「Eseria, Wallace will be here this morning so when he comes, show your face.」

When their whole family is having breakfast, Eseria’s father told her that. She tilted her head but nodded obediently.

「Okay. I don’t mind, but why? It is true that I asked Wallace-san to make something for me but it’s too early to be its completion date.」

「Rather than delivery, he wants to talk to you about something today. I will be out of the mansion today but Miredia will accompany you to talk to him.」

「I understand.」

(Fuun? I wonder what it is. Is the thing I asked for was too hard to make so he’ll be asking for details?)

Even after receiving the explanation, Eseria is still wondering what he wants to talk about. However, since the other party will come soon, she just quietly eats her breakfast.

After that, Wallace arrived according to the appointed time. Eseria, who was in her room, was called and headed to the guest receiving room.

「Hello, Wallace-san.」

「Eseria-sama and madame, I’m truly sorry for taking your time.」

Wallace greeted the little girl Eseria without compromising courtesy and turned to Miredia and bowed his head again. When she sees that, she responds with a smile.

「I don’t mind. My husband also trusts you who always makes the best products. By the way, I heard that you want to talk to Eseria about something, what do you want to talk about?」

「Yes. I’ve already talked with his excellency the duke about it but I would also love to hear madame’s opinion.」

「Maa….what is it?」

Miredia looked a little uneasy after hearing Wallace’s loud reply. Wallace turned to Eseria with a serious expression and earnestly offered something.

「Eseria-ojousama, you have asked my store to make a lot of “games” for you. I would love them to be made and sold at my store.」

When she heard that, she became seriously puzzled.

「Eh? I thought Wallace-san has already been making and selling them at your store since long ago, is that not the case?」

「I wouldn’t dare!!」

「Fueee!?」

In response to Eseria’s casual words, for some reason, Wallace’s expression took a sudden turn and even leaned from where he was sitting down to complain to Eseria.

「I’m too afraid to do so. Eseria-sama is a member of the Duke family of Sjogren who’ve given me grace. It’s your own invention and I will not dare to do disrespectful things like selling them without your consent! Do you think I’m a person who’d do that!?」

「Eh-ehto, okay! My apologies! I now understand that Wallace-san is a polite person!」

Seeing her daughter immediately apologizing to Wallace, Miredia explained his connection to them while smiling bitterly.
