The plain and unnoticed me is no more

174 · Maria's feelings

"Hey, is that true?

"Er...."

Sin got stuck, but I can't say much about upset.

The dissolution of the engagement involves the assassination attempt on Lord Wilfred, and it's not something I can talk about.

Does Maria know the reason for the termination of the engagement? If I had known, I would not have raised this topic in front of Singh, and perhaps it was a perception of childhood and deceased selfishness.

"Why did Maria hear that? I mean... how did you get into such a conversation with your uncle?

"I wanted to know why Lord Wilfred is obsessed with Elaine. I was wondering if your father knew about it, so I asked him this morning. And then you answered me."

"That's right...."

"His Highness has dissolved his engagement himself, but now he is trying to make contact with Elaine. I kind of feel so selfish and arrogant about it...."

"You're not convinced?

"Yeah, that's right. I was so lost... that I wanted to prioritize Elaine's feelings."

Not only did you erase the record of your engagement with me, but you erased all your memories of Your Highness from me without your consent.

Looking at this, Maria doesn't seem to have heard that I've been erased.

Well, you don't know Maria's father that well. You should be careful not to tell me if you know.

"Thank you, Maria. I'm sorry about the mess between His Highness and me."

"It's okay. I've spoken rudely of arrogance, but His Highness Wilfred is a wonderful man. If you ever change your mind, just let me know."

I know His Highness is a wonderful man. But I didn't have the qualities to be queen, and I found another way. In Maria's current position, she doesn't want me to go to Her Majesty's side, but she can't abandon her desire to learn from Her Majesty's feelings.

"My goal was to become Princess Elaine's maid. I've given up on that dream, but there's still a chance."

"No, there's no chance. I told you. My current life suits me. I'll tell His Highness... how I feel, so Maria should only report what she persuaded me to do."

She would have been a maid of honor if she had done well.

But the situation has changed dramatically. She is now one of the crown princess candidates. Maria's complex mood is immeasurable.

In Liam's words, His Majesty was trying to distance herself from Maria.

I've called Daria from a neighboring country and asked me to represent her so that she wouldn't be expected to be a partner in the night club.

At times like this, I rely on Maria, so I don't know what to say... cheat.

What should I do if, as I heard at the night club, Maria admires His Highness Wilfred?

Maria does not know that she is the general of Her Majesty's boarding house and has a relationship with her allies in Shimomachi. If I don't leave King's Landing, I may soon haunt Maria even more.

As I discovered Fred's identity, there is no guarantee that His Highness will not find out who he is.

Master Elaine. Even if I can't think of getting back together with His Highness, can I go to school? I miss you so much.... "

"Maria, I already run my own inn. I don't have time to go to school, and I don't need my education. Once the kidnapping is solved, I'll never be in public again."

Well, you won't be seeing Miss Elaine anymore.

"That's not true, is it? If Maria can't come to see me, I can come here to buy flowers."

When I say so, Maria's face is gorgeous.

"Really? I'll write to you. Ask Kevin for a secret liaison!

"Well, that's a good idea! I wonder if you'll deliver my food. Fufu, I wish I'd known sooner."

"Really! Now it's time to go back to the venue."

"Oh, wait, Maria. I just want to ask one last question. Can I have your ear? Sin, take ten steps back and cover your ears."

"Hmm? Oh, okay. Don't listen to me."

After seeing Sin take ten steps back and block his ears, I talked secretly to Maria.

"Hey, does Maria admire His Highness Wilfred?

Then Maria opened her eyes and shook her neck beside her face. Even if I don't ask the answer anymore, it is written on my face that it is definitely different.

"No way! I have a secret admirer! Was that how you looked at me?

Maria was outraged and denied it outright.

From this state of affairs, I intuited that the heartless rumors I had heard at the night club were also in Maria's own ear. I'm sure that's one of the reasons you want me to come to school.

It would be painful to think that you are rubbing against His Highness even though there are others you like. When I denied it, I was disgusted and had no choice but to block my ears.

"I'm sorry, if so, I thought I'd write without seeing His Highness. I didn't mean anything by it."

"No, I was rude enough to know nothing about Elaine. I'm sorry...."

"By the way, are you seeing him today?

"I got this yesterday because I joined the search for the kidnapping case and I can't come today... Besides, in these public places....."

A platinum bracelet glittered on her thin wrist.

The bracelet had several small flower-shaped charms elaborated with jewelry and platinum, and Maria stroked them with her opposite hand to make them love.

The gems used look like pink marlin and small pearls, but if you look closely, they look like clean, polished white stones instead of pearls.

I remember seeing that white stone somewhere.

"Who can't be in public? No way. A romantic relationship?

"Chiga... my identity is with us! People who have a special job and hardly any free time!

"Well, it's hard to see each other. What's your name?

"... you don't know Elaine even if you ask her name. Besides, we're not dating. I'm just admiring it."

That's what Maria said, and she startled to look away.

They don't want to be pursued. I felt the line was drawn if I didn't ask any more questions.

Who...? I've never heard of a man who makes Maria look like this. Have you known him since I left school?

Even if it wasn't, it seemed like there was a reason, and it might have been difficult to say that I had someone I liked who was engaged to someone I didn't like (His Highness Frederick).

Maria, a steadfast man, dyed her face brightly red and spoke with her chest pounding.

In my previous life, I was only depressed by love bananas, but I was kind of happy to hear Maria's feelings.
