When I did it, it was as if I was making a spider’s web, but when he did it, it seemed like he was making some pretty pink flowers.
I quit after that.
“Then, I don’t think we can do that.”
“Anywhere else?”
“Well, how about a book club? I’m looking for an intelligent man. I’m sure there are a lot of boys around our age besides the ladies?”
“Okay, let’s go there. It’s much better than those gamblers who only drink and gamble.”
Just as long as we didn’t meet boring, condescending men.
After careful consideration, Flora and I decided to attend the next social gathering and replied that we would attend. We were able to receive the books they were going to discuss as well as a list of places to read.
Way to go, LULU!

Gerald sent a small gift to Storm, who ran away from his date with Louella. It was the price he gave for being sensible and well-behaved.
A small gift to him was a letter of recommendation to the president of the bank. Since the Logan family’s seal was stamped, the promotion was given to him in just a second.
The strange thing was…
He had to work in another province for three years?’
Of course, this wasn’t something odd. Usually, when there was a promotion, employees had to be assigned to another province to get promoted and then return to the system.
But at that time, Gerald.
“That’s suspicious.”
It’s not a bad thing anyway.
The promotion of Storm had already been decided.
* * *
It was nothing but he used it as an excuse to meet Louella.
Gerald waited for Louella while drinking tea with the strong scent of flowers.
Yesterday, Louella met Storm and went to see Flora.
The reason Gerald knew about it was thanks to Flora. Even if Flora didn’t mean to tell him.
[To: Gerald]
I talked to Louella today. I realized that if I stay like this, nothing will happen. In the meantime, I heard that you were close to Professor Billiers while attending the academy.
Can I have an opportunity to meet Professor Billiers? Of course, it’s just… It’s an academic question. I have a lot of questions for Professor Billiers.
Feel free to contact me if you can help me. Of course, in exchange, I am more than willing to help if you want something.
From your friend, Flora
It was a clear letter of intent. Flora had her eye on Billiers.
For Gerald, who was not interested in others, it didn’t matter what Flora or Billiers felt.
He was just glad that he could come to see Louella under this pretext.
Unlike Gerald, Louella was also interested in other people’s things.
“Argh. Why do you come out so early these days, Gerald?”
“It’s because I wanted to see you. Lulu, did you sleep well?”
Gerald smiled.
Louella squinted her eyes at Gerald. “So early in the morning… It’s refreshing.”
“Did you eat?”
“I have to eat now. What about you?” Louella yawned quietly and asked.
Gerald wakes up early in the morning, warms up with simple training, and then eats breakfast.
But Gerald didn’t miss a single opportunity to be with Louella.
“Me, too. I’m hungry, Lulu.” Gerald smiled.

Why isn’t he eating?
I instructed the maid to prepare a simple breakfast.
“It’s gotten a little warmer today, so I think you can eat on the balcony…”
“Never, no. Ugh. It’s cold.”
“Yes, ma’am.”
Balcony in this weather?…. I’d be in big trouble. I pulled the blanket over my knee and buried myself.
Gerald burst into laughter as he looked at me covering myself with a blanket on the chair.
“What?”
“You look like a bean bug.”
Gerald patted my hair lightly.
Well, I agree that I’m cute.
“When will it get warm? I hate winter. Why didn’t you eat earlier? What happened?”
“Oh, just because.” Gerald smiled.
Oh, stop smiling. It’s too bright. Everything that surrounds him is shining. It’s getting sunnier in the morning?
Does he smile knowing how it affects me?
“What made you come here?”
“I think Flora wants you to become the bridge for her and Billiers.”
“Are you saying…”
If only Flora had sent the letter to Billiers.
“Did you know that?”
“Well… maybe because you introduced me to him. I think the first time I saw him was the day he came to teach me,” Gerald said.
“I see.”
“Can you help her?”
“What do you mean?”
“No, you know. Billiers spends all day on his research. I’m asking if it’s possible for him to be in a relationship. Is Flora having such an impossible dream?”
I was genuinely worried. Flora would do her best to achieve her dream. Would Billiers be able to deal with her?
“That’s something the two of us need to work out. We might need to help her. Lulu, what do you think?” Gerald asked me affectionately.
Wow, you’re suddenly so attentive at times like this. That irks me, you know?
But…
“You shouldn’t be asking for my opinion. Flora’s opinion is the one that matters,” I said.
“I’m not that close to Flora. I’m only close to you, Lulu.”
Well, he is such a narrow-minded person. You’re saying you won’t help Flora because she’s not close with you?
