The Reborn Lady is Loved by her Foster Brother: The Scariest Villain

p> 

Ortansia did not just spend her time idly in the Ducal territory.
In addition to all kinds of ladylike education, she also learnt about the administration of the estate so that she could help her father and brother in their work.

 

“Well, that's encouraging.”

 

In contrast to her father, who smiled at her, Gérard never changed his stony expression.

 

“Hey.”

 

　That evening, when Ortansia finished her work and was walking down the corridor to return to her room, Gérard was waiting for her with his back against the wall.

 

'Hmmm… I used to be so scared and my heart would stop whenever I saw Oniisama like this'

 

While immersed in old memories, Ortansia approached her brother without fear.

 

“Is something wrong, Brother?”

 

“I need to talk to you.”

 

“Hmm, then I want to walk in the garden with Oniisama for the first time in a long time.”

 

When she said this with a smile, Gerard's eyes widened in surprise.But immediately, he nodded slightly.

 

“Okay.”

 

Gerard came up to Ortansia.
Not forgetting her Lady etiquette lesson she had learned from Annabelle, Ortansia held out her hand to be escorted by him, but…

 

“Uh-hyah!”

 

Gérard picked up Ortansia as if she were a little girl.

 

“Oh, Oniisama! I'm not that young anymore!”

 

“There's no problem.”

 

“It's a problem…”

 

Ortansia's protests were in vain, and Gerard walked away with Ortansia in his arms.

 

“Don't be violent, or you'll fall.”

 

“Hmmn…”

 

Being told so calmly, Ortansia meekly relaxed her body and leaned back against Gerard.

 

'After all, Oniisama is quite strange…'

 

He learned many things at the Academy of Nobility and should have general common sense, but she couldn't help feeling that he is still somewhat missing a screw somewhere.

 

'Well, maybe that's one of the good things about Onii-sama…'

 

While she was still in her thoughts, she realized that they had arrived at the  garden.
