“If Murray really gets better, he will proceed with a full contract after that and we will make his brother the second one to be healed.”
Now that Murray’s situation was over, the two of them met today to draw up the contract.
Gerald gestured at the papers on the table. “Let’s stop signing now.”
“……the obvious. It’s an honor to work for Nigrum, for the real God.”
“God will be happy to be with you, too.” Gerald smirked.
And Gerald took Brenti’s hand. No, he was glad he could catch his weakness. Gerald was the only one who could save Brenti’s brother.
Brenti would never approach Louella again. Gerald also felt a sense of crisis and jealousy of his only favorite date. How could Brenti, whom Gerald knew his weakness, go against him?
A letter resembling Brenti’s sincerity was put on the contract.
* * *
An invitation letter came from the Crown Prince. It was all about certain topics. The museum will be reopened. It was about wanting Louella to become the diamond, the star of the night.
Did this invitation-only come to me, or did it go to Gerald as well? She tapped her finger on the invitation.
“It must be true that His Highness the Crown Prince is interested in you.” The maids laughed.
Such rumors were spreading in society. Of course, it was because she was perfect and pretty. But it was after she had promised Gerald not to be close to the Crown Prince that this invitation had arrived.
She did everything she needed to check with the Crown Prince. The fact that the Crown Prince instigated Philias’ death. And the fact that he would have benefited from it.
Knowing that White Uroboros and temples were involved in Nisephor, the Crown Prince would have done nothing. That the Imperial Family may have contributed to the illness, of course.
No, what’s wrong with people who have died of illness all this time? What do you get out of doing things like that? She gave a deep sigh.
“Are you going to accept his invitation?” The maids chatted like larks and asked the lady.
“I have to go.”
“Oh my god.”
“Then what about Mister Gerald!”
“He didn’t say I shouldn’t bring anyone. I just got an invitation. It’s up to me to choose who to go with.”
“Are you going to take Gerald there?”
“There’s no law that states that I should not do that, right?” Louella shrugged her shoulders.
Usually, it’s supposed to be acceptable, but it’s customary. If I go with Gerald, it’ll be a proper answer.
“I should ask what Gerald is doing.”
“……Wait a minute, miss.”
“Why?”
“I see Gerald a lot these days”
“What’s that?”
There was something stabbing in her chest, so she turned her head and coughed. The maids stared at her suspiciously.
“Are you dating these days?” I swallowed my saliva.
“You said you didn’t like him so much?”
“Hmmm…” Louella used to do that a lot in the past, but there was nothing for her to say the same thing right now.
She had to experience how hard it was to spend her entire marriage doing unnecessary things and her self-esteem fell to rock bottom. Gerald was really at fault then.
“I’m glad you like it. So you’re getting engaged now? No, marriage, right?”
“I haven’t seen my older brother’s, Alexid’s marriage yet!”
“Oh. You must be thinking about getting married already then.” The maids asked, their eyes twinkling.
Louella promised Gerald three nights, but she had already verified everything so it was fine.
Gaynor, my son. It was never like that. Haha. Do you think I can enjoy my honeymoon in the future? Of course, I had the idea of getting married. My simple dream was to live a life without a wolf-like husband and rabbit-like children.
As long as Gerald does as he is now and I recover from my illness, I think I could achieve such a thing. The verification I hoped for was actually that as well. I will no longer leave myself alone at night, and cooperate to make a normal and happy family.
In fact, as Alexid said, it was not easy to meet a man such as Gerald when I tried to meet other men. Indeed, he was a unicorn and a terribly pure lover who never looked at other women.
He did not like drinking too much or smoking too much as well. After one problem was solved, he began to look like a perfect unicorn again.
“……Marriage, you have to.”
It was this easy to overturn such a decision. It wasn’t this easy. Why are you getting so weak with him?
