Vol 1 Chapter 31 (1/2)

Chapter 31, Dear G.o.d (Angelica-sama), I repent.

Author:

A serious chapter(?)

Since there are some stuff left over, it might get serious from here on.

Phew.

Having enjoyed the ‘punishment’ with Angelica, I need to speak to her about the future.

‘Crime and Punishment’ was an effect shock therapy that removed grief from her face. If I am to bring it up, it should be now.

I lift Angelica off from my lap and place her down next to me on the sofa. When I gazed down at her face, which was still dyed red, she too fixed herself up having noticed the change in the atmosphere.

“Angelica……”

“What is it, Kyle-sama?”

“Regarding this incident…… I decided to speed up the betrothal between Louis and Jessica. It will be done tonight. Also, Jessica won’t be coming to cla.s.ses for some time. During that time, Louis will be nursing Jessica, so there might be weird rumours……”

When I explained this much, she seemed to have understood everything. “Alright. I’ll do my utmost to follow up,” she responded.

She really does have good insight. If I tell her one thing, she gets ten things.

That aspect is similar to Louis.

A superb family, indeed.

The commotion this time makes a great material for n.o.bles, whom by nature love gossip.

The retirement of the teacher who had rumours about him. The hurried betrothal between the two who came out of his room. On top of that, those two are staying in the same room for days.

It’s practically saying, ‘make conjectures please.’

n.o.bles just love to gossip. By tomorrow, wrong conjectures will spread in rumours as if they were true. And it’s hard to suppress gossip that has already spread. Then, the surrounding people have to follow up properly.

Three couples came out of that room.

As the people directly involved, if we continue to act as usual, or even friendlier, we’ll be able to avoid vulgar rumours.

Louis is involved as well, so there should be no shocking developments for Jessica. By the time she comes out of that room, she’ll have become one happy girl.

If Jessica is happy, there will be less people making false conjectures.

Louis is the person to protect Jessica even if he is forced to change. Even if that is due to formless rumours of bad taste.

Louis has quite the political ac.u.men for his age.

Furthermore, regarding matters on Angelica and Jessica, he effortlessly eliminated sons and daughters of n.o.bles.

Regarding Jessica, there aren’t any students who would dare go against Louis in this country.

So, while we are absent from their side, it should be fine if Angelica protects Jessica’s reputation.

She has that much power, huh. Come to think of it, there were bad rumours floating around at the time of the incident with Robert. But Angelica had protected Jessica then as well.

If it’s for that, she does not hesitate to borrow my authority.

This time, because she feels guilt, she is trying to protect Jessica even harder………

It’s hard for us to defend Jessica in women’s society. So we have to ask Angelica to do it, but I’m worried about her.

We’ll never know who was the most hurt person in this incident. However, it’s sure that Angelica did get hurt as well. Even though I know it, to request such a thing, I wonder if I’m a cruel fiancé.
