Chapter 33

This was practically equivalent to Windsor’s direct lineage becoming a customer of a competitor!

Viscount Manus suppressed his fury and whispered to Danae.

“Lady Danae. Windsor Bank has plenty of gold coins too. If you need gold coins, please go to Windsor Bank.”

However, did she not notice?

Dana was still listening to the branch manager’s boasting.

“Hahaha! If the Lady needs gold coins, please come to Ritten Bank anytime! Ritten Bank’s gold coin reserves are the world’s best! They’re incomparable to Windsor Bank!”

“Yes. I’ll do that.”

Viscount Manus was devastated.

‘Duke! Why did you entrust such an important matter to such an immature heiress! I’m disappointed, Duke!’

An intense desire to resign surged up.

It seemed Duke Viego Windsor had lost his reason from doting on his sister too much.

Well, that type of person tends to go completely crazy once they become obsessed with something!

‘This won’t do. I should quit being a retainer here and throw in the towel.’

I should write a resignation letter or something. Viscount Manus made up his mind.

* * *

“What on earth are you doing!”

As soon as they left the bank, Viscount Manus protested.

“What do you think will happen when word of Miss’s actions spreads? Even Windsor’s direct lineage doesn’t use Windsor Bank! They use Ritten Bank! Ritten Bank’s credibility must be tremendous! That’s what people will think!”

Wait, but this young lady isn’t listening to me!

Dana was calling the handsome secretary who had been waiting in the carriage. Then.

“Lete. Withdraw 50 billion francs from my account at Windsor Bank. All in banknotes.”

“Yes, Miss.”

Viscount Manus’s mouth fell open.

What? How much did she just say?

50 billion francs?

“Lady! What are you doing?”

“Viscount Manus. I don’t have time. I’ll explain just once, so listen to me properly.”

“No! I don’t want to hear it! I’m writing my resignation letter right now—!”

“What I’m about to do is…”

A moment later, after hearing Dana’s entire story, Viscount Manus’s mouth fell open.

“That’s truly a brilliant idea, Lady! You really are the Duke’s sister!”

I believed in you, Duke!

* * *

Shortly after, Dana visited Ritten Bank once again.

“You’re here again?”

“Yes. I thought about it and realized I need more gold coins.”

At that moment, the branch manager suppressed his laughter.

Wasn’t Windsor’s direct lineage serving as a promotional tool for Ritten Bank!

‘Viego Windsor is more foolish than I thought. To let his sister do such stupid things.’

The branch manager shouted very loudly, hoping other customers would see this scene.

“Welcome, Lady Danae Windsor! How much shall we exchange for you this time?”

“Ah, wait a moment.”

When Dana gestured, staff members in black suits came walking in en masse.

The branch manager was startled.

‘What’s this?’

Thud. The staff placed black bags on the desk and disappeared.

“Th-this is…”

“Money bags. 100 billion francs total.”

Dana smiled sweetly.

“Please exchange them for gold coins right now.”

“Pardon?”

“I said exchange them for gold coins.”

The branch manager’s complexion hardened.

Could she be testing whether we have that many gold coins?

‘We do have that much.’

We’re the largest branch in the Empire, so wouldn’t we have at least that much?

The branch manager stood up confidently.

“Please wait a moment! I’ll bring them right away!”

That day, news that Danae Windsor had swept away all the gold coins from Ritten Bank Capital Main Branch became the talk of the capital city.

* * *

The next day, early morning.

“Dad, you saw the newspaper, right?”

Alice was having morning tea with Karl in her room.

“Why did Sister Dana do such a foolish thing.”

“Hm?”

“Sister ended up promoting Ritten Bank.”

“Ah. You mean that article.”

Karl put down his teacup and sighed.

“Dana is too naive. She probably just exchanged it because she needed it, but she didn’t know what consequences it would bring.”

“…Isn’t that being stupid?”

“No, no. Dana is just too pure, so she couldn’t grasp the complex interests involved.”

“…”

“That child is too kind. She thinks everyone else is as kind as she is. That’s the problem.”

Alice’s heart ached.

‘When I ruined the Moonlight Flower business, he called me foolish.’

He says such things without knowing anything.

‘Dad really doesn’t know anything.’

Alice was upset by this. Because she was the only one who knew Sister Dana’s wickedness.

No.

That’s not right, Miona knows too.

“Alice!”

Just then, Miona, who was entering the room, saw Karl and stopped. Karl smiled like the sun and waved his hand.

“Hello, Miss Miona. It’s another beautiful morning today.”

“Ah, y-yes, yes… H-hello, Lord Karl.”

Alice tilted her head.

Why is Miona blushing like that?

“I, I, I came because I have something to tell you.”

“Hm? What is it?”

However, Miona couldn’t speak and watched Karl’s expression carefully.

Ah. She’s uncomfortable because of dad.

‘Well, he is the biological father of the young lady she serves, so it would be uncomfortable for her as a maid.’

Alice felt quite sorry for Miona and smiled graciously at her.

“It’s okay, Miona. Speak comfortably.”

“Well.”

Miona hesitated for a moment, then whispered quietly in Alice’s ear.

“I heard from a maid that some noble’s young master sent a letter to sister Dana. It seemed like a love letter…”

At that moment, Karl roughly set down his teacup.

“What did you say, Miss Miona? Could you say that again?”

“Y-yes?”

“What did you just say Dana received? From whom?”

Alice smiled weakly at the flustered Miona.

Miona.

Our dad has really sharp hearing.

[I have admired you for a long time.]

What’s this?

‘Justin Lancaster… isn’t he Noah’s classmate?’

[I’m worried that His Highness the Crown Prince might find out, but I still cannot hide my burning feelings for you…]

[You are my first love.]

[Could you please become my last love as well?]

“Oh my. Look at this boy.”

Pfft, I couldn’t help but laugh.

Maybe because I thought of it as a letter from a seventeen-year-old boy? It was kind of cute.

‘He seems quite fearless too.’

Of course, the current Lyos probably wouldn’t care whether I received such letters or not.

‘But still, to send such a letter knowing all the tyranny Lyos has committed until now.’

Was it two years ago?

Lyos had broken all the fingers of a count’s young master who had sent her a love letter.

‘Then he just gave the count’s family compensation money and ended it there.’

After that crazy incident, the love letters stopped completely.

The only thing I’d received recently was that disgusting letter from Juan…

But maybe it was because I broke up with Lyos.

It seemed like brave men who heard the rumors were slowly approaching.

‘I shouldn’t reply.’

At that moment, the door burst open.

A blonde boy walked in with a terrifyingly frozen expression.

“Noah?”

The next moment, smack!

A newspaper flew at my face.

“What is this?”

“…”

Dana picked up the newspaper that had hit her face and fallen, then spread it open.

‘So he got this angry after seeing this.’

Well, Noah is also a member of the family, so it’s understandable.

When Dana lifted her head to say something.

“…”

Noah was bending down to pick something up.

“Ah, that’s.”

It’s the love letter from Justin Lancaster.

Noah quietly read the love letter, then let out a laugh.

“You’re completely obsessed with men.”

…What?
