Chapter 45
“……that’s why.”
“Don’t worry too much.”
“However…… ”
About to knock, Zachary suddenly stopped. As the door was ajar, a small conversation could be heard. The owner of the voice was Iellie. Iellie apologized in a guilty voice.
“Mom. Today, I’m really sorry.”
Zachary bit his lip. Because of his aunt, Iellie and the Viscountess had a hard time.
“Oh my, our Len. Why are you saying that?”
“It’s because of me. I should have had better control over Countess Laurent.”
“Mom is fine, so you don’t have to worry about it like that.”
The Viscountess comforted Iellie with a friendly voice. At the same time she asked a question in a relaxed tone.
“More than that, is the Heir Apparent good to you?”
‘Me?’
At that, Zachary was startled. Iellie was silent for a moment. That silence felt like a thousand years to Zachary. After a while, Iellie answered softly. It was a voice with an obvious shyness.
“…… Yes, he’s nice.”
“How much?”
“Very much…… ?”
At Iellie’s clumsy answer, the Viscountess laughed out loud. A gentle voice answered her.
“Yes, that’s fine. If you’re happy, that’s it.”
“Yes.”
Zachary stood still outside the door. He did not have the courage to enter the room.
The air in the room was soft and warm. It was a family he had never experienced before, loving and respecting each other.
‘…… I don’t think it suits me either.’
He better go back, Zachary thought bitterly. It was both strange and a bit lonely to know that such a friendly family existed.
A family he never had before.
‘Still…… It would be nice if I could also be with Len.’
Thinking so, he stopped his feet. Then there was the sound of footsteps. The door swung open.
“Huh?”
Amid the bright yellow light pouring out, Iellie, in a white negligee, raised her head. Huh?
Confused, pale green eyes stared intently at his face. She immediately asked a question.
“Zachary, what are you doing here?”
“Ah, that, that.”
Zachary hesitated in response. She clasped his hands first, as if it was natural for her, as he narrowed her brow slightly.
“Come in.”
“Bu, but.”
“What is it?”
Iellie pulled Zachary’s hand with a petulant expression. Light green eyes stared at Zachary.
“Zachary, you are our family too.”
“…… really?”
“Yes. You can’t be outside without your family.”
Having said that, Iellie just pulled Zachary toward her . Zachary staggered into the room. At the same time, Zachary swallowed a gasp. His eyes met with the bewildered Viscountess.
‘Heuk!’
Zachary’s earlobes turned bright red. He was rarely embarrassed but he lowered his head.
“…… Excuse, excuse me.”
“Oh my, Heir Apparent?”
Viscount Blanchett and the Viscountess rose from their seats at the same time. The couple looked at him with worried faces.
“Welcome. Aren’t you tired at this late hour?”
“Are they still playing poker?”
The Viscount added to his wife’s question. Zachary felt a rush of guilt creeping in.
‘Count Laurent and the Countess…… Those scumbags.’
Count Laurent and the Countess, who were condescending.
Because of them, his mother-in-law had to suffer greatly. The Count stuck like a dead frog to the parlor floor.
Thinking about it, Zachary asked.
“I am sorry. My aunt spoke rude words to Mother-in-Law…… ”
Zachary said so in a guilty voice. As he bowed his head deeply, the three waved their hands.
“Hey, Zachary. My parents say it’s okay… … !”
“Len is right. Oh my gosh, raise your head.”
“Heir Apparent is the one who should not bow his head to anyone except the Duke and His Majesty the Emperor!”
Seeing the three family members spitting out words with each other made his heart warm.
Iellie grabbed Zachary’s sleeve and led him to the warm chair where the fireplace was burning. She said warmly.
“Come on, Zachary. sit here.”
Zachary sat down in the chair. Iellie, who was caressing his cheek, widened her eyes.
“Oh my God, you’re cold. Would you like a cup of hot drink?”
“Oh, no. it’s okay…… ”
“Okay, what’s okay? Drinking warm milk makes you sleep better, so drink this.”
Iellie stubbornly pushed a large mug into Zachary’s hand. The warm milk was filled to the edge of the cup.
At the same time, the Viscountess handed over a basket full of sweets.
“Eat some cookies. I tried one too, and it was really good.”
“Ah, yes…… ”
“Do you need a snack other than cookies? I just got some jerky.”
The Viscount quietly made his own offer. The Viscountess, with a surprised expression on her face, complained.
“Warm jerky and milk, what a nonsensical combination?”
“Um, does it look like that?”
“Of course!”
The couple quarreled with each other. A contrast to the cold silence of the Ducal couple in his memory.
Zachary blinked. This kind of warm favor from others is almost the first time except for Iellie.
“I’m sorry. My parents are like little children…… ”
Iellie rolled her eyes with an embarrassed face. Zachary smiled softly.
And after about ten minutes. Iellie felt some regret.
‘…… I brought Zachary into the room for nothing. I’d rather go back together.’
Currently, Iellie was feeling very tired. She glanced at her father.
The Viscount was telling stories with a smile.…… ”
‘No, he doesn’t have to tell Zachary about my embarrassing past, right?’
