Whats wrong?
This is my first ti seeing a noble lady who doesnt have a noble society way of speaking as much as Lady Fiona.
Whoops, I almost spitted my tea out hearing that very straightforward remark.
Arrendt pretended he didnt see my face.
Youre really a person with the surna of Heilon.
He said that Abel and I looked alike in a very elegant way.
Suddenly, I rembered Abel bickering with the empress at that ball.
No, no way.
The people of Heilon have been the people who always show their actions rather than words, well theyre constantly on the battlefield anyway. So theres nothing we can do about it. Arrendt said.
I was not like him at all!
But Arrendt kept talking, not knowing my upset mind.
Its so awkward, so I recomnd that you just get to the point.
I think its a waste of ti to talk in a roundabout way.
Then, I hope there are no complaints later.
Im not that kind of person.
So, lets get to the point.
I handed over the papers I brought with .
What is this? Arrendt asked curiously.
Arrendt was in charge of the finance departnt. So, for him, those who were accumulating wealth through illegal activities were a pain in the neck. This was what I aid for.
I grinned.
Do you want to catch people who dont pay taxes together?
This was it. If the wealth has been accumulated in an illegal way, it could be confiscated without rcy. People not paying taxes was a headache, but when those people were caught, it was called hooray.
Arrendt, who had widened his eyes in surprise, smiled briefly.
Lady Fiona.
Yes?
I got a lot of offers from noble ladies. A suggestion to go play together or to drink tea together.
Of course, he would.
However.
Suddenly Arrendts face turned serious.
Did I do sothing wrong?
So far, of all the proposals to do sothing together, this is the one I like the most. Im so excited.
It seems that it has been quite difficult to run the finance departnt recently. Especially right now because of the expensive social season.
Ah, yes
Arrendt smiled with satisfaction while skimming through the docunts, not caring about my awkward reaction.
I accept that offer.

Arrendt Clovis promised to cooperate.
I imdiately went to Sigren to tell him this good news. Of course, since it was a secret matter, I called him to the Heilon mansion.
Sigren gave a genuine disapproving expression after hearing about my achievents.
How the hell did you convince Marquis Arrendt Clovis?
I grinned. A negotiation that makes my opponent flutter?
How did you do it?
Sigrens discontent look attracted . He must have imagined sothing useless when he heard the word flutter. He was jealous.
There was a flash of mischief in my brain. I smiled and leaned against him. I felt the solid body that supported stiffen. I whispered softly on purpose.
Are you really curious about that?
Fiona.
Wow, his low voice.
I kept my voice soft while barely holding myself from giggling.
Do you want to tell you how I did it?
I wanted to do what Livya did to the crown prince last ti, but I didnt think I could do it because that kind of sweet tone that lted the other persons ears was too much for . Instead, I grinned and stroked Sigrens cheek. Then slowly my fingers climbed down to his neckline.
Like this.
Sigrens eyes grew darker.
So scary.
Fiona, get your hands off .
.
I whispered while moving my fingers to his collarbone as if drawing a picture, totally ignoring him.
Also like this.
By then, Sigrens patience had reached its limit.
Fiona, you
I laughed. Of course I didnt, I just said I put my finger on his chin and grinned, Would you like to go catch people who dont pay taxes?
.
Sigrens expression was very spectacular after hearing my words. When my eyes t his, I couldnt help but laugh so hard. Imdiately, I got away from Sigren, and wrapped my hands around my stomach.
Ahahaha, your face is soo.
Only then did Sigren realize that I was teasing him, and he ground his teeth.
Are you having fun with this?
Yeah, so much fun!
Oh my god. I was really annoying, wasnt I?
You put in the palm of your hand and play with .
Well, because your reaction was so obvious..ahahaha!
I laughed again seeing Sigrens face.
As my laughter didnt stop, Sigren ruffled his hair wildly.
Stop laughing.
Im trying
Sigren raised one eyebrow while looking at . Since you have so much fun, should I show you sothing more obvious?
Sigren quickly shortened his distance from . In the blink of an eye, he stood in front of very closely. I opened my eyes widely and stepped back unconsciously. The wall touched my back. Sigrens both hands touch the wall behind .
Oh my god! I was stuck between him and the wall! I swear I didnt expect this drama-like situation to happen.
This posture is more convenient than I thought. First of all, because you cant run away.
I quickly adopted a docile attitude.
Okay, I wont tease you anymore.
Sigren pulled up one corner of his mouth. Dont you think its already too late?
Yeah I know. But wasnt regretting after committing cris part of human nature? Well, in my defense, his reaction was so funny!
Then Sigren slowly lowered his head.
As his lips slowly approached, only two options ca to my mind. Should I close my eyes or slap his face? But I didnt think either of them was bad! Undecided on either option, I closed my eyes and gently raised one of my hands to slap him on the cheek.
But Sigren, who was more agile than , grabbed my wrist.
Ah!
The soft touch of his lips was not on my lips, but on my cheeks.
I slowly opened my eyes. When our eyes t, Sigren let go of my wrist.
I felt resentful for so reason.
Uh-
That kissI shouldnt count chickens before they hatch. I felt so embarrassed.
Sigren grinned and poked my cheek.
Your face is blushing, Fiona.
He really gave back my words to .
I pushed his chest and threw the cushion at him.
Sigren laughed out loud after catching the cushion easily.
Hahaha so stop playing around.
He must be satisfied seeing my reaction.
Okay, I know!
Seeing him smile made my heart flutter.
I sighed.
Damn.
