Chapter 107

A Plan (5)

“When the hell are you going to do it?! How long do I have to hide in this house?!”

Within a few days of being in the house of Viscount Lambert, Matthias began to scream like this. Kernan was annoyed at being shouted at, but his manner was flippant.

“It hasn’t been a few days since the ball ended, has it? It’s because we’re waiting for the right time to make a move, so hold on to your worries.”

“I believe in you, but my patience is limited! How long should I be stuck in this small mansion?”

He wanted to go to the club he always entered and drink with a woman. Matthias could call a woman into the mansion if he wanted, but it would be difficult later if he attracted too much attention.

Kernan suppressed his temper, thinking he had made a useless habit. He loved his foolish and imprudent prey, but it was difficult for him to hold himself back.

“… Please be patient. Isn’t it a big deal?”

It was a cruel thing to betray his sister, but from Kernan’s point of view, the cruelty was simply interesting.

The ultimate benefit he was going to get from that was huge.

When Kernan continued, Matthias frowned and closed his mouth.

“The wait won’t be too long. So…”

When told to wait again, Matthias pushed Kernan’s shoulder and left. He was about to give instructions to get rid of all alcohol in the house, as he might drink and mess with the maids.

That disgusting guy!

“Miss, we’ve come this far again!”

Pina, who had sent an errand with Lancelot, had long returned safely. What happened in the meantime, Lancelot wanted to talk to Pina, but Pina kept ignoring him.

Pina was now fully adapted to the work of a prospective crown princess. In the hand of the maid who came in with Pina, there was a tray piled up with invitations.

It was an invitation from the ladies, as well as the young lovers of the high aristocracy.

Rowena was now meeting the nobles little by little. If she became a crown princess, she would hold a meeting and invite them, but she was still a fiancée.

It was highly likely that she, who was still the fiancée of the crown prince, would be seen as overstepping to invite people to the royal castle. That’s why she was only accepting people’s invitations.

“I left out the invitations from those who mentioned it. The invitations of the overlapping people are sorted here, and the rest.”

Rowena did not attend the rest of the group more than once, except for some of the ladies she thought were important. Once again, it was a tricky choice.

Rowena had one body, but many wanted to visit her. There was no other princess in the Imperial family.

She was about to become a powerful person, so there was no need to please or curry favor with everyone. It was enough to show proper value.

It was only her first time. Rowena was doing pretty well, even though she was just starting.

Rowena picked out the invitation easily because there was something planned.

“…I just need to reply to these three first. Keep the rest.”

“All right, My Lady!”

Her title was ambiguous as Your Highness, or Lady, but it was polite. Already, the royal palace was in the midst of preparations for the wedding of the crown prince and Rowena.

As the engagement ceremony was sloppy, the atmosphere was that the wedding would be grand. She would focus on elegance rather than glamour.

“Aren’t you going to look at the ceremony today?”

Rowena shook her head at the maid’s careful question. She had given all the necessary instructions. She didn’t have to visit often except to double-check a few weeks later.

Something worried her more than that.

“Have you heard anything about my brother, Theo?”

“There is no news other than that he was taken to the Marquis of Rasmine. Still, he seems to be getting better, so don’t worry too much.”

A few days prior, Cecil granted permission to the Count of Adelia to stay in a mansion owned by the Imperial Palace. Paul seemed dissatisfied because it was not in the form of giving a mansion, but he could not have revealed it because he was afraid of Cecil.

It was the Marquis of Rasmine who invited Paul. The former Marquis of Rasmine had been ill for a long time, so the Marquis of Rasmine had a fairly capable healer.

“It is rumored that the Lady of Rasmine is taking care of Theo with all her heart.”

According to the words heard, Marquis Rasmine seemed to be targeting Theo as his son-in-law.

I’m glad Theo’s better, but…

How dare you drag a sick man around!

In her opinion, she wanted to bring Theo to the Imperial Palace, but she couldn’t because she already had Louis.

Louis was a minor, even if he was supposed to protect himself.

I think I should go to Marquis Rasmine…
