The Young Lady Tames the Main Leads

Chapter 44

As soon as I told Cedric that I had permission, Cedric was jumping with joy.

Then he immediately grabbed Polly, went to the first floor and hurried to tell the coachman to come and prepare the wagon.

So we went straight to Jake’s residence, at the Duchy of Theion.

Cedric was scolded, to stop rushing the coachman to hasten and increase the speed.

“I have been contacted in advance. Cedric from the Duchy of Bedmon, and Emir from Marquisate Saeron. Come in.”

And finally we entered the Theion family mansion.

‘Has it only been a month? It’s my first time here since I entered kindergarten.’

***

I have been to this mansion from the days I was cooing until now. In a word, it is my second home.

“Mir!”

And as soon as I entered the front door of the mansion, Jake, dressed in a neat house coat, ran to me.

The butler of this mansion, who was standing next to him, didn’t bat an eyelid anymore, maybe because it was a scene that he usually sees. Well, I wonder if there’ll be a day or two that Jake welcomes me without such a fuss every time I come.

Jake greeted only me, treating Cedric that was standing next to me as someone he didn’t know at all.

“It’s so nice being able to see you again after kindergarten. Mir.”

“Me too, Jake. Even though I came here because of a request, it felt new since I haven’t been here in almost a month.”

It was a typical greeting, but it was sincere. It was only a month or so, but the seasons changed during that time, and spring flowers bloomed in the garden, and the scenery was beautiful.

The mansion’s exterior wall was repainted, the white mansion was truly befitting of a family with blood flowing from the empire’s greatest magician.

The energy of fresh magic spread throughout the mansion was also refreshing the mood.

Jake and I greeted each other with a friendly hug. Jake seemed excited and he poured out words into my ears.

“My father is also waiting for you. He said it’s been a while since he saw Mir’s face. Could you go up to the small parlor next to the office on the second floor right now? No, no. There are so many things I wanted to show Mir. It would be nice to go to my room first.”

Is it because of the mood that I can feel the stinging gaze behind my back?

To be honest, I also wanted to go up to Jake’s room and play with a new toy powered by some kind of magical power.

However, with the gaze I feel right now, I decided to go to the parlor first because I was afraid that Polly could not bear it and lose all its vitality if I procrastinate.

Cedric’s sadness, betrayal, and scheduled blackening will happen in a matter of minutes and it will be out of my control.

“I’m sorry, Jake. First, let’s save the dog, no, magical being first, and then play together.”

Jake looked sad, but soon nodded his head.

Then he suddenly hardened his face and asked me a question. He made a funnel with his hands as if whispering, but in fact it was loud enough to be heard very well by Cedric.

“……But Mir, does he have to come into our mansion? I just want to take the magical being and ask my father to see it. I hate people like Lord Cedric taking their feet into the mansion.”

“Who cares! Uh… If it wasn’t because of Polly. Be patient, be patient.”

Cedric glared at Jake’s words with bright golden eyes, but even so, he struggled to look down at the person he resented.

At that moment I saw something. It was nothing other than an illusion, as if the tail of Jake’s mouth crept up, as if it was refreshing.

“Jake, you just…”

“Yes? Mir, what is it?”

“Oh, no, nothing.”

I didn’t talk much. Looking back, Jake’s mouth was fine.

Gosh, I have a lot to care about these days, so I can see nothing but vainness.

I can’t believe I’m already doing this at such a young age? Sob.
