The King's Beloved Mafia Concubine
SKKM CHAPTER 38 - Confused

"Already, King!"

Everyone in the training room tried to stop Izek from beating up one of the members. The man was bleeding but Izek was still beating him.

The boxing gloves on Izek's hands were full of blood and even splashed on his handsome face.

"Why did you vent it on him, Iz!"

Suddenly the awaited voice finally came as well. Izek stopped hitting and stared intently at the newly arrived Akash.

"I'm sorry I was late, I just met Grace" Akash said as if deliberately making the mafia king angry.

Akash walked into the ring wearing his gloves.

For a moment Izek and Akash just fought each other until they finally advanced and clashed boxing.

Tense circumstances, no one dared to open their voice. Only the sound of blows from Izek and Akash could be heard in that training room.

"Your ability seems to be progressing" Izek commented.

"You think I haven't practiced all this time, all you see is that I'm just playing around, right?" Akash answered while throwing his punch at his cousin.

Izek several times managed to fend off Akash's attacks.

"You always underestimate me, Iz," said Akash who would not give up on attacking Izek.

Akash's emotions make Izek have a gap, the man kicks his foot up about Akash's chin which makes him fall straight down.

"Damn!" as Akash gripped his mouth, which was bleeding.

Izek smiled cynically as he walked out of the ring, the man chose to leave Akash there.

Apparently the fight was again a byword in the palace. And Grace was definitely the target.

"You've heard King Izek fighting real battles with young master Akash in the ring?"

"Yes, this time it doesn't seem like an exercise!"

"King Draco and Queen Ellen are also not as romantic as usual, either,"

"It's all just because of one person,"

The voices were deliberately amplified to sound in Grace's ears.

Grace was working on it in the library and the waiters seemed to purposely gossip it because they did not have the task of cleaning the library.

"What's interesting about him? He's far from standard!"

Now Grace has to pretend she didn't hear anything. She can't cry anymore or they'll laugh at her more.

"Does Miss want to go back to the room?" ask Lurika who can't stand it.

Grace nodded, seemingly confining herself in the room was the right decision.

"Look at him go! Besides being mute, she must be deaf too!"

There was no resistance at all from Grace, she chose to leave, lying that she was not hurt. But, crying was useless, all Grace could do was endure.

On the way to her room, Grace sees Izek from a distance.

Izek was well-groomed and handsome, seeing Grace, the man asked Giel to invite Grace to come to him.

The two then walked towards the palace garden.

"Are you better now?" ask Izek.

Awkwardly, Grace nodded without even looking at Izek.

This was beyond Grace's expectations, she thought Izek would be angry but the man chose to defend her and be by her side.

Now what should I do?

Grace asked herself in confusion.

Did I ask him to just take me off?

Yeah, that's a lot better

But how do I talk to him?

Grace just remembered that she could read now.

I have to write a letter!
