"Well... can I really be this happy...?"
After receiving Charlotte’s kiss, following Yulia’s, the happiness I felt in one day was enough to last a lifeti.
I wondered if there could be such a thing as a toxic dose of happiness, and if so, the fear that I would surely die soon overwheld .
If that’s the case, shouldn’t I face so appropriate misfortune to balance this happiness?
Just as that thought crossed my mind, I glanced at the mirror and realized that I was already being hit with enough misfortune on a daily basis.
With this face of mine, it was no wonder that I could survive a happiness that far exceeded its toxic limit.
Had I been possessed by soone like Aslan Vermont just for this reason?
It seed that my tragic fate could sotis be of help, and that thought sent a shiver down my spine.
"No. Why are you already doing a report again, sister...?"
Among the pile of docunts on the desk, I found a report from Vermont Investnt Corporation, which caught off guard.
Hadn’t a report been submitted last week?
Why another one...?
I tilted my head in confusion and opened it.
I’ve taken all your shares in Vermont Investnt Corporation, so just accept it.From now on, publicly declare as a traitor to the Vermont family and [N O V E L I G H T] have erased from the family register.I’ll also discard the Vermont family na.I am no longer a mber of the Vermont family. Do you understand?My vision darkened, and my head began to throb.
An outright declaration of embezzlent.
The intent was all too clear.
Expelling from the family and erasing from the family register, then marrying a distant relative.
This was a tactic commonly used by old imperial families and nobles when they wanted to marry within their own families.
I never expected that Irene would suddenly use this thod.
"Could Irene be rushing because of Yuri’s proposal...?"
This wasn’t the sister I knew.
She was always the one who remained calm, subtly pressuring with her thods.
How had she ended up like this?
A sigh escaped my lips.
"But... I don’t really care if she confiscates my shares...?"
The real problem was that Irene’s threat wasn’t very effective.
There were no significant assets tied up as collateral in the investnt corporation, and all the other businesses had been turning a profit for a long ti, with steady cash flow every month.
So for at least the next 20 years, I could leave everything to Irene without worrying.
Still, if I ignored her, Irene would likely co back with sothing far worse.
She might bring a truly troubleso threat, so I had to respond appropriately here.
"Maybe I should denounce Irene and declare her expelled from the family...?"
Wouldn’t this ruin Irene’s reputation?
No worries.
Once the news broke, everyone would imdiately think, "Oh, they’re doing that again," and understand my intentions quickly.
"And I should start looking for a chance to spread the word about my possession of Aslan’s body."
Although Irene and I were technically related by blood, emotionally, we were more like strangers.
It was a bizarre situation — a case of incest that wasn’t exactly incest.
So, if I revealed that I had transmigrated into this world, I could avoid so of the strange defamation.
After all, all my major relationships had ford after my possession, and once people knew, they’d likely even welco the truth. It wasn’t a risky move.
Of course, Aslan's father, who was lying in his coffin, would cry tears of blood.
But that wasn't my concern, so I decided not to worry about it.
"Why is the Empress so quiet, though...? It's making nervous."
At this point, I would have thought the news about Yuri’s proposal had reached the palace by now.
But the fact that the Empress wasn’t reacting at all was strangely unsettling.
Considering the mountain of gifts I had received last ti, the silence made so anxious I could feel my hands shaking.
"Is it unsettling that Her Majesty the Empress is silent, but it's not that unsettling for to remain quiet?"
"...!"
At that mont, with a smooth sound, Sylvia appeared from the shadows and gave a disappointed look.
...How long had she been in this room?
"Have you been hiding and watching everything?"
"I’m a bodyguard, so it’s my duty to observe."
"You sneaky thing."
"I don’t want to hear that from the head of the family."
This was shocking.
She had been secretly watching kiss Yulia and Charlotte and pretending not to notice.
To think that I had been raising such a sneaky and disgusting person.
What a ridiculous situation.
