Chapter 13
Lucky 13
Scarlett yawned and stretched her body, she was sleeping in her soft bed. She stared at the ceiling and recalled that she was dead drunk last night. She started blushing when she remembered how she cried on the shoulder of her father. She lost her reasoning and wept, Bronal tapped her head and comforted her.
"What have I've done..."
Scarlett started saying her dissatisfaction, she cried while saying that she missed her past father. Bronal chuckled while calming her, the maids and the head butler were surprised while looking at them. Alfred started wiping his tears, he was an old man who knew them since they were young. Alfred took care of Bronal when he was a child and so did he with Scarlett.
Alfred understood that Bronal had to become tough to protect his family, he was sad looking at Bronal as he was shouldering the responsibility. However, right now, Alfred was having tears of joy while watching them. It was good, sometimes Bronal should show his fatherly side to his daughter so that Scarlett won't feel sad.
As for Athena, she was smiling the whole time. In fact, she was secretly taking pictures of Scarlett crying like a baby. She was grinning while tapping her phone.
Scarlett fell asleep while crying on her father's shoulder, she looked like a child that had a reconciliation with her dad. She was smiling as she slept peacefully.
"Ouch, damn"
Scarlett cursed and massaged her forehead, she was having a hangover and her head was heavy. She wanted to remain in the room but she heard that her father would leave. As a general, Bronal had a lot of duties that he needed to do, he was a busy man. Most of the time, Scarlett would see him in the military having a stiff face, Scarlett and Bronal had a crack relationship but not anymore. They both realized that they were just shy to each other.
Scarlett stood while her body was wobbly, this feeling was different compared to when she woke up after having sex with Calix. She didn't feel refreshed. This was her first time drinking and she immediately passed her limit, it seemed like she cried the whole time she was drunk. Scarlett promised that she won't ever drink again. She could find another hobby, such as sex, especially with Calix.
Pah!
Scarlett slapped her cheeks, she reddened realizing that her thoughts went to Calix and her playing with fire. That was embarrassing yet a great part of her wanted to try it again. She was mesmerized by how they did it, she looked at the shelf. The books(erotica) that she left in the mansion last time were neatly arranged.
"It's strange that I'm more inclined to have sex with Calix than drinking alcohol."
She talked to herself. She only had him two days ago but she was now craving for him again. Scarlett touched her chest, it was beating hard just by thinking of him. She was happy.
However, someone knocked on her door which caused her to cease her imagination.
"Who's there?"
"Lady Scarlett, Master Bronal is going to leave now. He's waiting for you at the entrance."
"Okay, I'll go there."
She heard Athena and she started changing her clothes, she was wearing pink pajamas. She bet Athena was the one who changed her while she was sleeping, Athena loved the color pink.
Scarlett wore a simple white dress with frills on the shoulder and neck part. [Note: The author is stupid whenever it's related to female fashion, please forgive him.]
Scarlett opened the door and went downstairs, there she saw her father waiting for her.
Bronal had his usual expression, a cold and rough one. He didn't show any emotions and remained poker face. If not for the event that happened yesterday, Scarlett would immediately think that Bronal didn't care about her because of having this cold expression. But now Scarlett knew that deep within that expression, her father was still doting and loving her.
Scarlett didn't feel any fear while looking at him, not anymore. She approached him while having a smile, she greeted his father.
"Good morning father."
"Un, I will now go. Make sure you have your headache cured. You can stay here as long as you like, you don't have to go to school right away. You can relax, I call your school and they agree to give you three days to unwind."
Bronal said those things while having a stiff expression, he didn't show any emotions but Scarlett knew that her father cared for her. She nodded and slightly smiled, she was happy that she knew her father more now.
"Ah, as for Chen, you don't have to think about him. I will talk to the CEO."
Bronal confirmed, he wanted to ease her problems. Scarlett tilted her head although, after some seconds, she remembered that Chen Cudgel almost raped her using the aphrodisiac. She nodded and believe in Bronal. But if Chen tried to assault her again, she won't hesitate to burn him.
"Good, I will now leave."
"Be careful daddy."
Bronal tapped her head, he left after that. Scarlett breathed well now, she realized that her father was just being strict but his love was there.
Her fortunate experience was actually because of the luck that she got from Calix. She was greatly affected by Calix's Term Attribute causing her relationship with her father to be fixed. Scarlett was still oblivious but she will realize it as time passed. As long as she had sex with Calix, her luck would flourish like a flower blossoming in the summer.
The power that Calix had was too strong, especially for females. Their luck would further increase that sometimes, miracles would happen around them.
As for Calix, the Luck Term Attribute still affecting him but not that great. His luck mostly focuses on girls but that doesn't mean that he was unfortunate. In fact, his luck with girls was just getting started.
Now, Calix was in the library and reading books related to deciphering Term Attributes. However, he was confused why women kept looking and glancing at him. The backlash of his power disappeared and his natural pretty face shows, that's the reason.
