《The Villainess Does It With Class》Chapter 34 - Kai
Advertisement
When I was sure that the two children were comfortable, and were soundly asleep, I left their room. My feet then brought me to the mansion's study. There were a lot of questions floating in my head, and I wanted answers. There's still time before dinner anyway, so I will spend it researching Lost's case.
In the end, though, my efforts were futile. Because I could not find any single clue regarding her.
"This is making my head, ache..." I muttered as I put down another book that I skimmed in record time.
And yes, my headache is starting again. These damn migraines...
I leaned back on the chair and stared at the chandelier. It sparkled like dazzling diamonds and almost hypnotizing to look at. .
There's one more place that I could look to and I am sure the information would be there. The Tower of Archives, or as known as, The Tower of Magic.
If I really want to know, I could ask my brother to bring me to the palace. But that also means I would see Janus. Seeing Janus is still not on my to-do list though... At least, not for now, however curious I might be in him.
After all, it is said in the novel that Janus Cromwell is the most beautiful man in all of Rosenthal. If he is seriously the most superior in looks among all those male leads, of course, I would wonder what he looks like.
Imagine being the most handsome-looking out of Lukas, the rumored womanizer, and a heartbreaker; Nathaniel, the tsundere cool guy; and the flower prince, Ezekiel.
'He must be looking like some deity then or whatever is superior out there if that is the case...'
But that look is dangerous too. He killed me in the novel ultimately. I mean not me, but novel Nadia.

'I sure am getting too comfortable living here huh. Feels like my days in the modern world were a dream and not the reality...'
Someone knocks on the door and Erin comes in.
"Milady, it's time for dinner."
Ah, it's late now... I forgot to check the time.
"Are the kids still asleep? How's the little guy?" I asked as I sauntered to her.
Erin then closes the door behind us, "They are both sound asleep, milady! The temperature of the boy has gone down either, he would surely be fine the day after tomorrow."
"Hmmm... That's good then."
----------------***
Dinner came, and when dad joined us, I had asked him if the two children could stay with us. He was hesitant at first because we don't know their real backgrounds. But he agreed in the end after I begged him, though.
We can bring them to an orphanage if we want to, but that would be too unfeeling on our part if we could afford to adopt them anyway. Moreover, there's that situation with Lost either.
Nathaniel did not object and remained silent in regards to the subject. I assumed that he too agrees to my request.
Two days had passed since then. Mari had bought clothes for both Lost and the nameless boy. The latter had also finally recovered and had opened his eyes the next day. He was wary at first and would hide underneath the bed covers when anyone comes in.
It took half a day before I got to properly talk to him without him avoiding me. It was also because of Lost's effort of telling her friend that I am not going to hurt them.
Now we're here in the garden, enjoying the sun. I have no classes today, so I get to play with them. Lost were beside him, munching on a cookie while the other was fiddling with a cube. It was a Rubix cube, which surprised me yet again that it also exists here.

I was in front of them while Mari and the others were at the side, talking to each other.
My eyes turned to him, "Do you remember your name?"
The child stopped and looked at me, then shook his head. I have asked him about his name before but it appeared that he doesn't know it. He said he forgot, so I could not find anything about him. Where he came from, and the reason why he's on the streets with Lost.
If he could not remember anything, then that means I could not ask him about Lost either. Gathering intel was a failure.
Anyway, he hasn't appeared that much in the book, so everything about him is one big puzzle to me.
"Do you want me to give you one?" I asked.
It wouldn't be practical if I just refer to him as a kid, little boy, or child every time. Giving a name would make things easier if he's going to live with us onwards.
The child shyly looked down at the cube and nodded. This was also one of his characteristics, he doesn't talk much. I bet he and Nathaniel would get along just fine, and would probably understand each other without opening their mouths.
'Heh~ I could imagine it.'
I racked my brain for something good. Just as I said before, I couldn't remember what Estelle named him, so I will just come up with another.
I silently studied him. From his shaggy black hair to those beautiful blue eyes of him, the color of the ocean.
Ocean...
"Kai," I declared, which made both Lost and him look at me, "I will name you Kai."
Kai means sea in Hawaiian and it definitely suits him.
The child's blue eyes sparkled like the sea under the sun, "Kai..." he whispered.
"Do you like it?" I asked.
A small smile appeared on his lips, "Mmm..."
"I'm glad," I mumbled.
Naming a person sure is hard. But Kai... I like the sound of it. Fufufufu~
"Kai is your name now? It sounds pretty," Lost commented at the side as she drinks her tea. Her hair was clipped to the side which made her look so adorable.
'I do not know what she is but she sure is cute...'
Kai glances at her and chomps on a cookie, he looks at peace and happy.
'They are both adorable-looking, what do I do...'
