I’m a Fake Saintess But the Gods Are Obsessed With Me

 

After Reihausd, or rather Professor Ray Warner, left, I thought about the meaning of ‘special.’

 

Yes, since he studied me, it means that I’m special as a patient.

 

I don’t want to think about anything anymore. It’s really like that.

 

It was difficult to move as before, perhaps because I had lost a lot of muscle after lying down for a long time, but I regained my previous physical strength through Braille rehabilitation treatment.

 

Since I was on leave for a year, I have to go back to school next spring…

 

There is a lot to prepare.

 

[I made madeleines today. The members asked for it, but I didn’t give it to them because I had to give it to you—I did good, right?]

 

[You’re sleeping. I’ll leave the album behind.]

 

In the meantime, Diego coming in and out of the hospital every day was really annoying, but it was also true that the time I spent with Diego was a little less boring while my family didn’t have any contact with me.

 

“Wow… It looks like he’s very popular.”

 

I ate madeleines while looking at the comments about Diego.

 

A 7-member male idol group with the Demon Realm concept.

 

Diego was by far the most popular among them all.

 

“He

is

handsome.”

 

Considering that this guy was my close male friend, I guess I had a surprisingly lively personality.

 

While watching Diego’s video, I played an entertainment program.

 

—Are there friends between men and women, or not?

 

All the other members chose ‘yes’, yet Diego chose ‘no’.

 

—Oh, Diego is surprising.

 

When the MC asked, he answered.

 

—Because I’m more conservative than I appear. Meeting or hanging out closely with a woman without any emotions… That’s not possible.

 

Diego’s face appeared on the screen.

 

The trademark purple eyes are looking at the camera.

 

—To meet someone, you have to have feelings.

 

For a moment, my heart started pounding and I quickly pressed the back button.

 

My cheeks feel hot.

 

I paused for a moment and shook my head.

 

“Let’s go for a walk.”

 

Fortunately, my condition was recovering easily, so my discharge date was set for the week after.

 

Of course, I still have to see Professor Ray Warner from time to time and have medical treatment, but where can I escape the frustrating hospital life?

 

I deliberately thought of something else and left the hospital room.

 

And when I set foot on a trail with few people around.

 

Slap—

 

I unconsciously flinched at the sound coming from ahead.

 

“How… can you ask for a break up?”

 

I heard a woman’s voice crying.

 

I froze in surprise and saw a man and woman in front of me.

 

The woman in the one-piece dress looked like an incredibly beautiful woman at first glance, and the tall man in a well-fitting black suit turned his gaze towards me as if he had spotted me.

 

The moment my eyes met his, I had no choice but to cover my mouth.

 

‘Cass…?!!’

 

Black hair and dark blue eyes,

 

Slightly red cheeks, a cool energy radiating out.

 

The moment I encountered him, the world seemed to stop.

 

The woman standing in front of him spoke with resentful eyes.

 

“To think that you said you’re engaged. Then am I… just your play toy?”

 

My heart was pounding like it was going to burst.

 

Cass turned his eyes to the woman again and spoke tiredly.

 

“I’ve never played with you. You just unilaterally stuck to me.”

 

His voice and speaking style flew out.

 

“You have the worst character to touch someone else’s body just because you were rejected.”

 

The woman trembled and argued.

 

“That can’t be possible. You were obviously interested in me. No, no. That can’t be possible.”

 

The woman continued speaking with a distorted expression, as if she could not accept reality.

 

“Who is your fiancée? It’s a lie, isn’t it? The fact that you’re engaged is just to get rid of me.”

 

That was the moment Cass took off his foot.

 

He walked towards me, stepping on the floor with shoes that looked extremely expensive.

 

The woman was shocked, as if she had only just found out that I was there.

 

Soon, Cass came in front of me, raising his hands.

 

“…”

 

His hands touched my stiff face.

 

He was gently rubbing my cheek and looking at me with deep eyes.

 

As the red lips moved, he let out a soft voice.

 

“You came out just in time. I was planning to come see you.”

 

My heart was pounding and I couldn’t say anything.

 

“Haesung Group’s youngest granddaughter, my fiancée.”

 

The wind blew from Cass’s direction as a cool scent permeated my nose.

 

“…!”

 

The woman was crying and ran away covering her mouth, but I couldn’t look back at her.

 

After a while, he lowered his hand from my cheek.

 

“…”

 

I looked at him blankly.

 

Haesung Group. It is a company where Grandfather is the chairman.

 

Of course, I’m the illegitimate son of the fourth son, so it wouldn’t be wrong to say that I have absolutely nothing to do with the group.

