Eugene visits the Shradinza Household as requested.
Eunice pulled Timber to welcome her brother and happily clung to Eugene as he stepped off the carriage. "Brother welcome back! I miss you so much!"
Eugene's face softened as he patted his little sister's face.
"Well, brother miss you too."
Timber smiles, "Eunice has been bothering Euric these past few days since she hasn't seen you for a while. Seems like being the future grand duchess is tough."
Eugene hummed and was about to hug Timber but froze. Timber didn't see his reluctance and just tilted his head then waved his hand, offering a gesture of inviting a guest inside. The proper action of a soon-to-be Marchioness of the Shradinza Household.
"Are you getting used to the Household?"
Timber nodded his head and sighed, "Though it's still a bit awkward for me to marry the brother of my friend." After all, there's no love in this arrangement, and he's concerned about the love life of Euric if they get married. He's the only one at an advantage in this marriage. Timber still thinks it's not fair to the other party.
"Don't overthink. Besides brother also needs this marriage."
The Count is already calm and has even sent a letter to his brother, stating that he'll offer a dowry and agree to the marriage. He has also sent Klius to stay within the academy's walls and withdraw Timber's enrollment, so right now, Timber is solely focusing on household lessons such as fulfilling his role as a wife and the marchioness.
"I'm receiving letters from Father, he said that my mother is recovering well."
Timber's eyes started to water.
He thought he would lose his mother, and he had been anxious while staying at the Shradinza Household. He wanted to go back to Rozan's Manor, but he didn't want to be caught by his brother, knowing how scary it is to be locked away. Fortunately, Eugene was there to save him, avoiding his fate of being under his step-brother's control.
"That's good. You can now rest assured while staying here."
After all, the Count has no idea that his son is poisoning his wife, and now that he has found out, he can't help but feel disappointed in Klius, who almost took away the person he cares about. Now, unless it's the Count, no one is allowed to go near the Countess, and even the doctor and healer are under observation whenever they visit the Madam.
Upon entering the manor, he saw that nothing changed.
The only difference is that there is no presence of an elder.
Their grandparents are dead, and their relatives are just a bunch of greedy individuals who wanted to hook his brother. Unfortunately for them, Euric is not someone who is easy to manipulate or be swayed by words. They might try to visit the manor sometimes in the name of visiting relatives, but Euric would only sneer and make them wait for an hour as the price of bargaining without sending a proper letter of visitation.
"Young master, welcome back."
Eugene paused when he saw Vincent and couldn't help but raise his eyebrow.
"Hmm. Where is Raphael?"
Vincent lowered his gaze, "Raphael is in the dining hall checking the meal."
Eugene strode past Vincent with an air of frigidity, making her way through the living room. The surrounding servants instinctively lowered their heads, their bodies trembling as the recollection of their past mistreatment of the second young master loomed over them. With the former Marquis now in exile and Eugene poised to ascend as the future grand duchess of the grand dukedom, a palpable shift had occurred. No one dared to scoff at the once-unfavored young master in their midst.
