Chapter 88: What was that?!
The voice coming from the treasury flew through one ear and left through another. The person behind it spoke fast, not allowing Alex to comprehend the situation. He couldn’t tell whether he heard things or not, but he would keep that little event in mind.
With Celia by his side, Alex went to Stella’s room.
It was a good hour to spend some time with his wives in a name. But as everyone was doing their duties or just lazying around, Alex couldn’t gather everyone for even a breakfast.
He still hoped that everyone would eat at least a dinner together.
As the doors spread, revealing Stella’s room, Alex and Celia braced themselves for another one-sided talk with Stella.
But as the wind passed through them, licking their hair behind, Alex and Celia got struck speechless.
Before them, Stella stood on her bed.
She lifted her hands and opened the windows! In this way, she let some fresh air into her room. Immediately after that, she promptly dropped onto her soft pillow.
She curled up and went asleep.
Alex and Celia stared at her with widened mouths.
Then, both of them looked into each other’s eyes.
Alex whispered, “I do see things, right? How can I hear and see things two times in a row?”
“You do, Alex! I also saw Stella opening the windows!” Celia replied with her tiny hands clenched.
They gulped down, then the elation took over them!
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAlex stepped into the room with thunder in his voice, “Stella! You are so cute! You are so adorable! What was that?!”
“What was that?!” Celia repeated, her voice slightly weaker than Alex’s.
They couldn’t believe what had happened, but the reality was before them. The fresh wind went through them, slapping them back out of their amazement.
Alex laughed, “Ah! For some reason, it feels so rewarding! It’s as if our hard work finally bore fruits! Right, Celia?”
“Right!” Celia crossed her arms and nodded a few times, like a leader.
They let their happiness take them over. In a good mood, the duo of good friends went through Stella’s room, picking up clothes and other mess around. Of course, it was nothing compared to the past.
Stella, the lazy winged girl, the embodiment of sloth, had taken so many steps forward that it was unbelievable.
While Alex and Celia hummed happily around the room, Stella listened to them with her little hands clutching the blankets.
Her heart thumped a little faster, not allowing her to fall into dreamland.
Of course, she opened the windows just now because she had felt Alex’s presence coming.
She had been waiting for him.
And though Stella might not look or act like a smart girl, she was, in fact, the second smartest girl in the Deathwill Castle, just behind Sara. Her laziness just made it harder for Stella to process and act.
And the fact that she could see through people’s emotions also clouded her judgment.
Because of her past lifestyle filled with servants, Stella hadn’t felt too much urge to take care of herself. The other reason was her holy power.
She could maintain proper health by leveraging her exalted status.
It was still not good, and what Alex had been trying to do to her was right.
Stella knew about it, but her laziness was just too much of a curse. However, a particular emotion broke all common sense and one’s judgment. That feeling changed people and brought disasters.
Love.
Feeling an affection toward Alex and how other sisters developed their own feelings for him, Stella knew she had to change a little. Knowing that Alex wanted nothing but the best for her helped her too.
Therefore, she started doing little things that would please the person she had developed feelings for.
In this way, Stella compelled Alex to take care of her.
She just opened the window, yet he reacted as if she had changed the whole world. Better, she was still herself, lazying and sleeping on the bed.
If he gave her a head pat…
Pat!
“You really know how to make people smile, my goddess,” Alex said while ruffling Stella’s hair.
Her white streaks felt so soft, and her little head seemed warmer. Alex couldn’t help but pinch her cheeks a little.
To that action, Stella opened her eyes and sent an adorable glare.
Alex’s heart skipped a beat.
He ruffled more than he should!
Stella’s hair became quite a mess!
“Aunt Stella! Will you eat dinner with us today?” Celia climbed up the emperor’s bed with Alex’s help, then asked the question.
Stella didn’t really feel like eating, but Celia had also been helping her a lot. In Alex’s absence, Celia and her wolf had been visiting her.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmTherefore, to the little dullahan’s inquiry, Stella could only say one word…
“Ok.”

“Mom! I learned a lot today!” Celia shouted as she barged into her and her mother’s room.
Alex followed behind. He wore a broad smile which was happiness from Stella’s development. He could already see her doing her chores and taking care of her cave in the castle.
Seeing them both, Sara stopped reading a book. She momentarily froze as the picture unfolding before her had been one of her dreams.
She had seen her daughter returning home with her father in her dreams. Of course, in those dreams, Sara saw a different man. After the disaster, she saw an unrecognizable face, as if waiting for someone to fill the dream.
And now, that dream became a reality, with a young man returning home…
Sara woke up from her daze and faintly smiled, “What did you learn?”
“You multiply first!” Celia said with a nod.
Sara laughed while covering her lips with a book, “Didn’t I teach you that?”
“Ah,” Celia parted her lips in a shock.
Alex and Sara laughed in a tandem.
Feeling embarrassed, the little dullahan ran toward her bed. She wrapped herself in a blanket, hiding from everyone.
