Chapter 206 - Ch. 206 Are You Married?

The atmosphere of Kaylee's cafe in Delft was vivacious because of the presence of a large family with their young grandchildren.

Cafe Familia serves coffee that men like and provides milk and desserts and children's favorite snacks. It's no wonder the cafe has become famous at all ages, especially when kids love watching Kaylee play the cello.

The little children sat quietly in the children's chairs while watching Kaylee's performance. Every now and then, Kaylee would smile at them and give them a song-guessing game. If they answer correctly, the children will get a lollipop from her as a reward.

Seeing the interaction between Kaylee and the visitors made Robert realize something.

Kaylee was not a timid and meek girl who will hide whenever she meets a stranger. On the other hand, the girl seemed to be adaptable and easy to get along with others even though it was the first time they met.

'She was deliberately acting like that to hide her true self. Isn't she more wicked than me?'

At that time, Robert did not understand what Roxy meant. After meeting with Kaylee again and having a long conversation with her, only then did he know.

Both Roxy and Kaylee are the daughters of a famous Hades who fears nothing and mercilessly to those who intend to harm his family. If the two girls had been born as men, perhaps the two of them would have fought each other for Hades' position.

However, both of them were born as girls. And coincidentally, both had such pure hearts that they didn't want to see blood in front of their eyes.

Both of them did not want to continue the position of Hades, let alone become the leader of an organization filled with mafia members or ex-criminals.

Plus… they would never know who would betray and poison them.

Robert remembered that his own grandfather had the heart to kill his own son because he felt threatened even though his father had never rebelled. When his grandfather was about to kill him because the older man thought Robert wanted his power, his uncle... Hades III poisoned his grandfather's food.

If they continued to live in the Folklands and didn't leave Hades' organization, they would have to kill if they didn't want to be killed.

Therefore, Mr. Zouch decided to leave because he didn't want to lose his other daughter. Robert also chose to go because he had no one in the country.

Fortunately, Kaylee… Roxanne, who thought she was Kaylee, could live in peace, even though Mr. Zouch never calmed down and kept his daughter's face from spreading.

As long as Roxy's memories had not returned, they would never stop worrying about the girl. At least in terms of sensitivity and adapting to the situation, Roxy was more skilled than Kaylee.

That's what everyone believed, but now Robert knew Kaylee was more than keen to adapt to an unfamiliar place. She even succeeds owned a coffee business!

Robert took another sip of his drink, smiling when he saw a boy kissing the girl's cheek. Why did he feel Kaylee was ready to become a mother?

Is the girl married? Ah, he forgot to ask this.

Robert was still sitting where he was, waiting for Kaylee to finish exchanging pleasantries with the visitors. It seemed almost everyone who came to this place had known Kaylee and became her friend.

'Kaylee, you're all grown up now.'

If Roxy had known that Kaylee now had a lot of friends, she would have screamed with joy. After all, Roxy was always annoyed when someone made fun of Kaylee and frustrated that Kaylee preferred to hide in a corner.

Ah, he wanted to tell the Zouch family, but…

Not yet.

"Robert." Kaylee's call broke Robert's thoughts. "How was it?"

"Not bad."

"Just not bad?" Kaylee pursed her lips before sitting across from her cousin.

"I'm just teasing you. You're all grown up, little girl. In the past, you wouldn't dare to be surrounded by people, but now you're not afraid anymore."

Kaylee reviewed her sweet smile in response to her cousin.

"But I'm curious at something."

"What is it?"

"Are you married?"

"What? Of course not. I don't even have a boyfriend."

"Ha? Why? How about that barista?" Robert turned to the handsome young man named Logan, who was currently serving coffee orders.

Kaylee also turned to the young man while placing both hands on the table.

"He's a friend."

"But he likes you."

"I know. But I only see him as a friend."

"Poor guy. Now I felt sympathy for him."

"Robert. Not funny."

Robert chuckled and then thought of something. "Perhaps, you still had not forgotten that guy?"

"…" Kaylee was silent for a moment. "It's not that I couldn't forget him. But I don't want to open my heart to anyone."

"Why?"

"Every time I like someone, it always ends badly."

When she liked that guy, that person rejected her with nasty and hurtful words. Kaylee tried to forget it and let the man go. She was even willing to approach her sister so that she could make up with her.

Her relationship with Roxy was very close to the point they were almost inseparable, but it became strained only because of a man.

Who would have thought she met the black moon there and slowly, her heart began to open again.

But… the plane crash happened.

Somehow she felt that every time she opened her heart to someone, something terrible would happen.

That's why she didn't want to open her heart again and chose to live as she was now.

"Bad experiences?" Robert didn't understand what her cousin is thinking and thinks Kaylee had had a bad romance.

"Something like that." was her short response. "How about you? Isn't it your fortieth birthday soon? Oh, my! You're already old?!"

"What's with that tone? Are you mocking me?"

Kaylee gave a cute giggle while shaking her head. "If I didn't know you, I would have thought you were still in your late twenties or early thirties. You haven't changed much the last time we met."

"Of course. Our gene is superior to others." Robert's comment drew laughter from Kaylee. "And for your information, I have someone I want to be my wife."

"You have? Who is it? Do I know her?"

"It's Wendy."

"Wendy? I don't know her."

"Ah, I mean… It's Gwen."

Gwen? Kaylee tried to remember where she had heard this girl's name before, and then she remembered her sister's close friend.

It's Gwendy?!
