I Became The Childhood Friend of the Obsessive Second Male Lead - Chapter 370

“Was I covered in devil’s blood or something? I’m seeing something awful.”

“What awful? You shouldn’t say that to your friend.”

Despite Rieta’s advice, he approached them, saying, “There are two awful things.”

“Were you stupid enough to get lost? Why are you guys out here?”

Hugh replied with a smile.

“No way. This is our destination.”

“Why are you making Rieta your destination?! Who gave you permission?”

“Do, do you think we made the Princess our destination?”

“Shut up, you dark-hearted bastard!”

Noel retorted at Hugh, then turned to Everet.

“What’s your business?”

“You’ll know without asking. Who do you think can make me move?”

Noel thought of his stubborn sister Gabriella. His foolish roommate had come all the way to the border because he couldn’t bear to see his fiance worried about Rieta.

A bitter smile crossed Noel’s lips.

Well, Noel had also crossed the border following Rieta, so he couldn’t really blame them.

“Did Sister Gabriella send you here?”

“Yes, this crazy bastard!”

Everet immediately grabbed Noel’s collar and punched him in the face. It was so sincere that the sound of the punch echoed loudly.

“Wa, wait!”

Rieta tried to intervene between the two, but Hugh stopped her.

“It’s okay, Princess, you don’t have to intervene.”

“Bu, but…”

“Everett is just worried about Lord Noel here.”

Only then did Rieta stop. Ah, that’s why.

Thinking about it, it seemed like she had heard the strange notion that friends bonded through exchanging punches.

Everett really treasures Noel. He’s so, so worried…

Understanding Hugh’s words quickly, Rieta decided to watch over the two with a warmer gaze than anyone else.

But…

“Why did you only inform Princess Gabriella that you’re going to Liz? Do you have any idea how much she’s been suffering because of it? Her delicate arms have become even thinner because of you! She can barely have three meals a day!”

However, as Rieta listened to Everet’s continued story, it seemed like Everet hadn’t come running solely out of concern for Noel. He was undoubtedly furious because his beloved Princess had become busier.

Noel rubbed the spot where he was hit with the back of his hand and grinned wryly.

“Sister Gabriella has strong arms. If they’ve gotten even slightly thinner, it’s probably just a loss of muscle due to lack of exercise. And she barely eats twice a day, wouldn’t three meals be enough?”

“Four meals and three snacks would still not be enough to cope with busy days like hers!”

“You crazy bastard, then go and grill some meat for Sister!”

“I want to do that too! I want to feed meat to the Princess’ cute little mouth in the morning and evening!”

Noel paused.

It was because Everet’s face had turned irreversibly red as he uttered the phrase ‘cute little mouth’.

Noel confidently threw a punch at the flushed face.

“There’s another bastard with dark intentions here. If you do anything weird to Sister Gabriella, I’ll kill you.”

“You!”

“And about the fact that I’m here, I told her, in various ways.”

“If you were secretly trying to exploit Princess Gabriella’s power, then I must say, you’ve completely succeeded, you punk.”

“Of course I did, Sister Gabriella is a genius.”

“Hmph…! We, well, that’s true.”

Everet began to cover his face with both hands, muttering to himself.

Everyone fell silent at his sudden change in demeanor.

When Rieta, who had been stepping back, asked quietly, “Why is he like this?”

Hugh Mclean kindly explained.

“He’s in ecstasy, enchanted by Princess Gabriella’s appearance. Apparently, he tends to do this three times a day.”

“Men deeply in love are kind of cute.”

“Well, should I do that too? Will you find me cute?”

Rieta was taken aback by Hugh’s words and quickly turned to look at him.

She was so out of mind that she couldn’t remember but it was only recently that she remembered that she had received his confession,

“I’m sorry, Princess.”

Hugh quickly apologized, knowing Rieta was in trouble.

“That was mischievous of me. I just wanted to see you flustered because of my jealousy. Was that awful of me?”

Rieta quickly shook her head at Hugh’s apology.

She vaguely felt that he was deliberately acting this way to dispel the awkward atmosphere since the confession that day. Moreover, Hugh was also the person who helped her realize her feelings for Noel.

“Yes, you bad bastard.”

Noel, who had returned after his quarrel with Everet, stood between Hugh Mclean and Rieta.

He made a gesture as if shooing Hugh away with his hands.

“Those who have nothing but bad intentions, step back five steps.”

“Noel.”

Rieta called him out, gently tugging at his arm as if restraining him.

Although it was unlikely, she didn’t want Noel and Hugh to end up fighting.

“Uh, what?”

“Did you honestly tell Princess Gabriella when you and Elisha came here?”

“Well… I did.”

Despite assuming her position as the rightful heir, the Princess remained in a suitable corner, balancing power.
