The moment I finished talking, I saw my father's disciple's eyes widen.

'I'm trying to save you, so keep your mouth shut. Okay?'

I sent a strong eye sign to my father's disciple. But the backlash came from unexpected places.

''What? Miss, what do you mean? He's not one of our men.'' The voice startled me.

'Oh, I forgot the knights that were standing behind me!'

The problem was that they had been discreet when shopping for a long time. Now that I'm used to ignoring them, I've forgotten them. I turned around and said calmly.

"He's a escort my father secretly attached to me. He's a very skilled mercenary."

Geraldine responded stubbornly in my words. "But I didn't get any word.''

I sighed.

'It's a really bad time.'

I lied to explain the situation later.

"I was the one who told Father to keep it a secret."

"Even so-"

"I'll tell you the details later. There's someone we've been talking to right now." Geraldine sighed and bowed his head.

"Okay." When Geraldine stepped back, I glared at Baron Gordon.

"So, you don't think you're going to get away with accusing my escort? Baron Gordon." The man flinched at my words, but protested by pride.

"What do you mean? He made me fall, a nobleman, and he gave me a hard time! What does the princess have in mind to compensate me for the damage?"

Some aristocrats hold their masters accountable for their servants' mistakes, so it wasn't a strange declaration.

'You're not close to me, yet you're saying you're going to take a compensation.'

Given this rapid change of attitude, it seemed like he was not simple minded.

'Ha, I really hate it.'

At first glance at the situation, it seemed that the Baron unilaterally argued and urged an apology. In the face of whether or not to apologize even if he made a mistake first, he couldn't apologize to the person whose father, who had a dirty personality, first argued.

'It can't be helped.'

In this case... I responded silently, staring at the Baron.

"My escort is from a mountain village, so he still doesn't know very well. So it's my fault that I didn't teach manners, and I'll take responsibility as his master." I could see the Baron looking at me in a bright light.

'You're looking forward to how much you're going to charge us now? But eyes for eyes, teeth for teeth.'

Usually, they punish their servants for their wrongdoings or pay them with money. But I had no intention of beating up my father's disciple, nor had not the slightest intention of wasting my precious fortune.

"Like my escort, the baron gives me a hard time."

In a flash, I could see the laughter disappear from the baron's face.

'Do you want me to lower to you?'

Baron Gordon, who was listening to the princess, trembled.

'I made a bad call.'

Apparently, the nobles who were close to the Floyen family talked about Princess Floyen as an arrogant and inexperienced little girl.

"Come on."
