I awkwardly rubbed my nose and draped the shawl handed to me by Anna around my shoulders. It’s horrifying that it’s expected to be cold until the end of March……. When will spring and summer come? I wish they’d hurry up.
“Ah, madam! You’ve arrived!”
“Madam, would you like to taste this dish?”
“Please take a look at the decorations for the banquet while you are here…….”
Since rescuing the water children, the people of Salisbury Castle have become very respectful of me.
The 180degree change in atmosphere makes me feel shy. People who were afraid of me just a little while ago now avoid me…….
“Ah, madam! I had something to tell you……”
“About one of the water children you rescued last time, actually, my cousin’s…….”
Like this, they come to me first and speak kindly, but it’s very shocking to me. It should be seen as a good change, though.
“Mmm, this is delicious.”
“Thank you, madam!”
“I think it’s best not to do that decoration……. It feels too noisy…….”
“Is that so! I’ll remove it right away!”
“Madam, would you like to invite a famous musician and poet to tonight’s banquet from around here…….”
“Madam, do you like this silver candlestick? Or this gold one…….”
In addition, my responsibilities have increased enormously! These are all supposed to be the duties of the mistress, but since they suddenly rushed in, it’s hard to handle, in many ways.
“I think a silver candlestick would be better. Inviting musicians and poets is not a bad idea. They just have to be reputable and genteel ones…….”
“As expected! Everything madam says is right!”
“…….”
Thus, no one offered a contrary opinion to what I said. Even the picky Mrs. Milton!
“……You’re here, madam. Were you supervising the preparation of the banquet?”
Speak of the tiger and it appears; Mrs. Milton, who suddenly appeared, spoke to me. With a somewhat courteous attitude, with eyes full of gratitude towards me.
Ugh, I really can’t get used to it.
“I’d like to thank you once again for saving my nephew, Tiberi.”
It was already her 21st thankyou. No, you can stop now. If you keep doing this, it’s overwhelming.
Anyway, I had to answer the question she had given me, so I swallowed a sigh and opened my mouth.
“Is Tiberi doing well and healthy? I don’t think I’ve seen him since that day…….”
“Yes, as soon as he got back, he was causing trouble… I mean, he’s doing very well.”
Mrs. Milton quickly changed her words. That Tiberi, apparently a naughty trickster among adults.
‘Come to think of it, the incident where Tiberi angered the snow rabbits was….’
……What happened? At the time, it seemed April had handled it well, but the whole conversation was in rabbit language, so I couldn’t understand a word.
‘Well, as long as the snow rabbits’ anger has subsided, it’s fine. I’ll have to ask April later about what conversation they had.’
Our rabbit is truly remarkable. She takes care of all that on her own. Today, as soon as I spot a rabbit, I must hug it and praise it lavishly. Although I do it all the time.
“It would be good if Tiberi could attend the banquet. That guy was quite brave in the Spirit Maze.”
“Thank you for saying so… I will look for Tiberi now. I wonder where he has gone again…”
Mrs. Milton, sighing heavily, bid me farewell and went off to look for Tiberi. Finally escaping the burdensome situation, I fled the banquet hall and headed for the garden.
Standing in the middle of the wideopen garden, I felt like I could breathe. But it was too cold.
I didn’t get far before I decided to return to the main building, and from a distance, I noticed a figure approaching me.
“Hmm…?”
It was none other than Grayan’s errand boy. He came towards me, politely bringing his hands together, and spoke.
“Madam, the Duke is looking for you. There is something he urgently needs to discuss…”
Urgent discussion? About the Humanitarian Rescue Association, perhaps? Arwin is still investigating the facility.
“I understand. Where is the Duke?”
“He is in the conference room now.”
“Alright. I will go right away.”
So I entered the main building again, where the festive atmosphere warmly welcomed me.
People were quite happy about the arrest of the kidnapper who had long troubled the people of Elowin Kingdom, and the recovery of the kidnapped children.
“Madam, are you going for a walk?”
“The soup is ready; would you like to taste it…?”
“Madam! What do you think about decorating the banquet chairs with this ribbon?”
I hurriedly dealt with the people clinging to me and made my way to the conference room as quickly as possible.
Who would have thought I’d become so popular all of a sudden… Life is indeed unpredictable.
Knockknock.
“…Come in.”
Upon knocking on the conference room door, Grayan’s voice was heard right away. I tidied up my hair and appearance and opened the door to enter.
Grayan, Arwin, and the Knight Commander were in the conference room, and the atmosphere was quite heavy.
“Madam.”
Grayan smiled and reached out to me. I approached him and gently took his hand. He had me sit beside him.
As I sat down, Arwin flashed something like a courteous smile, then asked sharply,
“Duchess, have you received any communication from King Ainstern?”
“What? Why would His Majesty the King… I mean, the former King, contact me? I’m no different from a discarded child.”
“….”
Responding with a furrowed brow as if asking why he would ask such a thing, Arwin’s eyes became strange looking at me… But this feels like an interrogation. Is he suspecting me?
“I apologize for being rude. I’m in a very bad mood right now. Honestly, sometimes I can’t help but suspect you, being from the Ainstern royal family, especially in a situation like this.”
“This situation…?”
The investigation was going smoothly, wasn’t it? I looked at Grayan, asking for an explanation. He tightly held my hand and sighed heavily before speaking.
“Please forgive Arwin’s rudeness, Madam. A few hours ago, an accident occurred, and he’s been on edge ever since.”
“An accident…?”
“Yes, not otherwise… There was a fire at the Humanitarian Rescue Association’s facility.”
“……?!”
When yandere male lead believes she loves him — but she never did
“How dare you!”
“How dare you make me love you, only to cast me aside as nothing more than a friend?!?
“I will never accept that.”
“I will never let you return to him.”
“Even if I have to burn myself to ashes.”
“Even if I must shatter my purity, my dignity, my very soul.”
“I will never let you escape me!”
This was the first novel that introduced me to the matriarchal genre. I’ve read it three times already!
At first, the male lead despised the female lead. Later, he misunderstood that she liked him, so he condescendingly and reluctantly reciprocated her feelings.
