Chapter 1. Nursery School Life

Episode 1

“Let’s break up.”

What was the first thought that came to your mind when you said to break up? What did I do wrong? It wasn’t that I didn’t see it coming.

That said, it is not polite to reply with, ‘Yes, let’s break up’ as if it were natural. So, I asked as calmly as possible.

“What’s the matter? What did I do wrong?”

Peter, with a blue bruise on his face, took a deep breath.

Peter and I have been seeing each other for 67 days. What a whopping 67 days!

That time of almost two months was the longest period of my many romances. In other words, my past boyfriends barely made it past a month.

So this time, I expected to be able to date one guy for 100 days, so I was a bit disappointed that Peter said goodbye.

“What… No way! You’re a really good girl!”

Peter shouted like a well-trained soldier.

“It’s just that I’m a man who lacks compared to you! You did nothing wrong!”

That tone was as dry as reading a book. I felt a strange sense of dread.

I think it was like this with Johnny four months ago.

“Elizabeth Herrington. You’re such a perfect woman! On the other hand, I’m so pathetic that I don’t deserve to be with you! So let’s stop here.”

Oh. It came to mind. The last time with Johnny.

No, right? Johnny isn’t the only one. Before Johnny, it was the same with Charles, and before Charles… Crap.

“Did you plan this?”

“What? What?”

“Tell me honestly. Do you know Johnny Wyvern? Charles Evans?”

“What are you talking about? I don’t even know those people.”

“Then explain why you broke up with me saying the same thing as them.”

“Uh, I don’t know what you’re talking about. How do I know why your ex-boyfriends broke up with you?”

“Hah…”

To be honest, I’m pretty.

Nothing is missing, including my face, body, personality, property, and family. That doesn’t mean I’m great enough to give inferiority to my partner.

If you find it well, there are more beautiful people than me, and I have a tough personality. My younger siblings have a lot of money, but I’m at a normal level. And my family…

“Can you be honest with me? Otherwise…”

After gulping down the water in the cup, I put it down so that it could make a sound.

No matter how hard it was placed, the water cup cracked. Peter’s complexion turned pale at the appearance.

Peter only knows that I have a little bit of a spooky side when I grew up with my brothers, but sometimes I didn’t even know that I could get this rough. But it can’t be helped.

‘I’ve been taking care of everything by myself over the years.’

As a young girl, who was unable to stay healthy, I tried to feed as many as three younger brothers, so I naturally became rough.

In addition, when the younger siblings are all unusual, the older sister naturally goes out of the normal category. For example, I have sharp hunches.

With this hunch, I even caught how Leo’s a two-face! He acts like a puppy at home with his sister, me, but becomes a cold prosecutor outside.

Now the hunch knocked wildly. Obviously, Peter Hudson has a secret. And the secret may take a big part in my last relationship.

“It’s better to say it when I ask nicely. Unlike you, I grew up differently, so I know ninety-nine ways to make someone silent.”

When I smiled, Peter gasped and swallowed his breath.

I checked Peter’s hand shaking, and he hid his hands under the table without even drinking the water in front of him.

His shoulder, which was tightly scrunched up, told me how much he was worrying right now.

“I’ll give you three seconds.”

And I quickly started counting the seconds.

“Three.”

The reason why it’s not 10 seconds, but 3 seconds is because I’m in a hurry.

“Two”.

My personality has become urgent because I’ve been waiting for payday the whole time I grew up.

“One.”

And the reason why I waited for my payday is because…

“It’s because of your little brothers!”

It was because of my younger brothers.

“What? My younger brothers?”

What? The reason I get dumped like this is because of the younger members? What’s the connection?

“Are you breaking up with me because of my brothers?”

“Yeah!”

“What’s wrong with my younger brothers?”

Of course, my younger brothers are the most outstanding figures in this country.

If you joke that they were hand-created by God, it would be believable. Perfect appearance, great geniuses without losing a single hair, and how well they make money…

It’s the best of the best, except for the fact that they’re also rude, sensitive, shy, and a bit of a disappointment.

“What? Was it because you felt like you were being compared to my younger siblings?”

“Sigh. That’s not it…”

Peter clenched his teeth. I massaged my face dry as if it was bothering me too.

“Peter. They are them and you are you. Why are you tormenting yourself being compared to my younger siblings?”

“No, no. The reason I asked to break up was…”

Peter’s fingers rubbed the wounds on his cheeks that had not even scabbed yet.

Breaking up is breaking up, but I’ve had a weird feeling about where the wound came from. It was then.

“Elizabeth. Listen well. Your brothers…”

Peter leaned over to me, whispered softly and confessed about the terrible things that have happened to him over the past few days.

