Episode 156 I’ve been waiting for this moment
Episode 156 I’ve been waiting for this moment
I used the carriage at our mansion every day for several days.
There is only one reason.
It was to introduce various parts of the Nedeville estate to Cecilia, Flora, and Mulia, who had traveled all the way from Deleson to this faraway place.
I never thought that I would end up serving as an exclusive secretary when I returned to my hometown.
But, well, I didn’t feel any major discomfort during the few days I spent there.
Cecilia did not reveal her identity to anyone except our family, and not even her maids.
Emma, the only one other than my family who knew the truth, was keeping her identity secret from her family.
“Luke. “Did you say you were going to the river today?”
“Yes. “It’s called the Connell River.”
“I see.”
Cecilia nodded her head.
Then Flora, who was next to her, showed great anticipation.
“It must be a different feeling from Lake Hennessey, right?”
Lake Hennessey was a place we went to enjoy a vacation some time ago.
At the same time, it was also the place where Cecilia wrote her name with her buttocks as her punishment… ….
‘Keuhum.’
I guess I’ll end my rude thoughts here.
“Mr. Luke? “Why are you suddenly clearing your throat?”
“Ah. “I just felt like something was suddenly stuck in my throat.”
“Aha.”
But I felt a gaze piercing me from the side.
I feel like I know who it is even without looking, so I shouldn’t look… ….
“It’s been a while since I’ve been to the river, so I’m looking forward to it.”
When Mulia joined the conversation, I felt Mr. Nunu’s laser-like eyes disappear.
I sighed in relief and answered the maids.
“Because it is a river, it is very different from a lake. And the surrounding scenery will be worth seeing.”
The maids’ expressions became brighter at my remarks.
Flora went further and asked Emma, who was standing next to me, what the Connell River was like.
“It’s a great place to hang out and relax, Lady Marquis Simonian.”
“Oh my! I also like to take my time. Good for you.”
For your information, thanks to correcting my address over the past few days, I am now able to use very basic etiquette.
“Okay. “Now, let’s leave quickly.”
I stood next to the carriage and held out my right hand.
The first person to get on the carriage was Cecilia, followed by Flora, Mulia, and Emma in that order.
After closing the carriage door, I headed to the coach seat.
If all five of us wanted to travel together, there was no other way than for me to drive the carriage.
Well, it’s not like I haven’t driven a carriage at all.
I grabbed the reins and shook them lightly.
The pony began to move forward leisurely, leading the carriage.
‘If you go there, you will definitely want to take a ferry boat… ….’
When I thought about that, I sighed involuntarily.
As expected, being a travel guide is not something everyone can do.
* * *
As soon as we arrived at the Connell River, I laid out a mat under the shade of a tree with Emma.
Not only that, drinks and desserts were also prepared.
Is it the end there? No way.
As I expected, I had to fulfill the role of a ferryman.
And finally, the role of a coachman who must safely take you to the mansion…….
What is this feeling of coming back to my hometown to rest and then work continuing on? ….
But what was fortunate was that Cecilia understood my hardships.
“You’re having a hard time taking care of me and the maids even during the vacation.”
Immediately after getting off her carriage, Cecilia looked at me and spoke in a gentle tone.
“No. As his direct secretary, it is natural to serve His Majesty.”
“But that doesn’t change the fact that you are working hard for me and the maids, even during the vacation period.”
Cecilia says this, so there’s no need to decline again.
“Yes. You’re right.”
“It’s actually nice to hear an honest answer.”
Cecilia smiled, raising the corners of her mouth. Then she made me a pleasant offer.
“When I return to Deleson, I will give you a small reward.”
“Are you sure?”
“I won’t say anything twice.”
There was no hesitation in Cecilia’s ruby eyes.
Well, if you think about it, this woman has never once broken a promise she made with her own mouth.
“Congratulations, Your Majesty.”
I bowed closely and expressed my respect.
‘I hope to receive at least 500 gold…….’
With this wish deep inside.
But Flora, who heard this nearby,
“Mr. Luke. I will also give you a present as a token of my appreciation!”
She shouted, raising her right hand.
Then she stood still, until Mulia said she would show her gratitude.
I also thanked the ladies-in-waiting.
“Miss Emma. “Are you coming tomorrow too?”
“Yes, Lady Marquis Simonian.”
Emma was no longer nervous against the three members of the Imperial Palace. After spending a few days together, she seemed to have gotten used to it to some extent.
“It was nice to have a pleasant conversation with Miss Emma today.”
