“I needed information about that family, and I wanted to interact with a young lady called Iris, who is known as the flower of that family. So I sent a letter.”
“So?”
Herena looked back at Lisi with an incredulous expression.
Lisi, who had slightly opened her lips and was looking at Kevrant, barely nodded her head.
“Yes.”
“You think I’ll believe that?”
“No.”
Lisi answered honestly.
Herena couldn’t help but smile at her.
Because Lisi looked like a young girl being scolded by her parents.
“Don’t ask. Even if it’s about a child, digging deep into a relationship between men and women is rude. But there’s one thing I want you to tell me honestly. Is this house better than the Duke of Wittle’s?”
For the first time, Lisi’s eyes wavered at that question. Her light purple pupils rippled, creating waves and then became calm.
Lisi smiled, but to Herena, it looked as if Lisi was crying.
“I have never been.”
Lisi’s voice trembled slightly. Lisi, realizing it, paused for a moment.
After taking a small breath, Lisi opened her mouth again.
“I’ve never been this happy before.”
Kevrant tightly held Lisi’s hand.
“You’re going to be even happier.”
Lisi looked at Kevrant.
“I look forward to it.”
The two, smiling faintly at each other, looked like lovers in love to anyone.
Only then did Herena sigh in relief. Her son had not brought a lady by force and made her sit in the wife’s seat.
“Okay, I understand. That’s it. Don’t mention your marriage anymore.”
“I apologize for not informing you in advance.”
“That’s not something you should apologize for.”
Herena said, staring at Kevrant.
Kevrant smiled slightly.
“I’m sorry, mother. Father.”
“We’ll leave a little later. You guys go first.”
“Yes, then we’ll go ahead, Countess of Green Knoll.”
“Lisi.”
“Yes?”
“You’re not the Countess of Green Knoll.”
“Then……?”
“Since the marriage report has already been done, wouldn’t it be okay to call me mother?”
Lisi, who had her eyes wide open, soon laughed brightly.
“Yes, mother.”
As soon as Lisi and Kevrant left, Herena looked back at her husband.
“What was your reason for liking Lisi as soon as you saw her?”
“Lisi looks like a pure and slender lady to anyone……”
A smile spread around Wyvern’s mouth.
“She had the eyes of a warrior.”
+++
Kevrant and Lisi left the reception room and headed to the garden.
Only when they went out into the open did Lisi feel like she could breathe comfortably.
“I was too nervous.”
“You didn’t seem so.”
“I’m sorry.”
“For what?”
“For hiding the fact that I’m an illegitimate child.”
“I suspected that.”
“Really?”
Kevrant gently held the end of Lisi’s hair and wrapped it around his finger. Then he kissed the wrapped part and said,
“I thought there must be a reason if such a pretty girl was being abused.”
She had heard the word pretty quite a lot.
But when Kevrant looked straight at her and said she was pretty, she felt ticklish around her heart and she felt like she couldn’t look straight at Kevrant.
Lisi sidestepped her gaze and said,
“I’m glad your parents accepted me.”
“They’re not my parents, Lisi. They’re your parents now, too.”
“But……”
“Believe me. From the moment they told you to call them mother, they accepted you as our family.”
“I hope that’s the case.”
In her past life, Alford’s mother had also said the same thing at first.
Call me mother from now on. I’ll treat you like a daughter.
She thought she could live a different life than in the Wittle’s.
Like the Duke of Wittle cherished Britney, she had hoped that Alford’s mother would cherish her as well.
But the situation didn’t change at all.
No, it became even more painful.
“Iris?”
Kevrant’s call pulled her out of her reverie.
The worry reflected in Kevrant’s greyblue eyes gently eased Iris’s suffocating heart.
“Do you know that you sometimes have a very pained expression?”
“Is that so?”
She had to be careful.
“What should I do so that my wife doesn’t have to suffer?”
“Kevrant, I’m not suffering.”
Kevrant slightly furrowed his brow.
“How can I ensure that my wife doesn’t lie?”
“I’m not a liar, Kevrant. I’m really not suffering.”
Just because memories of a past life lingered, occasionally pressing on this heart, and that was a bit uncomfortable. She was more than satisfied with her life with Kevrant.
“Ah, I’ve come up with something good.”
Kevrant suddenly embraced Iris tightly.
A hug so tight it was almost suffocating.
Whenever Kevrant hugged her like this, her body’s tension relaxed, and a new tension would come.
A tension that was completely different from the dark and heavy tension, a pinkish, sweet tension.
“When you’re upset knowing that I’m not a regular Shuin. When I was feeling blue, my family would hug me like this. It always made me feel better.”
“That’s not just ‘feeling better’.”
Iris, with her face buried in Kevrant’s chest, murmured.
Kevrant, smiling, stroked Iris’s hair.
“Are you feeling better?”
“Very much.”
“I’m glad. Then, Iris, I will hug you like this whenever you seem to be in pain.”
“Anywhere?”
“Anytime, in any place.”
“Even in front of the emperor?”
Kevrant laughed lightly and kissed the top of Iris’s head.
His breath, digging into her hair, was warm and strange.
He whispered with his lips still touching.
“Even in front of the gods.”

The carriage of the Duke of Witlow departed from the mansion.
Its destination was the Earl of Green’s mansion.
