Chapter 429: : Favor



However I didn't expect things wouldn't work the way I want it.

"Dame Csille, you do know that his majesty ask me to create a team of Doctors that will be deployed to the battlefield once the war started, right?"

I nod my head confusedly. Of course I know all of those. I have written so why wouldn't I know it?

But there is one thing I don't understand. Why is he telling me all of this? I am not a Doctor so there is no way I can help me. So, why?

"Yes, I am well aware about it. But why did you mentioned it, Doctor Leander?"

He then walks towards my table. "Can you please do me a favor and ask your cousin, Doctor Pascal, if he wants to become a part of that team? I think he is more knowledgeable than me and having him in the team will definitely be a big help."

"My dear, is there something wrong? You still haven't touch your food? Is there something wrong with your work?"

I was too engrossed thinking about my conversation with Leander that I forgot that I am currently eating dinner with my family.

I look at Mother and smile reassuringly at her. "Apologies, I was probably tired with all the work today."

Mother frowns. It looks like she doesn't like what I have said. "You should have rest the moment you returned. Look what is happening to you," she then shakes her head. "Is everything okay with your work? You look bothered?"

How can I not look bothered? That Leander just ask me to make Brother Pascal agree to be a part of his team of Doctors.

I know more than anyone else what will happen if I allow Brother Pascal to join that team. He will surely lose his life and I couldn't allow it. He is the only hope of the Lauretré Family and I will never do something that could endanger him.

"Csille, is there something wrong?"

I was so deep with my thoughts that I forgot to answer Mother. I look at her and smile reassuringly. "No, Mother. Everything is fine. I am just thinking about things. There is nothing you should be worried about. Everything is under control."

I was about to take a spoon of ny dinner when Father suddenly speak. "And you expect us to believe that? I heard some commotion happened in the Foundation and it involved Prince Joachim. Is he bothering you?"Nôv(el)B\\jnn

Prince Joachim does but I am more bothered with Leander's request. Although I have turned him down, I am sure he wouldn't give up Brother Pascal. So, I need to make sure Brother Pascal wouldn't agree with Leander.

I look at Father and sigh. "No, Father. It's just a simple misunderstanding and I already fixed it. There is nothing you should worried about."

I heard Mother sigh. She then turn her head at Father who is sitting beside her. "My dear, you alredy heard our daughter. You don't have to look at her like that. I am sure she can handle everything on her own. Our child is one the brightest lady in the Kingdom. So, there is no need for you to be worried."

Father look at Mother with a frown. "My Countess, I think you are forgetting something else. Have your forgotten that the daughter you are praising just now is still unmarried. We need to do something about it."

Oh, oh. Don't tell me they will convince me to marry someone else again?

Oh, dear, why do I always face problems here?

his unparalleled skills in medicine, he is also a good person.

"I know that, Brother but can you please avoid talking to him."

He raises his eyebrow at me. "And why would I do that? Csille, can you he honest with me? What is the real score between you and Doctor Leander?"

I almost groan when I heard his question. How mant times I would explain to them that there is nothing going on between us? In fact, I am also doing this to get rid of that Leander.

If Leander realizes that my cousin doesn't like him, it will made him discouraged. In this world, it is important to be accepted by the relatives of the person you like. So, it will be good if Brother Pascal will avoid him.

"Brother, there is nothing going on with me. Haven't I already told you that it is impossible for the two of us. In fact, the reason why I want to talk about him is because I couldn't stand

him anymor-"

I wasn't able to continue what I want to say because he already cuts me off. "Did he do something wrong with you? Just tell me. Even if he is a Royal Physician, he is still not allowed to do something to you or to any woman."

I shake my head. I want Brother Pascal to avoid Leander but not to the extent that I will taint Leander's reputation. That is something I wouldn't do.

"No, Brother. He didn't do anything wrong with me so you don't have to worry. However, he

still wants to pursue me even if I already rejected him. I just couldn't stand how he acts with me lately but he hasn't done anything overboard. I just feel like he couldn't respect my decision. So, I want you to avoid him. I am afraid that he will come to you one day to convince you to make me give him a chance."

Brother Pascal got silent for a couple of seconds. He was probably contemplating whether to agree with me or not. After all, Doctor Leander haven done anything wrong to him so there is

no reason for him to do that.

I look at him nervously. I was about to convince him more but he interrupts me.

"But I do think he isn't a bad choice, Csille. Why don't you give him a chance?"

I groan in frustration when I heard what he said. I thought he would agree with me but I

guess I failed this time.

"Brother, I already told you, I only see him as my Brother and nothing else. So I hope you wouldn't talk to him. Try to avoid him as much as you can."

He sigh and gently caress my head. "Okay, I will try but I cannot promise. The medicine

world is not big. I am sure we would meet one way or another but I will try to avoid him for

your sake. So you don't have to worry."

I look at Brother Pascal.

I really hope that there is nothing I should worry about, Brother because I don't want anything to happen to you.
