Since I’ve Reincarnated as the Villainess’ Father, I’ll Shower My Wife and Daughter in Love
52 Party with the Chancellor
"No, I didn't think you could invite the Duke of Fall to our house like this."
It was the Duke of Green, the prime minister of this country, who said so with a smile that made his greed clear. The place is the Duke of Green's house. I've been here lately, getting information that the Duke of Green has a dinner party at his home, as he does every day.
Originally I didn't really like this hand party so I tried not to get invited out except when I really needed it, but this time I came because I needed it. Sasha and Laurier didn't bring him in this time. I didn't want the two of you to come to this place, and Sasha prioritized her health, and Laurier couldn't get her out to the party at night yet, so I could have one.
"We appreciate your invitation. Duke of Green. I envy you, as always, in a fine mansion."
Wasting a lot of money, but praising him so much, the Duke of Green said happily if he cared.
"Ha, you're always welcome to be Duke of Fall. By the way, don't you have a wife and daughter today?
"Yeah, because my wife wasn't feeling well. My daughter left it with my wife."
"Well, if you're the daughter of the Duke of Fall, you must be smart. I'd like you to take an apprenticeship for my foolishness."
Treat your own child like a fool. I almost ate my teeth by accident, but I smiled.
"Sure, your son would have been close to his age with my daughter. Come visit me at my house next time, if you like."
"That's a thankful offer... but speaking of which, did your daughter, the Duke of Fall, decide on a fiancée?
The Duke of Green, who is turning a glance of girallies and greed. Probably wondered if Laurier was engaged to Master Sellew. The House of the Duke of Green certainly has only one son and his wife is dead and he has another child with his mistress, so as Duke of Green, he should want to be engaged to a house that is likely to gain as much as he can. My house is different in character in the same Duke house, so I know what it's like to aim for Laurier... but I don't like just sending Laurier to this guy. I can assure you that Laurier will definitely be unhappy.
I said it with a bitter smile.
"Actually, it hasn't. I wish I had a good person."
"Is that so?"
I even get disgusted with the nigga and the laughing Duke of Green for a moment. Strange... even though any opponent doesn't really know that kind of emotion, this guy only feels physiologically impossible from the start.
There's something about parents who just make their children unhappy, even if they're not their own. Not on top of that, because this guy seems to only see his kids as tools.
"Speaking of which, do you think the Duke of Fall can make some very tasty treats? I'd love to know how to make it next time."
Then I spent a while drinking and talking to the Duke of Green and gathering information clouding my words... but I thought I'd never had such an unsavory drink before.
