Somehow trying to soften the matter, Delina desperately added. Whether he knew or not, Luton just alternately stared at Duke Bellion and Delina with a blank face.
“So, grandfather. If you allow it, I would like to stay with the Duke.”
“…With the Duke?”
“It’s entirely my decision, grandfather. I really want to go to the Duke’s place.”
Assuring that it wasn’t at all a threat, Delina looked at Luton with intense eyes. At her words, Luton, who had been silently closing his eyes and contemplating, opened his mouth.
“Alright, Delina. Then I would like to talk with His Grace alone for a moment. Could you please leave us?”
“Ah… Yes.”
Somehow worried, Delina glanced at Duke Bellion. However, the Duke simply stood there without a word. Watching the two, Delina slowly went outside.
‘Grandfather really has a weak heart.’
Concerned that Duke Bellion might say something strange again, Delina kept alternating glances between the two. But as soon as Delina left the room, she encountered someone else.
“Young lady!”
“Lil… Kachak!”
Waiting at the door, Lilia, trembling and holding a broom, suddenly embraced Delina.
“Are you alright, young lady?”
“I was fine until now, but now I feel a bit suffocated…”
“Did you, by any chance, get threatened? What about the Earl?”
“They’re talking together.”
“Both of them?”
Lilia’s complexion changed once more at the mention of Duke Bellion talking with Luton. Then, Delina reassured Lilia.
“It’s nothing strange. It’s not a threat, and I might go to the Duke’s house.”
“You, young lady?”
“Yes. Since I can’t tell all the servants one by one, if I happen to go, please speak on my behalf, Lil. Don’t worry. It’s not the dangerous thing you’re thinking.”
This time, Delina hugged Lilia.
“You know better than anyone when I’m lying, Lil. But look. Do I look like I’m lying to you now?”
“No. But…”
“I’m really going because I want to. So it’s fine.”
Though she said she was going to the Duke’s, she did not mention the patronage. It was big news as it was.
“Hey!”
Then another character who could cause a commotion appeared. It was Gideon.
“You, you…! What’s going on?”
“Brother.”
Having heard the news of Duke Bellion’s arrival, Gideon rushed over, his eyes wide as he stared at Delina. Leaving Lilia’s embrace, Delina approached Gideon.
“To make it short since I’ve already told you, I might go to the Duke’s place.”
“What?”
“It’s not a threat or anything like that. I can even swear on your wrist.”
“…Why would you swear on my wrist?”
Pushing it away as absurd, Gideon asked with a serious face.
“…Really, you’re going?”
“Yes. I’m going. It’s not a complete farewell, so don’t worry too much.”
Then Delina leaned a little closer to Gideon and whispered softly.
“And brother. Those two people, don’t trust them too much.”
Two people were vaguely referred to, but Gideon, who realized that it meant Niel and Charlotte, quietly nodded his head.
“Yes.”
Unlike usual, the way he forcibly treated Delina or confined her to the attic seemed to be quite shocking to Gideon as well. In response to Delina’s words, Gideon also answered quite seriously.
And sure enough… they’re here.
Given the situation, they couldn’t have not shown up. Delina looked at Niel and Charlotte, who were coming from afar.

The person he finds displeasing in this life turns out to be his cherished wife-master in previous life…
Xie Zhi and Fang Xianxing who had known each other for less than three days through a blind date sat in the same car in front of the civil affairs bureau. They had a disagreement and failed to get married.
Xie Zhi immediately took out his phone, slid through his contacts, and randomly selected the next marriage candidate.
The woman snatched his phone and hung up. Looking at his phone wallpaper, she awkwardly changed the subject: “An ancient painting, eh? It looks pretty good, it’s just that the person in the painting looks a bit like me.”
When he heard this, he sarcastically mocked her for being so delusional, completely unaware that, the person in front of him was the reincarnation of Wen Ru, the famous prime minister of Yuan Shun whom he most admired…