 

“…I’m sorry.”

 

After a while, he pursed his lips.

 

“I wanted to say my first greeting in a better way, yet this is what happened.”

 

Soon he took his hands away from my cheeks. I opened my mouth for the first time since meeting him.

 

“Who… are you?”

 

Cass’s expression hardened for a moment at my words.

 

Then his expression relaxed again and he opened his mouth.

 

“You just woke up, so I haven’t heard anything yet. I’m…”

 

And then I heard a man’s voice behind me.

 

“Chairman! The doctor… ah! I apologize.”

 

The man who appeared to be a secretary was trying to call Cass, yet he seemed to notice me belatedly and stop his words.

 

Cass gestured with his hand as if to ask him to go and then spoke again.

 

“I’m Kang Minjae, Chairman of the Lloyd Foundation.”

 

“Not Lloyd’s Merchant?!”

 

Cass looked at me for a while as I asked him, then he grinned brightly.

 

“You’re an honest and confident person.”

 

“…Pardon?”

 

“As you said, the Lloyd Foundation was established for CSR purposes. It’s a type of corporate social contribution.”

 

Cass continued speaking with a gentle expression.

 

“As the eldest son of the Lloyd Group, I know there has been a lot of backlash after I took charge of the hospital foundation. It was definitely like that just a year ago. For-profit hospital conversion, leader in medical privatization to suit politicians’ tastes.”

 

“…”

 

“But it’s something no one is talking about now. Rather, we have strengthened our support for the socially underprivileged and are expanding opportunities for everyone to receive quality medical care by inviting famous professors from abroad. By investing the money earned at Lloyd Group, we’re truly contributing to society.”

 

I looked at him with a confused expression.

 

So, Cass… no, I mean, Kang Minjae is the eldest son of the Lloyd Group and the chairman of the board of this hospital, right?

 

Is he still a conglomerate in modern times?!

 

After a while he blushed a little and looked away.

 

“Merchant, you say, so it feels a little bit like I’ve been hit on the head by something.”

 

“Ah… I didn’t mean that. It’s really Lloyd’s Merchant….”

 

“No. If our hospital continues to have that image even after I take charge, it will definitely be something to reflect on.”

 

My mind was on the bright side. Yet there was definitely something I needed to ask.

 

“Um… what does the term ‘fiancée’ mean…?”

 

“Actually, I’m a little impressed.”

 

However, he cut me off.

 

He spoke to me, who flinched.

 

“None of the women I was interested in spoke this way. What I’m interested in is a profitable business and my family’s wealth.”

 

“Wa… Wait. That’s not what I meant.”

 

“No. It’s fine.”

 

What on earth is fine!

 

He suddenly grabbed my hands with both hands and said as I looked at him in confusion.

 

“The reason I rejected the numerous marriage talks that had been going on until now and accepted marriage talks with you was because I was impressed by your selfless act.”

 

“Yes… Yes?”

 

“I was curious about what kind of woman you were, as you were injured and in a coma on behalf of a friend. The youngest granddaughter of Haesung Group.”

 

My embarrassed face was reflected on the surface of his dark eyes.

 

There was deep confidence in his cold eyes.

 

“I think my guess was correct.”

 

 “…”

 

“Marriage is about moving forward in the same direction in life. I came thinking I need to be careful.”

 

I suddenly came to my senses at the word ‘marriage’ and took my hands away from him.

 

So, it seems like marriage talks are going on between my family and Lloyd’s Merchant… no, Lloyd Group’s management.

 

Cass is the person I’m marrying.

 

I think ‘merchant’ is stuck in my words that I’m hooked on it…

 

“I think there’s a misunderstanding.”

 

I calmed my mind and spoke calmly.

 

“Ah.”

 

And then he closed his lips for a moment.

 

”…I apologize once again for my rudeness regarding my first impression. She’s a woman of the family to whom my engagement was proposed before you, yet she became excessively attached to me, and it was necessary to take her away once and for all.”

 

“By any chance, the woman from earlier, her name isn’t Rie, right? Or Raven? A countess or something?”

 

“I don’t know what you’re talking about.”

 

I shook my head as I suddenly thought of that woman.

 

“No… Anyway.”

 

And she told him clearly.

 

“I have never been told about an engagement from my family. Especially an engagement to a man I met for the first time.”

 

My heart throbbed as I said the part about ‘I met for the first time’.

 

It may have been an illusion, but Cass also moved his eyebrows.

 

After a moment of silence, he opened his mouth.

 

“You won’t regret it.”

 

The low voice seemed to pierce my heart.

 

A deep smile appeared on his lips.

 

“The more you get to know me.”
