When You Turned Your Back On Me, We Became Strangers

WYTYBMWBS I Chapter 25

“Should it have been done by now?”

Riley became anxious when he couldn’t see the boxes he had gathered on one side.

It wasn’t because I broke the window earlier. She somehow felt like something shouldn’t be left alone, so she sent Ren to the warehouse.

‘Well, is there anything wrong?’

Riley waited for Ren because he had to pick up items from the warehouse that needed to be delivered.

“Are you sure you want to work here?”

Ren grumbled as he approached the warehouse. He was even more nervous now that a guy He didn’t like was standing right in front of him.

The moment I opened the door to the warehouse, I saw boxes lined up and lined up.

“What did you come for? “I did everything myself.”

“I guess there’s no work at the imperial palace these days?”

“Do I look like the kind of person who would give up my job and come back?”

Ren didn’t bother to answer. Because it seemed that way.

I looked around the warehouse, shrugging my shoulders at the fact that I had done a better job organizing it than I expected. However, the items that were supposed to be there were not visible.

“… … “What happened to the things here?”

Carver, who was leaning against the door and looking at Ren, tilted his head. Even when I thought about it, there was nothing else. I just organized the same types of colors and products into one row.

“I don’t know what you’re talking about.”

“I’m talking about the products lined up here by the door.”

Ren was surprised and looked inside the well-organized warehouse. Carver lifted her chin and looked proud.

“Ah, that? “I organized everything myself.”

“… … You tell the truth. “Are you here to ruin it?”

As Carver narrowed his eyes, Ren placed his hand on his forehead and fell into a deep sleep.

‘Kill that bastard, save him?’

Ren told Carver, who was looking aggrieved, what was wrong.

The items that Carver had put together were products that had to be shipped. That too today.

In the end, Ren and Carver had to search through the rearranged warehouse to find the product.

It was literally like going through a hard time twice.

Even before the morning work was over, Ren ran to Riley and had a serious conversation. The subject was Carver’s employment.

And the result was obvious even without looking.

“What should I do? hmm… … . “I think recruiting will be difficult.”

Riley felt somewhat sorry.

But it was a decision she really had no choice about.

‘I told them to nail it and they destroyed the wall…’ . I think the store will go out of business if I hire him.’

Ren crossed his arms fiercely and was cursing with his eyes at Carver. Above all, Riley felt that if Carver hired him because he was not on good terms with Ren, he would get tired of being caught between the two.

“really sorry.”

“What are you sorry for? “If that guy just destroyed our store today, it would be worth three months’ salary.”

Carver couldn’t bear to look up at Ren’s words and sighed.

‘… … Havan, that guy must have known.’

That he would be fired in less than a day. Strangely, although she worked hard, she ended up having an accident in everything she did.

I was so embarrassed that even I couldn’t ask for it to be written, so I kept my mouth shut.

“I will reimburse you. “I’ll stop by next time I come to buy a gift.”

“uh? no. are you okay. “Ren restored everything, so she didn’t lose anything.”

Riley waved his hand to dissuade him.

But Carver was already so disappointed in himself that he heard nothing. Ren put his hand on Carver’s shoulder and left the store.

“Kukkuk, so who would say that His Highness the Crown Prince would do such a trivial thing?”

“… … shut up.”

My face turned red from the overwhelming shame. What on earth did he do in front of Riley?

“I applied to see her face… … . shit.”

As I was thinking about that trivial thing that Ren was talking about, all I saw was her shocked face. It was an inevitable step back.

“You came back early.”

“… … “You knew, right?”

“Well, everyone except you probably knew even if you didn’t say it.”

Carver sat down in his chair and tilted his head back. He really felt like he wanted to die.

“So have you checked?”

“She’s right.”

“Is that true! Now!”

The lower half shouted and cheered. I was finally able to escape this hellish work grave. Havan urged Carver to bring him in immediately.

“no.”

“Why not!”

“Ren, that bastard doesn’t plan on coming back yet.”

“Shall we push it all away?”

