Episode 159 A woman who cannot let down her guard

The next morning.

My family and the three members of the imperial palace were gathered together in the restaurant to have breakfast.

“Lady Flora. “Did you wear a different hairpin today?”

As soon as Cyril finished her bowl of soup, she spoke to Flora, who was sitting next to me.

“Oh my. “You recognize me right away, Lady Cyril.”

Flora smiled, covering her mouth and gently folding her eyebrows. Maybe she felt better because Cyril was the first to notice her.

“Lady Flora is so beautiful that you can recognize her no matter what she does.”

“I see. “Some people don’t recognize me at all.”

At the same time, she glanced at me, who was opposite Flora.

This is what it’s like to sit still and get hit…….

If I had to be honest, I knew right away that she had replaced her hairpin with a different one from the moment I saw her in the morning.

I just forgot to mention it as I said good morning to Cecilia and Mulia and came straight to the restaurant.

“Hmm.”

Still, I couldn’t help feeling embarrassed, so I cleared my throat for no reason.

Cyril and Flora looked at me and laughed lightly.

“All men are like that, Lady Flora.”

“That’s right, Baroness Nedville.”

In just a few days after coming to our mansion, Flora became close friends not only with Cyril but also with my mother.

Thanks to this, Cyril and her mother are now starting to treat her comfortably.

There seemed to be no other way to explain Flora’s friendliness other than that she was born with it.

In contrast, Cecilia and Mulia ate relatively quietly. My father was also quiet at the table.

Brother Hans… ….

“Hmm. After all, you don’t need vegetables. “Only meat fills me.”

Today, as always, we praised meat.

I really don’t understand why he always acts like that.

I shook my head and then focused on the plate in front of me.

After finishing all the food on the plate, my father was the first to stand up. After saying hello to Cecilia, my father headed to his office.

Next, Cecilia stood up, and the rest of her people saluted her in unison.

“I’ll just go back to my room so you can be comfortable too.”

When Cecilia moved, Mulia immediately followed her.

Cecilia did not even glance in this direction.

Well, I don’t really feel sad or anything like that.

Rather, it was what I had hoped for.

Right now, if I’m with Cecilia, I feel like I’ll feel uncomfortable for some reason.

‘I should go into the room first.’

I guess I’ll just roll around in bed until Emma comes.

I stood up from the chair only after Cecilia and Mulia had completely disappeared from sight.

But it didn’t take long before someone grabbed me by the shoulders.

“Mr. Luke.”

When I turned around, I saw Flora smiling strangely.

“Lady Flora? Why do you look like that…….”

“Would you like to talk to me for a moment?”

It’s been quite a while since Flora asked to talk first.

But I had no idea what she was talking about.

“What are you talking about?”

“Hmm. “When I saw you today, I wondered what happened with your Majesty.”

“… ….”

I was stabbed to the point and ended up becoming a slaughterhouse.

“As expected, I was right about what I saw.”

“No big deal.”

“Really?”

Flora asked, tilting her head on one side. And it’s a bonus that she blinks her eyelids.

As she continues to be attacked by her eyes, the pressure on her begins to creep up.

“Young lady. That bathroom is in a hurry…….”

“I’ll go with you.”

A strong enemy… ….

I finally raised my hands to chest level in surrender. Only then did Flora let go of my shoulder.

“Would you like to come to my room?”

“Oh my! “It’s what I hoped for!”

Flora exclaimed and clapped her hands in delight.

Coming to think of it, Flora is the only person I can trust and talk to at times like this.

Even though Flora looks light on the outside, she sometimes has a deep side.

“Follow me.”

“Yes.”

I went to my room with Flora.

* * *

As soon as I entered the room, I put the lock on the door.

“Where should I sit?”

Flora’s tone was more excited than usual.

In addition to that, she moved her head around and examined every corner of my room.

No matter how I looked, there was no sign of finding a seat.

It seemed closer to an action as if he was trying to capture the entire scene of my room in his eyes.

“Would you like to sit on the bed over there?”

“Okay. Then I will sit down without hesitation.”

Flora gathered the hem of her dress in her hands and sat down on the bed. Then she carefully stroked the blanket with her hands and uttered onomatopoeia words like hmm, ooh, and so on.

I took her chair out of her desk and moved it to face her.

“Young lady.”

“Oh. Are you ready now?”

In response to her question, I nodded her head.

As I sat down in her chair, Flora met my gaze with her hands neatly placed on her dress.

From noble mtl dot net

Immediately after that, a sigh escaped from between my lips.

It was because when I sat down with her, I started to hesitate, wondering if it was okay to say this.

Flora seemed to have sensed this as well and asked the question in a somewhat cautious tone.

“Are you having trouble speaking?”

“Um… ….”

It was difficult to give an easy answer.

Flora did not rush me and waited calmly.

