Unruly Behavior Of A Curse Lawless Woman

Chapter 16 - Sadness and Jealousy

After speaking farewell to the family of three, Claret then took the silent gorgeous young man into the village and help him from what he has been asking from before.

"Theo, let's go, I will take you to Mr. John."

Smiling, Claret unconsciously took the hand of the young man beside her without any hesitation and shyness on her beautiful face, even though she felt a bit embarrassed when it was Theo who has done it from before, it was because of being a bit surprised by the young man action.

After all, on Earth, most of the young people nowadays have been kissing and even having s.e.x so early in their early years, everyone has been more open-minded rather than the old ways in the past.

People has been wearing skimpy and revealing clothes, especially when wearing their bikinis and boxer only on the beaches, so what is wrong with holding a young man's hands?

It was not like she was kissing him right? She was just being overly s.e.n.s.i.t.i.v.es and reacting weird a moment ago.

So with those thoughts on her mind, Claret confidently held the young man's hand and pulling him toward a certain direction after entering the gate of the village.

Unknown to her sudden action, a certain someone has been observing the beautiful and slender hand of the person that has held his hand, amber eyes deepening with unknown emotions and thoughts, though his lip couldn't help but curl up in a small smile.

After finally letting Theo handle what he wanted to do to the middle-age man that has been getting ready to travel to the town, the two of them left the village and finally managing to return home with the sun still high up in the sky.

"Claret, my dear, come here for a bit, I want to speak with you about an important matter."

Claret who has just arrived and entered their simple house, couldn't help but feel a bit doubtful about the sudden serious and apologetic expression on her Celine beautiful face.

The two women entered another room and leaving Squishy and Theo to handle all the ingredients, items and herbs that they manage to take in the Wood Forest.

Squishy just blinking his eyes before bouncing up and down as he started to take out all the objects that have been placed inside him, while Theo frowned with a bit of worried expression on his gorgeous face as he stared at a certain room.

"What's wrong mother? What do you want to tell me?"

Claret who was seated in a chair, instantly asked her Mother with a worried expression on her face, while feeling uneasy inside.

Celine who was watching the obedient and always attentive adopted daughter of her, couldn't help but let out a deep sigh before opening her mouth to speak, after all, even though she doesn't want to, but her nephew requires her help right now, and along the way, she can also get a special item for her daughter that will definitely help her control her magic power.

"My dear, I need to go out for a while. You don't have to worry, I just need to help my nephew for a bit but I will be back soon. Besides, I will also take a special item while I am at it and give it to you when I return. It will definitely help you control your magic power."

Emerald eyes underneath the white bandage couldn't help but widen while feeling anxious emotion inside her.

Are you leaving me? Those words are what she wanted to speak but have gotten stuck in her throat, knowing that she was reacting extremely bad, but she only forced herself to let out a smile of understanding to her mother Celine.

Just like always, no matter what her mother does, she can only accept it with an understanding expression, disliking the fact of causing her mother to be sad and burden by her own emotions and problem, to a single mother that has been taken care of her child, Claret has learned to always solve her problem if she could before going to her mother if she was unable to handle it.

Besides that, Celine has a nephew? A relative?

But now that Claret thinks deeply about it, Celine is different from her biological mother where the two of them only have each other in her old world.

Celine also has another important family in this world beside her which makes Claret not feeling well and secretly jealous.

"I see… alright... "

After letting out those words which contain a bit of sadness, Claret immediately flashes a bright smile at her Mother that started to show a concerned look on her beautiful m.a.t.u.r.e face before Claret took hold of both of her Mother's hand to console her and tell her that she was alright, just a bit sad but alright.

"Although, I am saddened that you have to leave Mother, but I understand. Besides, you will be back right?"

"Silly child, of course, I will! I'll also bring you a gift when I come back."

"Hmm! I can't wait for it!"

Smiling gently, Claret then started to tell her mother to take care of herself, keep herself safe and away from danger and trouble, especially when she just learned that Celine has to leave right away since her nephew really needed her to arrive faster to where he was at.

Before long, Claret, Celine, Theo, and Squishy could be seen standing outside the simple house in the Wood Forest.

"My child, mother will be back soon, take care of yourself alright?"

Gently c.a.r.e.s.sing Claret's head, Celine then turned to the two other living beings that have been silently watching from the start.

"Squishy and Theo, watch over Claret until I get back alright? You have to keep her safe."

Suddenly, the woman manage to look completely threatening despite showing those gentle expression on her beautiful face, causing Squishy and Theo to unconsciously nod their heads.

"Mother, take care… I will be waiting."

"Hm… my daughter, I'll be back soon."

After those words, Claret, Squishy, and Theo watch at the disappearing figure of Celine in the distance.

When it was completely sure that Celine is gone, Claret just let out a deep sigh, completely ignoring the two beings that have been observing her reaction, seemingly fearing that she was going to start crying soon before walking away and going into another part of the Wood Forest.

"Eh? Claret? Where are you going?"

Squishy couldn't help but ask out before floating to follow behind, finally quieting down after sensing the current emotion of his bound partner.

Theo that has been silent the entire time, unable to utter words of comfort which is unusual since he was really good at it when it comes to other people, but somehow he was unable to spoke words of comfort to the young woman when he thoughts about how he doesn't want to speak those words that don't contain a hint of sincere feelings on it when he was usually speaking to other people.

It just seemed that he rather treat Claret differently, and not only a mere stranger.

So with those thoughts alone, Theo just stayed silent as he too follows soon after, worried that the young woman will go hurt herself.
