Chapter 19│Read translated stories and daily updates at: Awebstories.com
Today, when Leanhardt-sama came to protest Miri’s going to the monastery, His Royal Highness Alfred was supposed to visit our house in the first place.
We thought that Leanhardt-sama would go home because of the recent incident, but to our surprise, he wanted to meet His Highness Prince Alfred.
My father tried to stop Leanhardt-sama, but he did not listen to my father.
His Royal Highness, Alfred, looked confused when Leinhardt-sama told him that he had something to say, but he agreed to meet him.
I hope that nothing will happen, but on the other hand, I have a feeling that something will happen, and that gives me a headache….
“Leanhardt-kun wants to see me? I don’t know why, but let’s hear it.”
His Highness Alfred turned his sapphire eyes on Leanhardt-sama and took a listening posture.
The dignified expression on his face was very serious, but that’s why I was worried….
I’m afraid that Leanhardt-sama’s story might upset His Highness.
“No, Your Highness, Alfred. Please don’t stare at me like that. I… No, I’m trying to tell you a good story.”
“Don’t preface it. Please be direct and concise. I have studied the language reasonably well, but I want to avoid misunderstandings.”
I can see that His Highness Alfred is feeling a little frustrated.
When he says “direct and concise,” he implies that he wants to end the conversation quickly.
Leanhardt-sama, however, did not care and started talking with a smirk on his face.
“I heard that His Highness Alfred had fallen in love with Miri, my fiancée. Miri also adores His Highness and would like to be united with him. Therefore, I will step aside and play a part in the marriage between Miri and His Highness—”
“What are you talking about? Is it that I’m in love with Charlotte’s sister? Hahaha, no, of course not. No, it’s rude to laugh at someone’s fiancée. I’m sorry.”
” …What?”
Leanhardt-sama’s story was so outrageous that His Highness Alfred could not help but burst out laughing.
No, no, no, it’s far from true that His Highness Alfredo is in love with Mirim…
Leanhardt-sama was silent and then said, “What?” … Leanhardt-sama rolls his eyes, and his face is getting paler and paler.
It seemed that he was wrong.
“Leanhardt-kun, I can’t believe my ears. But I don’t think I misheard you. Because you look like you’ve lost it. and you’re expressing everything with your face.”
“No, I mean… Your Highness? Then, when you called Miri cute, you didn’t mean…”
With his voice trembling, with vacant eyes and an expression that could have turned him to ash, Leanhardt-sama told him that His Highness Alfred had called Miri “cute.”
No, that’s… Well… Not cute or anything like that…
“I didn’t say “cute.” I said, “like a monkey.” I was being sarcastic. And she said… she interpreted it as “cute.” which I didn’t understand.”
“Like a monkey? Cute? Haaaa?!”
“N-No, what do you mean by sarcasm, Alfred-sama likes me, but he’s too shy to…”
“Shut up! Stupid woman!”
“Ahhhhhh—!”
Hearing the truth, Leanhardt-sama gets up and slaps Miri on the cheek.
No, it is crazy of you to take Miri’s words seriously and to say that you would give up your fiancée because of them, and it is disgusting to hit a woman in the face—.
Miri holds her cheek and is stunned, not understanding what just happened. Alfred-sama was more irritated than before.