"Do you think the head of the family would understand how I felt, having to watch Yulia and Charlotte kiss you in succession?"
"Well, you could’ve just co out in the middle of it."
"Interrupting isn’t a virtue. I waited patiently and quietly, so now I’m asking for my reward."
"A reward, huh? What do you want?"
[The evil god 'Kalri' nods, agreeing that our bodyguard deserves a reward.]
She wasn’t asking for retirent, was she?
"Fairly, I want a kiss too..."
"Hey, hey, hey. Hold on a second."
Sylvia imdiately leaned towards and climbed onto my lap.
Half of my vision was blocked by her heavy body, and I could feel the weight of her bottom pressing against my knee.
If you are reading this translation anywhere other than Novelight or SilkRoadTL, it has been stolen.
My mind was flooded with fear, as if I were facing a life-threatening situation.
As Sylvia’s face ca closer, just as I was about to be suffocated, I heard a creak, and she fell back off the chair.
I exhaled deeply, relieved to escape the terror that had enveloped .
"Is that how much you hate it?"
"It’s not that I hate it... How should I put it? It’s like a reflex, sothing beyond my control."
"Hmm... Then, I guess you want to do it in the appearance of a child?"
"Wait. Stop right there. Maybe it’s better to do it this way."
Sylvia, with a blunt expression, was about to remove her aura, but I quickly stopped her.
To have an adult woman turn into a child just to kiss her?
That would be like crossing a river with a jet ski — irreversible.
No matter how I thought about it, my conscience and ethics would be in shambles, and I couldn’t allow that.
"Then, I’ll wait here. It seems like you’re afraid of getting too close."
"..."
Sylvia kneels gracefully on the floor and slowly closes her eyes, looking up at .
Half of my vision was still filled with her massive chest, but seeing her quiet deanor made feel slightly less scared.
"Ugh..."
As I brushed her hair back and held her cheek, Sylvia flinched and trembled.
So, was this her first kiss too?
Seeing her nervousness made relax.
"Ugh...!"
I bent down and kissed her at an angle.
I could feel Sylvia’s trembling pass through her lips.
Though we were both nervous and clumsy, it felt slightly different from the reactions of Charlotte or Yulia.
Instead of staying still, Sylvia pressed her lips closer, inching in for more.
"Mmm!?"
Just as I was about to pull back, Sylvia’s rough hand grabbed the back of my neck and forcefully pulled in.
[The evil god 'Kalri' cheers for our bodyguard’s efforts.]
Breathing heavily, the sound of saliva mixing and sloshing between our lips filled the air.
Taking advantage of the confusion, Sylvia’s tongue began to push its way into my mouth.
"Ugh...!"
"Well, I think we’ll stop here for today."
At that mont, Sylvia smiled faintly and released my neck.
I staggered back, letting out a desperate sound as though I were a fragile princess about to lose her chastity.
It seed like Sylvia was enjoying my reaction even more.
"Honestly, I wanted to go a few more steps forward right now... But I can’t rush things too much, it wouldn’t be fair to the children. I’ll try to pace it out a bit more."
"..." "I think it’s better for your mind and body, head of the family."
Sylvia slowly wiped her lips with a handkerchief and stood up with a calm expression.
Had she been generous?
If she hadn’t been, what would have happened to right now?
Just imagining it made my groin tingle, and a chill ran down my spine.
Considering the children still had 3 to 5 years to grow, I thought that spending this ti with Sylvia, having fun and passing the days, might not be the best for their education.
I couldn't help but feel grateful for Sylvia’s patience.
"I’ll try to match the pace with the children as much as I can... But if you take the lead, I guess there’s nothing I can do."
"...?"
"Yes. It can’t be helped. I don’t want it, but if you really want it... I’ll accept it without complaint. After all, I’m nothing more than your servant."
"..."
Ah, had I misjudged her?
Rather than patience, it seed like she had simply beco aroused...?
