The Antagonist: The World Ends Theory
Chapters 26. The Rovers

After yesterday, Clara did her usual activities. What was different was only his relationship with Hellen that was getting worse. While Clara and Duke Wayne are away at the palace, Hendrick and the Duchess must calm Hellen overnight.

"What happened to her?" Ask Clara.

Hendrick only replied briefly, "He just cried then fell asleep. Today he hasn't come out yet, it seems mentally quite unshakable."

"Should I apologize to him?"

Hendrick's brows fused together to hear him, "You want to be slapped again by him? In addition, before doing something think mature - mature first. You're making me nervous because of the hysterical Hellen. After that you without any guilt even went with the Duke to the palace."

"Your brain is not working well anymore." Connect Hendrick while insinuating Clara.

"Well, for now at least I'll shut up and wait. And then after that..."

"You better wait for him to come to you, don't be as careless as yesterday, I don't want to repeat it again."

Clara fell silent, her eyes focused on the pen she was holding. There were many documents he had completed but the pile - the pile of documents was like endless.

I should have apologized in the usual way.

"I'll think about it later." Clara.

Hendrick just clucked softly, "You know what? Only time can avenge all your deeds whether good or bad. I advise you to keep quiet and wait for the right moment."

"Mr Hendrick, when did Duke Wayne relinquish his title?" Ask Clara.

Hendrick snorted softly, "I don't know. Just ask him, I don't care."

Because hearing Hendrick say that, Clara looked at Hendrick curious as well as astonished.

Still in a time of rebellion...

Hendrick scratched the paper leaflet somewhat irritatedly. Perhaps it was because the arriving Clara brought the name of the person she hated the most for now.

This is his job as Duke! Why should I destroy me?! The old man must be having fun - poya is out there!

"Tch, I'm still watching the old man!" Furious Hendrick.

"Now is the most annoying day..." Lirih Clara's.

Today, as promised by Hellen and Rovers. The crown prince is coming to visit his fiancee in an unknown order. While it's time until Rovers gets back home, maybe Clara will hide in Hendrick's office.

No, wait a minute!

"Isn't Mr Hendrick's brother still recovering from yesterday's incident? Would it be okay if his fiancee came here?"

"Just calm down, he's good at covering up the wounds in his heart."

"Sounds like a hypocrite to me."

"Are you not the same? Don't expect anything from Hellen after he's been friends with you for three years."

Clara was silent, she was indeed annoyed. But Hendrick's statement cannot be disputed. Because after all Clara herself is very good at covering up her true feelings even her own identity.

When she took another piece of paper, Clara remembered something.

"What if I stay here until the man returns to his habitat?"

"Lucky you're booing Rovers not in front of Hellen himself. If it is, your plan to befriend Hellen in the future could be ruined like porridge."

"I just still feel a grudge against him because of that day. Can't I repay him with a little thing like this?" Ketus Clara's.

"Huh.had it, he might have come before lunch. So there's a reason for you not to go out to see him."

"Good."

"If he's not a future king, I'm too lazy to take my time for him."

"Why indeed?"

"That's my business, a little boy like you doesn't have to interfere."

"uh? I'm just asking. Hmphh!"

Returning to the documents, Hendrick thought again about the incident last night after his father and Clara went to the palace. Hendrick could have asked, but he also knew that Clara needed space for her privacy.

CRICK

Suddenly the door opened and featured a sweet, milk-brown girl with irises similar to gold. He smiled cheerfully at the figure he called brother.

But when he saw that there were other residents in the room, the girl immediately gave a gloomy expression. The girl in black dress with skin as pale as the dead man made her not tasteful to feel happy.

"Why is the undead here, brother?" Hellen asked in a trenchant tone. On the other hand, Clara only watched the two brothers with a flat gaze.

"Oh, did you forget that he was here every day?" Feeling his head hurt, Hendrick massaged his temple.

"Oh." Hellen replied without interest.

"So, what's looking for me?"

"It's about the arrival of the Crown Prince, will Big Brother be like the Father who didn't welcome him? Brother knows? Mother dedicates her time to me, there's no way Big Brother won't do it either."

"...You didn't see the documents your father gave me?" With no tone Hendrick immediately answered.

"My father is also my brother's father." Circlap Hellen.

Then Hellen saw there were about seven stacks where one of the stacks was the finished one. Then he looked at the other table where the documents were still perched sweetly in front of Clara with no less number.

"Can't that be resolved later?" Hellen's face began to frown unhappily.

"You want to finish this for me later?"

"Well, right?" Hellen was upset.

"Night should be finished anyway, it's the shortest deadline. You want to finish it for me?" Hendrick repeated his question.

This time Hellen's face looked doubtful, he again saw Clara who now started diving again to complete all the tasks until later tonight.

"Isn't he the only one here? He's a night creature, isn't he? There's no way Big Brother doesn't know." Appoint Hellen, he still has not accepted losing the debate from his brother.

"If he could work on it I would have thrown all these documents at him, too. The thing is, he still has to ask me if there's any paperwork he can't handle." Sendrick in a low tone.

Clara pura - pura did not hear it.

I know I'm stupid! I'm not an economy kid anyway! I am just an expert in the arts!

"Huh..."

"Maybe Big Brother will consider it again when this document is reduced by half." Hendrick's lie, where he wants to overtime again because of his duties again - again added by Duke Wayne.

If this task alone has not been completed then added with another. It would be dangerous for the balance of this family, there is a possibility Hendrick ran away and relinquished his title as a potential Duke.

"Your father enslaved me, tell him that I'm fed up with all this paper. So, do it yourself." Hendrick said again before Hellen left his brother's study.

"Silver is still rebelling apparently."

CRIETTE

The door closed again, leaving silence between Hendrick and Clara. Clara soon decides to start a conversation.

"Is the Crown Prince coming now?"

"I think he'll be here soon."

PLAQUES

Huh uh? Incidentally, just got talked about.

Clara stared out while holding her veil, at the main gate of the Wayne noble family. There's someone riding a brown-haired horse. The man was wearing the official clothes of a royal member.

Eyes as blue as the ocean and a golden mane, it would be strange if someone did not like it. But Clara is the exception, that person who has already made a personal in Clara out and occupies her consciousness.

"He's coming!"

TB

Oh yes, this notice is a little late but will still be told, actually when Clara was in Hendrick's study. The room was lit only by the minimal light from the candles. The curtains and doors are tightly closed to prevent sunlight from entering. Clara is strictly prohibited from getting sunburned because her skin will burn (this is in the true sense, not just Clara's skin blackened but actually dapet burns -_-).
