His Highness’ Secret Accountant

Chapter 266



Chapter 266

"Keep running away and live. The only thing left for you in the end will be hell."

At Theon's low voice, the corners of Kyle's mouth went up.

"You're pretending to be good to the end. Alright. Let's go together."

At the same time, the long blade split through the air, making a swish!' sound.

"Stop!!! Stop it. Please."

""

At Ayla's wailing voice, Kyle slowly lowered the hilt of the sword he was holding.

Then, Kyle's eyes, which sank darkly, slowly turned to Ayla.

"Ayla"

A pathetic voice calling her.

As if all the tension had disappeared, Ayla's slender body collapsed with a flop'.

A constant stream of hot tears flowed down her cheeks.

Seeing that, Kyle grabbed his chest while his face distorted.

"Don't cry. It's my fault, so please"

Kyle's weakly trembling fingertips headed for Ayla.

"Don't come any closer."

"!"

"People like you are horrible and creepy."

Kyle's face hardened in an instant as Ayla finished speaking.

He seemed to be hurt, from his expression and the look in his eyes.

In contrast to that, the corners of his mouth were slightly raised.

Chuckle.

Immediately, Kyle's shoulders shook up and down and he spat out a dejected laugh.

Biting her lips tightly, Ayla trembled at the sight of the mad Kyle.

Shwing-!

A cold metal sound rang in her ears, as if it had been waiting.

The sharp blade shone on Kyle's neck.

"Don't go near my woman. I won't tolerate it anymore. Kyle Ermedi."

Theon recited in a low voice as his cold eyes looked at the two of them.

"Your Highness!! Your Highness!! Miss Ayla! Wait!! Please stop!"

A voice was heard behind the two people who were heading for the infirmary.

Mason ran gasping in front of the two people who had stopped walking and turned around.

"What's going on? We are on our way to the medical corps. Keep it short."

"Cough, cough, I just came from there."

"What's his condition?"

"Fortunately, the bleeding has stopped."

"The bleeding stopped? Is there any other problem?"

"That"

"Don't make me wait and tell me."

"He hasn't regained consciousness yet."

In an instant, the eyes of the two people shook greatly.

Immediately, Mason gave a bitter smile and continued.

"Don't worry. I'm sure he will improve."

Theon hesitated to answer Mason's low voice.

Then, as if he had made up his mind, Theon let out a shallow sigh and opened his mouth.

"Summon the healers."

"B But, isn't magic forbidden in the Kingdom?"

"I owe him my life. He risked his life, so I have to repay him."

"When the officials find out, it will be difficult to avoid the accusations against Your Highness."

"So, you have to make sure they don't know."

"It's not that simple"

Theon's cold gaze turned to Mason.

Feeling his gaze, Mason stopped what he was saying and shut his mouth tightly.

It was clear to him that if he talked more, he would get in trouble.

Theon's threatening voice rang in Mason's ears.

"Any complaints?"

" None. I will do as you said."

When he finished speaking, Theon made a gesture with the tip of his chin as if telling him to step aside.

Whether he had something else to say, Mason hesitated and rolled his eyes left and right.

"Do you have anything else to say?"

"That"

"Don't make me wait and tell me quickly. My head is already hurting enough."

"The distinguished guest you mentioned the other day is outside the Royal Palace."

***

"Where are we going?"

Ayla, who was following in Theon's footsteps, spoke in a sharp voice.

" There is someone you must meet."

""

As he didn't seem to be lying, Ayla silently pursed her lips.

She didn't even know who on earth she was meeting and why he was in such a hurry.

Marquis Charne, who said he would stay in the mansion to save his life, would not have come on his own.

Ayla tilted her head and walked down the stairs of the detached palace.

At the end of the narrow staircase, the familiar iron door entered her vision.

As if nervous, Theon took an uncharacteristic deep breath and brought his hands to the iron door.

Screech.

Soon after, the large iron door opened with a heavy metal sound.

Among the tall-grown bushes, the silhouette of a handsome black horse and a man were seen.

Who on earth'

She couldn't see the other person's face at all as it was covered with a robe.

Ayla's blue eyes filled with vigilance against the stranger.

Trudge, trudge.

Ayla cautiously took a step behind Theon, who was going ahead.

"You're here?"

""

"The situation wasn't the best so you must have been uncomfortable"

"Thanks to Your Highness' care, I came here comfortably."

Ayla's eyes twinkled at the middle-aged man's familiar voice.

"Father?"

Ayla cleared her trembling voice and said to the middle-aged man.

Taking off his robe, Count Serdian smiled lovingly at Ayla.

With both eyes filled with tears.

***

I already know what you and Princess Ariel set up. Just so you know, after meeting with Queen Estella, I will formally raise this matter with the superiors.'

C Count, I mean, treasurer!! Please pretend not to know, just this time. You know, right? A lowly nobleman like me doesn't have the authority to refuse'

I've warned you many times. I gave you plenty of chances to quit. I can't turn a blind eye anymore. If you can't do it, I'll do it for you.'

At Count Serdian's adamant words, Baron Charne grabbed the Count's pant legs and laid flat on the floor.

Brother! I mean, Count!! For my daughter's sake Please!!'

'

Claire, that poor child. She grew up lonely, unable to even feel her mother's embrace. If I'm not here, who will care for my child? Sob, sob.'

Count Serdian frowned slightly at the sight of Baron Charne sobbing with his eyes full of tears.

Was it because he was a father who raised a daughter?

Jaden's mind was complicated because he seemed to know how he felt.

Ugh

A low sigh flowed out of Count Serdian's mouth.

Arthur made a mistake, but he was right.

How could a powerless nobleman disobey the words of a princess from another country?
