37.
It was three months ago from now.
It was when Castillian, who had been receiving education from Chase, briefly came to the Imperial Palace to report that he was alive.
“Brother, brother!”
That day too, Edel was stuck right next to Castillian.
It was a sight befitting a ‘brother’s shadow.’
Edel, happy to see his brother after a long time, kept talking without pause.
“Brother, what’s it like outside the palace? Are there tons of people? There must be more than the nobles who come to the Imperial Palace for balls, right?”
“….”
“I’m curious what the city looks like. Is it lively, sparkling with lights, and bustling like the rumors say?”
Even when Castillian didn’t answer well, he didn’t give up.
Then he suddenly became curious.
‘What kind of person is the woman brother likes?’
That problematic ‘woman’ who made his well-behaved brother wander outside the palace.
“Brother.”
“….”
“What does the woman who stole your heart look like?”
“…Cough!”
Castillian, who had been drinking water, started coughing as soon as he heard the blunt question.
It went down the wrong way.
“Cough, cough.”
“Brother…! Are you okay?”
Edel hurriedly patted Castillian’s broad back.
Even while doing so, he didn’t realize how explicit his question had been.
A little later, Castillian, who had finally calmed down, spoke.
“Curious?”
Edel nodded his head like a nutcracker.
“Yes! Very much so!”
Castillian, enduring the sparkling gaze pouring onto his face, slowly replied.
“…She has ash-colored hair and golden eyes. She’s not particularly flashy. She’s neat and modest.”
“….”
“But… that modesty is beautiful.”
From that day until now, those words had been a mystery to Edel.
A woman whose modesty is beautiful.
‘What does that mean?’
Edel, who had been watching Siena, unconsciously opened his mouth.
“…Huh!”
That’s right, that’s it!
‘I now perfectly understand what brother meant!’
Siena was modest yet beautiful.
No, she was beautiful because she was modest.
“Wow.”
A smile instantly spread across Edel’s lips.
‘I found her, my sister-in-law.’
She’s exactly as brother described…!
Edel grabbed the armrest of his chair and started wiggling his bottom restlessly.
“Ah, uh…, what do I do! Ha! Uah!”
He even made strange sounds.
He couldn’t contain his joy at meeting the ‘sister-in-law’ of his dreams.
‘Sister-in-law! My sister-in-law!’
Pitt, who had been hunched over, conscious of the fact that he was sitting next to a prince, turned his head.
“…Your Highness, are you uncomfortable somewhere?”
Edel shook his head vigorously.
“No!”
“Pardon?”
“I’m so happy! I’m so happy my legs are trembling!”
Pitt blinked with a dazed expression.
He had no idea what had suddenly made Edel so happy.
Indeed, he looked five times more excited than when he entered the banquet hall.
‘His Highness is… truly peculiar.’
Even though Pitt had been serving Edel for 15 years now, he still didn’t understand Edel as a person.
Edel, who had been doing a shoulder dance, suddenly realized.
‘Oh, that’s right.’
She’s someone who will become my sister-in-law, but she’s not my sister-in-law yet.
‘So I shouldn’t make it obvious.’
Edel didn’t want to burden Siena.
However, he wanted to make a good impression on her within the bounds of courtesy.
‘I want to score points with my future sister-in-law in advance!’
Edel patted Pitt’s thigh repeatedly.
“Pitt, Pitt.”
“Yes, Your Highness. That hurts.”
“Look at me for a moment.”
Then he suddenly smiled broadly.
Confusion appeared on Pitt’s face.
“Why…, why are you doing that?”
“How is it? How do I look?”
Edel blinked while showing all his even teeth.
Pitt rolled his eyes for a moment.
“Uh….”
“….”
“You look happy.”
“Really? Great!”
Edel clenched his fist.
‘If I give her a smile filled with happiness, I’ll be able to score points with sister-in-law!’
So Edel once again made eye contact with Siena.
A ‘grinning smile’ was on his lips.
