Lyle seemed to speechlessly stare at her for a while as he was blanked out and then uncontrollably and for an unknown reason, the corners of his lips started to rise.
What type of leap was that? Lyle raised an eyebrow and smiled at her.
Lyle's gaze stopped on Moori's beautiful face.
He then nodded, the corners of his mouth raising playfully: “I'm not doing something as shameless as that. I'm merely a kid without nothing to do. I'm not leading anyone in their noses as what you've stated. I'm just a little, innocent and genius prince ... nothing else~"
Rolling her eyes, Moori playfully scolded him. This young fellow was simply ruffling people’s feathers.
Moori shrunk her eyes and gradually sighed.
She wonders how this monstrous child was raised. He’s only a twelve years old kid, but he’s so calm, aloof, domineering, really strong and very smart.
She slowly opened her beautiful eyes and stared at the roguish young prince.
In a gentle voice, she said, “Unexpectedly, you are really the most frightening man I've ever met, you roguish prince.”
Staring at her expression, Lyle grinned and broke out into laughter.
Only after Moori began scolding him again did he stopped and returned his focus towards the papers in his hands.
Hearing the fading laughter of that youth, Moori's face slightly loosened up.
Looking at his handsome innocent face, she couldn’t help but laugh inside her with a face full of bitterness.
Looking at Lyle who returned to work, Moori took her cup back to the sofa and pretended to concentrate on the documents she was holding.
Afternoon tea is over.
Moori managed to focus for a little while, but she wandered off again. She remembered that she still had another question she didn’t ask yet ––
How did he know all of these things?
She doubted that he had received education regarding this beforehand.
As if someone in their right minds would teach a little child; even if he was a prince, something as complicated as this.
Lyle even talked about some strange knowledge.
There were lots of words she didn’t understand, like cost concept, double entry system, accounting equation, Financial and Vertical Analysis, Ante and Post-dating, Negotiable Instruments and many other more, but his face looked radiant when explaining it so it just slipped on her mind this entire time.
And what's more, these things were too profound and interesting when he explained them.
These concepts are too advanced ... !
How did he know it?
Where did he learned these things from?
Moori sank into the riddle and didn’t realize that once again, her gaze had moved from the papers to the person behind the desk.
The office was still quiet, only the light ' shik-shik ' sound of the pen writing in the papers could be heard.
But gradually, the writing sounds disappeared. Lyle suddenly stopped, his head not
moving up: “Darling, if you keep on looking, I can’t stand it.”
Because of her lack of focus, Moori heard his voice but didn’t understand what he
meant.
It took a long while for her to understand and then … …
Okay, Moori almost self-combusted.
She didn’t want to ask anything anymore t~t
After realizing what he said, Moori was a bit embarrassed and since she didn’t have much left to ask, decided to shut up and act invisible.
Moori spent the entire afternoon in this kind of very low efficiency mode.
After a few hours, Lyle called her and gave her the papers in his hands to her,
explained all the things he found out and then walks to sit down on the desk to
return working.
Seeing this, Moori really didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
It seemed like Lyle was now the Academy's acting Headmaster and her being as only a secretary.
... ...
T-T
But she couldn't deny the fact that he was really too amazing.
It seems like he was more fitted to become the Headmaster compared to her.
He did work efficiently and effectively and the things she took two days to finish was only a day for him.
However, Moori was still worried about his health.
Whenever he was engrossed in his work, he would immediately forgot the time and
continue even without eating lunch and dinner.
She was even worried that he would not take some rest and often scold him to take it easy.
They are not really in such a hurry.
Thankfully, Lyle wasn't that inhuman ... ...
He would always obey what Moori told him.
You could be reading stolen content. Head to the original site for the genuine story.
The day is already coming to an end. The beautiful orange sky had already lit the whole world ablaze for the last moment of the day.
But Lyle was still working inside the Headmaster's office.
He reached for the next document.
In this moment, there was a soft knock on the door .
Lyle heard it as he quickly turned around, he then lifted his head from reading a document.
His eyes were sharp and deep, which made him look as stern as his work attitude.
"Hmm? Ah, who is it?"
Moori quickly responded.
"Good Afternoon Headmaster, I-Is Lyle inside?"
A familiar voice responded back.
Moori looked at Lyle who nodded and returned reading the papers he was holding.
"Come in."
However, the one who entered the room was not only a person but two people.
A girl with golden hair and fox ears who was smiling while revealing her two dimples and a girl with flaming red hair entered.
---This were the Princess of the Beast Kingdom; Princess Feme Foxtail and the current no. 1 student of the Academy; The Thunder Empress, Angelica Strauss.
They both bows politely as they entered the room.
Lyle didn't noticed that Angelica was also there as he thought that only Feme came after hearing her voice just now.
He only immersed his complete attention on his work.
As soon as they entered, Princess Feme and Angelica were shocked and they both took a deep breath at the same time as they looked at Lyle who was sitting on the desk like it was very natural while reading some documents.
Why is he sitting there as if it was natural ... ?
It's as if he was the Headmaster himself!
Both of them thought the same thing.
They then turned their eyes towards Moori who was sitting in the sofa, holding some papers while looking at them with a bitter smile.
"Leave him be, he suddenly decided to hijack my position." Moori jokingly said.
Lyle's eyes are still on the report. "I'm not hijacking anything, darling."
Lyle works with a seriousness.
The orange sunlight outlines his body highlighting his youth. The two could not help but stare in awed.
“Why are you here, Feme. Did you need anything from me?” Lyle asked still without raising his head from the papers.
“Oh.” Princess Feme snaps out of it.
She realizes her fiancée's “beauty” has made her confused and breaks into a cold sweat.
Of course, dangerous animals usually look a certain way. Her monstrous former fiancée is one such example.
Turning to close the door, Feme answered.
"Ah, no ... I was just worried because you didn't show up these past three days. When I visited your house, Sasha told me that you were here."
Lyle is still reviewing the report. “I see ... can you wait for a minute, I'll be done
soon.”
Feme nods, afraid to disturb him and standing stiffly waiting for him to finish.
She was actually mesmerized by his smooth voice and could only stood on the same spot before.
"Headmaster, what's the meaning of this? Why is that brat in your desk?" Couldn't held it anymore, Angelica curiously asked Moori who was sitting in the sofa.
Hearing her voice, Lyle who was engrossed in his work suddenly raised his head, surprised.
Lyle was immediately startled.
Originally, getting to see a former fiancée again had made his heart thoroughly stirred up and excited.
But when he met up with her, there wasn’t just one, instead, there were two. Lyle was simply too excited to the point his heart almost couldn’t take it anymore!
But he still held those feelings and acted like a professional.
"Oh, so you're also here, Biri-biri?"
"Don't call me that! I have a name and you know it!"
"Well, just wait for a minute, I will be done soon, so sit there for a moment."
Glancing at her and Feme, Lyle gestures with his chin to the sofa.
Looking at his behavior, the two girls couldn't really believe it.
He was acting as if he owned the place.
However, even though they held such thoughts, they still followed his words and sit besides the ( REAL ) Headmaster who was looking at them amusingly.
"Don't worry about him. I asked him to do this so that he can forget about the happenings outside while waiting for the things to cool down."
After a while, Lyle finally finished reading the last document for the day and slowly stood up while stretching his arms, his stern eyes softened as he smiled brightly.