~*~

I don’t know what spirit I came back home with.

I couldn’t believe what Peter said, so I checked it one by one, and the sun went down, and in the end, everything he said proved true and I was mesmerized.

So, what Peter said is…

“You know well that your youngest brother, Leonard, is the youngest sword master, right? He’s using that power to beat your lovers.”

Then he carefully rubbed the wounds on his face.

Although Leonard is the type of person who causes trouble, he does not attack people recklessly.

Is that kind of kid beating his sister’s lover? That’s nonsense. At first, he was shy so he couldn’t even make eye contact with my ex!

But Peter continued with what he was going to say without even giving me a moment to retort, saying, ‘My brother doesn’t do that!’

“Your second brother, Daniel, used his brain to bankrupt me in three days!”

This couldn’t have been the case. Daniel is a soft-hearted and delicate child.

Since becoming the owner of the magic tower, Daniel has induced bankruptcy when he has been working hard to help others enough to sponsor the tower and nursery every year.

“This is absurd…”

“Listen to the end!”

Peter raised his voice, swallowed his saliva, and closed his eyes. Then he confessed.

“Your first brother Edward is the king of the underworld. The owner of the Lammore Company and Dome Blinder is your brother, Edward Herrington!”

The Lammore Company is a new company that has been doing all sorts of bad things in the underworld and has recently started to appear as a trading company.

Dome Blinder is the first I’ve ever heard of, but Peter says it’s a huge behind-the-scenes thing in which money at the national level can be flexed.

I don’t know what ‘this’ is…

“Let’s say my brother is the king of the underworld. What does that have to do with breaking up with me?”

“Because your family’s existence itself is too scary!”

Peter said he would never see my younger siblings because he was afraid and scared, and disappeared as if running away, leaving the last words of ‘Then are we completely separated now?’

And I came home from running all day looking for evidence to support what Peter said.

“Sigh.”

I feel like my head is going to explode. Because it turned out that Peter’s words were true.

‘I hate to believe it. My brothers are the villains…!’

As I was about to go up the stairs, Edward came out at the entrance of the stairs. His unique elegant appearance was more beautiful than any other nobles of the Empire.

But today, I didn’t see that. My body almost stiffened at the sight of him, but fortunately, he grumbled as usual.

“That’s the 67th break up.”

Then Edward spoke in his characteristic elegant tone.

“Sister. Throw that man away. I will introduce you to a good man around me.”

“Huh…it’s okay.”

In fact, it was shocking that Edward was the king of the underworld, but it is understandable that Peter was afraid of Edward.

Edward is… To be honest, my brother was too cold-blooded. There is no blood or tears, so I am not the only one who worries about whether I will do well in society or whether my work life will be disrupted as an older sister.

So, by Edward’s standards, a decent man… Honestly I’m not looking forward to it.

“I want to take a break from dating for a while.”

Actually, what I heard from Peter is shocking, so I don’t know if I’ll be able to sleep well today, let alone date.

Rubbing my eyes, I sighed. Not knowing, Edward raised the corners of his lips thinly.

“I’m tired, so I’m going to bed. Good night.”

I passed Edward and went up the stairs. As I was walking down the hallway, I met Daniel.

I don’t know if he was waiting for me or if he came out of the room after hearing the voices on the stairs.

“Sister. That man named Peter, after doing a background check, owes 30 million berks.”

I stared at Daniel with a very worried face.

Then Daniel shook his head and bowed his head as if puzzled.

Hey, Daniel… That’s the debt you made him lose…

“Sister?”

A sigh escaped my lips.

My head hurts and I didn’t want to talk more today.

I can’t understand. Why…

“Let’s talk tomorrow. I feel tired.”

I left Daniel alone and went back to the room, tumbling.

When I opened the door, a huge bear-like creature from inside jumped out like a spring. He asked me in a cheerful tone that did not suit his large size.

“Sister. Sister! They said you broke up! Don’t get married, and live with us for the rest of your life!”

The youngest, Leonard, held me tight and rubbed his hair against me like a puppy.

As I gently patted Leonard and tried to remove him, I could see black, dried up drops of blood on the hem of Leonard’s robe.

Then I remembered Peter confessing that my youngest brother had beaten him.

Although Leonard was unable to control his energy and had various accidents, he was basically an innocent and cheerful child.

A kid like that hit someone…? And it was his sister’s boyfriend…?

‘I can’t.’

I can’t, I can’t, but…

Every man I meet, after meeting the youngest, strangely avoids me… Just hearing the name of my youngest brother made them tremble like that…

No… Would you?

My angelic younger brothers who were so gentle and cute, were like the villains in a novel!

These are the younger brothers who are interfering with my relationship… God, where did I go wrong?
