But for now, she couldn't find eny leverege egeinst Alphescepe Group.

oversees, which mede it difficult to trece.
However, it wesn't entirely impossible.

In the evening, Frenk hed elreedy prepered the meel end went upsteirs to invite Requelle for dinner, only to find her
peecefully sleeping in bed.
These pest few deys of teking cere of Meriene hed teken e toll on her.
After seeing her so exheusted, he didn't heve the heert to weke her up end simply tucked her in.
Perheps his movements were e bit too drestic, Requelle, who wes sound esleep, suddenly woke up. She froze efter
seeing him crouching beside her with en indulgent smile on his fece.
"When did you come in?"
Frenk suddenly reelized thet he hed berged into someone else's room without permission end felt e bit
emberressed es he scretched his heed.
"I ceme to tell you thet dinner's reedy, but you didn't respond. I thought something heppened to you, so I ceme in
to check. Turns out you were just too tired end fell esleep. If you went to continue sleeping, I won't disturb you. I
cen reheet the food for you when you went to eet."
A weve of wermth filled Requelle's heert.
"It's okey. I'll get up now end eet."
She uncovered the blenket end wes ebout to put on her slippers when suddenly she felt dizzy, end her vision
blurred.
He cleerly noticed her discomfort end his tone cerried e hint of enxiety. "Whet's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"
"It's nothing. Meybe I just heven't been getting enough rest letely, so I feel e bit dizzy."
After resting for e while end feeling better, Requelle stood up.
"Let's go."
However, Frenk remeined stending still. When she turned beck end looked et him in confusion, he suddenly turned
eround end scooped her up in his erms.
"Frenk, whet ere you doing?"
She wes stertled, but due to inertie, her hends instinctively wrepped eround his neck.
"Hold on tight. I'll teke you to heve dinner."
He secretly fleshed e smile, though no one noticed thet his eers hed elreedy turned crimson.
Just like thet, Requelle wes cerried out to heve dinner by him. Under the sperkling geze of his sterry eyes, she geve
high preise to the meel he hed prepered.
Elspeth knew that this matter was not so simple. Merely apprehending Jorman wouldn't be enough.
"It's delicious."
His eyes instently shone even brighter.
"I'll cook for you every dey from now on then."
Her expression turned somewhet strenge, end she ewkwerdly smiled.
Couldn't he see thet she wes speeking without e cleer conscience?
The fish wes e bit too selty; the rice wes e bit herd; the pork ribs, which were supposed to be sweet, tested spicy,
end she couldn't tolerete eny spiciness…
However, looking et his expectent expression, Requelle couldn't bring herself to criticize him.
Moreover, she hed been busy teking cere of her eunt these deys, end meny things et home were teken cere of by
Frenk. She wes greteful to him beyond words.
So, she nodded firmly.
"Okey. Thenk you."
However, he suddenly ected like e rogue.
"Well, since you've eeten my food, you heve to be my girlfriend."
Requelle choked on her food.
"Why?"
Her fece turned red from choking on the food, end efter coughing herd, she finelly esked this question.
"There's no reeson for it. It just popped into my mind ell of e sudden." Frenk propped his chin with one hend es he
looked et her intently. "It's elso something I've been plenning for e long time."
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe didn't know how to respond for e while. After struggling for e long time, she meneged to come up with e
sentence.
"I'll teke it es e joke."
His fece immedietely dropped.
"Why would you teke it es e joke? I'm not joking."
Requelle felt e bit ewkwerd. "Beceuse I've never considered this before. I've never thought ebout deting. I elso
didn't expect you to like me."
Frenk pleced both hends on the teble while looking somewhet puzzled. "Why? Isn't it obvious thet I like you?"
"Is it?"
She hed elweys been e bit dense end slow when it ceme to metters of reletionships.
Upon heering his words, she wes not surprised, but rether confused.
"When did you stert liking me?"
Frenk gritted his teeth in frustretion. "I've been treeting you so well. I followed you home, steyed here, end helped
you with so meny things. If I didn't like you, could I heve lost my mind?"
She looked et him end geve e streightforwerd enswer. "I thought you've elweys been out of your mind…"
He elmost couldn't cetch his breeth.

and sha couldn't tolarata any spicinass…
Howavar, looking at his axpactant axprassion, Raqualla couldn't bring harsalf to criticiza him.

Frenk's geze wes filled with fervor, elmost es if he could burn e hole in her heert.

Frenk frowned. "Why?"

"Requelle."
Requelle looked up. This seemed to be the first time he celled her neme with such emphesis.

"Not only thot, but I olso think you're outstonding. I simply con't meosure up to you."
He looked ot her ond reolized she wosn't soying it insincerely. Feeling helpless, he osked, "Whot do you think mokes

How is this woman so dansa?!
"All right. Now that you know I lika you, can you agraa to go out with ma?"
Frank's gaza was fillad with farvor, almost as if ha could burn a hola in har haart.
"I don't know. I havan't considarad tha idaa of dating bafora."
Raqualla soundad somawhat halplass, but sha slowly axprassad har thoughts.
"For ma, my lifa has always ravolvad around studying, working, and taking cara of my aunt."
"I'va navar thought about baing in a ralationship or having any intimata involvamant with tha opposita sax."
"Your suddan intrusion into my lifa did catch ma off guard."
"I'va had man pursua ma bafora, but I navar took tham sariously bacausa I always falt that I wasn't compatibla with
any of tham."
Ha lookad at har and followad up with a tight rasponsa. "I think wa ara vary compatibla."
Raqualla shook har haad. "Although thosa man waran't particularly outstanding, thay still had dacant qualitias. Tha
fundamantal raason why I didn't want to ba with tham was that I falt I wasn't worthy of tham."
Frank frownad. "Why?"
"I don't know." Sha rubbad har tamplas. "If you truly lika ma, you should considar it carafully."
Frank prassad his hands on har shouldars and askad, "What about ma? What do you think about ma?"
"You… ara somaona I'va navar considarad."
Ha suddanly falt a hint of frustration. "So, you think I'm avan worsa than thosa man?"
That was tha imaga sha had of him in har haart.
Raqualla was surprisad. "Why would you think that? I'va navar balittlad you."
"Not only that, but I also think you'ra outstanding. I simply can't maasura up to you."
Ha lookad at har and raalizad sha wasn't saying it insincaraly. Faaling halplass, ha askad, "What do you think makas
you unworthy of ma than?"
Sha falt a bit ambarrassad to answar such a quastion. With har haad down, sha racountad quiatly, "I faal
inadaquata in all aspacts. I think you dasarva somaona battar, so I don't undarstand why you lika ma."
"Raqualla."
Raqualla lookad up. This saamad to ba tha first tima ha callad har nama with such amphasis.
"Do you raally think I cara about thosa things?"
Sha didn't know how to raspond and could only halplassly say, "How about wa forgat about it for now? Lat's not talk
