Chapter 63: Chapter 63: Real Personality
Harry continued to tell the chronology of Kael’s death in detail, making Claudia’s eyes fill with tears. By the ti he finished his story, his right thumb wiped away the tears flooding his wife’s eyelids. He understood that Claudia must still find it difficult to trust him and even hate him even more because he committed cris that took people’s lives. Moreover, the killing thod was quite cruel.
"You must still be scared because I told you how I killed him," said Harry quietly.
Claudia shook her head. "No. In fact, now I am finally relieved. I don’t have to bother guessing whether you are the real murderer or not."
"I’m sorry, Claudia. I should have told you from the start."
"If I may ask, why don’t you want to tell ?" Claudia touched the back of Harry’s hand. "You’re afraid I’ll hate you?"
Harry nodded. "You will definitely think of
as a monster because I kill people, just like criminals. I rember you once defended
and said that I was not a monster. I don’t want you to change your mind just because I gave away my secret."
"I can’t possibly change my mind just because you killed soone." For a mont, Claudia sucked in the mucus that wanted to flow from her nose. "I still think of you as a human. Even if you tell
this at length, I actually support you."
A faint smile appeared on Harry’s handso face again. "Is it true? Aren’t you angry?"
"I’d be angry if you interfered in people’s affairs to the point of getting hurt."
Harry raised his head haughtily. "I don’t get hurt every ti I help people. "You can see that I was fighting ten thugs at once with Thomas."
"Then, the gunshots just now...."
"Earlier I destroyed the CCTV cara!"
Claudia snapped her fingers for a mont. "Wait a mont! Are you sure your actions weren’t caught on CCTV caras all this ti? I’m worried that one day you’ll be accused of being a real murderer."
"You forgot I’m quite intelligent and a perfectionist when it cos to carrying out secret missions? When you were almost killed at President Howard’s house, I was also very alert."
If you connect all the incidents that have occurred so far, now Claudia understands. The real culprit who created all this chaos was her own husband. However, her husband’s goal in carrying out criminal missions was to help innocent people. Her smile widened knowing that Harry was the real hero, not the antagonist of the novel. This made her give up his intention of taking revenge on Harry.
After a mont, Claudia got out of bed and took the dicine box in the storage cupboard. Then, she returned to the bed while holding her husband’s slightly bruised left hand.
"You’re hurt again. Should I scold you every ti you are very busy at night?"
Harry chuckled as he looked at his wife with intense eyes. "I like you scolding ."
"But, it doesn’t an that you deliberately hurt yourself so that I can scold you! "My mouth will also get tired after a long ti if I often scold you for the sa problem," complained Claudia while blowing on the back of Harry’s hand.
"You’re so cute, Claudia." Harry let out a happy laugh until his cheeks turned red.
If Harry looked even sweeter in her eyes, Claudia couldn’t bear to leave this world even more when she successfully completed her secret mission. If she returned to the original world, then she would have to face Harry in the real world whose attitude was the opposite of Harry in the novel world. She couldn’t bear to imagine Harry, her current husband crying when he left her.
"You too, Harry." Claudia put a pink bandage with a floral pattern on the back of Harry’s hand.
When Claudia put the dicine box on the bedside table, her husband pulled her right hand so that her body was now caught in a warm embrace. Her eyes widened when she received a sudden sweet kiss on the forehead. Her heart was pounding until it felt like it was going to explode. Felt that the kiss Harry had just given her was very special and touched her heart.
"As a reward for trusting
and forgiving , Claudia."
Claudia smiled happily stroking the soft cheek in front of her. "I have also prepared a gift for you."
"What gift is that?" Harry blinked.
"What is certain is that the gift will match the puzzle you gave previously. The gift is an appreciation that you are a hero to
and everyone."

On the other hand, the pair of fellow assistants also spent ti together at the Harperwood residence. Even though their master lives in a separate house, they still choose to live in a residence that makes them comfortable.
Sarah also asked for an explanation from Thomas, who had been planning cris with Harry. However, Sarah’s goal in wanting to hear Thomas’ story is that she doesn’t want her co-worker to be a criminal. Because she already trusted Thomas even though Thomas was hiding many secrets too.
"So that’s how it is, Sarah. Harry asked
to keep all this a secret from you and Claudia so you wouldn’t think of us as criminals."
"But, you guys made us think you were real criminals because your movents were very suspicious!"
"Initially I also wanted to report Harry’s plans to you two. But you know what kind of character my master is. If I make the slightest mistake, he will definitely kill ."
Sarah patted Thomas’ shoulder with a happy look. "What is certain is that I am relieved now. I don’t have to go through the trouble of looking for information about you and your master anymore."
Thomas raised his right eyebrow and folded his arms. "Oh, so you’ve been investigating my background secretly all this ti!"
"I also did it because of Claudia’s orders. She tried to believe her husband was a good person. That’s why she asked
to investigate your background in more depth."
"Sarah, do you know the consequences of all this ti you have been investigating my and Harry’s background?"
Sarah shrugged her shoulders with an innocent look.
Thomas burst out laughing, throwing his arm around Sarah’s shoulders. "I’m just kidding. What is certain is that I am happy to see that Claudia finally knows the truth about her husband."
