Bab 22: More Important Than Pain

"What do you really want from me? and why did you save me?" Alicia didn't want to leave the room without getting anything. She had to get important information or confirmation about her position in the palace that she was neither a prisoner nor a slave.

Alicia, who still closed her eyes, heard that the Young Master returned to his original place and opened his book again. And Alicia was silent for a few seconds until the Young Master answered her question.

"Didn't I ask you to go back to your room?!" The Young Master's tone was a little high when Alicia actually disobeyed his orders. The Young Master's true nature was finally starting to show. However, she still didn't expect this quiet, emotionless man to get angry easily. It was beyond her expectations!

Not expecting that he could get angry, it immediately scared Alicia, who was already confident. When she imagined the expression of the young master scolding her, her legs started to tremble, and she felt weak. She could fall at any moment if her fear got worse.

With all her might, she tried to suppress those feelings because Alicia didn't know when she would be able to see the Young Master again, so she couldn't waste the opportunity to talk to him at this point.

Alicia didn't have much time left before the Young Master's anger resurfaced. She was forced to open her eyes to find a solution so she could still talk to the Young Master.

Slowly, she opened her eyes and looked at the floor of the young master's room. Unlike the 5th floor hallway, the room turned out to be clean without the slightest crack in the ceramics. A few inches in front of her, there was a carpet that stretched across almost the entire room.

While Alicia's gaze was exploring the carpet in front of her, she suddenly found an object that would allow her to spend more time with the Young Master.

'That's the solution to my problem!' Right on the carpet near her, she saw a shard of ceramic that was quite large and looked quite sharp. She was sure that the ceramic was carried away when Alicia rushed into the Young Master's room.

"Why are you still standing there? Go away." The Young Master again reminded Alicia in a higher tone than before. If Alicia didn't find the right solution, she would accept that Young Master's anger would soon reach its peak.

"Ouch..."

"Do I need to repeat- What are you doing?!" The young master, who sounded furious, immediately stopped his words when he realized something behind his.

"I'm sorry, my foot accidentally stepped on a ceramic shard." Alicia, who was sitting on the floor, groaned in pain. She gave the reason why she didn't come out right away.

Alicia, who had opened her eyes, dared to look ahead for the first time. Right at the end of the room, she saw someone behind the table staring at a book with a chair facing the window curtain.

"Blood? Did you do it on purpose?" Without looking at Alicia, the Young Master knew that the soles of Alicia's feet were bleeding.

Alicia was surprised that the Young Master found out it was done on purpose. Worried that she would be caught, she looked on the left side of the room and found the bathroom. Without thinking, she immediately used that to dodge him's question.

"I accidentally stepped on it when I wanted to go out. This was my carelessness, can I borrow your bathroom to clean my wound?"

"Yes." He replied in an even tone as if he didn't care what happened to her.

Now Alicia's difficulty in walking is increasing. She has to walk by lifting her dress and walking with a limp because the ceramic shards are still stuck in the soles of her feet.

'I-it hurts!! I stepped on it too deep... What's with that guy?? I really hate Young Master's response! Even though he doesn't care, but why did he let me use his bathroom.' In the bathroom, she sat on the edge of the bathtub to remove the tiles on the soles of her feet which were stuck quite deep.

Besides the pain, she was also annoyed by the attitude of the Young Master, even though she was doing this just to be able to talk to him. Still, she didn't expect that her initiative would actually make quite a lot of blood come out when the ceramic managed to escape from the soles of her feet.

"Ouch-ouch! Though I thought the water would be warm." She couldn't help the pain when she washed her wound with cold water from the shower. It was truly a great combination that she never thought of torturing herself.

While washing her wound, she suddenly thought of looking for a mirror in Young Master's bathroom.

She was actually embarrassed to look at the bathroom that was always used for men, but for her purposes, she was willing to feel embarrassed for a moment.

Young Master's bathroom is not very different from her room, the luxury is the same, and the facilities are complete. But still, there is no mirror. "Huff, what's the real problem with people here with mirrors?"
