Yet somehow, this little monster had appeared beside him without making a single sound.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In any normal situation, those questions would have shocked him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How did she get inside? How did she hide from his senses? How long had she been standing there?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But right now, none of that mattered. His mind had already gone completely blank from panic.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I heard everything, Grandpa,\" the little girl said proudly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She rocked back and forth on her tiny heels while covering her mouth with one hand, trying very hard to look mature and secretive.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You were talking with that other lady who looks like Grandma. Hehe~\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her pink cheeks became even pinker from excitement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You are such a bad person, Grandpa. Thank goodness Papa isn’t like you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She giggled again, completely enjoying herself. Then she delivered the final blow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I’m going to tell Grandma everything.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nathaniel felt his soul leave his body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No!!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He shot up from his chair so fast that the chair nearly flipped over behind him. Papers exploded into the air and scattered across the room like frightened birds.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before the girl could react, Nathaniel lunged forward and instantly covered her mouth with one hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mmph?!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With the other hand, he slammed the cabin door shut.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bang!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The entire room shook slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nathaniel breathed heavily as sweat rolled down his forehead. His heart pounded so hard that it almost hurt.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This secret could never be revealed. Absolutely never.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just a few days ago, Elizabeth had nearly beaten him to death over a single lipstick mark.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And the worst part was that he truly had no idea where it came from at first.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Later, he learned it was Miasma’s doing. That insane woman had kissed him before escaping just to make him suffer afterward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nathaniel had explained everything honestly, but Elizabeth naturally refused to believe him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Instead, she became convinced he had secretly enjoyed it and helped Miasma escape on purpose.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The result? Three broken tables. One shattered wall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And Nathaniel spending the entire night lying face-down on the floor while questioning every life choice he had ever made.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But honestly... the beating was not what scared him most.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What truly terrified him was what would happen between the sisters.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Elizabeth still did not know that Kathlyin had feelings for him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For fourteen years, Nathaniel had desperately kept that secret buried. He never spoke about it. Never hinted at it. Never allowed the topic to come anywhere near Elizabeth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not because he was cheating. He truly did not have those kinds of feelings for Kathlyin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What he feared was the crack this truth could create between the twins.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Elizabeth loved her sister deeply despite how chaotic they both were. And Kathlyin, no matter how crazy she acted, cared about Elizabeth just as much.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nathaniel knew very well what would happen if this truth came out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Things would never stay the same again. There would be anger. Fights. Accusations.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The easy closeness the sisters shared would slowly become awkward and painful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even if they tried to act normal afterward, a wall would still remain in their hearts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And Nathaniel could never allow himself to become the reason for that division.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mmfff! Mmmph!!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The little girl struggled in his arms as Nathaniel hurriedly dragged her toward the corner of the room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only after reaching it did he finally remove his hand from her mouth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The girl immediately took a huge breath while fixing her messy ponytails.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Umm... gra... grandpa...\" she said weakly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nathaniel crouched in front of her with the face of a man standing before complete disaster.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Rosel,\" he said in a heavy voice, \"what I’m about to tell you must remain a secret forever. Do you understand?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nathaniel’s expression was so serious that Rosel instinctively became serious too.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The playful look on her face disappeared immediately. From his tone alone, she could tell this was something extremely important.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And as every child knew, there was no greater feeling in the world than being trusted with a secret.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nathaniel knew that too. Which was exactly why he was using it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He took a deep breath and lowered his voice even more.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You see... the lady you saw...\" He suddenly stopped.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His hesitation was obvious, as if he were struggling with whether he should reveal some ancient forbidden truth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Um... should I really tell you?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rosel’s curiosity instantly exploded. \"What is it, Grandpa?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She leaned closer without realizing it. Even her earlier amusement disappeared completely, replaced by pure focus.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nathaniel looked away dramatically. \"But if I tell you... you might tell everyone...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He rubbed his forehead with a troubled look. \"Ahh... what should I do...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He started muttering to himself like a man carrying the burden of the entire world.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If I don’t explain it, she’ll misunderstand... but Eli also told me to keep it secret... ahh, this is bad... very bad...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rosel slowly grabbed his hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nathaniel paused and looked down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The little girl stared directly into his eyes with unbelievable seriousness for someone her age.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Papa says,\" she began carefully, \"you only share your secrets with the people closest to you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nathaniel blinked slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Grandpa... I know I was impul... impool...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Impulsive?\" Nathaniel helped automatically.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes! That!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She nodded proudly before continuing. \"But now I understand. You have secrets you can’t tell anyone...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her little face became unusually firm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nathaniel could swear he even saw a strange sparkle appear in her eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I promise I won’t tell anybody!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She suddenly stretched out her tiny finger toward him. \"Pinky promise!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her eyes burned with seriousness and determination.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nathaniel stared at the tiny finger in silence for two seconds.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then inwardly....\"Bingo\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His heart nearly celebrated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Still, outwardly, he maintained the face of a tired man burdened by destiny itself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Slowly, he hooked his own finger around hers. Together, the two spoke solemnly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"May we never break this promise.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"May we never reveal the secrets shared between us.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once the promise was finished, Rosel nodded firmly. \"Now we are bound by the promise,\" she said seriously. \"You can tell me now.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mmm.\" Nathaniel nodded with equal seriousness while staring at the tiny pink-haired balloon standing before him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What I’m about to reveal,\" he whispered, \"must never leave this room.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Understood!\" Rosel instantly gave him a salute.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nathaniel inhaled slowly. Then, with the face of a man revealing the truth of the universe itself, he finally spoke.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The truth is...\" He paused dramatically for more effect. \"Your grandma...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rosel unconsciously held her breath.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...is a superhero.\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1113,"2026-06-10T05:56:22.118Z",1,"novelbin.me","32c41300750c4e7e09c20996e358ee1d4bb2f9f1a3e1f22fe8c936b43ac41e30","villainess-x-villain-they-are-obsessed-with-each-chapter-186","villainess-x-villain-they-are-obsessed-with-each-chapter-184",220,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fvillainess-x-villain-they-are-obsessed-with-each-cover.jpg"]
