In the venue, Clifton was still blushing, and Hazel was teasing him. Hazel was a little confused since Cordelia had returned alone, but Cordelia smiled back at her.
Im sorry to keep you waiting, now, Clifton-sama. Quickly go to the courtyard. At this rate, youll be misunderstood.
Huh?! What, Cordelia-san?
I would like to tell you that half-hearted words can deepen misunderstandings. Kaylie-sama misunderstood and took it the wrong way when you called her Jet Black. Please let her know with your words first rather than give her a present.
Clifton panicked when he heard Cordelia, but he understood her without her having to explain. He quickly left.
Thank you, Cordelia-sama.
He couldnt have imagined that he beca his own obstacle to love.
Oh my, did that happen? I could imagine what was going on from his reaction a while ago and I only saw it once.
Maybe there are tis when you dont notice things because youre too close.
But, in the end, Cordelia-sama was also involved in fulfilling their love, so why dont you take it as it went well?
Well, Im envious of them.
However, speaking of misunderstandings, Hazel-sama also misunderstood before
It might be difficult to prevent it, but Cordelia decided to listen to those around her as much as possible. Im being careful, but I have to be extra careful about my love that will co eventually She thought, but was that sothing she should ask people?
( Love is difficult after all.)
It doesnt always make ones heart pound and it isnt always calm.
Can I understand those feelings clearly? She thought and felt that it was difficult.
Say, Cordelia-sama. Can I visit the shop again so that I can hear more about this from Kaylie-sama?
Yes, of course. I look forward to seeing you there.
Cordelia was more concerned about the two who werent able to communicate very well with each other rather than her uncertain future.
???????
The day after the evening party at the Harshi House.
Cordelia showed up at the shop in the afternoon and could tell how yesterday went when their eyes t. Kaylie usually hid her eyes with her bangs, but they were visible today.
It was difficult to talk to Kaylie since she was working, but they finally had ti to talk after they finished cleaning the shop.
Cordelia-sama, hmm Thank you very much.
Youre welco. It looks like you two were able to clear your misunderstandings, Im glad.
Kaylie didnt need to say anymore and smiled.
Kaylie-sama, did you like yesterdays fragrance?
Ah, yes! Im going to give it back to you
I dont mind since I was planning on giving it to you from the start. Actually, this essential oil has the sa blend as that fragrance. If you dont mind, please take it. Its a thank you present for working so hard.
Eh, but
Congratulations.
Cordelia pushed it towards Kaylie and Kaylie smiled.
Thank you very much.
Please dont mind. Dont worry about taking a day off when you go on a date.
Eh h-hmm
Cordelia smiled at Kaylie who had turned red.
More importantly, you must be tired from yesterday. Ill take you ho.
Hmm, umm Im fine today. Ill be eting my mother.
You will? In that case, you have to hurry.
Kaylie probably was in a rush. She rushed out of the room after putting her tools away.
After a while when Cordelia thought about going ho too, she noticed a small pouch had been left on the desk.
Oh my, I wonder if she forgot this.
She usually only brings this with her, I wonder if she was in that much of a rush? It might not be a problem for her to find it here tomorrow, but she might panic if she thinks shes dropped it.
She hasnt gone far yet, has she?
I might be able to catch up to her if I chase after her now. Cordelia thought, and asked the female employees, who were cleaning, which way Kaylie went, then headed off in that direction. However, she couldnt find Kaylie even though the street was wide.
She thought she would at least see her figure and concluded that she must have gone in the opposite direction.
As she walked and looked around, a familiar voice entered her ears from a side path.
Say, was what I said wrong?
It was Shelleys voice.
Shelley was a noble, so it wasnt odd for her to be here, and her voice wasnt loud and conspicuous, but her irritating and oppressive voice didnt suit this place.
Cordelia secretly peeked into the path, and she saw Shelley and Kaylie.
Shelley was glaring at Kaylie, and Kaylie was looking down a little. Cordelia had heard about their relationship from Hazel, but this was the first ti she had seen the two together. And from what she could see from how Kaylie was acting; it was clear that they didnt have a good relationship.
You told that you didnt know what evening parties she was attending. But I heard from soone that you were at the sa evening party as her. What is the aning of this?
You told that you would tell about her once you got to know her, but you keep insisting that you know nothing about her. You actually know a lot of things about her, dont you?
She didnt look like a Heroine at all since she got more irritating with every word she said.
(More importantly, does this an that Shelley coerced Kaylie from the beginning?)
With Shelleys personality, she probably hounded Kaylie-sama a lot. But, Kaylie-sama still insisted that she didnt know anything.
Then, Kaylie looked up. Shelley was a little surprised by this.
I dont feel like your words are correct.
Shelley beca speechless for a mont because of Kaylies protest, but she imdiately retorted in a strong tone.
Why did you say that!? That woman will hurt His Highness and cause trouble for everyone, you know?! Dont say it like youre talking from a parents perspective, that woman!!
The enraged Shelley was like the in-ga Cordelia.
