Chapter 277
Kyle watched as Andromeda left the place. The hallucination she experienced was terrible and she bawled so hard. She wanted to release the stress so she decided to leave. Her stress would only get worse if she stayed there any longer.
Kyle was smirking the whole time, it was a good harvest to know that Andromeda had someone important to her. Perhaps Kyle could use it to subdue her, just like what she did to Niña. Using Mikael as a threat and pushed Niña to kill the first Princess, Celine, his wife from his past life. He realized that using people is not that hard, all he had to do was to threaten them using their loved ones.
"You are too hard, I told you that playing with people's hearts will bring you disaster. Why don't you be honest, hm?"
Miriam appeared behind him. She was there the whole time, silently watching them training. To be honest, she was slightly jealous because Kyle put importance on Andromeda these last few days. Although she couldn't admit that fact, she had to drink another bottle of wine to have the courage to say that she was jealous.
In her arms, Lemar was sleeping peacefully as his hands clutched on her dress. These days Lemar started to regain his activeness as a child, he perceived that the atmosphere between his parents was getting warm. As for his promise of acting as an adult, the kid was still young and he had already forgotten about it. You know, children easily lose interest in things.
Lemar snuggled to her and Miriam couldn't help but smile. Seeing her precious son sleeping like an angel was a blessing for her. She experienced hardship, losing her parents and brother, but the thing that keeps her alive was Lemar and the family she created. She knew that Niña and the others were looking at her using their own ways.
Yesterday, Lane sent her a message that the lingeries that Miriam delivered were too tight and provocative. Miriam giggled recalling that. Obviously, she knew Lane's exact vital statistics but she wanted to make fun of her. Seeing her cute sister pouting was good for her heart, she wanted to pinch her cheeks.
Miriam saw that Kyle was staring at Lemar with his deep eyes. If Miriam didn't have a special time with this man for the past few days, she would never understand him. But now, Miriam knew that Kyle wanted to touch Lemar.

"Do you want to carry him?"
Miriam smiled, Kyle flinched and shook his head after a few seconds in deep thoughts. She was dissatisfied but Miriam didn't show it, she was smiling the whole time.
"Ah, where am I again? Yes about Andromeda, shouldn't you at least give her some time to breathe. It's not like the world will go crumble tomorrow. "
"It's better to be ready than not. Andromeda is a game-changer, the world needs her power. That's why I'm doing my best to guide her on the path she could take."
"The world needs her power you say. But all I can see is that you getting anxious about something. You are trying to make the people around you crazy. What? Does word war 3 gonna happen? Sometimes you have to relax."
Miriam had a point and even Kyle didn't have any word to retort. What's the feeling of being the only one who knows that the world is going to crumble? Kyle was desperate to stop that from happening. Yet he knew that he couldn't do it on his own. That's why Kyle used them, especially Mikael, Niña, and Miriam. These three, particularly, lost a lot because of him.
Well, Kyle is not omnipotent and he didn't know that the Hydra could activate its curse despite dying. As for Niña, he knew the consequences, but he didn't feel any guilt. To be exact, he didn't feel any guilt towards the sins that he created. They were all for the greater good, he believed.
"It doesn't matter. I will use everything."
"Okay~"
Miriam sighed, she knew that she couldn't do anything about this. The decision was all on Kyle. She hoped that at least Kyle would give Andromeda time to breathe.
'So that I can play with him for some time…'
She pouted and started walking away. They were closer now but there was still an obstacle that she couldn't penetrate.
"Wait."
"Hm?"
"Later… I want to talk to you."
Kyle averted his gaze, perhaps blushing. Miriam smiled beamingly, she immediately understood what he meant.
"Yeah, let's talk later. Do you want whiskey?"
Miriam giggled and walked away with happiness written on her face. At least she knew that Kyle finds her attractive. She was satisfied with that one. She was humming as Lemar clutched on her dress like a baby.
Kyle watched her leaving, he had an indescribable expression as he looked at them. What is he thinking? Nobody knows.

"How about the strawberry cake? I like that one."
Niña said while playing with her fork. Together with her, Titania was licking her lips as she gazed at the strawberry cake. She looked at Niña and the woman nodded, giving her the approval of eating the cake. Titania didn't hesitate any more and gobbled up the cake. Women always have a second stomach for desserts.
"How about you? There is still another piece."
"N- No, I can't anymore."
Niña looked at Adalyn who was tapping her stomach. The young girl was already full, she ate four pieces of cake. She was actually guilty of consuming a great amount of sugar. Thankfully, Adalyn is a Hunter and her figure will always be fit.
To be honest, Adalyn didn't know why Niña brought her here but she didn't reject her because Niña was holding boxes of cakes. How could she say no? Even Andromeda urged her to go with Niña. She said that Adalyn needed to have some time to enjoy herself. Adalyn always watched her and she didn't have time for herself because of that.
Adalyn was looking at Niña and Titania, she knew nothing why she was here and she decided to be quiet.
Niña and Titania were eating bite-size cakes as if they were no tomorrow. They were in bliss.
But this was not the reason why Niña was here. She wanted to learn about…
