The Young Lady Tames the Main Leads - Chapter 257

The handmade knitted socks she made when she was little were now smaller than the palm of her hand.

Jake replied with a smile.

“I used to carry it around like a talisman. There was only one pair, so I couldn’t wear them.”

“You’re really, Jake.”

Emir looked at Jake with a puzzled face.

He, who is now her husband, was obsessed with things related to her since she was young.

‘Not just Jake, everyone…… You were thinking of things related to me as precious.’

For some reason, Emir felt strange.

‘Actually, I put the things my close friends gave me as a gift for entering the academy here.’

At that time, there was had one person who hadn’t revealed what was in the box.

It was Cedric.

Cedric, who somehow seemed to be avoiding the others’ gaze, was trying hard not to make himself noticeable, hiding his box behind.

“Why doesn’t Sir Cedric reveal your box?”

“Hoh…… Did you put something embarrassing to show?”

Of course, there was no way his other friends would notice his actions.

Despite the teasing words, Cedric couldn’t deny anything.

That’s right, because what was in the box was none other than the diary he used during his academy days!

‘Damn it, absolutely not.’

Cedric felt a cold sweat break out.

Fortunately, his close friends noticed that there was something secret(?) in the box, though they didn’t know it, and didn’t mention it anymore, but Cedric was still nervous.

In fact, he had buried his time capsule in the backyard of his villa, but had forgotten about its existence until his other friends brought up the story.

And the moment he heard the word time capsule, he remembered what he had put in it 10 years ago, and he felt dizzy.

The diary he wrote in his adolescence, full of ambition and emotion, were precious back then, but now they are just top-secret trash filled with dark histories.

‘As soon as this meeting is over, I’ll take this box to the mansion and burn it in secret.’

Cedric made a firm commitment.

‘Never, never! You can’t let anyone know. Because…….’

Aside from everything, the diary contained the writings he once wrote down while unrequitedly in love with Emir.

‘If my friends find out about it, that day will be the day I die.’

Remembering what was written in the diary, Cedric shook his head.

‘At that time, I really had a reckless one-sided love.’

If there are things that have not changed after marriage, there are also many things that have changed.

First of all, Jake and I were the sole heirs of each family, so we couldn’t stay attached to one family.

Therefore, we decided to take turns living in our respective family mansions every month.

‘I’m currently living at Marquis Saeron’s residence.’

The annex of the Marquis’ residence, which had many empty rooms, became a space for us.

“Did you sleep well, Mir?”

When I wake up in the morning, there is Jake, who smiles lightly in the spot next to me, as if he had always waited.

Then I greeted him and get out of bed together.

“Come on, let me brush your hair.”

“Yes, thank you. Jay.”

Afterwards, Jake sits me down on the vanity chair and brushes my hair, which has become frizzy overnight.

I once asked him why he would go ahead and do something that I do, or that the employees would do.

‘How did Jake answer then?’

I thought as I looked at Jake through the mirror.

Just then, I met his gaze.

“What’s wrong, Mir?”

“Huh? No, my memory is hazy.”

“What memories?”

“I can’t remember what you answered when I asked the other day why you combed my hair.”

“…… ?”

Jake tilted his head slightly and blinked as if to say something.

At that time, a memory came to me at the right time.

“Oh, right. You must have said this at the time. ‘Your hair, Mir, is like a curtain of soft silk. I wanted to start my day by straightening your hair every morning.”

“Ah.”

Jake nodded his head, showing that he finally understood what I was talking about.

“Surely I said so.”

He added with a smile.

“I’ll keep doing this until later, when I’m really old and can’t move my hands anymore.”

“Haha, what is that?”

I smiled softly, but in the meantime, I felt good about Jake’s hand approaching me cautiously, so I gently closed my eyes.

Afterwards, after a joking conversation, we changed from our pajamas to our indoor clothes and went to breakfast together.
