Chapter 43.2

“What should I wear?”

“You haven’t even set a date yet.”

“What shawl should I wear? Are we going to have dinner?”

“Oh… How about this dress for dinner?”

“Okay! I like it!”

Along with myself, I talked with the excited maid all night about what to wear and what to date.

Until Alexid comes back around midnight.

“What?”

I opened my bedroom door in a ghostly manner and asked Alexid, who appeared.

The maid, who holding something in her hand, was surprised by Alexid’s sudden appearance.

You, what are you holding? Are you going to kill someone?

It caught my eye when I saw him hold the ball aggressively and then slowly put it down.

Should I say he’s a trustworthy man?

“What do you mean? Oh, such a struggle!” Alexid came in dragging his legs and stretched them out on the sofa.

What’s wrong with him?

“What’s wrong with you? Was the training that hard?”

Come to think of it, I haven’t seen this peanut for days.

“Did you even know that I was gone from the mansion for three days?”

“Isn’t that a good thing?”

“Tsk, you’re so cold-hearted.”

Alexid, who stretched out on the sofa, threw a cushion at me. I took it and embraced it.

“As long as you’re back alive, I’ll be fine with that. But why aren’t you resting?”

“You said you wanted to work with Veronica?” he asked.

“I did.”

Alexid drooped his shoulders with a somber look.

What’s wrong with him really?

Alexid rubbed his face with his palm. Even when he was lying down, his face expressed his gloominess.

Does this kid have a problem with Veronica?

“What’s wrong with you? Did you have a fight with Veronica?”

“I can’t get in touch with Veronica these days,” he answered.

“What does that mean?”

“Veronica won’t reach out to me.”

“What did you do to Veronica?”

Veronica, who always said that you’re cute? Are you saying that you made that kind-hearted woman angry?

What have you done, Alexid?

“I told her that I’d come back to the mansion. I said that I’d be coming tomorrow.”

“…….”

Alexid looked back at me with a tearful face.

“And then, what happened?”

You have to tell me, you peanut.

“I don’t know! I really don’t know!”

Alexid shook his head.

Oh, by the way, my life is so busy that I have to even think about saving my brother’s life.

Did this happen in the past? I can’t remember.

“I’ll ask you about it tomorrow, so go wash up and sleep. I’m going to sleep now, too.”

Alexid nodded and stood up weakly. Alexid found a letter lying on my table.

“What’s this?”

“Oh! Do you know Brenti? Brenti Borto.”

“Hmm… no. I’ve not heard too much of him, only about the fact that he went abroad to study when he was young. The Borto family originally majored in music. That’s why the eldest son, Brenti, went abroad to study.”

“What does it mean to major in music?”

“It means that all the instruments distributed in our country came from the Borto family.”

“Ah!”

“You should meet him. I hope he’s okay this time.”

Alexid put the letter down on the road table and trudged out. Louella didn’t feel good about his droopy puppy-like appearance.

Oh, man. Wait a minute. He’ll take care of it himself.

I prepared a big refreshment and dinner for Veronica. Alexid also wanted to take a seat because he could come from work early today.

“Hm.”

Veronica was eating refreshments with a very nonchalant face. Saying that there are a lot of delicious desserts today.

“Um, Veronica.”

“Yeah. What’s wrong, Lulu?”

Veronica opened her eyes wide.

“What’s wrong with Alexid these days?”

I can’t help but use honorifics when talking with her.

Veronica used honorifics and informal speech with me. It is because we are of the same age and have been together since we were young.

“Oh…….”

Veronica grinned as if she knew what I was talking about. Then, she put down the dessert and shrugged her shoulders.

“There’s no problem with him at all.”

“He’s worried because you haven’t reached out to him. Did Alexid make a mistake?”

“That’s not true. I think I’ve been a little negligent lately.”

“What?”

Veronica tapped her chin with her fingers. Then she began to talk cautiously. “We’ve been together since we were young. Actually, I’ve seen a lot of things that I can’t unsee.”

Well, I have already seen everything, which people usually don’t see on a normal basis. Even when I was drunk before….

I didn’t want to be with my brother either. What about Veronica?