“Thank you very much, Lady Count Fordward. “I really enjoyed it too.”
“I look forward to what I will do with you tomorrow.”
“I, too, am looking forward to it, Your Majesty… ….”
Of course, he still trembled in front of Cecilia.
Still, this was a great development.
I told them I would drop off her Emma.
“Then we should go in first.”
“Have a nice trip, Mr. Luke!”
“Please be careful.”
I said yes to the three women. Then he beckoned Emma to come closer.
Emma bowed 90 degrees to Cecilia and only then came to my side.
“Do you still find it difficult to deal with His Majesty?”
As soon as I left the grounds of her mansion, I spoke to Emma.
“Yes. “He still seems a bit scary.”
Perhaps because she was left alone with me, Emma opened up about her honest feelings.
“But you’re a nicer person than you look.”
“Yes. I think so.”
Emma nodded her head.
Well, in fact, this evaluation is based on the present when he has not become a tyrant.
As I was walking alone with Emma on a quiet road, peace seemed to come to my heart.
I slowly raised my head and was able to see the peaceful and beautiful sight of the sun setting.
The sky turns scarlet and a group of clouds swim above it.
I continued to look at the scene that would soon disappear.
“Luke?”
“Huh?”
When I turned my head to the right, I was able to make eye contact with Emma.
“I had an interesting conversation with them when I went to the Cornell River today.”
“Everyone seemed to be chatting happily in the carriage.”
“Did you hear everything?”
Emma asked back with her eyes wide open.
She answered that I don’t know exactly what we talked about.
It is true that sound actually leaked from inside the carriage. However, instead of an accurate sound, only a mumbling sound was heard.
In addition, external noises such as rolling carriage wheels and horses’ hooves were heard louder.
“That’s right.”
“What did we talk about?”
“We talked about you.”
“Me?”
From noble mtl dot net
I pointed my index finger to my chest and Emma shook her head.
“You didn’t curse at me, did you?”
“It’s not like that.”
Emma laughed lightly.
“Just, um…… “He mainly told me about what kind of work you do at the imperial palace.”
“It seems Lady Flora told me about it.”
“Right.”
Emma shook her head.
“Especially, His Majesty seems to have deep trust in you.”
“That’s a bit embarrassing.”
I touched the back of my neck for no reason.
“What else?”
“And um…… “He was also curious about how you were doing in the estate.”
“I see… ….”
“I haven’t told you yet, but you said you really want to hear it.”
“Really?”
As soon as I asked the question, Emma shook her head and said yes.
“Yes. “All three of you did that.”
“Umm… ….”
I wish we wouldn’t talk about our shameful past… ….
Is it because I look troubled?
Emma patted my chest lightly, telling me not to worry too much.
“On the contrary, I have less trust… ….”
“Just trust me. “I’ll only tell you good things.”
In no time, we arrived in front of Emma’s house. Only after I saw her go inside, did she turn towards me again.
‘Now that I think about it, isn’t it time to let you know?’
Cecilia told me clearly the night she arrived at our estate.
You will find out soon enough.
Cecilia and her maids asked Emma to tell them a story about my past.
In that case, wouldn’t I also be able to ask Cecilia to talk to me?
Because my father is directly involved.
“I’ll have to tell you when I get back.”
I quickly walked back to the mansion.
* * *
After enjoying her sumptuous dinner, Cecilia tried to return to her own room.
I moved after her.
When she had finished climbing the stairs to the second floor, Cecilia opened her mouth while staring straight ahead.
“Do you have something to say to me?”
“Yes, Your Majesty.”
“How much should I do now?”
“Yes.”
Only then did Cecilia stop her steps and turn towards this direction.
“What is that?”
“I would like to ask about what Your Majesty promised a few days ago.”
“It was a few days ago… ….”
Cecilia covered her mouth with her hand and looked worried.
After a while, she seemed to realize something about herself and let out a soft exclamation.
“It was the story you were most curious about.”
“That’s right.”
“… ….”
Looks like he’s lost in worry again.
I’m sure you’re not trying to say two things out of one’s mouth, right?
I stared at her lips in a nervous state.
“I would like to talk with your father around 8 o’clock.”
Luckily, Cecilia was a woman who kept her words!
“Is that okay?”
“Yes. Of course.”
“Then come to my room before 8 o’clock.”
With those words, Cecilia turned her body around. I bent down towards her back as she walked away.
Finally, I was able to answer a question I had been harboring for a long time!
