as long as I worked hard…

 

‘I can’t be stupid and hasty.’

 

I didn’t want to ruin the perfect and delicate relationship with stupid jealousy.

 

The Duke smiled bitterly and turned around.

 

“Where have Astel and Sir Retro gone?”

 

“The- thelma village! I heard they’ve been to the village, Duke.”

 

Without further explanation, the Duke of Anais walked out of the mansion coldly.

 

Only those left in the hallway looked at each other with bewildered faces.

 

If something went wrong, they thought they’d have visited their ancestors directly.

 

“Oh, dear, why did you suddenly come out?”

 

Jenny knelt down and patted the child carefully.

 

But the child that Jenny patted on the shoulder, was clenching his soft fists tightly.

 

“I found it!” The child shouted.

 

“Yes? What did you find?”

 

“Clothes, owner!”

“The clothes owner?”

 

The clothes the child’s were wearing were the children’s clothes that were brought to Astel when she asked her maids.

 

A hidden pocket under the bib contained a word card, which Astel had tucked secretly.

 

-‘Yeah.
You have a very cool daddy, too.’

 

-‘Huh?’

 

-‘This is what your daddy wears, isn’t it cool?’

 

The baby couldn’t understand everything Astel said, but he knew one thing.

 

‘I have a dad, too! Daddy is a cool clothes owner!’

 

The orphanage teachers said I didn’t have a mother or father.

 

But there was!

 

He’s also very strong, so I have a father who can protect me from the scary director!

 

The baby shuddered at the thought of the director of the orphanage who tormented him in the past.

 

Then, the child smiled showing his front tooth and clenched his fist.

 

It was a bonus to gaze and look at the way the Duke had escaped from.

  

 

Meanwhile, the maids, who had been sitting on the floor with their weakened legs, stared blankly at the child smiling with his soft fists clenched while pondering something.

 

He, however, survived the Duke’s wrath.

 

The members of the Life Protection Committee gathered at the moment were relieved for a short time and swallowed their sighs when they saw the child’s safety, unaware of the situation.

 

 

 

 

At that time, I was walking along Thelma village with Retro.

 

“Well, you said you should buy a present for the Duke.”

 

“Oh, yes, I will.”

 

Lord Retro tried to pat me on the back for some reason, who seemed weak for some reason.

 

‘…Anyway, I was planning on giving the Duke a bouquet of flowers.’

 

Even if the Duke became more suspicious, I shouldn’t have changed my attitude.

I entered a flower shop leisurely.
And looked at what to buy for the Duke.

 

“It’s a Morphina flower.”

 

“Oh, yes.”

 

After meticulously choosing flowers, I asked Sir Retro a serious question.

 

“Hey, do you know anything about flowers?”

 

“Oh, no.
Do you remember the Great thief Ybor? Not long ago, a guy named Ybor stole that flower-processed morphina liquid from Panpania’s mansion.
So I did some research.”

 

Another story of the Great thief Ybor that came out earlier.

 

Morphina flowers were not such a precious species to steal from others, but they were difficult to process and turn into liquid.

 

It was also a difficult drug to deal with.

 

He was a guy who used to steal drugs, and live a dirty life that he once lived.

 

‘It’s none of my business.’

 

I skipped the topic of ‘Ybor’ moderately.

 

Instead, I looked up at Sir Retro and smiled brightly.

 

“Don’t you know anything about other flowers? Looking at your appearance, you look handsome and must have received a lot of flowers…”

 

I checked the rest of the flowers, hiding the words, ‘It’s fascinating.’

 

Sir Retro turned stiff in place.

 

The owner of the old flower shop sneaked up on me, who was thinking hard alone.

 

“You must be a newly married couple.”

 

“Oh, newly married couple?”

 

I shook my head and tried to respond pleasantly.

 

However, my plan to answer politely failed.

 

Sir Retro was too fast, shouting, “No, it’s not!”

 

What’s with him?

 

He’s screaming…

 

I looked at him startled.
I feel like I got dumped without even confessing…?
