The Abandoned Empress Chapter 33

Chapter 33: Chapter 33

The boy stamred, very nervously. I thought he was cute at that mont.

At first he reminded of soone in my past life, and now I don’t recall him anymore when I found him at a loss what to do.

“Oh, I don’t know! I was born like this from the beginning. Let just talk informally to you. If you are uncomfortable about it, just complain formally.”

“Okay. Then, can I complain to your father formally? ”

“Oh, no way!”

“Why not? As a mber of a noble family who values honor, you don’t want to retract what you have promised , right?”

“Dang it! Yeah, go ahead if you want. I’m ready!”

When I saw the boy muttering with his head down, I burst into laughter.

It was the first ti I had a hearty laugh like that. I really felt refreshed to hear that.

As I was obsessed with thinking that I should act with dignity as the crown prince’s fiancée, I always smiled silently according to the imperial manners, so I have never laughed like this once.

“Wow! You know how to laugh, huh?”

“…”

“Why are you so serious? What’s wrong?”

I hurriedly changed my expression when he stared at with his eyes wide.

He mumbled sothing then said, clearing his throat, “Hey!”

“Yes, go ahead.”

“As we have apologized to each other, I think we have reconciled with each other, right?”

“So what?”

“So… You can co back to my house from now on.”

I smiled at him when he said it casually.

“Well, I don’t have to go to your house, but…”

“Huh, why? Did you give up? Huh? Are you quitting fencing that you wanted to learn so much? ”

“I never said that.” I replied calmly to him when he asked nervously.

After taking a deep breath, he asked again, “Then, why are you not going to co to my house? Are you still angry?”

“No, what I an is I don’t have to practice with you any more.”

“What are you talking about?”

“Sir Seymour decided to coach . I just hope I won’t be a burden to him as I’m lacking in skills.”

“Sir Seymour? Are you talking about that royal knight?” He said with a frown, adding, “Why is he protecting you? You are not a mber of the imperial family, right?”

“… Well, I’m nominally a royal family mber.”

“Nominally? Are you sure?”

“Yes, yes, I am. Did you not know that? ”

“Oh, I heard that the crown prince’s fiancée is the only daughter of the Monique family. So, that daughter is you, right?”

“… ”

“Got it… Damn it.”

Tracing his mory, he slurred and beca silent as if he finally rembered the fact.

I was silent, too, but shortly afterwards, he said with a frown, scratching his head, “Well, it doesn’t matter. As my father ordered to coach you, I can’t ignore it. So, let’s do it like this. You keep letting him coach you. Instead, I will co over here.”

“Are you going to co here?”

“Yes. I would like to see how good that knight’s fencing skills are, and if I feel I need to learn from him, I would like to learn while watching him.”

“… ”

“Okay, hope I’m in great hands!”

I sighed at his casual remarks. He should learn how to behave himself, but it was hopeless for to expect that. When he grinned at casually after declaring he would co to my training field, I suddenly felt a headache. I missed the peaceful afternoons that I used to enjoy without anybody’s interference.