(Hatred would be the closest feeling that Shelley has towards .)
However, the words Shelley had said towards Kaylie were outbursts of anger towards Cordelia, and there was no need to drag Kaylie into sothing troubleso. Kaylie wasnt good at talking, so it was best for Shelley to keep quiet and let her pass.
Shelley didnt need to force herself to confront Kaylie, so Cordelia wished she had chosen not to bother Kaylie.
However, Kaylie continued to speak.
Ive always admired Cordelia-sama. Thats why I know she can do things that dont benefit her.
I didnt ask for your opinion. You know that youre receiving support from the Clydereine House, dont you?
Does that an that we should imdiately return the loan that we had received from Earl Clydereine?
What else would that an?
Shelley didnt realise that this was the sa behaviour as Cordelia which she had just ntioned before.
Kaylie quietly stared at Shelley, then nodded.
Okay.
Then
Its not sothing I can decide alone. But I will talk to my parents and ask them if the citizens will forgive us for lending money out until we were tricked.
About returning the money, we had to pay the servants wages, but you are one-sidedly changing the original contract even though this has nothing to do with it, so I hope you can wait for the money.
Does that an you dont trust after all?
Cordelia started walking when she heard Shelleys sharp tone.
Please leave it at that, Shelley-sama.
Y-you!
Kaylie-sama, Im here to deliver sothing you forgot.
Kaylie was puzzled at Cordelia who smiled, unfazed by Shelleys gaze.
Cordelia pushed the pouch onto Kaylie and looked straight at Shelley.
If you need sothing from , then co straight at . Having cards is also important for negotiations. You look like youre only threatening her, and I dont like it.
I Im not wrong! In the first place Isnt it because youre hiding your true self!? Youre the only person who didnt turn out like how you were in my dreams!
Shelley glared at Cordelia with her face bright red, and Cordelia lightly brushed her off. Cordelia also looked grim since her attitude didnt match the girl who was rumoured to be the Saint.
I dont know what youre thinking, but its wrong for you to bla Kaylie-sama for things such as attending evening parties.
What did you say?!
Shelley-sama. You said before that His Highness is your benefactor and you want to return his favour. Its your freedom to see as your enemy, but if you want to be useful to His Highness, then why dont you do sothing for him instead of trying to trick and deceive ?
Thats why Im doing this! But, in my dreams, youre always chasing after His Highness while wearing a red dress! You know what Im talking about, dont you!?
Ive never worn a red dress before in my life.
Shelley frowned deeper when she heard what Cordelia had said.
Rember this, Im going to expose your true self in front of everyone right now!
Shelley turned her hell and went back onto the main street.
(I guess its pointless since were not in front of people right now.)
But it was all the sa to Cordelia.
I dont think Shelley would agree with my advice, and Id rather she walk away rather than asking the sa questions over and over. It wasnt a clean break, but the result is good if I think about Kaylie-samas situation.
Cordelia looked at Kaylie and saw that her expression was stiff.
I, I was scared
Cordelia smiled gently at Kaylie who only seed scared now.
Thank you very much. Youve been protecting all this ti.
No, I I only acted like I didnt know anything.
Kaylie turned red and looked down.
I dont think Earl Clydereine would tear up the contract because of his daughters words If sothing does happen, then Ill be happy to help you. Im the reason youre in this situation in the first place.
No, hmm. Its not your fault.
Even if it isnt, I cant leave my friends alone if theyre in trouble.
If the loan was an amount that could be provided by the Clydereine House, then it was possible for the Paradia House to do the sa.
Her family assets werent sothing she could freely move, and there may be so conditions involved, but Elvis was likely to consider it if he knew that the citizens were troubled.
Kaylie laughed shyly at Cordelias words.
Actually It seems that the Hack House has also talked about helping with reconstruction.
Oh my, Clifton-sama did?
Yes Hmm, actually its embarrassing, but Clifton-sama how do I say this hes waiting for my reply. The outer moat is perfect, hmm hes also thinking about helping with reconstruction, and his family knows about it
What a scher is what I would like to say, but its his grievous mistake for making you misunderstand things.
No, he tried his best, but his efforts were fruitless. Cordelia prayed that they would receive good fortune for the bad things they had experienced until now, and Kaylie started panicking.
I-its not like that! Hmm, my family said it was because Im too dull
Oh my, thats a nice relationship.
Cordelia thought that her prayer was unnecessary.
After that, Cordelia sent Kaylie to where her mother was and then went ho herself.
Cordelia thought alone while in the carriage.
What happened to Kaylie-sama is a good thing.
But I underestimated Shelley too much, she reflected.
(I have to be careful, but I thought it would be fine as long as I dont engage her.)
Shelley believes in her dreams and thought she could use that to approach . But if shes using her position to take advantage of other peoples weaknesses, then I cant just wait for ti to pass.
This ans that I cant just avoid her all the ti.
If I delay this problem any longer, then it may affect others.
in a red dress, she said? If thats the case, why dont I wear it to play her ga?
