Silver: Huh?

Meteria: Hm?

Alfia: What was that?

Surprised by each other's reactions, Meteria and Silver exchanged glances. Their sudden surprise stirred the slumbering Bell in Alfia's lap.

Still tired and groggy from his sleep, Bell slowly opened his eyes with a yawn.

Bell: *Sleepy* Hm........Papa? Mama?

When Bell attempted to move and get off of Alfia's lap, her expression turned to one of displeasure and sadness.

Alfia: *N-No!*

Unconsciously, she held onto Bell a bit tighter to prevent him from leaving.

Bell: *Sleepy* Hm? Ah........

Still drowsy and sleepy, Bell didn't bother resisting and nestled his head on Alfia's chest.

Any other male would've been killed by Alfia on the spot for that. But to Alfia what Bell did is just-

Alfia: *CUTE!!*

With Bell back to sleep, Meteria and Silver let out a sigh of relief. 

Alfia: It seems you two still have some talking to do. I'll take Bell to my room for some rest.

Meteria: Thank you, sister.

Alfia carefully stood up with Bell in her arms, but before leaving, she directed her words to someone not present in the room.

Alfia: You two can stop eavesdropping now.

???: EH!

???: I told you this would happen.

Meteria: Sister, who's there?

The voices revealed themselves to be Cynthia and Violet, Bell's personal maids and guardian.

Cynthia: Ehehehehe~ We've been caught.

Violet: Forgive us, madams. I was just making sure this one doesn't cause any troubles.

She said, giving Cynthia a glare.

Cynthia: Sorry!

Alfia: *Glare* Did you hear?

Bell: ZZZzzzzz...

Under normal circumstances, Cynthia and Violet would be trembling with fear because of Alfia's glare by now. However, the presence of the sleeping Bell in her arms shifted their focus entirely.

Cynthia and Violet: *C-CUTE!*

When Alfia noticed that the two maids were paying more attention to her sweet nephew than to her, her glare intensified, finally capturing their attention.

Violet: *Cough* F-Forgive us, Alfia-sama. But yes, we did overhear what Meteria-sama and her husband said."

Bell: Yawn...

With Bell still peacefully dozing, Alfia's anger subsided, and she decided to continue the conversation.

Alfia: Meteria, it's up to you. I'll be taking Bell to my room.
