CHAPTER 38

“You’re going back tomorrow?”

Chavolti visited the townhouse with Sophia, perhaps because he heard that she was going back to Sutmar.

“Is there any reason to stay in the capital?”

“It’s been half a year since you were here, so it’d be nice if you stayed a little longer.”

Sophia lightly grabbed Agnes’ hand with a sad face.

“It’s okay.
I met my mother not too long ago and said hello.
Since I’m done with my work.
I’m going back now.”

“But still.”

Chavolti didn’t speak openly, but he seemed to be disappointed.

Even if he speaks bluntly, everyone knows that he cares about Agnes terribly.

Agnes knew that.

“I’ll write you a letter.”

“Oh, my.
What do you mean by letter? You sent me just one letter after getting married.”

He tilted his body and pouted his mouth.

“I’ll send you once a month.”

Only then did Chavolti look straight at Agnes.

“Send me two.”

“What? You want me to write two letters a month?”

Agnes frowned hard.

“Do you think I don’t know you? Even if you write a letter, you won’t write at least ten lines, right? So, send me two.”

“Oh, I can’t do it.
My arms will hurt.”

The siblings quarreled over useless things.

This has always happened before, so Sophia stepped up and mediated between the two.

“Well, once a month.
Instead, let’s write at least ten lines.”

Agnes nodded her head in disarray.

“As expected of Sophia.
How would I have lived without you?”

“Oh my, why would you ask that? Of course, you couldn’t have lived.”

Chavolti kissed Sophia on the cheek very naturally.
Sophia burst into laughter as if ticklish.

Agnes stared at the couple instead of saying that her eyes were sore as usual.

‘Is kissing happier than hugging?’

Sometimes hugging Laslo felt pretty good, but I’m curious about something else.

Looking back, it wasn’t bad to spend the night with him in the past.

No, it was actually pretty good.  It makes me wonder if people are into night games because of this.

“Madam.”

Then the maid quietly approached and whispered in Agnes’ ear.

“Really? Tell her I’ll be there soon.”

“Where are you going?”

“The guest is here.
I saw your face before going down west, so stop and go.”

Then Chavolti grumbled about his sister’s coldness.

Sophia said goodbye with tears in her eyes.

Agnes left her seat with a light kiss on both cheeks.

“Hello, Duchess.”

Erica bowed politely with a soft smile.

“Have a seat.”

As soon as Erica sat down, she took the bird statue from her bag and put it in front of Agnes.

“Here you go.”

“Well done.
I’ll send the documents separately for the Elemer case.”

“Thank you, Duchess.”

“But you don’t even ask me what this is.
It might be beneficial or harmful to your cousin.”

“I met Roland this morning, and his neck is still intact.”

Erica lifted the teacup with her eyes down.
Agnes smiled without even realizing it.

I don’t know why harsh words with a calm face are so funny.

“What’s your plan?”

“Plans?”

“You said you wanted to be a marquis”.

“First of all, I have to catch my father’s eye.
Elemer will be the first stepping stone.”

“What about Sir Milan?”

“I don’t know.”

Erica took a sip of tea and put the cup down.

“I’m thinking about it.”

“Will you kick him out?”

When Agnes asked, Erica only turned around.

“Hmm.
No matter how you look at it, you’re at a disadvantage.”

Erica listened to Agnes without answering back.

“Your established power is not enough, and you’re still young and a woman at that.
There are many obstacles in inheriting the marquis.”

“That’s right.”

Erica easily affirmed.

Agnes said, searching through the documents she had placed next to her.

“Sir Milan.
He has a splendid career as a womanizer.”

“It’s my brother’s noble hobby to use a shiny mug to change women.”

Erica crossed her legs and laughed at her brother.

Looking at the data on Milan Kiske, it seems fair to say that Erica is sarcastic to him.

“He’s not even married, but he already has three illegitimate babies.”

Of course, the child’s mother was all different.

“That’s not all.”

“Then?”

