Sin, who was standing in his pants pocket and casually leaning against the door, slipped his hand out of his pocket and straightened his posture as we got into sight.

And I wondered if my education had borne fruit, and he lowered his head and said hello to Fred, who had come back with me.

"Welcome back, Fred. Welcome back, owner."

"Hi, Sin."

When I saw Sin's face, I was kind of relieved and smiled. The reassurance that I had returned to my place and the trust in him naturally made me feel that way.

Thin also smiled gently at my smile.

But as soon as he saw me coming to the side of the light, he realized something was wrong and looked at his face worriedly.

"Hey, you look pale again."

"Huh?... but it's okay. I'm just hungry."

Thin is going to talk later about the unexpected loss of the lid of his heart because he went out tonight, but it is difficult to draw a line as to how far to talk because the place that caused it and the people involved were the royal palace and the prince.

I can't tell you what kind of help I went to help you tonight, so I don't want to lie, but I'll have to lie to you as much as I can.

In the meantime, I thought about Fred's reply, which was not obvious even if he asked me, and after lunch, I decided to say that I was hungry because I didn't eat anything.

"Ha... I made you dinner, so let's eat together."

"Sin... I'm off, so I could eat anytime today, but you haven't finished yet?

"I'm sorry...."

Shin diverted his gaze as if he had been illuminated, opened the door, and passed Fred, a customer, inside first. Then he put his hand on my back and walked in with me and made me go to the room.

Fred walked toward the door connecting the star to the cafeteria, so I rushed to say good night.

"Good night, Fred."

"... oh, good night. By the way... are you sure you haven't eaten?

"Yeah, I didn't have time for that. But I can't help it."

"That was... bad."

I smiled at Fred with an apologetic face and bowed lightly before entering the room.

I'm not, but ordinary noble ladies don't eat very much just before parties or nightclubs, even if it's a little thin, to wear dresses tightened to gouges with corsets.

That's why I'm sure I won't have the chance to have dinner. I left as late as possible after lunch, but the maids would have thought it was something I wouldn't eat from the beginning, and I didn't have anything to say about it, so I can't help it.

"Owner, I'll warm up the rice and bring it back to you. Rest in your room."

Thank you, Sin.

Sin, who heard my reply and closed the door with Patan, seemed to be talking to Fred in the hallway afterwards. I heard Shin's voice echoing low through the door, but I didn't think it was good to overhear it, so I decided to boil the water and prepare the tea before Shin came back.

"Fred, please wait."

Sin called Fred, who was already holding the door leading to the dining room, and stopped. Chiyo still works at the front desk, even if there are no guests in the cafeteria.

"What?

Fred looked back slightly upset and looked at Singh. Sin kept a reasonable distance and approached Fred, complaining seriously about what Lana had been thinking while she came back from "helping".

"The owner may not have told you as a customer, but I just recently fell over. I decided to keep an eye on him this time because he took care of it, but when he came back, he was in such a state. You won't be able to answer me if I ask you what you just did here, but she's just too busy. Please. If the privileged ask us to do it, it is difficult for us to refuse it. I don't know what position you're in, but don't just use a nice girl for your own convenience...! Ah... sorry. That's all I'm talking about..."

Sin was going to convey the word with restraint, but the last word made the end stronger, and it ended in failure.

However, that penetrated Fred deeply.

"What? Overworked...? I'm sorry, I didn't know that...."

Fred turned pale when he heard Lana had just collapsed from overwork.

In the evening club, Lana, who had played Daria without fear, had no such pretense, so she had no way of knowing it.

Besides, it is a fact that we used it for our own convenience.

It was their fault that Liam discovered who he was, but he put it on the shelf and pressed Liam to become an ally of the First Prince, giving him no choice but once to pledge blood.

And this time, I was relieved to hear that nice Lana would be my ally again.

Offering accommodation to ourselves without talking to anyone.

Fred and Liam knew that it was the only part of their role as collaborators in the city well that Lana had promised, but that they had made quite an excessive request.

If you think calmly, it's like letting ordinary people who have not been properly trained to do so pretend to be ladies of great nobility of other countries, throwing them into a formal night club where a large number of nobles and royalties gather, and turning Dalia into a spectator instead.

Besides, it even happened to Hapning that he would be entangled by the other prince.

Fred thought Lana was under unimaginable stress.

"I will thank you again at a later date. I promise I won't ask you again."

Sin lowered his head when he heard it, and Fred exhaled and opened the door.

"Wow...."

"Hmm? Chiyo! Were you eavesdropping again?

When I opened the door, Chiyo stood. Chiyo looked in trouble and sifted her palms in front of her chest, suddenly complaining that it was different. Certainly, the usual Chiyo listened with his ears on the door, but this time he was about a meter away.

"So, what were you doing there?

"I heard Sin's voice, so I thought Lana was back and gave her some sweets...."

Chiyo pointed at the counter. Then there was a box with the store logo famous for the cheese tart. It was something that customers who came once a month would put in every time.

"That old man again?

"Yes, I came at a strange time, and I wondered what was going on, but I left this behind. Ah, Master Fred, welcome home. Liam is in the room, so I don't need the key."

"Oh, okay."

Looking sideways at Singh, who was going to the kitchen to prepare Lana's dinner, Chiyo followed Fred to the stairs somehow and talked to him.

"Um... Sin was just worried about Lana, so please forgive me for saying something stronger. Instead, I'll give you some good information. If you're thinking of thanking Lana, I've always wanted a refrigerator. Just for reference. Kufufu"

"Nh....! Did you still hear that? Absolutely... okay. For your information, I'll ask."

When Chiyo returned to the counter with a smile, he separated the confectionery box from what he wanted to eat and resumed work while eating it.

"What is it, Chiyo? Didn't you take it to the owner?

Singh saw Chiyo acting unexpectedly and called out.

"Because I don't want to be an intruder again. Anyway, Sin is going to have dinner with Lana now, right? Shouldn't I take it with me then? If I go to my room, Lana will tell me to eat sweets with you.

"Stupid, weird way to use it. When that's over, let's get some rest.

"Yes, I'm not going to Lana's room today, so please take your time. Ufufu"

Before going to Lana's room, Singh visited Chiyo with merciless chops.

And as she brought the food into Lana's room, Lana, who washed her face, sat in a chair and waited. Sin watched and thought from the bottom of his heart that he wanted to protect everything about Lana.
