"I don't. This is the first time I've been up to the castle. Usually, as Lili knows, I just go to an orphanage... and I can't believe I get a chance to see you..."

"I'm sure you don't."

Convinced.

Chloe frowned and said with a bitter face.

"After all, I thought I was waiting for someone else, and I tried to pass by, and they talked to me for some reason. I don't know what to do anymore."

What bad luck, such as being suddenly spoken to by a second prince when even he says he's a debutant and nervous.

I would have naturally and arrogantly accepted that before, but I already know that's a stupid act, and there's no way I can honestly Chloe. You wouldn't even think of it first.

I think I would take a passive way of... hanging out to the point where the corners don't stand and letting me go home to the mansion saying I'm not feeling well in the right place.

You can't be rude to the second prince, and he's involved in the face of my father. With that in mind, we can't do the right thing.

"... that was tough."

From the bottom of my heart, Chloe nodded in the face, too.

"Really. I didn't even live much longer. Because Lili was so happy to be here."

She held both hands cuddly and smiled with heartfelt joy.

I'm glad that I'm here is helping Chloe. I think so, and I shake her hand back, too.

Talking to both of us, Al, who was talking to Prince Wilfred, looked back and told me.

"I need to talk to my brother a little more, so you should come say hello to Victor right now. He seems to be alone now."

Following Al's gaze, he did have a brother nearby. There is no one on the side. My brother, seemingly aware of this one, when he and I met each other, laughed, though a little.

Put your gaze back on Al. He turned a chilling eye to Chloe and has been crying to me, "You should take her with you, too".

I nodded, realizing that it was a consideration to distance myself from Prince Wilfred for just a moment.

"Right...... right. I will. Chloe, you should come with me. You must be bored to be alone.

"Oh, but... are you okay? I don't know Lili's brother."

I don't want to be left here alone. But I can't even follow you.

Chloe's expression said that very plainly. And I say with a smile.

"Fine. Brother Victor knows I have a friend named you. I'd rather not introduce you. My brother will scold me later."

"Oh, yeah... then"

Hearing my words, Chloe snorts, although it is nasty. I told Al and Prince Wilfred that I would be out of my seat for a while.

Al smiled and said, "Go away," but Prince Wilfred didn't look very good, let's just say for granted.

"Miss Liz is my older brother's fiancée, so I think you should like it....... but Miss Chloe. Wasn't your partner today me?

"Oh, the..."

That's a bad way to put it.

Prince Wilfred tried to pack more into Chloe that I couldn't tell you back. Al blames it.

"Will, it's ugly. You don't deserve to blame Miss Carlisle for forcing me to take the escort role. Lili, take her with you."

"Huh! Brother!

"You have to learn more about women's escorts. You can't do anything today. As my brother, I guess I'm disqualified. No matter how well you stand and behave, then I can't admit this to you"

……

Coldly pointed out by Al, Prince Wilfred silenced. Al is turning his gaze on me to go fast. And I nodded and shook Chloe's hand.

"I'm coming."

Take her and head to her brother.

Chloe, pulled by me, asked me how she couldn't hide the confusion.

"Hey, hey. You sure you could have come this way?

"Of course. Chloe, you didn't want to be there like that, did you?

"That's right...... but. But ignoring His Highness Wilfred's intentions, I can't believe..."

"You said Al was good. It's okay."

It may be a short time, but he gave me a chance to get away from Prince Wilfred. I want to calm Chloe down a little while now.

I thought so, and when I forgive Chloe, she looked at me and said with envy.

"... thanks. But I've never seen you two lined up before, but Your Highness Alan and Lili look great. Good. Just the interaction just now has conveyed that His Highness Alan cares about Lili."

"What are you talking about all of a sudden?

Why did they say that?

Chloe said she would tilt her neck if she didn't know.

"Because His Highness Alan cared about me because I'm a friend of Lili's, right? You should be able to leave me alone just as a countess, but this is how you help me. I'm sure he wanted to show Lili what he looked like. Good for you, Lili. Your Highness really loves you. It's lovely."

"Oh, yeah!?"

I didn't think they'd say that.

I said to Chloe, as I wandered off.

"Oh, um... Al is that... he's so sweet... not that he's special now either..."

Al is nice to everyone. I thought so, I denied it, but Chloe's face was laughing.

"Hmm. I know that's true, but I think there's something about you definitely moving for Lili. Because, Your Highness, what you've been looking at all this time about Lili. Hehe, Lili, you're engaged to a nice guy. It was a little tight to be honest, but I'm really glad I could make sure you had a happy engagement"

"... thanks"

I'm glad my friend complimented me on someone important. It seems to warm my heart.

To thank Chloe,

"What are you talking about? I'm the one who was helped by the two of you. It's up to me to thank you. Thank you, Lili."

And he gave me a very pretty smile back.
