The last words Sedna said before she left were a little confusing, but Villette understood them. By the time he realized what was going on, he had even walked to the Debo Hotel without realizing it.

When they saw him, the noise from the diners in the restaurant suddenly became quieter.

This kind of thing is very common. Villette is now able to treat other people's attitudes calmly. She walked to the front desk with a normal expression and asked the waiter in charge of taking orders for a piece of the cake that Sedna mentioned.

The waiter moved quickly and came out with a packaged cake box in a few minutes.

"Then, Master Villette, your cake..."

"Thank you."

Navilette thanked him politely and left.

As soon as he left, everyone in the store breathed a sigh of relief.

In particular, the waiter who had the most contact with Villette almost collapsed on the chair, but even so, it did not prevent her from having wild thoughts about the handsome face of the Supreme Inquisitor.

"Mr. Villette is worthy of being the man that Fontaine most wants to marry in the tabloids. He is polite and dignified. He is so handsome!" She never tired of recommending him to her companions.

Her companion glanced at her calmly and said bluntly, "Don't think about it. She already has a partner. Didn't you see that in the newspaper a few days ago?"

If I remember correctly, she was hugging me and howling at that time.

The waiter didn't want to recall this shameful incident, so he quickly added, "Didn't Mo Mang Palace declare that it was fake? Moreover, Zhu Ying Court has been investigating this matter recently."

Her companion looked at her jokingly: "I have a little news here. The two transfers of the security agency some time ago were all because of that 'secret girlfriend'. And do you want to guess who Master Villette bought the cake for?"

"Who? Lord Water God?"

The Debo Hotel and Momang Palace have a long-term cooperation and provide desserts to the Water God regularly every day. This is the only thing the waiter can think of.

"There are other dedicated staff responsible for helping Lord Water God get the cake, and they just came this morning. Lord Villette's cake is probably prepared for that 'secret girlfriend.'" The companion spoke with details, as if she had heard Villette admit it with her own ears.

But what she said was pretty much right.

At this time, Navrette was carrying a cake and walking on the way to Chloe's house.

According to Sedna, Chloe should be very happy to see this cake, right?

He still remembered that when they were in the coffee shop, Chloe would always squint her eyes when she ate a dessert that suited her taste, and the corners of her smiling lips would rise a little more, like a sated cat.

The water goddess Funina loved these small animals and often sneaked out alone to feed them.

However, perhaps because of his aura as the Water Dragon King, Villette often did not receive their favor. He could only watch them from a distance to avoid scaring these little guys away.

He had seen well-fed cats gathering around Furninna's feet, purring softly and rubbing their soft fur against her.

Could Chloe also have this side?

Before Villette could get an answer to his thoughts, his attention was grabbed by a little guy who suddenly rushed out from not far away.

It's Chloe's pet sea otter.

But how did this little guy end up here? Where's Chloe?
Upon seeing him, the little sea otter immediately stopped moving forward, ran to his side, bit his trouser leg with his teeth, and tried to pull it in the direction he was coming from.

At first, Violet didn't understand what it meant until he smelled a hint of blood from the little guy. At that moment, he realized that something might have happened to Chloe.

Without giving it any more thought, he immediately rushed over with the little sea otter as fast as he could, but he only saw the girl lying on the doorstep, covered in blood.

*
The rain outside the window was falling heavily, and the sound of it dripping on the window frame was so loud that it woke Chloe from her long sleep.

But the bed beneath me was soft and warm, perhaps too comfortable.

Chloe was so happy that she didn't want to open her eyes. She just turned over in bed and mumbled something vaguely.

Of course, this noise did not escape Villette's eyes, but the guy on the bed didn't make any other sounds. He was not sure whether she was awake or not, and was still hesitating whether to make a sound.

Compared to him, the little sea otter has absolutely no worries.

As soon as it heard Chloe's voice, it immediately ran from the foot of the bed to the head of the bed and went straight into her arms to make a fuss.

"Okay, okay! I'm awake!" Chloe was so itchy from the dense fur on its body that she had to open her eyes and hold the little sea otter in her arms to keep it quiet.

However, due to her position, she could not see Navelette behind her.

"Ms. Chloe..."

Villette's voice was drowned out by Chloe's giggles, and the latter couldn't hear it at all, which forced him to raise his voice, but it seemed like he raised it too much?

When Chloe realized that the Supreme Inquisitor was behind her, she was so scared that she immediately fell silent and turned around carefully.

The pink-haired girl looked extremely guilty, not daring to look up at him, and even spoke in a very low voice: "Then Lord Villette, why are you here..."

As if sensing its master's mood, the little sea otter immediately stood between the two men and glared at him fiercely.

That Villette sighed helplessly: "Ms. Chloe, do you remember what happened before you fell into a coma?"

Eh? Coma? Are you unconscious?
Chloe was confused. Her brain was working rapidly under the reminder of Villette, and she finally recalled what she saw before she closed her eyes.

"Snakes! There are snakes!"

Chloe remembered that when she opened the box, a colorfully patterned snake jumped out and bit her hand.

God knows, she was not afraid of anything in her life except these scary long creatures, so when she answered Villette's question, her voice was a little trembling.

But what happened afterwards? How come she didn't remember anything about what happened afterwards?

"Then Lord Villette, have I been driven stupid by the snake venom? Or have I actually been poisoned to death, and the you whom I see now is actually fake, a figment of my imagination?" The more Chloe thought about it, the more frightened she became, and her speech became incoherent.

She remembered the classic line from the light novel and couldn't help hugging her weak, pitiful and helpless self: "It turns out that all this was just a dream before death..."

Quite a beautiful state of mind.

Villette was never good at dealing with people, and now faced with a mad man, he was helpless and could only comfort him in silence.

The man took Chloe's hand.

Chloe:?!
