Translator: Darling | Editor: Coming soon…

I wonder what happened with Lord Edward?

If Yuki is refusing to tell me about what’s going on, then surely it has something to do with him.

We live on the outskirts of a foreign kingdom, so it’s not like we get any news about Hazrat. So, I wouldn’t know if anything happened to Lord Edward.

Even if he started acting cold towards me and ended up breaking off our marriage, I still can’t help but be in love with him.

I have always loved him out of my own will. It was never because it was a path laid out for me or anything like that.

“Yuki, no matter what you tell me, I promise that I will accept it. So please, just tell me.”

I gently tap on her door while calling out to her.

In doing so, I could hear a faint tearful voice coming from Yuki.

“I’m sorry, Rachel… I… Makoto… Edward… Why… Just why did this….”

What came after were unintelligible words as she was crying; I couldn’t make out what she was saying.

But I did understand that it had something to do with Lord Edward as well as Makoto.

Is it possible? Are they getting married…?

My thoughts started running wild.

But if it were proceeding just like in my dreams, then Makoto shouldn’t be able to get married to Lord Edward.

Though I don’t really understand why that’s the case.

If it were Yuki and Lord Edward, they would be able to get married, but Yuki is right here right now.

Did Makoto arrange a marriage between Yuki and Lord Edward, perhaps?

No, no, no. It doesn’t necessarily have anything to do with marriage.

Then perhaps he fell ill?

But if that were the case, I’m not entirely sure why Makoto is involved.

I don’t think it’s possible, but did Makoto potentially poison Lord Edward… or something?

But, but, Makoto is a good person. There’s no way Makoto would do something like that.

The more I think about this situation, the worse my thoughts were getting.

“Ugh…”

Perhaps it was because I was being negative, but suddenly I felt pain around my stomach.

But it suddenly disappeared.

I wonder if this is the child’s way of saying “don’t be so negative!”

I gently rub my swelled stomach and say “it’s all right.”

Kuro and Shiro came in and started rubbing against me.

It seemed like they were both worried too.

The two cats in front of Yuki’s room cries out, “meow.”

In doing so, Kuro and Shiro were enveloped by a bright light and disappeared.

“…. Kuro? Shiro?”
