The Reason I Keep Avoiding My Childhood Friend

I put all the messy papers in the drawer and leaned back in my chair, careful not to look too arrogant.

“Alright. Well, first of all, Baron Harold Owen. What did you come to see me for?”

I wasn’t going to talk until he explained it properly. He kept on gazing at me. I responded with an expression that said, hurry up and explain.

Baron Owen’s eyes gradually turned cold, so I deliberately watched even the movement of his eyes. I instinctively felt that I shouldn’t get dragged along now.

By the time I felt tired of the tense nerve war, the door burst open without knocking and a person broke in.

“What…..!”

I had to warn the person who was trespassing on my space, but the moment I saw the person stepping in, my eyes almost popped out in surprise.

First, the gorgeous red hair caught my eye, and the cold blue eyes passed me quickly and sharply. That alone made my heart thump. Even the cool eyes were sexy. It wasn’t feminine, but the face had an elegant beauty. I couldn’t take my eyes off the gorgeous appearance.

He stepped in confidently and was emitting calm anger all over his body. Even in the face of such arrogance, I didn’t think this man was cocky. He looked rather virtuous. Why was that person here? I felt my soul left me.

Even though I saw his face a long time ago, I could immediately recall who it was! I thought I had forgotten because it had been a long time, but as soon as I saw him, I vividly remembered the day I saw this man.

In front of my eyes was the escort knight for Princess Taylon, now Crown Princess – a person who had a great impact on my life with his appearance that seemed like straight out of a picture.

“Why did you disappear like that?”

The chilly voice thrilled my ears. His voice was low, and it sounded so good that it gave me goosebumps. Was this what it means by looks that captivate people? Amazing. I definitely felt it the other day, but it was visually phenomenal that I couldn’t take my eyes off him.

The Taylon knight was staring at Baron Owen fiercely as he spoke. So that means he wasn’t talking to me.

“Adrian…”

Baron Owen, who had been proudly provoking me, looked like he had been stabbed all over his body.

“Why are you so impatient? Didn’t I tell you to wait? Why can’t you wait for that?”

The Taylon knight, who I thought would be quiet, did not seem to have a quiet personality. He shot one-sided accusations nonstop. Then, Baron Owen, who was watching, countered without losing.

“It wasn’t that I didn’t wait. I waited but was rejected. Why should I go back when I could leave the quick way?”

“You should have waited. If you sneak out like this, it’ll trouble everyone!”

“As long as I’m not caught.”

“Then what if you get caught?”

“As long as I’m not caught. Don’t worry about things that didn’t happen.”

Baron Owen came out brazenly, and the Taylon knight calmly asked.

This was definitely my space, but the new guests who occupied my laboratory had started a nerve war on their own. Thrown away as a spectator while watching the two men fight, I didn’t know what to do.

As I took turns watching the two of them, I realized why this uninvited guest, Baron Owen, was not unfamiliar. Standing side by side, he resembled that incredibly beautiful Taylon knight. It’s not like they’re identical, but they had a similar impression.

I only saw the Taylon knight from a distance some time ago. But he was so beautiful that I could not forget him even though I only saw him once. It seemed that I felt familiar to Baron Owen due to his resemblance to the knight who was strongly etched in my memory.

“Don’t say that you won’t get caught! If there is a problem, you can’t even handle it!”

“So you can’t live without doing anything because you’re afraid of it!”

No, aside from that, why were they fighting in my lab? Surely the reason they’re fighting here had nothing to do with me, right? Somehow, if I didn’t stop them, they would continue to fight, so I had no choice but to step up.

“Pardon, excuse me. Should the two of you go out and fight or do some errands?”
