As Lilia had yet to fully recover and Albert died, Lilia frequently spaced out. That was why I had Ross stay with her. Once Lilia was feeling better physically and ntally, I told Ross to bring her over. I had to head back first for my wedding. Due to the course of things, I figured I should plan the wedding, too.
Who sent this? Why did soone send us money? I pointed to the chest of gold coins before .
Simple. Because you and Veirya are getting married, people are sending you gifts. There are so relatively creative ones. Otherwise, they just sent gold coins. I must say, they have no taste whatsoever. Who sends a chest of gold coins as a wedding gift? responded Angelina, with her arms folded.
Despite Angelina complaining, I could tell that she loved the mountain of gold coins, not that I was surprised. Having a house but no money in the imperial capital wouldnt do. My company and factory wouldve earned sothing by this point, as well, which conveniently fit the timing of my wedding.
Is everyone getting used to life here? I asked while carefully placing the coins back.
Do the elves not want to live here? I havent seen Anna, either. Anna must be feeling awkward here since we dont need her care anymore. Surely Leah likes Anna more than the mother maids, though, given she was the first to join us, I mulled.
I guess everybody is getting along all right. The elves dont leave, but theyve also refused to let the maids take care of them. Anna is unable to handle the awkwardness. Despite Veirya saying that Anna could stay, Anna is struggling to co to terms with it. Whether she stays or not will be on you. All you have to do is convince her to not worry and stay.
I nodded. Then, I heard a ruckus from the front. As I thought, it was Leahs excited voice. Papa is back!! Is Papa back?!! Leah heard Papa is back! Wheres Papa?! Wheres Papa? I heard upon arriving in the main hall.
Leah cheerfully ran over to hug . I scrubbed her head with a smile and kissed her cheek. Yes, Leah, Papa is back! Papa wont go running around again, Leah. We can stay here in peace from now!
Leah kissed on the cheek then took my arm. Oh, she also turned to flash Veirya a smug grin. It was my first ti seeing Veirya with make-up on. The sapphire necklace rested on those magically engineered mountains and accentuated her blue dress. Had Leah not clung to my arm, Id have gone and hugged Veirya. Anyway, I took in a big breath to suppress my excitent and said, Veirya, Im back.
Uhm. Veirya was so calm that it was as though I never left or I just went out for two or three days. However, it made feel awkward.
Look, I understand that you dont wear expressions, but its perfectly normal for you to react in this sort of situation, right? At the very least At the very least you should give a hug and kiss, right? Angelina isnt even my lover; shes my lovers mother, yet she kissed , so why dont you?! Woman, you are frustrating ! Do I have to be more assertive or sothing? Uhh I think Im supposed to take the initiative since Im a man, I told myself.
I went to grab Veiryas hand, but she just nimbly zipped past to gracefully and calmly ascend the stairs. The maid and steward looked at each other, confused as to how Veirya was there when she was with a mont ago. Id surmise Angelina deceived them, claiming herself to be Veirya, and they fell for it as I wouldve. Nevertheless, I didnt have ti to think about all of that trivial stuff. Stunned, I watched Veirya. I had no clue what happened.
Have our feelings for each other faded? We were apart for only twenty days. Thats a short amount of ti separated than when we were in the North. Actually, she wanted to protect back in the North. Shes behaving as if shes forgotten now
What exactly happened while I was gone? Veirya Veirya went out daily. I wasnt with her The nobles were sweet-talking machines who practiced daily with the succubi. Veirya is still a very innocent idiot whos ignorant of how dangerous people can be. C-could soone have done sothing to Veirya while I was setting Albert up?! Does karma co around that fast?! I mused in a panic.
Though I intended to give chase, Leah persistently clung to my arm with a smile.
Leah is so glad Papa is back! Leah missed Papa! Papa, what did you do there?! Leah wants to hear what happened! Leah w-
Sorry, Leah. I shook Leah off roughly.
Leah stumbled backwards and revealed a look of surprise. I ignored her to chase after Veirya. Sadly, all I caught sight of was her silver hair before she entered her room.
Miss Leah carefully called a Maid.
That woman really does deserve to die Leah gazed at the stairs with hostile intent written on her scowl, frightening the maid off. The maid couldnt understand the reason Veiryas daughter would reveal such an expression in that situation.
