58 Brother’s anger (1/2)
... and of course, we didn't.
”WHAT DID YOU JUST SAY CECILE?”
Haa... its only squirrels right, furthermore Miss Julia rather happy with the sales and even the Crown Prince is happy why would Brother be so upset?
I know I'm making money by the degrading nickname, but I'm only trying to re-mean it you know~?
”Brother, even the Crown Prince is not bothered by the plush squirrels why you are so upset?”
”Who would car about stupid squirrels?! No! That's not it. We will talk about Julia's issue later. What I want to know is how my sheltered sister, who was raised like a Princess, is now the Boss of the most terrifying dark organization in our country!”
When Brother stopped his ranting, he took deep breaths. Yes, breath or else you might explode, you are almost purple dear Brother.
”Wow there, are you okay, Brother? Do you want some tea to calm your nerves? You know you shouldn't stress yourself this much it is bad for your health”
”C E C I L E”
Gritting his teeth, Brother pronounced my name like King Yama calling my soul from hell. I never saw him so angry, not even when we argued because of Julia. His eyes were staring at me so intently that I could only avoid his intense gaze and concentrate on the circles that I was making with my foot while trying to think in ways to minimize his anger.
”Ah, hm, you see Brother, not long you left, IP was attacked by Marc. You know Marc, right? He was my predecessor, and he was actually-”
”Cecile”
”Right you don't want to know about him, sorry. So he attacked me and after I brilliantly planned a trap for him we were able caught him and sentence him with the punishment imposed by the law. The thing is that he had too many people working for him. The King didn't know what to do with them, and I coincidentally needed subordinates that do the kind of job they were specialized. This was the best option don't you think?”
Brother only sighed and put his head in his hand in response.
”You shouldn't be so worried they are great people now after a pleasant training. Besides, you know that Father wouldn't let me face danger more than I need to. He assigned Theo to be 7/24 with me. Is kind of tiring but this was the only way that he stopped his nagging, so Brother-”
”I will visit your dark organization base”
”... okay. When do you wanna go?”
”Now”
”Na-an. Can't do it. Today is your first day back if I drag you somewhere that terrifying woman will kill me”
”And can I know who the terrifying woman is Cecile-Chan?”
With a voice filled with dangerous warnings, Mother, who just came back after calling her husband and son to come and welcome her first born, was glowering daggers at me.
