"He's eliminated the risk once, so it should be reopened. Would the security be tight, wouldn't it? Above all, the Crown Prince said he would take care of it himself."
"As expected, you think so."
"Yes, this is what his Highness does. It might be a good idea to boost his investment and expand the business in the future. It should be enough to be known to other countries."
"I agree. Would it be nice to use it as a symbol of the capital?"
"Right. How about building a statue of the Crown Prince?"
"I've heard rumors that he is a handsome man. That sounds like a great idea."
Having heard Mielle's very ordinary and simple proposal, Lane responded with a loud response. She couldn't hide her joy since her thoughts were accepted and continued to make a suggestion that everyone could think of, and Lane replied, praising that it was an excellent idea. She seemed to feel her thoughts and opinions were as great as ever as always.
'Was Mielle with no keen notice, like that?'
Mielle couldn't even feel Lane's disappointment. Although he didn't express his feelings, he didn't go deep into her thoughts and opinions and only responded appropriately. It was almost as if the count was the one who heard the foolish opinions of Mielle.
'You asked him to set a statue of the Crown Prince! What a foolish idea it was!'
It was so childish. The Crown Prince was not a hero who put a flag on the conquest, but what kind of statue was she going to build? She was so childish that Aria laughed at it.
"... sister?"
Then Mielle responded straight away. She seemed to have been paying attention even if she had pretended not to do so. It was worth it because Aria had taken the eyes of Oscar and Cain. Aria was also bothered about what Mielle and Lane were talking about while she was away.
Aria wiped her lips with a handkerchief and apologized briefly as all the attention was paid to her because her name was called.
"I'm sorry. I was drinking tea and..."
"Are you all right? There are such times."
Aria nodded calmly because Sarah asked with a worried face. It was obvious that she was being mocked, but Sarah, who only knew the lovely Aria, seemed to be just worried about her.
"Do you have anything to say?"
But that wasn't for Mielle and Lane. It was appropriate to say that she was being mocked because it happened while they were talking. He asked why Aria was being mocked because he was bored and disappointed in his conversation with Mielle.
"Well, I don't know if I can join."
"Anyone in the House is free to make their own decisions."
'Alas, how boring would you be when you talked to Mielle and get an opinion from a wicked woman? You came here to get her heart with a heap of wealth, but you couldn't resist boredom, so you talk to the daughter of a humble prostitute first. Wouldn't your master be angry and resentful if he knew?'
"Well... it's simple, but I'd like to show my thoughts."
"Yes, please."
Lane replied with a tone of whether he expected something or not. It was because of Aria's reasoning that she had shown him once in a while. Since she was a vulgar woman of low birth and the rumors were not ordinary, he seemed to wonder if her previous sharp reasoning was a coincidence. Nevertheless, his eyes glowed with anticipation just in case.
