A family conversation

“Mr. Takumi thinks so too.. Still, do you really think it will be alright?”

“In the previous conversation, Ms. Anne would have become strongly aware of the duke’s family. And so unlike before, she would see you as someone to follow, instead of resisting. I think she will listen and figure out how to make the most of your advice...”

“Hmm, I see.”

She wasn’t terribly stupid, probably.

It had been her that made suggestions to Count Barsler, after all.

She was just thinking in the wrong direction.

And so I thought that she would realize that instead of just seeing the duke as a rival, she might want to follow his example.

Well, I had practically told her to do that.

“Well, I suppose it is best to keep her with me after all ...Still, it will be difficult...”

“But you already raised Ms. Claire and Tilura. And while Tilura is still childish, Ms. Claire has been brought up to be the ideal sort of woman.”

“Mr. Takumi’s ideal woman...”

“...Really? Well, Claire may as well have been raised by the servants in the main house. After my wife died... Well, I tried to do my duty as a father...but I am not sure if I succeeded. Though, perhaps I shouldn’t say such things in front of Claire. After all, she escaped the main house in order to avoid the talk of marriage...”

Ms. Claire looked like she blushed for a moment, but it was probably just the firelight.

“Huh? Oh...yes.”

While I didn’t know the details, I suppose things had been awkward with his daughters after his wife died.

And then there was the matter of arranged marriages. And they had drifted apart.

But in spite of such complications, Ms. Claire had turned out alright. And so it was all good in the end.

The way Mr. Ekenhart felt apologetic towards Ms. Claire, kind of reminded me about how I felt towards Leo, for not being able to spend much time with her.

After that, Mr. Ekenhart looked at his daughter and muttered what was on his mind.

In contrast, Ms. Claire’s expression becomes troubled or somewhat sullen.

Mr. Ekenhart seemed like he wanted me to agree with him, and so I nodded.

I left Ms. Anne to Mr. Ekenhart “I am quite sure that the people already trust you enough.” “Well, if you say so, Mr. Takumi. Your opinion is worth trusting. Isn’t that right, Claire?” “Don’t bring me into it. But well, Mr. Takumi does have a different way of viewing...

I asked about Sebastian’s past “Thankfully, the duke and his family do not care much when it comes to small mistakes of the servants. Of course, there are times when they are strict as well...” Well, that was obvious. But instead of just berating someone angrily, understanding why it happened...

I asked about the man called Deam I waited for a moment and observed Mark, who seemed to have different things going on in his head. He finally understood that his actions had been against the duke’s house. Well, he would have likely not done such a reckless thing if...
