Chapter 51

Behind them was Mikhail, who disappeared from their view.

‘You don’t love me now?’

As he recalled the shocking remark, his body trembled with anger and betrayal.

<Don’t talk to me next time. Because I don’t want to get involved with you again.>

It was unbelievable to say that I spoke with a mouth that whispered love. Mikhail gave a big look and clenched his fist.

‘Don’t make me laugh, I never agreed.’

Then, someone grabbed him by the wrist. Mikhail, who turned his head because of the delicate touch of his fingers and thought she was a Juvelian, soon hardened his face.

“Lord Mikhail, are you all right?” At Veronica’s appearance, Mikhail felt the irritation.

“It’s annoying, so don’t stick to me.” The body was pushed roughly. Veronica stared at Mikhail’s back with a sense of disbelief.

‘How can you do this to me?’

She thought of a deadly thin voice when she was crying.

<I’ve been ignored a lot of times.>

At first, she thought you were laughing at her, so now she felt sorry for it. But now, she knew the truth. She felt sorry for the princess’s eyes when she said that.

‘Oh, you too, ······ I see.’

Veronica shed tears and laughed with dejectedness.

“Delicious?” Max nodded at my question. “Yes.” Perhaps because he was also a good-looking man, his eating habits were pleasant and shiny. Yes, the expression “self-illumination” that came out in the reviews of celebrities I’ve seen before is perfect.

‘If I had the Internet here, I would have made a lot of money even if I had a cake eating show.’

It was when I had a ridiculous imagination. I caught sight of him staring at me.

”Why do you keep staring?”

“Oh, I have something to say.” Then he stared at me with the cake cream on his lips.

”What is it?” A sigh came out of the question.

‘Will this stobborn listen to me?’

When I saw him climb a tree, and when he confronted Mikhail. His behavior was too reckless and impulsive. It is also true that I was agonizing over whether to end the contract or not. But since he helped me out of goodwill, I decided to try to persuade him.

“In the future, I want you to be careful about your actions in front of others.” I heard a voice that responded calmly to my words.

“That’s why I were respectful in front of other people.”

“No, not that…… Like what happened with Mikhail.” He stared at me and frowned as if he really didn’t understand me.

”What’s wrong with that?”

”You’ll be in trouble if you don’t try.” As I said with concern, he only seemed to be cynical.

“Do I look like I’m going to be beaten by such a weak guy?” There was groundless confidence in that triumphant appearance, I sighed again.

“No, not that.” This is not a democratic society, but an absolute monarchy society. The reality is that ordinary people cannot even protest even if they are subjected to something unjust enough to make tears of blood in their eyes because it is a place where people are divided into classes.

“If you touch the noble family, ·····.’.” I tried to explain that if the common people touch the noble family for any reason, it would be against the law. But he just cut me off and dismissed me as if he didn’t want to hear me.

“Such a weak bone, even if ten people come.” Winning and losing is not important, but I sighed at him who couldn’t grasp the essence.

‘No matter what your real power is, your opponent is a nobleman.’

When you saved Max from Baron Gordon, and when I was angry and pressed him with my position. That’s why they couldn’t even talk to me. However, it is only between the noble family and the noble family that ends up with inequality. On the day when the commoners confronted the nobility, they could have been plastered and lost their necks when they were unlucky. So the majority of the common people were living with injustice. For all this time, I have had a desire for this father’s innocent disciple to live in peace.

“But you don’t know if you’ll get hurt.”

“Even if you don’t get hurt?” My voice went up a tone without realizing it.

“It’s because I’m worried too! So….” It was a time when I was going to tell you that please don’t make any accident and behave and be quiet. His face, staring at me with a strange face, came into my eyes.

“You were worried that I would get hurt?”

“Oh, well…… right.” I was worried, but I couldn’t say that I was more worried that I would lose my neck due to an accident. He frowned at the time of awkward subsidence.

“Why?” The questioning voice made me drink.

“I don’t want people around me and me to get hurt.”

“I would have said I wouldn’t get hurt.” He seems to be very confident in my father’s student skills. I opened my mouth, giving him a straight answer, repeating the same words.

