chapter 347
347 – Scene 347# Resolution
*
“So… When do you plan to propose? Tristan.”
“…Marriage proposal?”
Bella, sitting across from her, looked at me with her chin resting.
She came to me suddenly and I was wondering what she was going to say?
I was a little embarrassed.
I’m sure I once made a fake marriage proposal at her request. But are you asking me to propose again?
Just as expected. Bella sighed as if she had read my thoughts.
“What you said to me before was just a rehearsal and not a real marriage proposal. “You’re not planning on marrying me without proposing, right?”
“…”
That’s what I was thinking.
“Be patient… You’re really insensitive. Count.”
“Even a fake marriage proposal is a marriage proposal.”
“Another ridiculous sophistry… “Then will you fake marry me too?”
“It’s surprising. “Isn’t that the kind of relationship we’ve been playing so far, more like lovers or less than a couple?”
“If you keep acting so shamelessly, how can you become less than a lover?”
“…”
She shut her mouth because she thought that would happen if she said one more word.
Bella smiled with satisfaction at that sight.
“I’m looking forward to a marriage proposal.”
Certainly, a marriage proposal, as well as a wedding, is a very important event for a woman.
As it was a once-in-a-lifetime event, Bella was determined to accept the proposal.
Of course, I understand her feelings
But apart from understanding it, it’s annoying.
In the first place, wasn’t a marriage proposal a request to get married?
And Bella has actually agreed to marry me, so a marriage proposal is a big deal.
‘I’m already busy…’
Feeling a bit resentful, I decided to ask the opinion of the guy grinning next to me.
“Helga.”
“Yes.”
“Do you also want to be proposed to me?”
“Of course.”
An unexpected answer came back.
If she was impatient, I thought she would skip the proposal and just get married.
“Then you have no intention of marrying me until you receive my proposal?”
“Hehe… Of course not. Count. “I may have given the Count body, mind, and soul, but I have not given him permission to marry.”
“… In the end, wasn’t everything allowed?”
“You don’t know. A marriage proposal is an important event that should never be omitted. “The Count must propose to me and the princess.”
“Your article says the same thing. Count.”
“…”
It’s strange.
There’s no way Helga and Bella get along this well.
Aren’t these all things you said when I wasn’t around?
As I was looking around to see if there was anyone who could sympathize with me, I noticed a woman standing next to Bella.
“Does Blanche think so too?”
“Yes… Yes? Sorry. I couldn’t hear it properly…”
“It means proposing before marriage.”
“Ah… ? Proposal of marriage… “Do you mean that?”
Why is he like this again?
Blanche looks dazed, as if she wasn’t listening to our conversation at all.
“Ah…”It’s because Blanche has a lot on her mind these days.”
“Have a lot on your mind?”
“Not right now, but when I get married and leave the mansion, of course Blanche can follow me…” ” .”
“Miss. I also want to follow her, but…”
“Then you can just follow me.”
“I am sorry… I am a knight of the Isaachel family, before being a knight of yours. “I have a duty to remain at the mansion and protect the duke and the family.”
“Oh my… “Blanchet is not the only knight.”
“That’s true, but…”
Blanche slurred her words.
I felt like I knew what was being said just by listening to the conversation.
Due to Blanche’s stubborn nature, there was a conflict between fulfilling her duties as a knight of her house of Isaac Hel and protecting her as a knight guard of Bella.
In the end, she can’t protect both. Inevitably, one thing has to be given up.
And what to give up is already decided.
Of course, Bella wants Blanche to follow her, and Blanche also seems to want to follow Bella.
Then… It’s not that there is no way.
“Blanchet.”
“Yes?”
“If that’s the case, why don’t you get married and become independent?”
“Yes…Old time?!”
Now that I think about it, this problem can be solved if I introduce Blanche to a suitable partner.
If she marries a man, she will naturally have no choice but to give up the title of knight of the Isaac Hel family.
If you can introduce her to someone suitable among her her her her vassals her, she can follow Bella.
“Hmm… There was definitely a method like that.”
Bella nodded her head in agreement. I thought she had quite a clever idea, as did her reaction.
However, it didn’t seem that way to Blanche.
“Well, it’s a wedding… It doesn’t even make sense to me… !”
“No way. What is there to say that is not absurd? I was already a little sad that I had to marry Blanche first, so why don’t you follow the Count’s advice and get Blanche married too?”
