"Right. For example, what you want to keep secret. Even if it's a request that people can't tell you, you know someone who can take it on."

"It depends on your favor. If you ask for someone as beautiful as you, I'm sure they won't say no."

No, because it's fine to be beautiful or something like that.

What I want to ask is can or can't you?

Will you help me with the kidnapping or not?

Oh, but he (...) et al. (...), you know someone who feels like that?

"If you have something to (only) do, most of the time, you will undertake it?

"Right. It will depend on the negotiation, but I'll take care of that."

"Sort of nice!

I don't know how much a bad guy's salary is and how much special allowance he needs for kidnapping. But just taking Sophia doesn't do any harm. I know it's not that expensive, but let's talk to him first and get a quote. They might reject it, and if it's too expensive to do so, you can cancel it.

Sarah next door has a decent look. I can't seem to swallow the story, and I think it's good.

Afterwards it began with everyday stories, such as popular plays and popular treats. He is indispensable for a fun topic and a good speaker. Unexpectedly drawn, and so forgetful of the passage of time.

Tart sent us back to the carriage. [M] Looks like I'm kind enough to ask you to be kind to the end after a treat.

When he left, he handed me a note with his name and contact address. If you have business, contact me here. I don't have to see her anyway, so even this one will help me a lot. Mr. Tart, what a sweet face.

On my return carriage I held the paper I had received to my chest with both hands. The eyes of a samurai who looks at me like she's frightened decides not to care for the time being. 'Cause this is an important lifeline to get to the outside. I need to keep it tight and not lose it.

Speaking of which, Veronica in Lanobe also had collaborators. She had instructed her collaborators to arrange for all sorts of villains and vices.

The name didn't come up, but someone very unsuspecting to contact with the Villain Lady...... probably the same nobleman. Maybe he's the one.

Mr. Tart, you did it! I'll make sure he does his best from now on.

As a result, communication between me and Mr. Tart - Filbert has begun. Don't tell anyone in the house, of course. With his permission not to find out, he is ostensibly in touch with Sarah the Samurai.

That Sarah, she seems suspicious of my affair, but not at all. Raphael and I were originally engaged only in form, and they will soon be discarded, so there is no problem. If there is, only the jilds we will meet in the future. He'll forgive you too, won't he?

Phil just writes the words of love and sweet complaints on his own, so of course he's through. If you were responding one way or another to the Social Dictionary, it wouldn't matter how much time you have. Paper and ink will be wasted, so all I write about is administrative content such as plans and necessary expenses.

In exchanging letters several times, they finally gave up over there, and they started writing and sending me just what I needed. Thanks to you, we can save waste, and it looks like evil will soon be done.

"Still, you're so dull. The other villain warrants were doing a lot of bad things. Lanobe and I are completely different in real life. I can't believe it takes more than six months just to plan a kidnapping..."

"Ma'am, did you say something? You can use my name, but don't forget that you're engaged to another person!

Sarah is puffy and angry.

I'm glad you didn't have to ask what it was about.

She's a Raphael snoring, so she doesn't feel comfortable that I'm communicating with other men. I've known Raphael since he was a little girl, so I guess he thinks he's cute.

Don't worry, there are others in his true opponents. It's my evil. If you succeed, the distance between him and Sophia approaches. Almost there, so I want you to wait and see.

That Raphael, he still regularly summons me to Tengu. I have to get dressed today and attend the tea party.

"Not at all, if a servant is absurd to the prince's ass..."

As relaxing as enjoying tea, I want to stay home and pack the details of my kidnapping plan. There's not much time left for me...

Arriving in Tenguo, I was led to a room. It is a unified space with elegant furniture with a white tone, with notes of tea.

"Hey Veronica, I've been waiting for you. Come here?

He slaps next to himself as usual.

Looks like a lot of the ladies are flocking to him today. It's just that lately, things are getting a little different on their own.

"Dear Veronica, I've been waiting for you! Go ahead."

"I brought a new baked treat for a souvenir. I hope it fits your mouth."

"The dress of the day is wonderful, too. A simple outfit adds to the beauty of rejection."

I am polite like this, so of course I won't forget your affection (yes).

"Thank you. You're very nice, too."

Lady Villain Warrant doesn't humble herself. I think the blue dress suits me myself, and if you don't get in my way, that's fine. Broad-minded, I'm watering you down about the past.

Rafael publicly stated that I was the only one dancing on the day of his social debut and actually did just that. Looks like a lot of the ladies changed their minds after seeing him like that.

That is, you better take me in on your side than turn me on your enemies. I guess I decided that it would be better not to defy, but to gain later. The truth is, there's nothing I can do about it...

If I get caught, I don't bully Sophia, and I want you to get along if you can.

Because the prince treats me like a real fiancée, I feel like I'm starting to be seen favorably even within Tenmiya. Raphael's secretaries and escorts have become familiar with each other, and he exchanges words easily. I started putting them in most places, and wherever they are, they don't suspect me.

As a matter of fact, even on the day of the divorce, I had to work a great deal of evil. But at this rate, even if you make suspicious moves, you won't be able to see them. Ironically, thanks to the Prince, we can say that we are well prepared for next year's climax.

At present, though, there's only one thing I'm having trouble with.

"Veronica, what are you thinking with your worried face? Something you can't tell me?

"No, nothing."

It's a good idea, Raphael, but the problem lies ahead.

"Yes, yes. I tried to make tarts that reduced sweetness for your taste. What do you think?

The prince brought the petite tart from his hand to my mouth. It sits adjacent to the bench, making it a perfect shape to stick together. I refuse as much as I want when I'm alone, but my gaze hurts as I would expect around me.

Hands on his knees were held in one of his hands at some point. You can turn your back, but that makes me suspect you're not close.

My fiancée's acting tough, too. Sounds like fun Raphael will be recommending another treat even if he refuses. Should I not say no poorly because I will snuggle around more often for that matter?

Having made up my mind, I mouthed a small tart for each of Raphael's fingers.
