Act Gracefully As A Villainous Lady

117 Early warning signs of turbulence (2)

"Miss Melia Rose, I've been looking for you. It's terrible to leave me behind."

This is the first time I've seen you today. Merriah Rose managed to swallow the word…

It's depressing to be stuck around, but Bertram came to a good place.

Let's stick with his play here.

"Well, Master Bertram! Sorry, I was just looking for you, too. It's good to see you like this."

With a friendly smile, Melia Rose turned to Bertram.

From the side, I'm sure, we'll look intimate.

"Whoa, whoa, this is... let's just say the old man disperses before the horse kicks him"

As Merriah Rose aimed, Sir Augustus dispersed with a meaningful grin.

Phew, exhale, and Melia Rose takes a step away from Bertram.

"Thank you, sub-shield. Thank you."

"What's that saying? The main shield, by the way."

It's Willem.

"I thought so."

Man, I shrugged my shoulder. Look at Bertram, Melia Rose chuckles.

"... So, what are you doing here?

"What the hell. I helped you because you're in trouble, and it's terrible."

"Well, it doesn't change the situation that I'm in trouble. Somewhere, with a dance partner without difficulty…"

That's about it, and Merriam Rose realized it.

The first time you dance, you won't have any trouble "tough opponents" - aren't you right in front of them?

"That was just great. Can you dance with me for one song?

Bertram circled his eyes as surprised when Merriah Rose spoke so.

"What, are you seriously telling me? What kind of wind is that?"

"At least one song has to dance with someone, you can't show it around." What is this guy doing here at the ball? 'It feels like it. So I was looking for someone who wouldn't be a pain in the ass if I danced. "

Bertram smiled bitterly as Merriam Rose explained the situation.

So you nominated me.

"Right? Not me and you."

I asked him to be sweet, but Bertram looked sinister.

Most opponents are quick to admit if Merriah Rose asks like this... that's a hundred battle smelling colored men. It doesn't seem to be a glimmer.

"I don't mind dancing with you in itself... but I'm the one who'll be irrationally cleaned up by Willem later"

"Oh, if there's a good reason, Willem will know."

"No, you're licking those glasses. He looks so refreshed, there's something strange about him."

"I wonder..."

I didn't really feel Bertram's words well for Melia Rose.

Does Bertram know Willem, who does not know Merriah Rose?

Thinking about it, I regret it a little.

"Well, but... if you're in that much trouble, I'll deal with you. If you get caught up in some weird guy, that's what Willem's gonna be rough about. I'll sacrifice my life."

Mary Rose lay her own hands on the hand offered by Bertram in such a way that she had no choice but to.

"But what if me and you get along with the rumors?"

"How rotten is a girl to be rumored to be with you. It's no big deal where I was added alone."

When he laughed and told him so, Bertram looked away at first.

Bertram makes it his routine to dictate women. It's more like when you meet a woman, you think it's rude if you don't dictate.

A significant number of women - commonly known as "Bertram's Woman" - are present only among those entering and leaving this royal palace who are not spoken to by him.

Even if Meliá Rose joins one of them now, she will flush that the surroundings are the usual.

"Yes, yes, will you do as the noble princess says today?"

"Hehe, please, sub-shield"

As Meliá Rose and Bertram take together and advance into the center of the hall, a painful gaze pierces them from their surroundings.

"Look, Willem looks amazing and looks at me. Shit, I'm gonna cry."

"It's an illusion of the eye. Be patient."

There is no ex-girlfriend or child for him to escape here.

While ensuring Bertram does not escape, Merriah Rose glances toward Willem.

Beside Prince Ulysses and Lynette, he refrains as an escort knight...... frighteningly, he was faceless.

But as soon as I saw the expression, I felt like something cold ran on my spine for some reason.

- It's my fault. Am I right...?

When this ball is over, let's start by explaining the situation to Willem.

Melia Rose quietly swore so.

The song slowly begins, and Merriah Rose takes Bertram's hand and steps softly.

Until the dance began, Bertram whined a scathing cry, but that's just the only prince you can name as a colored man.

Reed's arm is brilliant.

As the distance between them approached, Bertram whispered with a smile.

"... hey. What were you talking to that old man earlier?

"Old man... excuse me. He's an assistant prime minister."

"He said he knew. But the old man's an old man."

"You..."

In an obnoxious language, Merriam Rose managed to catch a smile that was going to catch her.

From the side, beautiful men and women who smile and are interested in dancing.

You wouldn't even think your surroundings were talking about this nonsense.

"Nothing, I haven't seen you in a long time, so you just spoke to me. Well, if you hadn't come, you might have been dancing with him."

"Seriously. He doesn't look good in that serene look, and the relationship is flashy."

"Eh..."

That's my first ear.

I didn't know Sir Augustus, like that animal harmless sheep, had such a back face......

"... is that true?

"Well. But he's hiding it, and very few of them know it. You don't talk outside, do you? Your father won't dismiss you, which means you're quite capable."

"Well... my personal life and my ability to perform my duties is a different story..."

No matter how disruptive his personal life is, I wonder if he has the talent to just overturn it.

I don't feel good about it as Meliá Rose, but I'm also not in a position to stand out and rebuff him.

In the future, we should pretend not to know.

"You be careful, too. I don't think that old man who's good at self-preservation would imitate his boss's daughter."

"... right. I'll be careful, just in case."

I'd like to think that his earlier invitation to Mary Rose to dance was just a social dictionary......

But from now on, I'm going to change my eyes on him.

Merriah Rose thanked Bertram for his advice just a little bit.

Eventually the song ends and Melia Rose laughs and says thank you to Bertram.

"Phew, thanks for hanging out with me. Now you've done your duty."

"That's good to hear. What are we gonna do now?

"Even if I stay here any longer, I'll be in trouble if they ask me out again... and I'm going to say hello and go home tonight"

"Then I'll send you."

"Well, that's all right."

"Fine, fine. In case anything happens on my way home, I figured I'd be the one Willem could clean up. Let me earn a score here."

Willem might have been that short tempered...... Mary Rose conceived, but I do feel Willem was strong enough to do it against Bertram.

From time to time, Merriah Rose envied the cheap relationship just a little bit.

"Heh heh, let me ask you a favor"

"As you say, princess."

Meliárose chuckled at Bertram, who bowed with her hands on her chest like she had conceived.