“B-but how dare I…” ” ” .”
Blanche seemed uncharacteristically shaken by the story of her marriage.
There was something sad about that sight.
In any case, Blanchet is a victim of the evil deeds committed by our family. As the head of her family, I felt a responsibility to give her a happy future.
“Okay. Blanche. You deserve it.”
“Count…”
“It doesn’t have to be married.” “I just want you to find your own happiness.”
Blanchet’s life was also very strange.
Born as an orphan, she was taken in by the Ruelberta family and lived as an assassin. Her life was abandoned by Tristan and saved by Bella.
It took a long time for her, who had lived as a tool for her assassination, to open her heart.
Now is the time to forget the past and be happy.
“The Count is right. Blanche. “I hope Blanche is happy now.”
“Miss…”
Bella doesn’t know everything about Blanche’s past. I just know that he has a complicated past, but that’s what he said.
As far as I know, Bella didn’t bother to know about Blanche’s past her her her her.
What she was seeing was not Blanchet’s dark past
It was the ‘now’ where we were together.
Blanche lowered her head with an expression that she didn’t know whether to cry or laugh.
It would be best to give it some time.
Knock.
“I’ll prepare some tea…”
“Hmm.”
Wendy and the maid came in just in time to pour tea.
As if we had made a promise, we decided to sip our tea and wait for Blanche to open her mouth.
“How about tea… ?” ?”
“Hmm. Sounds good? “It tastes much better than last time.”
“Ahaha… Is that so… ?”
“Yes. Wendy. “My skills have really improved.”
Bella, who was savoring her tea, suddenly looked at me and said.
“Tell the Count what to say too. Also, don’t be blunt and say it’s not that bad.”
“… “It’s not my type of car.”
“Tristan! Is that really true?”
“Oh, princess… ! “I’m fine.”
“Wendy… That’s why the Count says such things because you’re so kind.”
“Oh, no… Because I didn’t drive this car…”
“Yes?”
Tilting her head, Bella soon spotted the blonde maid next to Wendy.
“But there’s a maid I haven’t seen before? Are you new?”
“Ah… This person, this person…”
“This person…?”
Only then did the new maid who was making tea look back.
“Bella… Please save me.”
“Miss Michaela!?”
Michaela, the blonde god in the wall, was waiting for our car wearing a maid uniform like Wendy.
Bella realized that fact too late and jumped up.
“Why did Michaela… Oh, no. Count! What are you doing to Michaela!?”
“As you can see, we chose a new maid to make tea instead of Wendy.”
Michaela, who was captured by Helga, ended up working at my mansion, literally crying and eating mustard.
In order to go out into the outside world, I have no choice but to look good.
“Are you saying that now? “Who in their right mind would hire God?!”
“It’s here.”
“Stop playing around and send Michaela back to her paradise!”
“Why? “I only gave her a job because she asked me to work at her mansion.”
“Who, who ejaculated!”
An exasperated Michaela put her hands on her waist and she got angry.
“You crazy b*stard! Do you think I’m the kind of person who would stay here having tea? I am an absolute god! “He is more omniscient and omnipotent than you all!”
“He’s omniscient and omnipotent, so he’s definitely good at making tea.”
“Stop talking nonsense and send me back to paradise!”
“Do you want to go back?”
“Of course!”
“Hmm… Is it. Then it looks like you don’t want to go ‘outside’.”
“!”
Michaela paused.
“Small, scrawny guy… ! Is that really true?”
“It’s you who is disappointing.”
“Profit… !”
“Refill.”
I held up the empty teacup and grinned.
Michaela, who was trembling, looked like she was going to throw a sword at me…
She couldn’t do that because Helga next to her was smiling as if she was trying to do something.
Finally, Michaela bit her lip and lifted her kettle.
“Wow, it’s a lot… Drink it. This bad… “Master!”
“OK. I’ll pour some tea for Bella too, but? “Her her glass her she was empty too.”
“That… Okay. It’s Bella. “I’ll pour you some tea.”
“Miss Michaela?!”
Even though Bella was dumbfounded, she happily accepted it because it was a gift from God.
I still don’t know what the situation is.
“I understand.”
Blanche opened her mouth after silence.
“I will follow you, young lady.”
“Blanchet. Then… !”
“Yes. She wants to be with you forever. So…”
Blanche spoke in a calm and determined voice.
“I will become the count’s concubine.”
I ended up dropping my teacup.
