Anriche shrugged her shoulders slightly.
“Isn’t it a little strange for me to send the money I was given to Saxony?”
“…Do you think so?”
“Yes. I would rather give that amount to those belonging to Valois.”
Even after hearing that answer, Alexei still had an ambiguous face. After a while, he cautiously asked another question.
“But, didn’t you value Saxony more before?”
“Umm… To get rid of the villainess’ stigma, shouldn’t I change my behavior first?”
“….”
Anriche, who was full of playfulness, tried to talk about being the villainess for no reason. At that, his face turned into an angry expression again.
Alexei’s reaction was so funny that she barely swallowed the laughter that was about to burst out.
“Of course, if my family doesn’t have money that I send and is going to die of starvation right away… I’ll have to send it with tears in my eyes.”
She added her words in a playful voice.
“Though in reality, it’s not actually like that, is it?”
“Still…”
“Well, the money I sent will be used to fund my incompetent brother’s business at best.”
Saying so, she shook her head with her bitter face.
The reason why her younger brother has failed in his investment over and over again, and yet he can boast about being the head of the Marquisate—It was all because the Marquisate of Saxony and Anriche were sacrificing for him.
After her younger brother took over the family, the first thing he did…
‘Selling the small estates owned by the Marquisate.’
So now, the only land owned by the Marquis of Saxony was the Marquisate of Saxony, which had the fief of the marquis.
“It’s not about pouring water into a bottomless kettle, it’s time for him to come to his senses.”
Only after hearing the answer, Alexei realized that he was quite nervous. If she said that she still hasn’t given up on her love for Marquisate Saxony…
‘…If that were the case, it must have been a little sad for some reason.’
It was very unfamiliar for him to think like this. He thought his expectations of Anriche had already been put down in the distant past.
“More than that, Duke.”
“Oh, yes.”
Alexei, who was suddenly awakened at the sound of her voice calling for him, glanced back at Anriche.
She had a very worried expression on her face.
“I have something to discuss.”
“Discuss?”
“Well, I think it’s time for Liliana to get a tutor, too… What do you think?”
“….”
With the emotion that pierced his chest, Alexei gazed down at her unconsciously. As he went quiet, Anriche paused. Her face became embarrassed, and she rubbed her cheek with her hand.
“I…is there anything on my face?”
“No, no.”
Alexei hurriedly shook his head.
