The Grand Duchess Is Defeated Again Today

The princess spouts water.

I loved visiting the Dukes of Valencia.

The most important reason for visiting the duke was to see Rebecca.

Besides seeing Rebecca, I had more reasons to visit the Dukes.

The fact that the dinner of the Dukes of Valencia was very good.

It wasn’t that Count Xernias’ cook couldn’t cook.

When I first ate at the Count’s after being possessed here, I was surprised at how delicious it was.

In the original, it was a family that did not originally exist, so I didn’t expect much in terms of food.

I was impressed by the skill of the chef, who lightly shot down my expectations.

But even the Count Xernias family who has an excellent cook. It was nothing compared to the family of the Dukes of Valencia.

After coming over to see Rebecca and having dinner by chance.

From that day on, whenever I visited the family of the Dukes of Valencia, I always had dinner before returning home.

– ·······Why do you have to go to dinner at my house?

Although Rebecca looked at me distastefully, who was always present at dinner.

– Why. After all, I’m someone who will become a family in the future, so how about going out for dinner?

– ······mother.

Each time, the Duchess was on my side, so I was able to finish dinner and go.

– Master… Now, my food doesn’t taste good…

Every time I visited the duke’s house, I had dinner, so I heard the voice of resentment from Charles, the count’s cook.

I’m sorry, Charles.

However, the cooks of the Dukes of Valencia are almost the best in the empire.

Anyway, every time I came to see the princess in this way, I had a pleasant dinner time.

“····.”

“Prince Albert, why aren’t you eating? Is your meal not good today?”

Today’s pleasant evening seemed to have disappeared far away.

***

“Usually, it was delicious. Today, it seems a little bad. Fire the cook right now.”

“No. It’s fine. It’s just that I’m feeling a little nauseous.”

The Duchess, who raised her body as if she was going to call a cook right away.

I quickly stopped and waved my hand.

It’s just that I’m uncomfortable right now, because dinner wasn’t that great.

‘······· As expected, I should have just gone.’

In fact, I had no intention of going out for dinner today.

The Duchess caught such an embarrassing scene earlier. Who the hell wants to go out to dinner in a situation like this?

But even though I didn’t want to go to dinner, I couldn’t help it.

– Confucius? Why are you leaving already? Have dinner as usual and go.

– I’m fine…

– It’s not the mother-in-law’s job to send her son-in-law back without even having dinner, so eat and go.

Because the Duchess nailed it to dinner.

It was still only engaged, so neither the son-in-law nor the mother-in-law were true.

At the piercing gaze of the Duchess, who seemed to say that there would be bloodshed if she didn’t go out for dinner.

I had no choice but to remain in the duke mansion.

‘······· Rebecca’s personality seems to come from…’

I felt like I had discovered the secret of the princess’s dirty personality.

I wasn’t the only one who felt uncomfortable with this place.

“····.”

Rebecca, who usually enjoyed dinner, was not eating properly.

The princess also seemed to want to get out of this place quickly.

“…we ate well…”

So Rebecca was trying to get out of this place without eating properly.

“Rebecca, haven’t you eaten much?”

“····.”

Sit down.

The duchess just grabbed her ankle.

The awkward dinner time passed little by little.

“I heard some interesting news earlier.”

Finally it has come

“You said my daughter kissed her fiance?”

“····.”

silence.

Silence was the only thing Rebecca and I could do in that interrogation.

It was like being the accused being interrogated by the judge.

“I couldn’t believe that, so I went to check it out…”

“····.”

After this, both me and Rebecca knew.

Because we both had good eye contact with the Duchess.

Because their eyes met properly and they were as hard as stones for 20 seconds.

What the Duchess would say next was roughly expected.

“Is Confucius kissing our daughter?”

puff.

I heard the sound of squirting water from the chair opposite me.

Perhaps he was drinking water because he was thirsty at the words that were coming closer and closer.

When those words came out, I couldn’t stand it and it seemed to burst out.