“No matter how strong and high you are, you can lose.” I was the only one in the original. I had a father who was a hero and I was a princess, but everyone turned their backs on me at the crucial moment. In the end, the only choice left for me in crisis was death. “No matter how strong and brilliant you are, you must not overconfident in your position or ability. The moment you turn the majority into enemies, people will be waiting for the moment you become weak.” I soon had a bitter smile… When I thought of my future, I was overwhelmed with hopelessness.

‘I said this, but it’s not really easy.’

Then, he stared at me with a serious look.

“I don’t understand,” I said with all my heart, but I was stunned by the vulgar expression.

‘Yes, it’s too much to make a difference in status for someone who speaks informally to me in the first place.’

I decided to give a brief account of the matter.

“That’s not what matters now. I mean,” Then he replied grubbyly.

“You’re telling me not to attack or counterattack the nobles in front of you.” I hardened my face. I didn’t expect to say the right answer while talking out of the blue. For a moment, I frowned, even though I was dumbfounded.

‘What, I thought you didn’t understand? Did you understand everything?’

And for a second, I gave a suspicious. He might say something else that I didn’t agree with.

“So, are you going to do me a favor?” Then, an immediate answer came out.

“Okay, I won’t fight in front of you from now on.” It was not very believable, but it was settled.

‘Okay, now what I have to do is ·····.’

I take out my handkerchief and hand it to him. Then, he took the handkerchief and asked,

“Why are you giving it to me?” I told you something that bothered me throughout the conversation.

”Wipe some fresh cream on your lips.” Soon he wiped the fresh cream with a distorted face.

***

Back from his home, Max shook his face.

‘Did you think I’d lose to someone like that?’

Max is extremely dislike of being viewed as benevolent. He would not have allowed even making such an assumption.

<You said you owe someone? Take it and listen to it together.>

‘Except for my teacher, I’ve never lost to anyone.’

Prudently, the teacher’s daughter tried to look down on her and protect her.

<I’m just worried too! So, ····.>

Soon he loosened his fist.

‘I really don’t understand.’

Apart from trying to resolve the misunderstanding, he wasn’t offended. He just don’t want to miss out on every word of those red lips.

‘What the hell is wrong with you?’

He used to worry about the same problem, but no matter how much he thought about it, the answer didn’t come to him. Max frowned as he glared at the cake box given by Juvelian.

“I hate sweets, but I can’t believe you gave me such useless gifts.” Unlike the disgruntled murmur of voice, the eyes staring at the cake box were slightly loosened. Then, the door opened and Fresia came in.

“Lord, I have something to report on the last time you asked me to investigate,···· Oh! What’s the cake for?” Fresia asked and Max turned his face.

“Not a big deal.” The answer is yes, but Max’s eyes were fixed on the cake box. Fresia had a hunch.

‘If you touch that cake, you’ll probably end up dying.’

Frezia spoke with a quiver.

“Oh, yes. Then, first of all, I’ll give you a…” Fresia flinched at Max’s words that came out unexpectedly.

‘It’s expensive, but what should I do?’

I was embarrassed, but smiled and opened my mouth,

“Oh, that’s right,” but Max’s eyes were bitten as if he didn’t like the answer.

“It’s said to be the best tea room in the islands.” Even though he is undercover, he is also the owner of the largest salon. Fresia was able to guess Max’s intentions.

‘Are you telling me to praise that cake?’

It was an act that I didn’t understand because he was a lord who hated it, but Fresia opened his mouth to my heart.

“Definitely, the decoration looks great. The strawberries also look fresh.”

“Yeah. It’s the cake that the best tea room boasts.” It was a compliment given, but she could see Max smiling. Fresia frowned a little bit

‘I’m sure it’s a cake from the princess.’

So Frezia was guessing where the cake came from. Then, Max called her.

”Fresia.”

”Oh, yes. Lord.” Feeling like he had something to say, she waited for Max’s mouth to drop with a serious look. After a moment’s waiting, Max’s mouth opened.

“For all your hard work, I will give you a special,·· cake.” In an unbelievable remark, Pretzia doubted her ears.

‘You said you’d give me your precious cake?’

With her money, she could buy as many cakes as she could. But since it was Maximilian’s first private gift, the cake that Fresiaknew felt special.

“Thank you, Lord. I’ll try to save it,” replied Fresia, nodding her head.

“Half is mine. Don’t eat it all,” Fresia frowned at the words.

‘Would you like me to give you everything? You don’t like sweets.’
