I Became The Childhood Friend of the Obsessive Second Male Lead

She seemed to be thinking of using her newly learned words again.

Unfortunately, it looked like she couldn’t remember.

“How hard did you study to get around like that?”

“Huh?”

“….Enough. I’ll go see you right away, so take it out and wait.”

“Are you coming?”

“I’m coming!”

When he shouted, she nodded, saying she understood now.

“Ah. Goodbye then.”

“Ugh, this is so frustrating!”

He hit his chest and shouted again, pointing his finger at Rieta.

“I, you, I’m coming!”

Without waiting for Rieta’s answer, he ran straight into the mansion.

He thought that if he waited for her frustrating reactions one by one, he would have greeted the morning sun by then.

Climbing the stairs and passing through several rooms, he knocked on the door of the guest room Rieta used.

Fortunately, the door was opened immediately.

As Rieta looked at him as if she was saying ‘Why are you here?’ he quickly stated his business.

“You’re so annoying! What the hell were you trying to say?”

He acted loudly on purpose so that every bit of his meaning was conveyed.

“Uhm…”

Perhaps his efforts worked, as Rieta thought for a moment, then soon went back to her desk and picked up the dictionary.

While she looked for a word, Noel circled her while muttering, dissatisfied.

“I don’t know what you’re doing awake at this hour. This is why you can’t grow. Besides, if you forget what you learned today and need to look at the dictionary, it’s really serious, huh, what is it?”

When Rieta put down the dictionary, he stopped talking.

The word she pointed to was no other than ‘party’.

“Have you been to the party?”

“Noel, did you go to the party?”

He rapidly corrected her sentence to be grammatically correct.

“Noel, did you go to the party?”

“Noel, did you go to the party?”

Again, Rieta repeated the same sentence several times.

Her large eyes roved around.

It seemed like she was pretty focused.

If she worked hard like this, he wondered if he would be able to talk with her one day without feeling as frustrated.

He thought about what it would feel like to freely converse with Rieta.

“Uhm..”

He didn’t think Rieta would be fun, and his curiosity would all but fade away.

“Noel, did you go to the party?”

Then, Rieta looked at him, asking him.

She clearly must have memorized it.

He finally answered her question with a nod.

“Yes, I went to the party.”

Rieta seemed very happy that she had a perfect conversation.

She liked it enough to clap with one of her easy smiles.

Noel inadvertently pulled his collar, and his lips slightly twitched.

But, at that time.

Her stomach growled.

The sound of her stomach vibrated fervently and resonated in her room.

Noel’s stomach didn’t make such a stupid sound because he had just eaten a lot at the gathering.

He looked at Rieta with a strange expression.

She had a very troubled face as she held her stomach slightly, as if she was embarrassed by the sudden sound.

However, ignoring her circumstances, her skinny body produced another rumble.

Noel suddenly remembered what the butler had just said.

Everyone was worried because this stupid princess didn’t eat properly.

‘You, really,’

He stared at Rieta, his face crumpled.

That was why if anyone knew, they would think that the Duke was abusing the princess.

“N-no… That’s—I’m not hungry.”

Rieta unconsciously made up a lame excuse in the language of the kingdom.

“If you’re not hungry, then who’s hungry!”

Noel understood her words with an animal sense, and immediately attacked her.

“…..really.”

She turned her eyes again, answering in the language of the kingdom.

“You’re so funny.”

Noel grumbled and grabbed Rieta’s wrist.

He said she was the same age as him, but she was so thin that he was angry for some reason.

Up until now, she lived in the Kingdom of Liz, so it didn’t matter whether she was skinny or not.

But things have changed now.

People would see the status of a duke in the appearance of Rieta Liz.

To show that, Rieta Liz needed to be a little chubby.

Just like normal kids in the capital.