“I was very surprised.”

But the Duchess didn’t seem to mind at all, even though her daughter was spitting water.

Did the Duchess make her that way, or was she that way from the beginning?

There was no way to confirm that fact. One thing was certain.

It will never be easy to get out of this web-like interrogation.

“I didn’t know that our daughter and Confucius had already developed into such a relationship.”

Absolutely. It’s not like that yet.

It was just a chess bet penalty.

I wanted to say this, but it was like a chimney.

It was a bit like being 18 years old and doing something like betting on penalties, and to say that they weren’t in a relationship like that, the atmosphere the Duchess was exuding was unusual.

“So. When are you going to get married?”

puff.

This time I spit water.

The Duchess didn’t care about the squirting again this time, but I asked if I had heard something wrong.

“… did you say marriage…?”

“Yes. Marriage. Gradually, Rebecca and Confucius both reached a certain age, so shouldn’t we think about it?”

puff.

All I could hear was the sound of someone spewing water from the other side.

“······mother?”

The sudden appearance of the word “marriage” seemed to be the same for the public princess.

Because both me and Rebecca were too young to think about the important things of marriage yet.

Both the coming-of-age ceremony and the debut tang have not been held. you’re already married

It didn’t feel like it was too early, though.

“Why? I married your father when I was 17.”

“····.”

“I think it’s too late when you’re your age.”

The Duchess didn’t seem to think so.

However, if she didn’t refute that statement, she feared that the Duchess would hold the wedding date right away.

“The Duchess. It’s a disgraceful thing to say… Neither the Princess and I have had a coming-of-age ceremony yet, nor have we made our debut. I think the wedding is a bit early.”

nod-

Rebecca was nodding her head eagerly on the other side, as if thinking like me.

But.

“Is it true? Then it wouldn’t matter if both of them got married right after their debut and coming-of-age ceremony was over.”

It must have been the Duchess’s trap.

The Duchess took over naturally, as if she had expected me to say that.

“I think the debutant can be done both this spring… Prince Albert was born later than Rebecca, so we’ll have the wedding right after Prince Albert’s coming-of-age ceremony.”

“····.”

‘…were you planning everything?’

The ominous thought I had earlier seems to have been true.

If you were the Duchess, I think you would have already set the wedding date.

“Aren’t you both dissatisfied?”

“····.”

How do you answer that you are dissatisfied?

These words came up to my chin. I didn’t have the courage to spit it out.

To be honest, I didn’t attach much importance to marriage.

I don’t know if it’s because I’ve never been married before, or if it’s because I’m in love with Rebecca.

From the moment I found out I was engaged to Rebecca, I’d get married someday. I was thinking vaguely.

‘by the way…’

What I was worried about was Rebecca’s thoughts.

We’ve gotten to know each other a bit now, but it was Rebecca who said what he was looking at in the past when he first saw me.

Not only that, but it was Rebecca who expressed her desire to break up with me with her whole body.

If the princess was still thinking the same thing as back then, it was certain that the situation would become very uncomfortable.

It was true that I liked Rebecca, but I had no intention of forcing a marriage that the princess did not want.

Maybe if Rebecca still wants to break up with me.

I’m a little sad, but maybe I’ll let Rebecca go.

Wouldn’t it be best to send Rebecca away and wish her a happier life than anyone else?

Rebecca’s expression, who must have heard the same story as mine, was completely incomprehensible.

Rather, it would be possible to give up your heart early if it was clear on your face that you were dissatisfied with marrying me.

It would be possible to close our hearts early and widen our distance.

She was a princess who maintained her poker face in times like this.

When the mood is changing to a low pressure due to the gloomy thoughts that come up little by little.

“So, Prince Albert.”

“Yes?”

It was then that the Duchess’s bombshell was issued.

“Today, go to sleep in our Valencia Duke’s mansion.”

“······Yes?”

“Of course in Rebecca’s room.”

“······mother?”

Both me and the princess looked at the Duchess with blank expressions.
