99th Actress Chapter 48

Chapter 48. A Visit from a Stranger

Lian was organizing Lepierre’s study with a serious expression.

She couldn’t help but be shocked after finding out the truth of what had happened to her. From the plot to use poison on her to the monster that invaded the duke’s house and almost killed her, she realized that it was all Angelina’s plan. This was revealed by Lepierre.

She knew that Angelina had a crush on Lepierre, but she had no idea that he would do the same evil to her as she did to the heroine. And this is not just simple harassment. She was using extreme measures.

In addition, the Count Piace family was exterminated and Angelina was currently missing. According to the original story, she should have tormented Rosalet, the future female protagonist.

In short, if it were according to the original work, now was not the time for her to be active. Furthermore, the count family should have been alive and well.

She doesn’t know when everything went wrong, but from the moment she was possessed in this world as Lian Roshart, who was just an extra, nothing went as she expected. Hence, she was even more confused.

Lian did not feel any sympathy for Angelina, who had committed an evil deed. It was natural, as she almost suffered great harm herself. The fact that several days had passed since she had run away and she had not been caught further aggravated her anxiety.

Lian was thinking, rubbing her throbbing head. At that time, Lepierre came into the study.

“Duke, is Angelina…?”

“Not yet. Since she must have used a magic tool, she wouldn’t have gone far. But there is one possibility….”

“Yes. What is that?”

“It could be different if she has a helper.”

Lian’s complexion darkened. It was surprising that she escaped in such a situation, but they couldn’t rule out the possibility that someone had helped her. Her heart felt even heavier.

“Could it be that Angelina has a helper….? I… I feel uneasy.”

His expression was soft as he looked at her. Lepierre spoke while stroking the head of Lian, who had scared eyes like a rabbit.

“Don’t worry. I will protect you in the name of the Duke of Arden.”

At that moment, Butler Jade knocked and spoke to Lepierre.

“Duke, His Royal Highness, the Crown Prince Heil is….”

Before Jade could finish speaking, the door burst open. It was Crown Prince Heil.

“It’s been a while, Lepierre.”

His handsome face smiled brightly and he greeted him with a happy expression.

“I greet you, Your Highness the Crown Prince.”

“Let’s not say such awkward things between us. Just keep doing what you’re doing.”

Lian bowed in bewilderment at his informal and friendly tone. She knew from the book that the two graduated from the same academy. However, when they met in person, they seemed to be quite comfortable together. Heil greeted Lian with her mischievous eyes shining.

“We… met, I guess?”

“Yes? Ah yes… I… I greet you, the Crown Prince.”

Lian couldn’t hide her bewildered expression and gave him her courtesy. He looked at her with interest and spoke to Lepierre.

“A cunning fox approached you while I was away. So I took action.”

Lepierre was often expressionless, but his face instantly changed to a colder one.

“Really? You did something useless.”

Lian was secretly surprised by the prince’s relaxed tone of voice when he told him to take it easy. The more surprising factor was how natural it seemed.

What’s even more interesting is that Heil continued speaking slyly without changing his expression even in response to his sharp reaction.

“As you know, I am a bit of a slob. Besides, she is your person, so my body took the initiative.”

Lepierre’s brow, who had been looking in a bad mood for some reason, furrowed.

“She is my aide, but she is also my ‘woman.’”

“Oh… is that so? You’re not there at any important moment again.…”

Lian’s heart pounded in the strange atmosphere. She’s not sure, but the atmosphere didn’t seem very good.

Lepierre’s expression became even colder and he spoke to Heil as if he was warning him. His voice was firm.

“I know your cheating ways, but this time you’re wrong. I hope you don’t mess with my woman.”

It seemed like he was talking about meeting Lian at the count’s residence last time. His words struck Lian, but there was nothing Lepierre didn’t know about her.

Lian lowered her head and he was smoothing her hair. Heil’s eyes were shining with interest as he looked at Lian and Lepierre.

“Hmm… I guess you’re serious. Do you think I might covet your woman? Don’t worry.”

“Okay. I’ll take care of her from now on, so don’t give her too much attention.”

He doesn’t know about Lian, but the count’s family had already gone under. Even the families of the ladies who had threatened Lian along with Angelina were under pressure.

Thanks to Lepierre’s actions behind her back, they were never allowed to enter the social world again.

“You seemed to be aloof about everything and didn’t pay any attention… And that’s because the object of your attention was a woman… It’s strange that I’m seeing you like this for the first time. I wonder what did that aide do. Anyway, since she is the one who changed you, I will cheer you from afar.”

Heil smiled sweetly at Lepierre’s sharp reaction. He had an attitude as if he was watching an interesting performance.

Lepierre’s eyebrows twitched at the words that seemed to subtly attack him, but he thought he had fully understood. He continued to stare at Heil in silence. There is no room for him to come between them, so he should just leave now.

“Yes. I came to see your face today, so I will stop by again soon.”

“If there is any progress in the investigation, please contact me.”

It meant that he should refrain from coming unless there’s any official duties. Lian had only questions in her mind due to the mysterious atmosphere.

Even though he was a duke, he was a crown prince in name. Although they seemed close, it felt like they were keeping each other in check.

Anyway, in the future, there were many instances where she would encounter the crown prince. For the sake of Lepierre and her own happy future, Lian renewed her resolve to actively connect him and the female lead, Rosalet.

Since the Crown Prince will soon fall in love with Rosalet, if they can connect well, Lepierre and her might end well too. Her anticipation was rising, wondering if she too could have a truly happy ending.

“What are you thinking so hard about?”

After the Crown Prince had left, Lepierre, who had been looking at her closely, saw Lian lost in her thoughts and spoke to her.

“Oh… no. I have something to think about for a moment…”

Lepierre wanted to get inside that little head. She probably doesn’t know how he feels.

“You can’t say that he’s handsome or anything like that, okay?”

There was a hint of subtle anger in his voice, and it seemed like he was concerned about that because he knew that Lian was weak against handsome faces. He didn’t even know that Lian’s feelings for him had grown.

“Ah… no! My ideal type is you! I like a manly… Heup!”

He pulled Lian towards him and their mouths met. His tongue suddenly invaded her, opened her mouth and penetrated deep inside her. Tasting every inch of her, he wrapped his tongue around hers.

Gently suckling her upper and lower lips alternately, the hot flesh entered her mouth again.

“Mhm…Nhuug….”

Lifting her to her desk where he could watch her as he kissed her, he positioned himself between Lian’s legs. As he continued to explore her mouth, he cupped her waist and the back of her head with his hands.

The strange sound of heavy breathing rang in the ears of the two people. Then he began to gently rub and press her vagina with his knee.

“Ahngh…….”

As he moved his knees, his hands had slipped under her clothes and were grasping her breasts.

Lepierre savored the large, soft feeling that filled his large hand. Pinching and turned the already hard nipple at the tip with his index finger, he massaged it in a circular motion along with the soft flesh.

Her kisses became more intense and Lian’s breathing became heavier. Her mouth was wide open, so Lepierre continued to lick the corners of Lian’s mouth as saliva flowed.

His knee, which at first subtly brushed her vagina, pressed against her clitoris, creating a squelching sound.

His thick lips, hands, and knees stimulated all of Lian’s weak spots. He continued to check her blushing appearance as he kissed her.

Kissing him, she let out a thick breath from time to time, not knowing that he was checking her own reaction in real time.

As he continued to exploit Lian’s weak points, his thick tongue slowly swept from her chin to her ears. And after pecking at that spot several times, he bit the earlobe in his mouth.

His moist lips were hot. After being stimulated for such a long time, Lian’s eyes became hazy.
