The Male Lead I Raised Is Obsessed With Me

s different.

I could see why the writer worked so hard to describe his appearance.

A simple description could not express his face.

He was the ultimate utopia of the face of everyone.

[pr/n: wut ahahaha]

I had a lot on my mind.

What I’ve seen in the novel was the male lead who had a good physique and was strong, not this frail young boy.

“Ugh… Mom…”

He sobbed as he grabbed my hand.

A part of my heart ached.

Come to think of it, he lost both of his parents at the age of 10.
It wasn’t a good situation.

They were both busy trying to save the family, so they couldn’t care less about the child.

There was no leader to take charge of the family, and they didn’t pay a lot of money.

“It’s really crazy…”

I kept sighing.

Abuse does not necessarily just mean hitting and harassing a child.

Indifference to the child and failure to provide adequate care to the child are also a type of abuse.

The clothes worn by the young duke now were too old and too small for him.

I felt even more sorry for him than when I looked back at myself before.

Still, I only had to take care of myself, but the male lead was also under a huge obligation to take responsibility as the Duke.

I forgot that this child was only 10 years old now because of his good performance as an adult in the original book.

I then held his hands in the air.

Due to the hot body temperature of his hands as I held them, I realized that this child was not just a ‘male lead’, but a person who was actually alive.

The child clenched his fingertips until they were white, afraid to let go of my hand even for a second in his dream.

“I’m not going anywhere.”

As I patted his chest and whispered to him, the child’s expression became a little more relaxed.
As if he understood what I was saying in his sleep.

“I’m not going anywhere so get well soon.”

And show me what color your eyes are.

A day had passed.

The child’s feverish condition didn’t go away.

Bella made a fire with the firewood she had barely saved to warm her room, and changed the towel on his forehead from time to time, but the fever didn’t subside.

“I think I should call a doctor.”

Bella’s face darkened at my words.

Calling a doctor was expensive, and there was no money in this castle.

And I didn’t even have a coin to my name.

Even though I knew he would survive if I followed the flow of the novel, I wasn’t at ease when I saw his pain in front of me.

I fastened my collar and got up from my seat.

“Who is in charge of housekeeping now?”

“The butler isn’t here right now.
Madam, are you going to get some money?”

“I can’t just let it go.
I need to do something.”

“I’ll come with you.”

Bella followed.

I pondered for a moment whether it would be beneficial to take Bella.

Will she get in the way of what I’m trying to do?

But there were no other options.

I opened the door first and looked back at Bella.

“I don’t mind you coming with me, but if I want to call the doctor, you have to be quiet.”

The main area of ​​Frug was the office where the butler resides and was in charge of housekeeping in the castle.

The man who occupied the large office space where dozens of people would have worked in the past was sitting there with an arrogant attitude even when I, the hostess of the family, had arrived.

“I need money to call a doctor…”

Hearing my words, Frug stroked his mustache as if he was contemplating it.

“I’m sorry, but it will be difficult.”

“Why?!”

Bella screamed, stomping her feet.

“Right now, the master, no, the Duke is in danger! We need to call the doctor right away!”

Unlike Bella, who was in a hurry, Frug couldn’t be more relaxed.

“Oh, Bella.
Don’t you know that our castle is in the mountains, and there is a lot of snow outside? In such a situation, to call a doctor will cost around the amount it takes for a commoner to live per month.
Right now, the family doesn’t have that much extra money.”

Bella knew the cost of living of a poor family very well, so she couldn’t say anything for a moment.

“Well, then, what about the Duke?! If his fever doesn’t drop, then, what should we do…!”

Bella finally burst into tears.

Frug said he was really sorry, and he comforted Bella.

But in my eyes, it looked like he was making fun of her.

“I hope the master gets over it soon.
He’s a strong person, so he will be able to overcome it.”

“Do you really have no money? What did the former Duke leave behind?”

There was an unpleasant look on Frug’s face from my comment.

“If I had money, why would I deliberately hide it?”

I saw a shiny mustache on his face compared to the poor Duke.
