Chapter 554: The one who haunts the Mylne Household [3]

"Wow, this food is great!"

A knife cut through the egg.

"…It's been a while since I've eaten something so good. It's also seasoned nicely. Who made this?"

The yolk spread across the plate.

"Was it you?"

Kiera suddenly pointed her knife in the direction of the Viscount who looked at her with a surprised expression. He appeared to be at a loss for what to say, but at the same time a little touched. 

Was he that starved for Kiera's attention? 

Whatever the case was, it was clear that he really doted on Kiera. The more I looked at him, the more the situation felt weird to me. 

It felt like there was some sort of veil covering my vision, preventing me from seeing what was truly going on. 

"Did you change the chef like I told you yesterday? In any case, it's delicious."

Kiera took a bite of the egg and started chewing, her face lighting up as if she were savoring the most delicious egg in the world.

Everyone was looking at her strangely.

Indeed, as opposed to the sight that greeted them yesterday, Kiera looked like an entirely different person.

"Is she bipolar?"

"….Probably."

Even Aoife and the others looked surprised by her sudden shift. They did notice that something was wrong, but they couldn't quite tell what it was.

This was especially obvious for Evelyn, who tended to be quite observant. For a moment, I almost thought she mumbled something along the lines of, 'Oh no, did she get possessed? Not another one...' 

If only she knew... 

The only ones that seemed to be doing okay were Amell, Caius, and Kaelion. The three of them were just eating quietly, with Kaelion passing the salt to Caius, who accidentally dipped the entire thing on his plate before eating it with no concern. 

What the fuck? 

"Is everything alright?"

"Hm?"

Feeling a small nudge, I turned to look at Leon, who sat next to me. He had a strange look on his face as he looked at me.

"You seem a little weird."

"….Do I?"

"Yes, your face looks a little pale. Is something wrong?"

"I… yes, actually."