This is how the incident started. Viscount Blanchett, who suddenly had a stern expression on his face, spoke to Zachary.
“Do you know how much Iellie attends to her appearance?”
“Yes?”
Zachary stared at the Viscount with a puzzled expression on his face. The Viscount spoke with a face like a victor.
“Of course. When our Iellie was young…… ”
“Dad!”
Iellie exclaimed loudly. No, at first, he said he didn’t want to burden Zachary. When did they get along like that and get determined to tell her past? What a surprise!
“She has been looking at her appearance since she was a baby.”
Viscount Blanchett recounted. Iellie’s face turned bright red.
“Stop it!”
“When she looked in the mirror, she smiled so hard, this kid…… ”
The Viscount chuckled and shook his head. The situation at that time was something like this.
The reincarnated Iellie had the eyes and mindset of the grown-ups, and she fully enjoyed the few benefits of the reincarnation.
‘I was born so cute?!’
The pink haired baby in front of her eyes was the cutest and prettiest of the babies she had ever seen. So she looked in the mirror and simply enjoyed her beauty…… She didn’t know this would come back like this. Iellie had all sorts of impressions.
“I think it would be very cute and lovely to see Len as a child.”
Besides, Zachary said so with a serious face.
Iellie, now unable to overcome the embarrassment, covered her face with her hands. She muttered, not knowing what to do.
“Ugh, I’m going to die of shame. Stop it…… ”
“Len.”
“Are you going to make fun of me too? Will you?”
Iellie, about to cry, glanced at Zachary through the gap between the fingers covering her face.
A great laugh erupted from the sight. Zachary, laughing with the Blanchetts, suddenly blinked.
‘…… amazing.’
Zachary had been caught up in rumors that he was a monster. Nevertheless, the Viscount Blanchett couple looked at Zachary with a gaze that had no prejudice at all.
It was surprising to Zachary, who was not used to the warmth.
‘How do people…… Can they be warm like this?’
A warm family. People who respect and love each other. Iellie grew up in that family with a lot of love.
So, Iellie has grown into a person who can love others without prejudice.
‘Perhaps so.’
Then, perhaps, Iellie could feel his loneliness. She lived among those warm people, but now she’s with the blunt and cold people of the North.
At that time, the Viscount opened his mouth with a determined expression on his face.
“Then, Heir Apparent.”
“Yes?”
“The Heir Apparent will be Iellie’s husband.”
Iellie’s husband. The phrase always made Zachary flutter, while also shouldering him with a heavy sense of responsibility.
“So, I think the heir Apparent is now part of our family.”
“…… ”
Zachary was momentarily speechless. After hesitating for a while, the Viscount looked into Iellie’s eyes and continued.
“And our daughter is very fond of the Duke.”
“Da, Dad!”
Her cheeks were bright red as she called out to the Viscount. But the Viscount continued.
“As much as our daughter likes the Heir Apparent, I hope the Heir Apparent also…… ”
“I cherish her.”
“Yes?”
The Viscount’s eyes widened at the resolute voice. Zachary vowed with strength emphasizing each word.
“I will do my best to make Iellie happy.”
“Za, Zachary.”
Iellie didn’t know what to do and called out to Zachary. Zachary blushed slightly and lowered his head.
“I was really happy to hear that you thought of me as a family.”
“What? That, that.”
“So…… please take good care of us in the future.”
At Zachary’s polite words, the Viscount couple looked at each other and smiled. Then answered quickly.
“For saying that, we are truly grateful.”
“No. Thank you for sending me Iellie.”
“Rather, we…”
The three of them bowed their heads to greet each other. Iellie, unable to see it, opened her mouth.
“…… What are you all doing?”
Zachary thought as he squinted at Iellie’s pouting face from the side. Now, if Zachary succeeds the title of Duke, and Iellie becomes the Duchess officially. Whether she likes it or not, she will become more entrenched in the Imperial family.
‘But I will protect you.’
Zachary firmly made up his mind. He wrapped his hands around Iellie’s, who had a bewildered expression on her face.
It was late at night, and the two left the guest room. Holding hands and walking side by side in the hallway
Iellie suddenly looked at Zachary. She asked, waving her hand as he grabbed her.
“By the way, Zachary, how did you know I was here?”
“Ah, that…… ”
“Did you go to my room first?”
Iellie smiled with a playful expression. When Zachary didn’t answer, she widened her eyes.
“Huh, really?”
“That’s right.”
Zachary nodded his head politely. Iellie narrowed her brow. She stuck out her tongue and laughed playfully.
“Zachary. Don’t you like me too much?”
“You’re saying something very obvious, Len.”
Zachary tilted his head to the side, and answered. Iellie stepped back with a shy expression.
No, she’s more ashamed of herself if he admits it like that. Their eyes met. Zachary smiled.
“Tomorrow, all events will finally be over.”
“Yes. All the people of the Duke’s Castle worked hard.”
Iellie looked at Zachary’s profile. In the light of the moon shining through the window, his graceful nose and lips were shimmering silver. She suddenly realized that Zachary had grown up.
