55 Chapter 55 : Her name

"Big bro, Can you marry my sister? "

Usui was taken aback by his request, he looked at Hazel who had her eyes focused on the little guy with a wry smile.

He couldn't help but burst out laughing seeing her helpless.

Hazel's smile faded as she pursed her lips and thought, 'How rude!'

She sighed at her brother who stubbornly wanted to marry her off. She couldn't believe that it was just a week ago when her brother fully rejected the thought of marrying her off.

'Just what was with my brother and this guy. Why are they bonding so well?! '

She frowned as her eyes moved towards the guy who was laughing till tears appeared at the edge of his eyes.

"Rin-Rin, Why are you so desperate in wanting me to be married? Do you not love me anymore?" Hazel looked at her brother devastated.

Rin let go of Usui and rushed towards his dead sister. He hugged her legs tightly and looked up at her pouting.

"Sister, I love you the most... no, I love you more than anyone else. I don't want to be left alone when you leave. So if he marries you, I can follow along. Big bro will keep me company while you attend the academy."

Zelal's lips twitched as he huffed, 'Is my brother that jobless enough to babysit for you?!'

Hazel rubbed his head soothing him.

"But your big brother doesn't want to marry me. He doesn't like me. So tell me, do you want me to marry a person who doesn't love me?"

"What?" Rin was shocked hearing this. He turned towards big bro and asked him flabbergasted, "Big bro, do you not like my sister?"

Usui was speechless. One minute, he was gloating seeing Hazel's helpless actions but now that it turned on him, he smiled wryly. He glimpsed at Hazel who grinned at him.

His lips twitched as he thought, 'Why you... Did you have to take revenge? '

Seeing Usui not responding to his question, Rin took his silence as yes. He dropped his head dejectedly and asked, "So do you hate me too?"

"No.." Usui shouted spontaneously.

Rin's face brightened a little when he heard him. But, he was still depressed to hear that he disliked his sister.

Zelal popped in between and cleared the doubt the little guy had.

"He doesn't hate your sister. It is just that he loves another person, so he can't marry your sister."

Rin's small eyes widened as if he uncovered a big truth.

Stunned, Usui turned to his idiot brother who had his finger on his lips. He scooted closer to his brother and murmured, "It's better to say the truth than let the child think too much. You know kids these days tend to think a lot."

After speculating about it, Usui nodded and agreed with his brother.

Meanwhile, Hazel and the rest of the party was shocked to hear that the prince already had someone he liked.

When Zelal heard that, his eyes widened nervously. He looked at his brother's darkened shade.

'Oh my!'

The cold-hearted man was being called a womanizer. That must be the biggest joke of the century!

Liz snorted, "Looks like you don't like that person seriously."

She had thought Usui was better than those fake royals who appeared to be all gentle and faithful but looks like her judgment was wrong.

'All these royals only know to play around.'

Zelal on seeing the displeased expression on Liz's face looked wrong. He didn't want her to group him among those fools.

So he suddenly said, "No..No.. you are wrong. My brother fell in love only when he reached here. So technically, he didn't do anything wrong. Besides didn't he reject the princess?"

Even though Zelal wanted to clear his brother's name, the words he used made everyone present remember about the terrible event.

"Hah! He doesn't want our princess? Who does he think he is?"

"That's right.. our princess never wanted to marry, it is not him rejecting her. Even if he wanted to marry her, our beloved princess wouldn't agree to it."

The guards spoke crudely at the brothers. How dare they reject their beautiful princess!

Liz rolled her eyes while Hazel looked blankly at the change of events.

'Why! Why! Why did it not get better even though I explained it.' Zelal cried.

He looked pitifully at his brother, asking him to save him silently.

Rin tilted his head and asked amidst the chaos, "Big brother fell in love with a citizen of our kingdom? Is that person much better than my sister?"

That question silenced everyone as they jointly glared at the brothers. Zelal gulped when he looked at the guards who were ready to swallow them up the moment they utter a blunder.

"Big brother, is that true?"

Everyone's eyes turned towards the prince who looked at the little prince deeply. A moment later, he nodded his head which made many jaws open.

"Who the hell is better than our dear princess?"

Liz looked amazed at the prince who actually chose a commoner rather than a princess. 'Looks like my judgement was not wrong.'

Hazel shook her head before she glanced at her guards who immediately shut their mouths grudgingly.

She apologized on behalf of her people, "Please don't mind take any offence. They didn't mean any harm with their words."

Then, Hazel glanced at Usui and professed truly, "But I'm happy for you. I'm glad this journey at least helped you in finding your woman. If you need any help, you can always approach us."

Rin pouted as he argued, "But my sister is the most beautiful in this kingdom."

Hazel sighed at her brother who immediately hopped towards Usui, "Big bro, please introduce her to us. I want to know how she's better than my sister."

Usui nodded and said, "She's the best. If I have the chance to introduce her, I will." while he rubbed the little boy's head affectionately.

"We shall not trouble you more. We will see our way out." Hazel confessed and looked at her brother who was standing beside Usui.

She stretched her hand out for Rin, who reluctantly held it. Rin looked at his brother and waved him goodbye sadly.

Usui smiled as he saw them off but then something clicked on his mind.

"Err... Do you really mean that I can reach out to you when I want some help?"

Hazel and her entourage paused their steps by the door. She turned to him and nodded, "Yes. Do you need my help?"

Usui scratched his head awkwardly as he debated on whether to ask for help or not.

Hazel looked at his frowning face amusedly as she waited for him to decide. And when she saw his face clear up, she knew he made a decision.

"Can you help me find her? I want to tell her about my feelings before I leave."

She asked confused, "Don't you know where she is?"

Usui shook his head. "It's kind of hard to locate her. She appears and disappears from time to time."

Hazel rubbed her chin thinking deeply while Liz narrowed her eyes. 'It can't be!'

"Well, do you know anything about her that might help us locate her easily?"

"Well, all I know is her name. Her name is Freya."
