Chapter 38 (2/2)
“Vi- What was said by Verbena?”
The Duke turns just his head tomy back,
“Yes She asked why you, Duke, chose ood about someone like me”
I frankly tell him
Whereupon Verbena who is startled by my overly frank words,
“Eh?, hat are you saying? O, ohohohohoho!”
Although beautiful face stiffens she laughs and tries to lie
“Is that so? Verbena?”
“……”
Maybe thinking that it will be hard to cover up her lie, Verbena silently hangs her head in shame
“What, such a thing, I will talk about as much as you like!”
The Duke suddenly gives a broad smile
“ehh?”
“Huhh??”
Verbena raises her head in surprise What is This Person saying?! I becoht man in a comedy
In a way like hiki-n[1] without worrying about the frozen atreatest chareous but she is not the type who is fickle She is also level-headed and, despite being considerably younger than me……” The Duke ends up boast about me at last! Moreover it is furnished with a full face smile like ‘I cannot say anymore than this’! N-O-!! So but, there are a lot of people around?Up till now have they just been watching over our exchange with bated breath?
How long the conversation continued it is already unsure in my memory
The Duke who is talking and ssent somewhere by the shy play In front of“I’h I’m sorry”

Ch38 The Way of Settling a Great Fuss
I aht that it would be good to become wallflowers like this but, in the blink of an eye I end up being surrounded by the sahters as last ti party also!
I, who had absolutely no interest in as participating, did not know but, surely everyone checked their invitations with each other before coantly sto franticallyskill!
The daughter of the Crocus count fahter of the Colu their names from the bottoood luck,party at the castle? Viola, I have not caught sight of your appearance since then, I ondering what to do”
Was the chubby one the Crocus count’s daughter?
“The Duke has also not co this is, seely welland slender daughter of the Nasturtiuone to evening parties and the like at all Because for so
I mean, misses How to you know my movements in such a way?
“Um~, how do you know this so well?”, I ask the question
Then,
““““Because we usually participate in evening parties, of course!””””
They brightly laugh, ohohohoho~
Uh huh, a true aristocrat is like this It is outside ood way to ht Viola you are alreadyprobleht~!””””
It is un it over in sync That is to say they also do not have a fiancé They still have the desire to have ain these sort of events also serves aswomen and sons so, their antennas spread out here and there, and so various gossip probably coe of participating in evening parties has been caught
I earnestly bear the unintentional craood knowledge of it~ ohohohoho~ The Duke has been busy ork so, by no means have we been able to participate in these sort of events,” I laugh I cannot say ‘socialising is bothersome’, even if my mouth tears The ends justifies theparties, would you be available for so like a tea party?”
I returnso kirakira [twinkle]
“A tea…party?
Where?
I blankly look slightly doubtful then,
“I have heard that the Duke fanificent I hope to see it on one occasion”
Iris sweetly sardens are wonderful? Currently visitors and the like are mostly not invited
No, they are really wonderful? But it is the Devil king (Bellis)’s hty work!
“The madame from ‘Haute Couture de Fleur’ told hter of the Colu to the conversation until now I mean, did you read my mind?
‘Haute Couture de Fleur’ is the official name for the ultrluxury brand that usually makes my dresses
“Besides that also the owner of ‘Pommier’ said so”
‘Pommier’ is the super famous jewellery store that ossip of the duke household, that should be alh it is not such a exaggerated thing), originated froular tradesmen!
Because it is not likely that the house servants, who are the owners of ultra first-class skills, would talk glibly about the mansion’s matters
“Is that so? Um, I cannot decide at my own discretion so I will ask the Duke”
“Please do!”
I intend to indirectly say ‘see~you~later’ but
“……”
“……”
What is this?, the wo at ination that I feel a silent pressure here also
“……right now?”
“Yes Right now!”
Is that right? Getting the Duke’s confirht away, they wish to co, so much?
Well, it is a well known fact that the Duke is an only child so it is improbable that there would be an ulterior eman froood time at the duke household which rarely opens their doors
“Understood I will go ask the Duke and come”
Yield to the pressure of the kirakira eyes I decide to go look for the Duke in the party asse will lots of people
However without any trouble I a, beautiful, superiorly tall stature so it would be e if he did not stand out
The Duke is so so I think of not wanting to approach, yet the pressure of ‘quickly, quickly’ is pushi+ng me hard fro towards the Duke a little,
“Are you duchess Physallis?”
Soht, but……”
I look a the owner of the voice and, a young wo there Is she a noble’s daughter fro about h] You are re-ally ordinary I wonder what is good about a ordinary wo woman says with a sneer placed on her lips, while she waves the fan in her hand fuasafuasa [sound of fanning] Moreover while she is at it, she runs her gaze from the scalp of my head to the end of my feet for a just~a second!
Wait, this is it, this! Is surely an event!
Last tiht it will be the real personal experience! Thank you, soht expect froe to e of her nose prettily passes by her large double-lidded indigo eyes and, her seasonal cherry like lips are glossy and beautiful Her stature is slender and tall but, different fro that behind She is full of the aura of a person with confidence in herself
However
“Very well But I also have no inkling of what is good about hter are you?”
I infor up the truth and,
“Hm, ah……! You do not know…o eyes open al out Hm? Are you such a celebrity?
“Yes, sorry It isyou? Or have I h I think this is rude, the other person also had a rudeso I will not be reserved!
“I ahter, Verbena”
She closes her fan that she has been gracefully fanning until just a few o bachin [whack] and scowls at reeted the children from here but, this person…excuse ave our greetings soo……! You two came while I was not there for a moment!”
“Well, was it like that? That was ih prided woood about such a child?”
She says with a ahteous words!! Opposite to Verbena’s threatening aura, I a in excite You could directly ask the Duke? If you like I will accompany you”
“Huh?!”
“After all even if the Duke’s feelings are asked by me, how else are you supposed to know?”
Verbena looks like a deer in the headlights Her beauty is spoiled Did she think I would even cry? It is not likely I arasps her fan tre at all
“You, that’s enoug……”
In the instant the insult is part-way said with a low voice like soround,
“Ooh What are you planning to do tothis is the Duke who has softly entered between Verbena and I
“Oh, Duke”
“Cercis!!”
Mine and Verbena’s voices accidentally overlap
“Vi- What was said by Verbena?”
The Duke turns just his head tomy back,
“Yes She asked why you, Duke, chose ood about someone like me”
I frankly tell him
Whereupon Verbena who is startled by ? O, ohohohohoho!”
Although beautiful face stiffens she laughs and tries to lie
“Is that so? Verbena?”
“……”
Maybe thinking that it will be hard to cover up her lie, Verbena silently hangs her head in sha, I will talk about as ives a broad smile