‘Unknown sister-in-law, nice to meet you!’
My name is Edel!
‘I like you, sister-in-law! Why, you ask? Because you’re my sister-in-law!’
Please take care of me!
But… unfortunately, reality wasn’t so kind.
“…What?”
Siena didn’t understand his intention even a tiny bit.
She was just bewildered.
‘Why is the Second Prince smiling at me?’
Something feels unsettling….
‘Did I do something wrong?’
She, who had been moving stiffly like a robot, eventually averted her gaze.
Then Edel’s lips pouted.
“Huh…?”
Why is sister-in-law avoiding my eyes?
‘Does she not like me?’
…Edel had no idea at all.
That Castillian was disguised as ‘Lian de Vicelle’ while hiding his true identity.
Meanwhile, the employees moving around the banquet hall also witnessed the Second Prince’s strange behavior.
“…Huh?”
Heaven, who had been staring blankly at Edel while forgetting to carry the plates, came to his senses.
He approached Isadora, who happened to be passing by.
“Dora.”
“Stay two steps away when you speak so it doesn’t look suspicious. Don’t forget to manage your gaze and use ventriloquism.”
Isadora habitually brought her middle finger to the bridge of her nose.
Then, realizing she wasn’t wearing glasses, she dropped her hand.
Heaven lowered his voice and whispered.
“No, did you see it too? His Highness the Second Prince, I mean.”
“I saw it.”
“Why is he smiling while looking at the Center Director? I thought I was seeing things at first.”
Heaven tilted his head sideways and scratched the back of his neck.
Soon after, he clapped his hands together softly.
“Ah! I got it.”
“…”
“It seems like His Highness has fallen for the Center Director. Right?”
Isadora quietly stared at Heaven.
Already expressionless, she looked even more cold than usual.
Finally, Isadora spoke up.
“…Sometimes I wonder how Heaven Delgado managed to get hired at the Center.”
“Huh? Well, the CEO picked me.”
Heaven gestured toward one side of the banquet hall.
There stood the Center’s CEO, Chase Willow.
“Kyaa! Baron Aizet!”
“Chase…, Chase! Please look at me!”
Of course, surrounded by women as usual today too.
Isadora, who was taking in the chaotic scene, twitched her eyebrow.
‘How noisy.’
She passed by Heaven and coldly warned him.
“Stop making me talk about useless things and focus on the mission. I can’t afford to miss the incentive.”
Isadora walked out to organize the central table.
Heaven’s words from earlier were spinning around in her mind.
“Why is he smiling while looking at the Center Director?”
Though she acted cold and uninterested, Isadora was curious too.
‘Why did His Highness the Second Prince smile at the Center Director.’
Her black eyes slowly rolled toward the nobility seating area.
Edel was still looking at Siena.
With eyes full of things to say, brimming with emotion.
“Hmm…”
Isadora, who had been watching Edel, was certain.
‘His Highness definitely didn’t fall for the Center Director.’
She had encountered too many people who were in love with someone.
Edel looked completely different from those people.
‘But then again, it doesn’t seem like His Highness the Second Prince and the Center Director know each other either.’
That made sense since Siena’s reaction was too lukewarm for them to be acquainted.
Even now, she was turning her head away, finding Edel’s gaze burdensome.
‘Then…’
Isadora’s mind whirred like a machine that had been fueled.
Just then, noisy sounds came from behind.
“…Baron!”
“Baron Aizet, please listen to me. Yesterday we…”
“Sir Chase Willow!”
It was the commotion created by the women who liked Chase.
As Chase began to move, they swarmed and followed him.
Isadora’s eyes sharpened.
“…This wasn’t the time to be standing around here.”
She had to escape before encountering the buffalo herd.
Isadora figured out Chase’s route and quickly walked to the opposite side.
Meanwhile, Chase, leading his fan club, headed toward a corner of the ballroom.
Toward the slender figure in a golden dress.
A moment later, he stopped and opened his mouth.
“Siena.”
