Rocco's Brave Blunder

It seemed his approach was the right one, as Young Master Rocco let out a relieved sigh, no longer showing any signs of wariness.

Without hesitation, he walked into the room.

...The complete lack of caution made Stroudsburg feel uneasy.

He was so defenseless, it was worrying.

However, Stroudsburg quickly realized that it was precisely this unguarded innocence that captivated others.

As Young Master Rocco approached Marcus and awkwardly bowed to greet him, Stroudsburg understood everything in that moment.

"—I-I'm sorry! I'm Rocco!"

The greeting was so clumsy it almost felt like a school play.

With an overly deep bow, Young Master Rocco lost his balance and tumbled forward, his small body rolling over in a somersault.

He fell with a soft thud, looking up with wide, confused eyes, clearly unsure of what had just happened.

Seeing this, Marcus groaned loudly, and blood spurted from his nose.
