"...Scarlett?" Leislet muttered confusedly. She didn't know how Scarlett was able to find their location. Not only did she make sure to keep this matter a secret but she also did it in a very short time to reduce any kind of suspicion about it.
But, somehow, she is now standing in front of her with a very angry expression and a cold glare.
"You fucking bitch." She said,
"Not only did you hide Acht away but you also didn't tell me where you went with him. If it wasn't for me searching for you then you would've kept him hidden. I knew I couldn't trust a lying bitch like you.
Leislet didn't like the way she insulted her and accused her of lying. She didn't say anything about the matter because of the severity of any piece of information leaking and potentially could end up sending Acht to court.
"I did it for his best. You can't blame me for doing the right thing."
"A sly bitch would always be a sly bitch. I thought after everything we went through together that we somehow became friends but I ended up being naive thinking that was the case." Scarlett replied.
"Haah? Well of course, why wouldn't I do that? Acht and I are happy together."
"Happy together?"
Leislet puffed up her massive chest and replied proudly.
"Yes, we are living together like a married couple. We had so much fun until you showed up now and ruined our happy love life."
"Like hell I will believe that! You? Acht? Love life? What a stupid joke. Don't make me laugh." Scarlett said with a scoff.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe couldn't believe that Acht would actually be already in love with Leislet. She knew him very well and such an outcome was close to impossible.
"I don't care if you believe it or not, it's the case. Now, if you don't mind, go away and leave us alone."
Scarlett tapped her hands together and said.
"Ah yeah. Sorry to interrupt you guys. Ok, I will go now. Goodbye." She then started walking away.
Leislet felt weird about her behavior but she still closed the door nevertheless.
But, as she was about to turn around to walk away.
*BOOOM*
The door was blown into smithereens. Scarlett had jumped and double-kicked the door, destroying it into pieces in the process.
"Like hell, I would say that, bitch. You think I will just walk away after I finally found him? You might as well forget about that possibility." She said as she pulled out her sword with a very angry expression.
"Oh, wanna fight now? I will fucking kill you here and then end the problem!" Leislet replied as she pulled out her wand.
Then, both of them rushed toward each other with a loud shout.
But, before they could clash violently. A person appeared in the middle and threw the two weapons without touching them.
The two were slightly surprised by Acht's sudden appearance but they still didn't say anything. It was because his face alone made their faces pale considerably.
"What…the fuck are you doing, you two?" He asked with a calm tone. But, behind that calmness was a very cold tone that chilled them to the bone.
Acht then looked at the door and added.
"You think this is a fucking battlefield? It's a normal house. Blowing up the door will only make villagers be wary of us and maybe even kick us out. Have some self-control." He said.
Scarlett nodded her head with clear embarrassment and then apologize.
"I didn't think about that. Wait, I will fix it now." She said,
"No need to do that. Just be aware of your own actions. Anyway…come inside to talk, we can't make any more noise."
He left those words before he walked to the living room.
Scarlett nodded her head and then glared at Leislet secretly. The latter also glared back at her.
"Don't start another fight?" He added from the other room as if he predicted what exactly could happen at any given moment between the two women.
"Tsk." They clicked their tongues at the same time and then followed him to the living rooms silently.
'What a troublesome morning. Sigh, I can already predict where this is going.' He thought.
His relationship with Scarlett hadn't been the most stable one. He didn't know whether he should treat her as an acquaintance or just ignore her completely.
She had already apologized before so he didn't think much about it at the time but it was still slightly awkward.
"So, from what I heard. You found this place after searching for me? I can assume that you also want to stay here?" He said with his hand on his forehead.
Scarlett put her hand on her lap and nodded bashfully as if she was a small girl asking permission to buy some candy. It was a cute gesture to see.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Sigh, you know that this house is not for you guys to stay at. Leislet is already preparing her own house and you should if you want to stay here. I have no right to force you out of this village anyway."
"Can I…stay here until I build a house?" She asked hesitantly
"No!" Leislet shouted.
"Sigh, fine, whatever. But, if both of you fight or cause a ruckus I will make sure to kick you both out of the village and never allow you back here ever again. Understand?"
"But, Acht…"
"I said, understand?" He repeated his words.
Leislet sighed and nodded her head before secretly glaring daggers at Scarlett who was holding herself from jumping in the air from happiness.
'Fuck, everything is now ruined because of this bitch. Fuck! This is the worst! The fucking worst! Goddammit!' Leiselt cursed inside her head.
She could barely hold her boiling rage from exploding. It was all out of her control and she hated that.
But, at the same time, she didn't want to make Acht hate her. She already worked hard to make him get closer and closer to her and any small mistakes could ruin everything she built up during these months.
So, with gritted teeth, she looked at Scarlett and said with a fake smile.
"Welcome here, Mrs. Scarlett." She said,
"Oh, well thank you for your courtesy, Mrs. Leislet. Let's have a good time together." Scarlett replied with the same fake smile.
But, Acht could already see the sparks of electricity going back and forth between them.
'I hope they don't cause trouble or my peaceful life will be ruined.' He thought with a sigh before walking to the kitchen to make breakfast and prepare himself for the long day.
