Brazenness Tames the Workaholic Trash

"Lily! What happened?" Athy asks the sulking Lily on the side.

"I embarrassed myself, Princess." Lily groans and looks at Athy. "I... met this person at the market... I thought he was a kidnapper... and..."

"you scolded him and even threaten him going into jail." Athy smiled at Lily.

"princess... please don't make me remember it..." Lily blushed so hard and buried her head in the pillow. "I didn't know he was those cute kid's guardian!"

Athy moved by her side and asked, "well... is he handsome? A man with kids is always hot."

"Princess!" Lily sprung out of the bed and looked at her in disbelief.

Athy was smiling at her and giving her knowing looks, "I am just asking if he's handsome..."

Lily blushed once more and replied, "he... is... very handsome..."

Athy was grinning at her. "what does he look like?"

Lily really couldn't refuse her princess. She sat down once again and said, "he's a very tall man, muscular too. In Obelia, he's even more attractive than Sir Robane. He looked stern and serious."

Athy couldn't help but giggle, "both of us have a thing for a stern-looking man."

Lily looked at her – scandalized, "but I think, that man looks more dependable than your redhead noble."

Athy giggled and said, "My redhead is a bit on the fawny side, but cute..."

Lily giggled at Athy, "and... what are you planning to do now, princess?"

"oh... yes... before I forgot... I got a pass to the Henituse Duchy..."

Lily looked at Athy and asked, "Henituse?"

"yeah." Athy pulled out the token with the Henituse golden turtle. It was a gold insignia given to the important persons.

"Princess! That's Henituse!"

Athy looked confused. "what's wrong with Henituse?"

"ah... you don't know?" Lily asks once again, "it's currently one of the most powerful Ducal Household in Rowoon... the First-born son is the emperor's sworn brother and the newly appointed Marshal of Rowoon military... the second born is said to be talented in politics that the firstborn leaves every matter to him, he is the next heir and currently handling all Local and National political affairs. The House Duke himself is not interfering with their affairs and only steps up when he's needed to whether it's for the firstborn or the second born. I also heard that the youngest daughter is about to be knighted by the emperor himself!"

If Athy correctly remembers it, Cale was the first-born son.

"Lily..." Athy paled, "I think... I made a grave mistake of calling him fawny."

"you mean?"

"He's the firstborn of the Ducal House." Athy panicked, "I... oh my god... I kept teasing him... will I get punished?" He's even a military personality!

Lily looked at her and asked, "if... they gave you this token, means you're an acknowledged person... I hope.... This is what you get princess for flirting with the most important man in the empire."

Cale certainly looked wimpy for a military person. Athy was about to say something when they heard one of the dancers calling out for her.

"Athy... the boss is looking for you." Both of them stopped and looked at Magie. "he's calling for you..."

Athy looked at Lily, "I'll be back..."

"okay... be safe, Princess."

Athy left the room and entered the boss' room. She saw him signing papers, especially since it was her ownership paper.