Carver laughed when Havan said something uncharacteristically ignorant. She seemed to be under a lot of stress these days.

However, because I knew Ren’s personality well, I couldn’t make a hasty move.

‘Because Riley might still hate me, and I’m not sure if she’ll follow me.’

Carver, who had been quietly thinking, stood up with his eyes flashing.

“Yes, that is the only way.”

The half-half was anxious at the sight of his sparkling eyes, but tried to reassure herself that it would be okay.

rattle-

Carver entered the store with a deep breath. When I saw Riley looking at me with rabbit eyes, he said as if to reassure me.

“The person who received the gift last time liked it so much that he came to recommend something else as well. “If you don’t mind, can I ask you one more thing?”

Riley breathed a sigh of relief and nodded willingly.

‘Thank goodness, I thought I couldn’t give up and ask for employment again.’

When Ren glanced at Carver, Riley pulled Ren’s sleeve out of sight and glanced at him.

‘Why are you like this, really?’

Ren had no choice but to take a step back and watch Riley’s anger. I was concerned about Carver, who still couldn’t take her eyes off Riley, but she couldn’t tell him to leave outright.

‘… … I knew you wouldn’t give up. Was it impossible to stop it in the first place?’

What we have maintained so far with Reilly has been an incomplete contract.

If conflicting mana continues to collide, the contract will be broken due to the unstable mana.

If that happens, Riley will eventually have no choice but to properly sign the contract.

I wanted to prevent that much.

Thinking about her suffering again made me feel sad.

‘Do I have to see that again? I’ve forgotten everything and am smiling and having a good time now.’

If it weren’t for the crown prince, I would have killed him right away. No, because I had a contract with her imperial family, all I could do was stay by her side and protect her.

Ren gritted his teeth.

He didn’t do anything wrong, but I didn’t like it.

Of course, he sent a letter to the imperial family to force Theo to sign the divorce petition, but he didn’t want to do it.

“Uhm… … . Or how about coming with Him? “If I see you in person, I can recommend something that suits you better.”

“… … Is that okay?”

Ren looked at Carver and shook his head. But he looked like he couldn’t put it off any longer.

Neither Leta nor Riley could let each other live thinking they were dead.

“It’s nice to be able to recommend better products. But it’s a gift… … .”

“That doesn’t matter. I wanted to come in person anyway… … . “I’ll stop by with you tomorrow.”

Riley nodded at Carver’s words.

From a sales standpoint, it was convenient to look at the person wearing it and recommend something that suited them. It was much better to actually see it and experience it in person rather than recalling an image.

“Then I’ll assume you’ll be coming with us tomorrow.”

Carver held his handkerchief tightly, bowed his head slightly, and left the store. For some reason, Riley kept getting worried about Carver.

“Hmm, he is a strange person after all. Right, Ren?”

“I don’t like it.”

“what? Although I didn’t get much work done… … . You’re the one who bought expensive things. I don’t like it, but why are you so angry? “Ren, it’s strange.”

Riley crossed his arms and narrowed his eyes.

I didn’t like Ren’s attitude at all. When dealing with her customers, she had such a sullen expression and growled as if she was going to eat them, as if she wasn’t going to sell them anything.

“Raylee, I’m saying this for you.”

“huh? “What else are you going to say?”

Riley looked at Ren with anxious eyes. He was an incomprehensible person who often spoke incomprehensibly. Sensing how she felt, Ren sighed and shook her head.

“Just, all men should be careful. Everyone is a wolf except me. “Is this what you’re trying to say?”

“no.”

Ren raised his eyebrows at Riley’s words. She looked outside and saw Carver, unable to go, stopping and looking at Riley.

Ren wrapped his hands around the waist of Riley, who was standing in front of me, and pulled her towards me, then lowered his head and whispered in her ear.

“Everyone but me cancels the term ‘wolf.’ “I’ll be careful from now on, too.”

Ren’s loosely tied hair fell down and tickled Riley’s face. Riley’s eyes opened wide at Ren’s sudden action.
