The Fate Of The World Is In My Hands, But All I Want To Do Is Eat! - Chapter 182

Chapter 182: You look very beautiful Chapter 182: You look very beautiful Leo decided he might’ve been a bit immature, having such thoughts, so he cast them aside, smiled, and said, “Alright, I’ll stop.

Nothing’s going to change if I think of them anyway.

So, let’s forget I had useless thoughts for a minute.” Alice nodded.

“Alright, let’s…” Leo grabbed her hand, stopping her in her tracks.

“Ah, we’re not done yet.” He said, looking at her with a scary expression on his face that she couldn’t help but wonder what sort of evil he was cooking up in that kind of his.

Alice and Leo soon walked down the stairs and Devon, who had been sitting patiently in the living room, spotted them.

Ah, his eyes couldn’t have seen an angel, could it?

Alice looked so…normal.

It wasn’t an insult, honestly.

She just didn’t look like herself, and the light touch of makeup on her face, alongside her hairstyle and the dress she was wearing, gave her the halo of an angel.

“You said this was okay, right?” Alice asked, while they walked down and Leo nodded.

“Most definitely.

A light touch of makeup wouldn’t kill anyone.” He said, smiling at her but she couldn’t agree with that.

This so-called light touch of makeup was making her feel conscious of her face.

She hated makeup to begin with.

Why did she go ahead with Leo’s suggestion to have her face powdered and her lips tainted pink?

“I feel like a clown.” She exclaimed with extreme dissatisfaction but Leo felt otherwise.

“Give it a rest.

You look beautiful.” “I always do.” She said, flipping the strands of her hair aside in pride and Leo gave her a disgusted look.

Look who decided to take on the role of narcissist.

They got to the door of the stairs and met Devon staring in awe.

*Ah, now that is the perfect reaction when seeing the masterpiece I crafted.* He thought and she frowned.

‘Wipe off that smug.

The monster meat did all the work.’ she said and he clicked his tongue in a ‘tch’ as he threw his gaze away.

‘Ah, come to think of it, will you make me something with monster meat later?

It’s been a while.’ “Wipe your drool, you’re ruining my masterpiece.” Leo said but her eyes were already bleeding with her need for monster meat.

It had been so long, yet she could still savor the great and juicy taste of it.

She would do anything to get her hands on that sort of delicacy again.

“Alice,” Devon called and Alice snapped out of it.

She turned to him and smiled.

“I’m ready.

Shall we head out now?” Devon nodded, trying his best to hide his excitement but he didn’t keep it to himself for too long.

Just as he did in the past, when he became the first to compliment her and make her blush, he called, “Alice,” “Hm?” “You look very beautiful.” Alice paused, her heart skipping a beat for some reason and she looked away.

No, she didn’t just look away, she turned her entire body away from him, backing him to hide her expression.

Leo, now standing in front of her, looked past her towards Devon who had a slight flush underneath his right eye.

‘Ah, would you look at that?’ ‘Leo, he did it again.’ Alice said.

*What?

Calling you beautiful?

I’m very sure I did that just a few seconds ago.* He said but she shook her head.

‘Your words don’t count.’ she held her cheeks.

‘He sounded so sincere and…’ “Hah,” Leo sighed and dropped his hand on her head, turning her around right away.

*When I say it, you say it’s a given, but when someone else, i.e., Devon, says it to you, you become a crazy fan girl.

I can’t comprehend what goes on in that head of yours.* ‘Well, I don’t know what’s going on in my head either.

My heart just grows warm when he compliments me.’ she thought, fiddling with her hair.

She slowly raised her gaze to look at him and then shut her eyes.

*Well, let’s just blame your feelings from your previous life and get on with it.* He gave her a solution and she accepted it without batting an eye.

‘You’re right.

This is happening because of my feelings from my previous life.

Thanks for reminding me, Leo.’ She said to him but he could only shake his head.

‘Now, watch me react like a normal person.’ *Ah, I think you missed your chance when you turned around to blush at my face.* He said but she elbowed him to keep his thoughts out of her head and smiled at Devon, who was shocked by what she did.

“Thank you for the compliment, Devon.” She said.

“As always, you look very stunning.” Devon nodded.

He looked at Leo, wondering if he was okay after taking Alice’s attack, but he seemed fine, even giving him a thumbs up behind Alice to prove he felt nothing from the attack.

“Ah, alright.

I’m glad you think so highly of me.” He said, shyly brushing the back of his neck and revealing his flushed ears.

‘Ooh, is that a good sign?’ *Stop searching for signs that you will never adhere to and let’s start going.* Leo said to her and she tsked.

“Hm, where’s Mark?” Alice asked as they made their way to the door.

She noticed he wasn’t there to see her off.

No, he wasn’t even in the house.

“He had to go out.” Devon said.

“He didn’t tell me what he was going out to do but he asked me to make sure nothing happened to you on the way to the Chairman’s house.

But I don’t think anything’s going to happen.” “Geez, Mark is such a worrywart.” Alice said and laughed softly.

“But I guess I could get him something on my way back.” She added and that reminded her of something.

“Oh, let’s stop at a nice gift store on our way.” “What for?” Leo and Devon ended up asking at the same time.

“Well, I did hear that when you’re going to visit your elders, it’s a nice gesture if you go with gifts.

I want to try that.” She said and walked ahead of them.

“I don’t have anyone to send gifts to, so I want to try it out with Gramps.” Leo watched her, surprised.

Ah, he never thought she would entertain such thoughts.

She seemed to have grown quite a lot.

CREATORS’ THOUGHTS Author_fredah Yeah, she has But don’t you think it’s funny?

When Leo says it, it’s a given, bit when someone else says it, Its a very heartwarming compliment, lmao.

She needs to give Leo the credit he deserves
