to his two brothers' words too.

"You're right, brother," June says with clarity in her eyes.

"I hope she's recovering well," Mike joined in concern.

"Yeah, and I hope she will recover fast because I am worried about that woman from Voldroned land walking free while torturing the life of others," Troy mentions.

"Yeah, me too," Mike agreed.

"What are you saying, brother Troy?" Max asked as he went close to them, undressing his cloak, then sat beside Troy.

"Nothing," Troy responds with a gentle smile as he pats Max's head with his left hand for one second.

"How's everyone back at the camp?" "Sir Arnold?"

"They're doing well, elder brother, don't worry," Max answered.

"I see that's great to hear," Sir Arnold responds, sighing in relief.

"Yeah, how about you all, brother? How are you all here?" Max asked as he sat on the bed.

"We're good," Clark answered.

"Did you guys already find the thing you were all searching for?" Max asks, curious.

"Not yet. We're still searching, "Sir Arnold replies.

"I see," Max responded.

"Did you already eat breakfast?" Clark asks about concerns.

"Yeah, my mother cooked my favorite dish today," Max responds, full of delight.

"Sweet and sour tilapia?" Mike asks.

"Yep," Max answered with a satisfied expression.

"Eyo, look at how lucky you are," Mike replies, jealous.

"I know, thank you," Max replies, full of confidence.

"Can you tell your mother to cook us some adobo and deliver it to us later for lunch?" June's request

"June, you can't make Max come here later. The wolves will hunt early today, remember?" Sir Arnold said, reminding his younger brother about the forest danger.

"Ah, right?" June replied, scratching the right side of her neck, feeling out of confidence.

"How about this June, and I will go back to our territory today. Then we will ask Auntie Mel to cook us her best adobo and bring it back here before lunch?" Mike suggested.

"That will work. What do you think about that, brother?" Clark asks their eldest brother, Sir Arnold. 

"Em, okay. But be careful not to get caught by Astrod guards on the way out and in. Understand?" Sir Arnold gives instructions.

"Great!" Mike and June cheered up. 

"Can I come too? I want to check something in the town library, "Troy mentions, making them all silent and looking at him in stunned silence for a second. 

"Brother Troy, do you read books now?" Max asks, surprised. 

"Eh?" June looks at him, feeling weird. 

"I don't read books. I only want to check something out of the town library, "Troy answered. 

"Ahem! You all are pressuring him. Let him do what he wants. Why are you all looking at him with those judging eyes? "Jin mentions, making his brothers look at him with a 'What' expression written on their faces.

"Eh?" June blurts out in confusion and is dumbfounded.

"Ah?" Mike had the same expression as June, too.

"Ai? But you also look at brother Troy with your judging eyes, brother Jin," Max responds, making them all laugh. Jin blushed and felt embarrassed by his words.

"Shut up! You four leave now! " Jin barked and burst into anger as Mike, June, Troy, and Max ran outside the tent in haste. Then they leave with their horse, not wanting to be hurt by their brother Jin.
