“Ange.” Otou-sama’s voice was gentle. This was rare. Prince Lambert and Nico put their smiles back onto their faces and stood up.
“Oh, Your Highnesses, you two are here.”
The person nad Ange looked gentle and pleasant, and she laughed as if she was having fun. Then, she bent her knees and curtsied beautifully. This was an adult’s greeting. It was sothing that I wasn’t taught as an Albans because there were no won around. I’ll rember it. The lady had light brown hair that looked like tea with lots of milk, and her jade eyes looked like green tea with a hint of milk.
“Prince Nicholas, it’s been a long ti.”
“Hmm. Angelique-dono. I haven’t seen you since my birthday.”
Can Nico really rember an adult who he t six months ago? I was impressed. But well, I still rember the face of the guy who kidnapped .
“Thank you for rembering. Please co to my daughter’s birthday as well.”
She stroked his head gently as if he was a good boy. I pricked my ears up when I heard she had a daughter. I might be able to make so girl friends.
“I don’t know about that. I’m not friends with the Remington girl,” Nico said bluntly. He’s a smart child, but he wasn’t considerate. The adults froze. This kid, honestly.
“You are younger than my daughters. Then, please beco friends with them if it’s alright with you. I’ll introduce them to you again. This is my oldest daughter, Felicia. She’s the Remington heir.”
What? I can’t believe her daughter was right next to her. Felicia was a slender girl who looked like Ange. She curtsied beautifully like her mother. She seed to be the sa age as Gill, or older.
“This is my youngest, Christine.”
Christine had the sa milk-tea coloured hair like her mother, but her eyes were the sa milk-tea colour. It was really rare. She was a little bigger than Nico but smaller than Amy. So, she should be around five? The girl bent her knees a little awkwardly.
“Hmm. I’ve already t them before, so you don’t need to introduce them again. Anyway...”
Nico looked at . I was enjoying the scene as a spectacle, so I panicked when their attention was drawn to .
“Today is Lei’s birthday. You should congratulate her first.”
A strange aura floated through the place. Nico had clearly pointed out what the adults were thinking but dared not say. I didn’t know how to pacify the situation either, so I behaved cutely and left it to the adults.
“Well, it’s true. Dear .”
Ange laughed again, then bent down and turned towards . Her jade eyes were looking at .
“You have the sa violet eyes as Dean.”
It was as if she was saying that was all I was worth.
“How cute. I’m Angelique Remington. This is my heir, Felicia, and this is Christine. Please get along well with them,” she introduced and pushed her two daughters in front of . I have to greet them properly too.
“I’m Leiwa Awbansh. Thanw you for coming thoday.”
Then, I quickly bent my knees. This should look better than before. Near , Hans nodded as if I did a good job, but I don’t need his approval.
“Oh, I’m Felicia. Happy birthday. It’s nice to et you,” the older sister smiled and said.
“Fewicia. I’m Lei.”
“Fufufu.”
She rubbed my head. However, the younger sister glared at with her arms folded. Isn’t she so proud, being able to fold her arms properly? If she’s not going to say anything, then I’ll say sothing.
“Chrishthine.”
“Wait! It’s Christine!”
That’s what I said, wasn’t it?
“Chrishthine.”
“It’s Ch-ri-st-ine!”
She cares about the details. Then...
“Chrish.”
“That’s too short!”
“I’m Lei.”
“Are you listening to ?”
“Otou-syama, juice.”
“Hey!”
If she’s not going to say happy birthday to , then I don’t need to pay attention to her.
“Chris, you’re the one who’s not saying happy birthday to her.”
“But, Nee-sama...”
“No buts. Now, say it.”
Felicia told Christine off, and Christine looked at .
“Happy birthday.”
“Chrishthine.”
“Fine! You can call Chris. It sounds better.”
I won and smiled.
“Chrish, I’m Lei.”
Chris reluctantly looked at and turned a bit away before saying, “... Lei.”
“Ai!”
We’re friends now.
“You’re as pushy as ever, Ange.”
“Oh my, Julia. You ca too?”
A new person approached. She was a beautiful person with brown eyes and wavy brown hair.
“Dean, thanks for inviting . And, oh my, you’re Leila, aren’t you?! You’re just like I’ve heard you are. You look like Claire.”
“Okaa-sama, you were here? I was looking for you.”
Gill quickly ca this way.
“I wanted to say hello together.”
“I’m sorry.”
This person also laughs pleasantly. Then, she looked at and smiled.
“I’m Julia, Gill’s mother. I’ve always wanted to et you but didn’t get the chance. I’m sorry.”
She hesitated a little before reaching out to .
“You’re not a baby anymore, so I wonder if you don’t like it.”
That’s not true. I reached out to her, and she gently lifted up.
“Oh my, girls are soft. Gill wouldn’t be able to stay still.”
She laughed while holding , and gently swayed . That’s right, this is a mother. I relaxed and put my face near her neck.
“Juwia-obasyama1).”
“Oh my. That’s right. Lei.”
“Ai.”
“You should say that to Ange too.”
I looked at Remington. The sides of her lips twitched.
“Ange-obasyama.”
“Leila, people usually call Ange-sama.”
Sotis, people don’t want to be called Oba-sama. Then, I’ll call you what you want to be called. When I tried to correct this.
“You’re despicable, Ange. You’re older than . Honestly, and you still don’t want to be called Oba-sama? If Felicia gets married, then you would be an obaa-sama, not an oba-sama.”
“Obaa-sama?!” Ange muttered in shock. Mm, Julia-obasama is so strong.
“You guys get along like always. You’re talking about such nice things.” Otou-sama interrupted as if he was impressed. Both Julia-obasama and Ange-obasama’s lips were warped, but he didn’t notice.
