"Hey, long time no see."

"... Yep"

Three days after I accepted Mr. Edward's engagement.

Just as soon as possible, I'm going to have dinner with Mr. Edward at Father's tease. I'm alone with Mr. Edward now in a restaurant that's even more expensive than Wang Du.

Most importantly, as I do with Natalia, I also bring one of the men from the escort. So it's not technically just the two of us.

Mr. Edward is asking the clerk for something. I'm talking about aperitifs and other brands that I'm not sure about, but I don't know. You never come to a store like this.

And once again, Mr. Edward, who finished ordering, turned to me.

"Then again...... my name is Edward Raul Freakista. I wonder if that means the eldest son of Lord Raul, the king's brother."

"... my name is Carol Ambrose"

"Yeah. I've heard from Her Majesty the Queen several times. Anyway, he's a serious kid. She told me that she was a daughter who would do everything right, even though she told me many times that she was impotent when educating me."

"... thank you"

"Your Majesty and the Queen have told me about you and Ray... about Rayford. I have a relationship with my cousin. I didn't know you were stupid enough to push the dissolution of your engagement in public surveillance."

"... right"

With His Highness Rayford, it seems like a long time ago.

It doesn't matter now, does it? They're under house arrest.

And... because I was able to have a sweet dream with Master Wilhelm.

"He's crazy about the colorful incense of the Baron's daughter, and he can't even put it on the royal wind, such as sleeving his noble daughter who should have been tied. I know there's a lot of political will, but I should have nurtured love."

"… what about it"

"At least I don't think I can have anything of my own will in marriage. I don't know anything about you, Miss Carroll. [M] However, there was also a recommendation from Her Majesty the Queen, and it is just an affair to say that there is a position of being a duke's maid. That's what I know, but how about you?

"... right. It's not wrong."

Mr. Edward's words are true.

It is inherently aristocracy that even one's own partner has to decide for the house. Because it is often inadmissible to marry unless the house is commensurate in character.

In other words, in order to marry after a relationship, it is mentioned that being a paedophile is more or less the same degree of personality and is not present in opposition forces. So it is not uncommon for one or two mistresses to be present in the Lord of the House of Lords.

But Mr. Edward frowned abominably.

"But I want to be honest with you as much as I can. If you're going to marry me, we don't know anything right now, but I think we need to get to know each other. I swear I love you."

"... sorry, I am"

Of course I know that.

Mr. Edward exhales in a small way.

Probably just one of you floating around behind that brain.

And those who still occupy my heart.

I'm listening to you, too, Mr. Wilhelm.

"... is that right?"

Tickling, and stabbing pain in the chest.

I didn't forget about Master Wilhelm. The fact that I admire you wholeheartedly remains the same.

Just.

That's how - you decide on my wound that hasn't healed yet.

"I'm so sorry to hear about Master Wilhelm... He was one of the most powerful generals in history, unparalleled in Freakista... I didn't think he was going to be a reinforcement to the Empire."

……

"Both His Majesty the King and Her Majesty the Queen had acknowledged your marriage to Master Wilhelm. That's why I was supposed to marry my wife from another nobleman. I never thought you'd get engaged like this. [M] It was a rejection once."

……

Yes, we were, admittedly.

Even if there were not a few political thoughts involved there, they were admittedly.

Even so.

Because on your own, you will pass away...

"If you still admire Mr. Wilhelm, I don't mind."

"... but it"

"Are you trying to say you're dishonest? I want you to feel safe. I'm not asking you to love me until you forget about Wilhelm. As I said earlier, you and I don't know anything yet. It would be fine if you knew about me in your marriage, little by little. Love is what grows."

……

I'm an honest person.

Mr. Edward, really, wants me like this.

All I can think about yet is Master Wilhelm, and he tells me that it's okay.

"So you don't have to be sick. But I swear. As long as I marry you, I love you for life. [M] Don't look at other women like Rayford."

"... thank you, sir"

"So I'm glad you got to know me slowly."

"... Yes"

Kind - how sweet of you.

Tell me that you are honest, kind, and that you will only love me for the rest of your life.

If I were you, I would be the next king. Even though he is more arrogant and deserved.

If you show such honesty and sincerity, you will be bonded as me.

And - I can't let that happen.

Just because you lost someone you swore you'd love for the rest of your life, Master Wilhelm, is like switching to another man lightly.

That's even tough, because it seems...

"So I'll say it again. And you can take your time. Just take your time, let's make a future for both of us."

……

Mr. Edward put that clap on my hand, which he kept on the table.

Warm it touches, and.

I want you to marry me.

……

I don't like it.

I don't like it.

I was supposed to be Mr. Wilhelm's wife.

I was supposed to be Mr. Wilhelm's wife in the future.

But.

No matter how much I wish, Master Wilhelm will not return.

Then this self is for the house.

For the connection between the royal family and the Duke of Ambrose house.

You have to dedicate it.

"... Yes"

So.

Now, that was good, wasn't it? Dear Wilhelm...
