The Abandoned Baroness is one of the Black Knight’s favorites

Shortly afterwards, Gilbert quit the night club with Sofia. It was Sofia who was tired, but Gilbert shook her head when she said she wanted to carry it.

But he managed to get into the Forster Marquis carriage and fell asleep with his head on Gilbert's shoulder sitting next to him. Gently re-hang the stall that is about to fall. It was my first time attending a night club, but I couldn't. Gilbert regretted and chewed his lips.

"Sofia."

Call your name to make sure you're asleep. My eyelids trembled slightly, but I don't think I can open my eyes. He sighed deeply and looked up.

The night Sofia cried she wanted to know Gilbert, Gilbert had been worried. I repeatedly asked myself if it would be good to be honest with Hans. It seemed too convenient for me.

But when I saw Baroness and Baroness Lannish's heart at the club, Gilbert was angry ─ ─ and decided. Be prepared to turn thoughts into words in order to continue to protect them on your side. Trying to get rid of the grief in the nearest place with your own hands so that you don't make a straight Sofia cry.

"I have to see His Highness first....."

Instead of telling anyone, I murmured. Gilbert belongs to the second platoon with Prince Matthias. First, we had to get investigative powers and gather information. And we'll have to go check on Baron Lannish's territory directly. That was before Congress ended. At the end of the social season, Baroness and Baroness Lannish will return to the Territory. It was too late.

The carriage slowly slows down. Looking out the window, I saw Hans standing in front of the Marquis Mansion.

Without hesitation, Gilbert picked up Sofia and got off the carriage. Hans opened his eyes slightly. Gilbert smiled bitterly once and immediately tightened his expression.

"Hans, I'm home. ─ ─ I need to talk to you. Come to my room later."

"I understand. Where's Sophia?

Hans watches Sofia. Through the front door, the maid and Carina were on the porch. Carina is worried about Sofia sleeping.

"I'm just tired and asleep. I'll take you to your room, so please get some sleep."

"... good."

Carina sighed small. Gilbert feels a little relieved to see it. Carina, who Sophia said she was a friend, was convinced she still cared about Sophia. Hans went to Gilbert's private room, and the maid captain and Carina each headed ahead to the room Sophia was using to prepare for the night club.

Gilbert also goes up the stairs to the guest room. I wonder if you heard the conversation earlier, but Sofia moved small. As she watched, her long eyelashes trembled and her dark green eyes peered.

─ ─ Master Gilbert? I.... "

Is your consciousness unclear? Your eyes are fluffy and swimming. Gilbert loosened his mouth as he thought it cute.

"You must be tired. I asked the maid captain and Carina for help, so get some rest."

"Thank you very much. ─ ─ Is this your residence?

"Oh, thank you for today."

After hearing Gilbert's reply, Sofia moved her face. Looking around, he immediately panicked.

"I'm sorry. I'm going down, I can walk by myself...!

"─ ─ It's already in front of the room."

Gilbert smiled bitterly. Sophia looks up at Gilbert without opening the door. He seems hesitant about something.

"What's wrong?

"I wonder if my uncle and aunt are doing anything wrong. You saw Gilbert, didn't you?

Gilbert's chest hurt when Sofia lay down her eyes spicy. I think I was such an emotional person, but I'm not uncomfortable. Gilbert gently touched Sofia's cheek with his right hand. Warm heat is transmitted with a soft feel.

"─ ─ Rest today. Either way, I can't move without talking to His Highness."

Gilbert is supposed to see Matthias tomorrow. After talking, I had to decide how to move in the future. And there's resistance to telling Sofia the truth. Even if one day you have to know, it is not now.

"Yes... I see."

Sofia's smile is hard. Are you still worried? Gilbert thought for a moment before opening his mouth.

"I won't hide it. I promise I'll talk to you."

Sofia glances into Gilbert's eyes. I nodded once and stroked my head with my hands off my cheeks.

"Besides, you'll be busy from now on. ─ ─ Will you be my wife?

Sofia dyed her cheeks. Too many things have happened today, but it is true that Gilbert proposed. Now that you've taken this hand, you won't be able to continue to work as a maid as you have ever done. You may learn more and suffer more.

"Yes. Um... I can do my best. I love Gilbert...."

Combining your hands in front of you, you seem to be holding your hand and speaking desperately, conveying your thoughts throughout your body. I was driven by the urge to take her to the room like this, but I let go just by gently mouthing my cheeks.

"Thank you. Good night, Sofia. ─ ─ I love you."

Leave a short word and turn your heel back. I wasn't used to words of love. I just hope Sofia can sleep tonight without breaking her heart a bit. I've never felt this way about anyone before.

There were many things to think about in front of me. Hans will be waiting for you when you get back to your room. Gilbert stops in the hallway to his room and somehow leans against the wall. I closed my eyes and leaned towards warm feelings filling my chest for a while.
