“You’re really conservative at times like this. Pauline, what’s going on?”
Seidrick said in as light a voice as possible.
“I…, I came because it was a little urgent. Sir, the royal family forbade Lord Kendrick to be honored in the cemetery today.”
“What?”
Seidrick dropped his hand. His neat mouth hardened coolly. That was why the conservative Pauline came all the way here. To put it simply, Seidrick’s entry was blocked today.
“Why?”
He wanted to hear at least a royal justification.
“Your Grace Duke’s rank is lower than our writer… No, Madam. Since the Madam is higher, let her go.”
“Shit!”
In the meantime, Seidrick blocked Alyssa from entering the palace, and he has made such a nasty move. Alyssa would have had nothing else to be extorted from, but what the hell are they doing this for…
The king could not have objected to harassing Cambridge, and the queen was aiming for the loophole.
While she harassed Cambridge, she found a way to harass Alyssa.
Seidrick bit his lip.
Damn Avery.
Seidrick swears and puts his hand on his waist. This could have ruined Kendrick’s death anniversary. He felt like he was driven to the end of a wall or cliff. To protect the precious things from the royal family, they made every effort to recover them, but in the end, they were blocked by the royal’s power.
Seidrick had to send Alyssa back to that hellish castle with his own hands.
He wandered through the room, unable to hide his anxiety.
“Is Alyssa aware of this?”
“Madam knows. The queen sent a telegram directly to her.”
Sigh.
There’s no stopping it.
With Alyssa’s personality, Seidrick knows it meant that she won’t stay still. She’ll want to get the anniversary done, so she’s going in on behalf of Seidrick.
Then she will come back with an empty face. With that face he never wanted to see…
He was getting sick of Avery’s deeds, pulling him to hell if that could get them to feel better.
Seidrick was wandering around countless times before he beckoned to Pauline.
“Countess Gerald decided to help the queen this time, right?”
“Yes, that’s right.”
“I have to owe the Countess. Talk to the Countess and ask if she can spend some time holding off the Queen.”
“Maybe…”
“You will do it. Because Kendrick is a sore spot for everyone.”
“…Can I ask Lady Dania? I want her to accompany Alyssa.”
“I know that the relationship between the two has eased somewhat since the queen made a ridiculous proposal this time.”
“Fortunately, Lady Dania hates the royal family. She’s not going to wait and see and let Alyssa get beaten by the royal family. Because a common enemy makes allies.”
Should she admit that Seidrick, who came up with this in a short time, is amazing? Pauline nodded her head. For now, the method he came up with was the best. Lady Dania has a strong character, and above all, she is warm-hearted. If she was told how much Alyssa had been hurt by the royal family ever since before, and such nasty Avery was still tormenting her, Dania will never stand still.
Fortunately, Gerald County had the power to do that.
And as long as Countess Gerald would just buy time with the queen.
Alyssa may not have to suffer so much.
Nevertheless, there was nothing he could do about his anger. Seidrick’s body was shaking. Seidrick bent his back as he breathed deeply and touched the table.
“…I will definitely destroy it.”
“I wish it too.”
Dare to ask our writer…
Pauline gave Seidrick a daunting cheer.

Alyssa put the telegram from the royal family into an envelope.
“Why is your expression like that?”
Just looking at the royal pattern makes her feel allergic, Sasha asked with an anxious face.
“…Why? Is my expression wrong?”
“You have a look that attracts all sorts of misfortunes.”
Sasha stomped her feet with an upset face.
“I think I have to go into the royal family, Sasha. Today… it’s going to be a little bit of a long day.”
Alyssa turned her eyes to the garden where the sun had completely risen.
Everything went awry.
Alyssa was supposed to prepare a grilled fish with Ophelia as Seidrick read the eulogy. She had lemon, pepper, salt, and quality fish all ready for him. Soon she can make something that could be called a well-cooked dish…
And, she thought she would be able to see her husband, who she had never seen before…
‘It has become useless.’
Alyssa bit her lips tightly and rose.
She wiped the ink off her hand with a handkerchief to finish the manuscript. She should change to something more neat and straight than the clothes she wore. It would be better to give a stiff and scary impression rather than a finite impression.
Knock-
“Duchess. Are you inside? It’s Dania Gerald.”
Until an unexpected guest came, that’s what she thought.
Dania was the first person to be invited today, but so early in this time? What’s going on?
“Come in, Lady Dania.”
At Alyssa’s words, Sasha opened the door.
Dania came in with a face as stiff as hers.
