The villainess that got pregnant with the crown prince's child decided to run away - Chapter 46

Translator: Darling | Editor: Coming soon…

“Lord Edward…” 

I started walking around the forest, heading towards the direction of Hazrat while looking around for him.

I searched around for a while and found Lord Edward staggering forward.

Though I healed him with magic, that doesn’t mean that he recovered the blood that he lost.

I’m sure that he’s feeling extremely anemic right now.

Regardless of his determination to push forward, he’s in no condition to be walking around.

After seeing him, I jogged towards him.

“…So, you’re back, huh?”

Lord Edward muttered while he continued to walk. Not once did he turn back to look at me. The sounds of his footsteps were heavy.

“I have brought you clothes. There was money left over, so I bought some food as well. When was the last time you ate? They say you can’t fight on an empty stomach, so please eat.”

“It’s not like I’m going to a battlefield, you know…”

He frowned; a bit of a wrinkle appeared between his brows.

Either way, I ignored his complaints and forcefully handed him the food that I bought.

“Please eat! You’re going to die before you get back to your country at this rate!”

“Fine, fine.”

He says while opening the bag that I brought full of food.

The bag had foods that could be consumed, such as sandwiches and skewers. The trip back to the empire will take a few days, so I also had brought bread, dried meats, and dried fruits.

The dried fruits were particularly expensive, but since I was able to buy Lord Edward’s clothes very cheaply, I had money to spare.

“You should eat as well.”

He says with his hands stretched out to hand me over some food.

“No, this is something that I bought with your money. I can’t possibly have any.”

I slightly pushed his hands back.

“… Are you planning on having me eat things that you can’t eat?”

He says in a low tone while staring at me with piercing eyes.

His gaze had a hint of murderous intent.

Did he perhaps think that I was trying to poison him…?

I guess I can understand, he is the crown prince after all.

It wouldn’t be strange at all if someone tried to have him poisoned.

Indeed, it wouldn’t be strange at all if someone tried to have him assassinated.

“I-It’s not poisoned!”

“In that case, you should eat too.”

“T-thanks for the meal…”

If I don’t eat, then he might think that everything that I bought was poisoned and end up throwing it all.

I decided to eat and placed the food that I bought into my mouth bit by bit.

“As you can see, I’m completely fine, so please don’t worry and have some.”

“…Hmph.”

As soon as he saw that I finished eating, he started eating as well.
