Mielle, who came down last, also fixed her face to Aria's beauty. She seemed to have worked hard on decoration, but when she stood next to Aria, her natural appearance was far from glamour, and her presence was clouded.

"Mielle, don't you feel uncomfortable sitting in such a corner?"

Aria asked Mielle, who was glancing out of the window on the wagon wall,

"... no, it's been a while since I've been out, so I'd like to look outside."

Mielle, a noble lily-like lady, was extremely reluctant to approach Aria's side, a rose-like lady as if sprinkled with gold dust, and kept a distance from Aria even after she arrived at the mansion of the Marquis.

"Sarah!"

In front of Sarah as usual, Aria, who imitated a child, welcomed her, hugging her waist, even though she was now about the same height.

And whether she always looked like a child in Sarah's eyes, she greeted Aria with a lovely face. The eyes staring at each other were as warm as the spring sun, which had yet to come.

"Come in, Aria. I've been waiting."

"I'm glad you're here to celebrate." The Marquis also welcomed Aria with his friendly face and speech, which was no different from the last one.

"It's a small gift. I prepared for you to be happy for a long time."

'Yeah, if possible, for the rest of your life. That way, you'll be my supporter and background for the rest of my life.'

At Aria's beckoning, Annie carefully handed him the present she had been holding.

"... oh my god! How can I get this precious thing?"

What Aria prepared was a pair of crystal birds. It was a bird known for a good relationship as a husband and a wife. The eye was studded with diamonds and the base was golden. There was an inscription that said, "I hope the future of the Marquis of Vincent and Sarah will be full of happiness."

"I've never received such a precious gift before. I can't believe there is such a big crystal."

The Marquis was also deeply impressed and carefully observed Aria's gift.

It was made specially by a jeweler, and it was difficult to even order because it was not easy to obtain large-sized crystals, even at a high price. The Marquis seemed to like it, but Sarah was so burdened that Aria added with a shy face.

"It's Sarah's engagement, my favorite friend and teacher, and I really wanted to prepare a great gift. I hope you like it."

Only then did Sarah, who read Aria's mind toward her, nod her head in tears. The ceremony had not started yet, but Sarah was already on the verge of tears, so Aria hurried to embrace her shoulder. The Count, watching the warm scene, naturally stepped in between them with his voice ringing,

"I haven't seen you in a long time, Marquis Vincent."

"Thank you for coming like this."

The Marquis's attitude toward the Count was also very polite, thanks to her father. Following the Count, the Countess greeted him with care, and then Mielle, who were a short distance away from Aria, greeted Sarah and the Marquis of Vincent.

"Congratulations. Lady Sarah has a good heart, and she must be a benevolent wife of the Marquis."

"Thank you, Lady Mielle."