Her emerald eyes were full of confidence. His eyes look as if he firmly believes that I will tell him something.

‘Still, I can trust Flora.’

She has been working with her in the imperial palace for over half a year and has been sharing her daily life.

That’s why I knew it well.

That she would not reveal to anyone the secret she shared with me.

I took a deep breath.

“Young lady. You must never tell anyone.”

“Of course. I swear here.”

Flora placed her right hand on her chest.

“I heard something surprising from Your Majesty yesterday.”

“Oh. “What is it like?”

Flora showed her interest with her eyes wide open.

“That… ….”

“Huh?”

“The truth is that Her Majesty Cecilia and I…… They said they were eighth cousins.”

“… ….”

Flora opened her mouth and she only blinked her eyelids.

She clearly doubts whether what she heard right now is correct.

After a moment of silence, she raised her voice again.

“It’s amazing… ….”

For Flora, it was a fairly decent response.

It was clear that he controlled his emotions a lot because he thought of me.

“Since I heard about it yesterday, how can I say it… ….”

“You seem to find it difficult to treat His Majesty as usual?”

“Yes… ….”

When I confided in Flora, it felt like the constriction in a corner of her heart was relieved a little.

“It certainly deserves it.”

Flora nodded her head with her face of understanding.

Naturally, I felt that she understood me.

“By the way…… Hmm… ….”

She blurs the tail of her words, as if trying to choose her words carefully.

“Can I be a little more direct?”

“Yes. Please do what you normally do.”

Flora hmmm, cleared her throat, then moved her lips.

“Even if Mr. Luke is your majesty’s eighth cousin, I don’t think it will change the current relationship.”

“… ….”

“I didn’t know it before, but I knew it yesterday. How will that affect the relationship we’ve built so far?”

In fact, she was aware to some extent.

Even if it’s a relative, if it’s an eighth cousin, it’s quite a distance.

However, it gave me a strange feeling of discomfort. Because of that, dealing with Cecilia became slightly uncomfortable.

But in reality, it didn’t have any effect on the relationship between me and Cecilia. Other than just feeling a little uncomfortable in my heart.

“I don’t think that the relationship of trust I have built with Your Majesty will be damaged because of that fact alone. Mr. Luke is not the type of person to do that.”

“Yes, that’s right…” ….”

“By any chance, how was your Majesty? “It’s time to let Mr. Luke know about this.”

Is it because the water was opened once?

I asked Flora several times what the relationship was between my father and Cecilia, and she told me that she had finally heard the secret yesterday.

It was also mentioned that Cecilia hesitated to tell him.

“It seems that His Majesty is also concerned.”

“Yes. “I’m sure you did.”

After hearing my answer, Flora covered her mouth with her hand and frowned slightly.

She was glad to see Flora since it had been a while since she showed her serious side, but at the same time she thought she was cute even when she frowned.

“I think it would be good for Mr. Luke to tell His Majesty clearly.”

When I tilted my head, not knowing what she was talking about, Flora gently curled her lips and smiled.

“Even if we are cousins, I will still give my allegiance to His Majesty as Secretary.”

“I said something similar yesterday… ….”

Flora shook her head without even hearing what I said.

“I need to convince your Majesty more. Since His Majesty has listened to Mr. Luke’s request, shouldn’t Mr. Luke also show a corresponding sincerity?”

“Sincerity… ….”

I repeated the words she emphasized.

Then, she felt the fog in her mind suddenly clear.

“Lady Flora is right.”

“Right?”

“Yes. Yesterday I wasn’t sure about myself either. But not anymore. “I know that the relationship I have built so far with Your Majesty will not be destroyed by something like this.”

“I’m glad you realized it!”

Flora expressed her joy as if it were her own work.

Thanks to that, I gained more confidence than before.

“The next time you see Your Majesty, be sure to do as I tell you. “Even though I look like this, I am also your Majesty’s childhood friend, so you can trust me.”

“You are a very reliable ally. Thank you.”

Flora waved her hand lightly, saying that this arrangement was natural.

“hehehe. “I did a great job today, so I think I should get some rewards later, right?”

As soon as the consultation is over, things return to normal…….

As expected, Flora is a woman who cannot let her guard down until the end.

“If everything goes well today, I will put a condition on it.”

“Of course. But I’m confident. “I’m sure it will all work out!”

Her face was filled with confidence.

“Yes. “It will work out well.”

Flora nodded her head loudly as if she was satisfied with my answer. She then said she would go and left my room.

I looked down at her seat where she had been sitting astride a moment ago.

‘That’s right. It’s not a problem that should be so preoccupied.’

Even though I know that we are cousins, there is no wavering in my decision to leave the empire and her side.

However, we need to maintain our current relationship well so that it does not fall apart.

“The next four months.”

I decided to do just that much better.
