Chapter 17

“The house could be ruined… it will take a day or so.”

Oh my gosh. Melissa sighed and squatted down. This mansion was built by Lee Wolfward himself, from the foundation to the plumbing. It was said that a wooden canal was installed underground so that a nearby stream could be pulled up.

‘Even if it’s the nearest town from here, it’s very far…’

Melissa stuck her nose in her wrist for nothing and sniffed it. It wasn’t very fragrant. She always washed outside when he was away from home and always smelled of soap.

She can smell the cool scent of Gina forest, but she can also smell the sweat. That was the factor that made Melissa feel very bad.

I mean, it’s embarrassing.

“You seem to have to do it manually and you still have to do something else. I’ll let you know when it’s finished.”

“Swim?”

“Ah, yes, yes!”

“My face is blushing. It’s a hot day. is it?”

“Swim?Right! Oh, how hot it is!”

Was it just because it’s really hot? Melissa looked into his eyes and stood up trembling for nothing. It seemed as if the heat was rising one after another. She must have just looked puzzled.

The problem was that it wasn’t Melissa.

‘Why are you so handsome?’

Melissa has been falling for Wolfward rapidly since the day she opened her first conversation. A blunt expression or tone of voice, a very opposite attitude compared to her, and something like having a neat and cool appearance. She’d be lying if she said she wasn’t in love. He had some kind of power that enchanted people so they couldn’t take their eyes off him.

“If it’s hot and you want to swim, go to the lake, but be careful not to go too deep.”

“Oh okay.”

“Perhaps it will be fine to the lake at this time. Don’t go any further than that.”

“Okay.. The weather is really getting hotter and hotter!”

Melissa groaned and continued to walk away. There was no way to cover the reddened nape, so it was better to quickly disappear from his view.

But as time went on, Melissa really started to look like a ripened apple. By midday, the temperature rose sharply, and she was sweating even just by standing still. Melissa was working hard at fanning herself with her hands, but even that was too difficult, so she just gave up and laid down. Even with the windows open, no wind came in. In such a case, the body temperature should drop by immersing the body in cold water…….

‘Let’s go wash up. Probably not.’