“There are only three children born, but there are quite a few babies whose father used his hands to get rid of them.”

“That’s terrible.”

Agnes frowned a lot.

In Nirseg, an illegitimate child is worse than nothing.

It is rarely fully recognized because it is regarded as a product of injustice.

“He’s conduct is so inappropriate, yet they want him to be the successor?”

“Oh my.”

Erica opened her eyes wide and laughed.

“What’s the problem with him? He’s the eldest son and a man.”

“Hmm.”

“All he can do is play tricks and abandon women using his face and status, but it’s enough to be a successor.”

Erica sipped the tea.
Agnes did not hesitate more.

“Look at this.”

She handed over the pre-prepared documents to Erica.

“What is this?”

“Businesses that Milan Kiske had touched.”

“That’s…”

Eric took the documents and checked what was inside.

“Is this all true?”

“It’s a spectacle.
It was worth seeing that he used the saved money for gambling.”

“Ha!”

Erica, who looked over the documents to the end, laughed in vain.

“He was fooling our parents.”

“I guess you didn’t know based on your reaction.”

“Yes.
My parents probably didn’t know because I also don’t know.”

The hand that picked up the document was full of strength.
The face was full of contempt.

“Duchess.
The reason why you showed me this is because…”

“This is still only circumstantial evidence.
You know well that’s not enough to bring him down.”

“Yes.”

Erica replied more politely than ever.

“I’ll send you the data when I get more solid evidence of all the things he did.”

“Thank you, but I have a deep question about your overflowing goodwill.
Duchess.”

“Don’t be scared.
You just have to pay back what you received.”

“That sounds scarier.”

Erica muttered.

“I like you.”

“Because I’m young and pretty?”

Agnes burst into laughter again at the shameless response.

“Because you’re honest and bold”.

“Thank you.”

Erica took it as a compliment, instead of being humble, she thanked me.

“So, I’m going to help you get the marquis.”

“What should I do then?”

Erica asked quickly.

“You can help me with what I’m trying to do.
I want you to support me and follow me carefully.”

Unlike Roland, who she was holding the leash on, Erika should not hear the word usurpation out of her mouth right away.

At least not yet.

I intend to hide it until I completely gain her trust.

Agnes smiled as sweet as honey.

“That’s all I want.”

Erica forgot to breathe and looked at Agnes.

Many thoughts crossed by.
But there is only one conclusion.

“I’ll follow the words of the duchess.”

“That’s a good idea.”

Agnes personally saw Erica off.

When she returned after sending her, the servant put a letter in a silver tray and brought it.

“Hmm? Why aren’t there any seal?”

“It’s a letter from an errand boy.”

“An errand boy?”

I tore the envelope with a letter knife and took out the letter inside.
A short sentence was written.

All right, then.

The hand holding the letter tensed.  Agnes’ eyes shone brighter than ever.

Chap 4.
Resolution.

“Princess, do you have something to say?”

They were crossing the field on a horse.
Laslo turned his head as he looked at me.

“Huh? No.”

“You’ve been staring at my face for a while.”

In fact, I was looking at his lips, not the face.

Chavolti’s kiss with Sophia was memorable and sometimes came to mind.

However, his face still turns red with just a hug, making it awkward, so it is clear that he will run away if she kisses him.

I was thinking about how to get a kiss from him, but someone approached me.

“That’s amazing.”

“What?”

When she heard his voice, Agnes’ face turned cold at once.

“The princess is several times more beautiful than the flowers blooming here.”

“……”

“Oh, princess.
Don’t turn your head that way.
Flowers wither at the beauty of the princess.”

Agnes got goosebumps at the moment.

“Where did you learn that?”

“Do you have to learn it to know? It’s an admiration from my heart.”

Shortly after leaving the capital, I met Eugene in the middle of the road.

He said this in a fairly urgent tone.

– You forgot something, Princess.

– What is it?

– You forgot to tell me to come with you.

-………….

– Don’t worry.
I ran right away as soon as I heard that the princess was leaving.
