Female Novel
Chapter 1984
Lambert's expression shifted subtly as he glanced at Estelle, then turned and asked, "What's the
trouble?"
"The bio lab on the first floor of the castle has been trashed, and the guards there spotted a figure
resembling Estelle," Huff reported, his voice steady and without inflection.
"A resembling figure?" Lambert stepped protectively in front of Estelle and scoffed, "Quite the jokester,
aren't we, Mr. Huff? Why don't you take a look around the pub and see how many folks resemble
Rella? And what makes you so sure it was her? Besides, you can tell Raiden that Rella was with me all
night long, never left my side!"
Huff inquired, "Are you certain Estelle was with you the entire time?"
Without hesitation, Lambert nodded, "Absolutely!"
Huff returned the nod, "Well, that settles it then. Sorry for the intrusion."novelbin
With that, he turned and walked away with his entourage.
Lambert found Huff's demeanor odd and watched his retreating figure. Suddenly, something clicked,
and he turned to Estelle, "We were together all night, right?"
She nodded, "Yes, we were."
Lambert chuckled softly, "Let's head back."
Estelle agreed with a nod, and they left the pub together.
Back at the villa, as Estelle began to ascend the stairs, Lambert called out, "Rella!"
She turned, meeting his solemn gaze, "What is it?"
Lambert's eyes, deep and probing, moved closer, his curiosity piqued, "Who are you, really?"
Estelle's gaze remained calm, "Estelle."
Lambert smiled wryly, "Alright then. Doesn't matter who you are, I don't really care either way."
"Hm?" Estelle didn't catch his drift.
"Be my girlfriend!" Lambert blurted out, "I think I've fallen for you!"
His confession was sudden, but Estelle remained unmoved, her expression unchanged, "I'm flattered,
but I don't like you!"
With that, she continued her ascent.
"Rella, no, Estelle!" Lambert strode up, blocking her path, looking down at her, "I'm not joking. I really
like you. You're nothing like the other girls I've dated."
He couldn't fathom why he'd fallen for this girl, who, despite her beauty, was as cold as ice, nothing like
the adorable girlfriends of his past.
For years, the only woman who ever truly captured his heart was his goddess. No other girl had ever
come close.
But this time was different!
When he betrayed her, the thought of her suffering kept him up at night. He had even risked a
confrontation with Raiden to rescue her.
Initially, he told himself it was guilt, but then he realized it wasn't. He ached when she had nightmares,
worried about her well-being, and found his eyes constantly following her.
He thought she, like his goddess, had found a way into his heart.
"Why is it impossible?" Lambert frowned, then had a realization, "Are you worried about the difference
in our social standing?"
"I won't have other women. I promise you that! After my wife and I produce an heir, I can even stop
sharing a bed with her—" Reаd at Dram?nоvеls.coм
"Shut up!" Estelle cut him off sharply, her gaze icy, "You're seriously deluded!"
"You don't believe me?" Lambert asked earnestly.
Estelle shook her head, "It's not about trust. I'm in love with someone else, deeply in love."
Lambert raised an eyebrow, "The one you said is better than me?"
"Yes!" Estelle nodded without hesitation.
