While Bianca was restless, a servant of the Marquis brought tea.Apparently Beatrice asked for it.The tea that was brewed at the same time was so delicious that Bianca didn't want to compare it to what she made herself.Beatrice returns to his room sooner than he drinks the tea.

Bianca poured the rest of the tea remaining warm in the pot into a Beatrice's cup to finish the sermon that was going to start as soon as possible.

Sitting in the opposite chair and having a sip of tea, Beatrice exhaled slowly and opened her mouth.

"Let's just say nothing happened ─ ─"

"With what?"

Bianca was surprised and rounded her eyes.Now that Sofia has power, it's easy to blame whoever said something bad about Sofia on that spot - I told you it was Lilia.That way, no one will be able to do the same in the future.When I said "show off", it was a bad way to say it, but I thought I would.Rather, if it were Bianca, I would.

"You're right. You're not out of this room either...My wife says, "I didn't do anything." You don't have my sermon. "

"Oh no...."

I thought I would be preached about leaving the room and accidentally breaking into the tea party venue.It's being processed as if it weren't there.No matter how much Bianca kept quiet, I wonder if that's it.

"What, you don't like it?"

"Of course not. It's a lie to be told that and nothing will happen.How soft Sofia was and how he kept quiet ─ ─ "

Speaking so far, Bianca noticed.Sofia is protecting Lilia and selling her favors at the same time.If Sofia tells Gilbert about this, the man who seems to love Sofia will hunt down Lilia.It's not enough to stand up and judge, but there are many ways to turn your hands.Bianca knows that.

I don't know how much Lilia thought about it.Maybe he just wanted to say bad things, or maybe he wanted to add his side to the family without Sofia.

Either way, by not behaving as a victim on the spot, Lilia would have felt strongly that Sofia had taken advantage of her weakness.

Beatrice shook his neck to the side to make him a bad student.

"That's right. She's such a sweet, smart girl.Why don't you do an apprenticeship? "

In that way, Bianca frowned.

"It's annoying."

But Beatrice closed his eyes like a cup of tea without noticing.

"But that's how it is. ─ ─ I'm sure you're bored too, so are you going to the city tomorrow?"

Eh, is that okay?

Bianca's heart rose.I came to King's Landing, but I was alone in my room.The recoil that I have been in the vineyard every day makes me want to catch the sun.I'm sure there won't be any inconvenience to Bianca as long as you walk around the city.

"Next time, we won't have a reception until two weeks later.You're carrying your things. "

"I'm not going to use it again."

"If you complain, why don't you go?"

Let's go!

Bianca said clearly to Beatrice, who smiled.

◇ ◇ ◇

"I wonder if you're okay...."

After the tea party, Sofia looked back at today in her room and blued her face.

Lilia, who had left the salon before the tea party, did not show up until it was over.It's because Sofia told me to.

A little after the beginning, Christina came back to play with an elderly lady.The young ladies who were introduced to Sofia at the previous luncheon were easy to talk to, and the tea party always had a calm atmosphere.It would be a success in itself.

However, Lilia was truncated from the tea party seat and Bianca, who acted as a cover for Sofia, wandered without a place to settle in Sofia's heart.

Talking about it, Carina wrinkled her eyebrows uncomfortably before laughing and dropping her shoulders.

"I'm as worried as ever.Count Gere is serious, and Count Ruglan is generous.Neither, I don't think I'd do anything wrong. "

Sophia stopped worrying about Carina, who dared to say nothing.Even now, there's nothing you can do.

"That's right... yeah. Thank you, Carina."

I can't deny that Sofia has a past that they despise.Sure, my uncles are criminals, and my parents were killed and no one was around.That's why I was ready to act so strongly that I didn't think it was a weakness.Still, when I heard it clearly in my mouth at that place, I got injured.It was a coincidence that Bianca gave the wound first aid.It was a surprise, but thanks to it I was able to survive the tea party safely.

That's why Sofia shouldn't bother anymore.

"I wish I'd been better.All right, everybody's home. Why don't you take a break?Would you like to change into something comfortable? "

Sofia shook her head at Carina's suggestion.

Yes, there are still people staying here.

I really want to change and stay in my room until dinner time.I don't mind dropping off the visitors, but only the guests staying at the Marquis are supposed to stay until the reception.I was hesitant to get too relaxed in case things happened.

"Oh, I see. Now, let's take a break and have some tea. I'll bring it."

Carina said so and headed to the door of the room.On his back, Sofia shouted in haste.

"Carina, will you have some tea with me?"

"Of course! Just a moment."

Carina left the room with a faint smile.
