In Place of Losing My Memory, I Remembered That I Was the Fiancée of the Capture Target - Chapter 2.3
“Xia!”
After the entrance ceremony, I listened to my homeroom teacher in the classroom, and that was the end of the day. As everyone was getting ready to go home, the classroom door opened and I heard a voice calling me.
“…Rick”
“Xia, are you feeling okay?”
Patrick spotted me and headed straight for me.
…All the eyes of the classroom are focused on the appearance of the student council president,
“I’m okay”
“If you were looking at it from above, you would have looked pale halfway through.”
Was he watching me? Maybe the whole time?
“You’re just recovering from an illness, so don’t push yourself too hard.”
“It’s really okay…”
“Don’t worry, my sister has me with her.”
Theodore said as he brushed away Patrick’s hand when he tried to put it on my back.
“I’m sure you’re busy as the student council president. You don’t have to worry about my sister.”
“Isn’t my fiancée’s condition more important than the student council job?”
“Both of you, stop glaring at each other in a place like this!
“Also, Patrick, don’t say embarrassing things out loud!”
“The student council president’s fiancée…”
“I’m sure it’s from Count Bertini’s family…”
“She got sick and lost her memory…”
I can hear the noises and voices around me.
———Is it known that I have amnesia?
But maybe that would be more convenient.
More than that…
“Stop being like that you two. Rick, thank you for worrying about me, but I’m fine now.”
“Really?”
“Yes”
When I answered that with a smile, Patrick also smiled back, feeling relieved.
The classroom is once again filled with a buzz.
“Are you going home for today?”
Patrick said without seeming to care about the state of the class.
“Yes”
“I’ll take you to the carriage stop.”
“No, it’s okay…”
‘Theodore is with me too’, but before I could say that Patrick’s hand went to my back.
“I’d be in trouble if there was someone who tried to mess with you. I need to show them the relationship between us and keep them in check.”
He whispers in my ear, and my face heats up.
“Sister…”
“As your fiancée, it’s only natural that I escort you.”
Patrick said this in a strong tone, as if to control Theodore who was glaring at him, and he urged me to leave the classroom.
“Alexia?”
When I headed to the carriage stop, His Highness and Liam were there.
His Highness noticed me and was about to smile, but when his eyes landed on the person next to me, his face quickly turned serious.
“…Student Council President”
“Is your highness going home too?”
“ah…”
His Highness’s gaze alternates between me and Patrick.
“———I thought you guys weren’t on good terms.”
His Highness said, fixing his gaze on Patrick’s hand that was wrapped around my shoulder.
“Yes, it used to be like that. Now we’re good.”
Patrick looked at me and smiled.
…A close-up smile like that has a destructive power…
Patrick strokes my head, which makes my face flush even more.
“…I see. It’s a good thing that fiancés are on good terms with each other.”
After saying that in a voice that contained some coldness, His Highness turned his back to us and got into the carriage.
“Xia’s carriage is further away.”
It seems the carriage stop are set up determined by each rank.
As I looked in the stop direction, I saw a red-haired girl in front of me.
It’s the heroine…she’s going home too.
While watching the heroine getting into the carriage with a sideways glance, we also headed towards my house’s carriage.
