Can We Become A Family?

CHAPTER 21

There was another uproar in the morning at the Agnes Duchy.

This time it was because of Vivian.

"Miss, it'll be bad at this rate!"

"Get out! I said get out!"

News spread widely that Vivian was crying and making a fuss after seeing Navia's gift. People frowned when they heard why Vivian was crying.

"Master gave Lady Navia gifts from Ansier Boutique?"

Navia was a foster daughter anyway.

They heard that she would become the Empress later, but people here were quite keen on politics. Navia was just a chess piece for Nikan to roll under his thumb.

They knew exactly that the one they should be loyal to was Nikan. That's why it was difficult to understand Nikan's behavior this time.

"What if Lady Vivian gets in trouble..?"

They clenched their tongues as they recalled the young Vivian.

The news about Vivian quickly entered Nikan's ears.

"I only have two kids, but they're both troublesome!"

Nikan couldn't beat the kneeling man at the moment, so he threw his teacup next to him.

"She already enjoys those things regularly, but she's acting like a vulgar commoner just from a couple of products!"

As problems with his family continued, his irritation rose to its peak.

He thought that yesterday was quiet, but now Vivian was causing trouble. Different from his usual composure, Nikan was furious.

"Ruling a duchy is like ruling a small kingdom!"

"You are correct."

Lyndon responded to Nikan's words while swearing at the servants who failed to take care of Vivian properly.

At that time, a servant rushed in.

"Master, Lady Vivian has fainted!"

"Vivian fainted?!"

She was a child who inherited his blood and a daughter like a sore finger.

When Nikan heard that his daughter fainted, his face became pale and he ran to Vivian's room.

Bang!

"Vivi, is Vivi okay?"

He went to the bed where Vivian lay. Vivian's eyes were closed tightly, stained with tears.

Doctor Hans spoke.

"Because it's caused by stress, stability is the most important."

Nikan grabbed his head. Then didn't that mean that Vivian fainted because she was crying and jealous of Navia?

'It's not quiet for even a day!'

He was already busy transforming Navia into someone suitable for an engagement. He thought that things were going smoothly since Navia had excellent learning skills, even though she had dirty blood.

'The engagement is just around the corner.'

At this rate, because there had been a series of rumblings, the family's turmoil could enter the Empress' ears.

It could still be passed on as children fighting. However, it would be a problem if another big problem arised. Nikan gritted his teeth as he looked back at Vivian's dedicated maids.

"How were you taking care of Vivian to let her get like this?"

"We, we're sorry, Master..."

"Sorry?"
