Dark Evolution Begins with Marrying an SSS-CLASS Blind Monster Chapter 42: Different Heartbeats

Inside the dungeon, Rachel was standing in front of the exit, and her gaze was fixed on the blue portal in front of her.

A sigh left her lips, and the thoughts inside her mind were all over the place.

’He... Why does he remind of HIM?’

A familiar face appeared in her mind, and a bitter smile blood on her face.

’I shouldn’t have tried to do sothing like this. It was foolish.’

The mories from years ago resurfaced and her eyes watered with unshed tears.

So minutes ago, Nell had rejected her.

Her advance alongside...

Her confession...

It was for the first ti in 6 years that she felt her heart beating rapidly.

All because Nellas looked like the person she had loved and lost 6 years ago.

His face, his voice, and even his attitude were just like him, so her heart had been fooled into thinking that he had co back.

That is why she had tried to seduce him, and her hand had touched his chest.

However, when his stern voice entered her ears, the illusion she had created in her mind was shattered, and she realized the truth.

The man who had co to the dungeon was not her old lover, but soone else.

Nevertheless, when Nell was rejecting her, she thought of the guy she loved and tears almost fell from her eyes.

’Damn, I shouldn’t have done this. If Ron ever finds out about it, he will surely be disappointed in .’

She cursed herself for being stupid and doing sothing like that.

’If only it was HIM, things would be different.’

A weary sigh left her lips as she lifted her hand and placed it on her chest.

Her heartbeat was still fast, and a faint blush was visible on her cheeks.

She was a woman, and her needs were also valid.

If not for her brother, maybe she would have gotten a boyfriend by now.

However, she couldn’t do it, as her brother was too fragile and could die anyti.

So, she had no choice but to put her personal feelings aside and focus on her brother.

’Ron, I hope you get better soon. I can’t take it anymore.’

With that thought, she walked outside the dungeon where her two companions, Danny and Ron, were waiting for her.

As for Nell, he had already left the place as soon as he ca out of the dungeon and was heading toward his ho.

"Damn, I didn’t think that it would take so long."

A sigh left his lips, and he looked at his phone’s screen, which showed that the ti was 10:56 PM.

He had told his wife that he would be back by 7:00 PM.

But now, he had co back almost 4 hours later than he had said.

"I hope Ember is already sleeping."

Saying that he began walking at a faster pace, trying to reach his ho as quickly as possible.

As for the woman in his mind, Ember, she was sitting at the dining table, because, it was closer to the main door of the house than the bedroom.

[Your husband has left the dungeon and is heading towards the house. With his pace, he will arrive in 13 minutes and 23 seconds.]

’H-he is coming back.’

As soon as the system’s ssage arrived in front of her eyes, her body tensed, and her breathing quickened.

"Wh-What should I do? What should I do?"

A panicking expression was visible on her face, and her feet were nervously tapping the ground.

’He is coming back,’ She was nervous but also excited.

She was acting like a newlywed wife, who was eting her husband for the first ti and she didn’t know what to do.

"Calm down, calm down," She let out, and her feet stopped moving, but her heart was still beating rapidly.

’Let’s just go back to the bedroom and act as if I was asleep.’

With that thought in mind, she went to the bedroom with the help of the system’s guide.

As for Nell, he was still moving, and with his speed, he reached the main door of his apartnt after a few minutes.

"Huh, the door is open,"

He could see the door ajar which Ember had left opened in his wait and the lights inside the house were off.

’I guess Ember is sleeping,’

Thinking that, he stepped inside, through the slightly opened door, and slowly walked toward the bedroom.

*Creak~*

’Damn, this door is too noisy,’

Nell frowned, and he tried to push the door open as slowly and quietly as he could.

However, the door made a sound, and it wasn’t even low.

’Well, this is the worst-case scenario,’

Saying that Nell sneaked his head inside the room and glanced at the bed where he saw a figure covered by a blanket.

’She is sleeping,’

He thought, and let out a sigh of relief, as his gaze landed on the alarm clock that was placed on the bedside table.

It was showing 11:09 PM.

’It’s too late, and I can’t wake her up. Maybe, I should just sleep on the sofa,’

With that thought, he closed the door and moved to the living room, where he lay on the couch.

The night was young, and the stars were twinkling brightly in the sky.

As for the couple, they both had different thoughts in their minds.

For Nell, the day had ended with him getting his hands on the sword he needed and getting spied on by the Heroes sent by the people he wanted to kill.

However, for Ember, the day was not over yet.

Because the night was just beginning, and the moon was hanging in the sky.

This was a good ti for a wife to welco her husband.

But, for so reason, this wife had not greeted her husband properly.

’Why... Why isn’t he coming inside?’

Ember was confused, and a small frown was present on her face, as she lay on the bed, wearing her white nightgown.

’Does he not want to sleep beside ?’

A sad expression was visible on her face, and a sense of loneliness enveloped her heart.

She knew that it was her fault.

She shouldn’t have pretended that she was asleep and should have welcod him when he returned.

Now, the result was that her husband was not even entering the room.

’Maybe I should...’

With that incomplete thought in her mind, her legs moved, and she sat up, intending to get out of bed and approach her husband.
