“The Emperor urgently ordered it. It would be best for you to depart right away, even today.”
With the decisive words of the ambassador, Valerie looked at Alicia again.
In response to the unspoken question, implying, ‘Is this also your doing?’ Alicia smiled politely.
“Nevertheless, I am relieved that the schedule is all filled, Your Highness.”
“What did you say?”
“I requested an extension of two weeks. I believe you enjoyed Britannia sufficiently during that time, Your Highness.”
“Y-you!”
Facing the fierce gaze of the princess, Alicia received it calmly and stood up.
“I hope you have a safe and pleasant journey back, Your Highness.”
As Alicia watched Princess Valerie boarding the carriage from the corridor window, someone approached her.
“In the end, it went as you wished. How does it feel?”
It was Chase.
“Well, Princess Valerie seemed sincere about Eric. So, I do feel a bit sorry for her.”
“······.”
Alicia felt cruel towards herself, worrying about the feelings of a foreign princess while being completely unaware of her own feelings.
“She paid a high price for acting on her own as a princess and risking the nation.”
“······.”
As Valerie’s carriage started moving, Alicia turned to Chase and smiled.
“Thank you, Chase.”
“Huh?”
“For helping this time. With the movements of the Adrian Kingdom and even the Valua Imperial information. Your swift actions were a great help in assessing the situation.”
“It’s your request, so of course.”
Chase shrugged.
There had indeed been some hesitation about whether to help.
It had been a dilemma whether to expose the nasty deeds.
But there was no other choice.
“Your requests are always the top priority.”
“Huh?”
“Nothing.”
Chase laughed and turned his gaze out of the window.
“I envy your brother.”
“?”
Alicia turned her puzzled gaze to Chase.
His profile looked somehow different than usual.
“I feel so happy that my fiancée went this far to protect me. But I don’t know if it’s because of possessiveness or arrogance.”
“Huh?”
Alicia hesitated and closed her mouth.
She never expected to be so focused on someone, especially a man.
Alicia herself felt unfamiliar in her current state, and she wondered how she would appear to Eric.
“Does it seem too possessive?”
“Pfft.”
Suddenly, Chase burst into laughter.
Chuckling, Chase held onto the window frame and laughed.
“Why, why are you laughing? I’m serious.”
“No, that’s… What you said was just absurd.”
Although the embarrassed Alicia protested, Chase continued to laugh, asking what on earth she was talking about.
“Alicia, you say really unbelievable things. Why is that so bad?”
“······.”
“If it were me, I’d be overjoyed.”
“But still.”
“It’s because you love him that much.”
Alicia closed her mouth in response to Chase’s serious face and voice.
Feeling somewhat embarrassed, Alicia nodded quietly and answered.
“Yes.”
“Alright then. If my brother says anything, tell me. I’ll.”
“?”
“I’ll really hit him properly. Just to give him a taste of humility.”
“What? But.”
“But even if I hit him, I’m not sure if he’ll take it willingly. Assaulting the commander of the Knights doesn’t seem easy.”
In the end, to Alicia, who burst into laughter, Chase casually added as if joking.
“Still, I’d like to hit him once and see. But the aftermath is scary, so I want to take you and run away.”
“Okay, understood. If that happens, I’ll go with you.”
“Okay. If that happens, let’s go together.”
With a slightly different tone and nuance, Chase and Alicia looked at each other and laughed.
It was a hectic day.
Leading her somewhat tired body, Alicia returned to the Russell Marquis’s mansion.
“Really busy, aren’t you? Every time?”
“Surprisingly.”
Unexpectedly, the one who greeted Alicia was not the butler, as usual, but Eric.
It had been quite a while since she returned to the mansion, and although she was in comfortable attire, Eric’s expression did not look comfortable.
“When did you come?”
“A while ago.”
“Oh, did Princess Valerie leave, so you came.”
“······How did you know? It was decided suddenly today.”
Although Alicia was surprised by Eric’s question, she was more concerned about Eric’s mischievous expression.
“I happened to find out.”
Casually responding, Alicia tried to pass by Eric.
But Eric was quicker in his actions.
He grabbed Alicia’s arm as she tried to pass by and pulled her toward him.
“We have something to talk about, don’t we?”
“Yes?”
After making eye contact with Eric, Alicia realized that he had figured out everything.
“I’m a bit tired now. Can’t we talk after I freshen up and come out?”
“······.”
Although it was evident that she was trying to avoid the situation, Eric released Alicia’s arm without saying anything.
“Sure, then. We’ll talk later.”
“Okay.”
Alicia smiled at Eric and continued walking to go upstairs.
Behind her, Eric, who was left behind, watched Alicia going upstairs in silence, clenching his fist and looking askew.
After washing up and changing into comfortable clothes, Alicia sat in front of the dressing table, brushing her hair. At that moment, a knocking sound was heard.
“Can we talk now?”
Next to the door, Eric leaned against it and asked, looking expectant.
Alicia nodded her head.
“Sure.”
Then Eric entered the room, and Alicia stood up from the dressing table.
“What is it?”
“You did quite well with the business, didn’t you?”

When Yu Shu was diagnosed with pregnancy, Yan Jin stared at his belly for a long time.
Covering his stomach, he muttered gloomily, “If you don’t like it, I’ll go get an abortion.”
“It’s not that I don’t like it.” Yan Jin hugged Yu Shu and said softly, “I just feel like I’m not human.”
Yu Shu comforted Yan Jin, “I was already an adult when we got together.”
Yan Jin hesitated, “But you won’t be of legal marriageable age even after giving birth to the child.”
At the same time, a flood of bullet comments appeared in the live streaming room that the two couldn’t see.
