Who Do You Like More, Mom or Dad?

r followed up, smiling slightly,

 

“If you’re having a hard time, let’s ask them to bring the things.”

 

“Bring it up?”

 

“Yes.
Bring it up so that you can sit here and choose.”

 

“Uhh.”

 

“You can’t give up yet.
You haven’t spent even half of the money the Count gave.”

 

“Aaaa.”

 

Diana groaned as she lay down on the table.
At that moment, the door of the lounge opened and someone came in.

 

‘Huh? Senir said that there’s almost no one who could come in, though?’

 

Diana, who raised her head, looked at the doorway.
The sound of heavy footsteps came and stopped in front of them.
Diana blinked.

 

“To think that I saw the person who said it was hard to meet because he was busy at the El-Corte Lounge.
This isn’t even funny.”

 

He was a young man with a voice which was obviously at the age in which one’s voice breaks.
The corner of his eyes were raised and had a sharp feeling.
He was quite handsome, but that light faded in front of Senir.

 

“What was worse, you’re not even alone?”

 

Senir, who got up from his seat, blocked her front as if he was protecting her and bowed his head.

 

“I greet Your Highness Esteban.”

 

Diana barely endured letting out a groan.

 

‘Imperial Prince!’

 

Surprised, Diana also stood up and politely bowed her head.

 

“I believe she’s a daughter whom I’ll only be meeting for the first time.
Who is it?”

 

“She is the Count’s guest.”

 

“I didn’t ask you to answer, though.”

 

An arrogant voice responded to the smooth answer.
Esteban tried to look at her, but she was hidden by Senir so she wasn’t seen clearly.

 

“Get out of the way.
Take off that not even funny mask.”

 

This time too, Senir replied.

 

“It is difficult to take off the mask, since it was the Count who wished for her to wear it.”

 

“I have already said that I didn’t ask you to answer, though.”

 

“….”

 

The atmosphere made it feel like the juice she just drank would make her have indigestion.
Diana glanced at Senir but he only shook his head slightly.
It meant that she should not step up.

 

“Your Highness, she is Count Ohrid’s guest.”

 

There was the sound of grinding one’s teeth.

 

“Great.
Great job.”

 

Esteban spoke in a drooping low voice.

 

“Send her out.”

 

“Please wait a moment.”

 

Senir grabbed Diana’s arm lightly.
To the point that she couldn’t even feel the weight.
Diana followed Senir, who was leading her.

 

When Diana looked back a little before leaving the door, she could see Esteban watching them.

 

Outside the lounge, Lord Serafina and Lord Dominic showed signs of being at a loss.
In addition, there were also those who looked to be Esteban’s escort knights.

 

“We apologize.
We couldn’t tell you in advance because His Highness told us not to say anything.”

 

Lord Dominic said.
If the Imperial Family entered while pushing with their authority, the knights couldn’t do anything.
Senir waved his hand as if he saying ‘forget it’.

 

“Lady Diana.
Please take a look around El-Corte.
Since it seems that His Highness has something to tell me, I’ll come and find you when our conversation is over.”

 

“Although I don’t really care about taking a look around…”

 

Since she hasn’t even looked at all of El-Corte yet.
Diana looked at Senir worriedly.

 

“Will it be okay?”

 

“Yes?”

 

“It seems like you’re in trouble because of me.”

 

Just who in the world was worrying about whom? But Diana was sincere.
The answer came out a half-beat late when he refuted the subtle emotions which were hovering around his toes.

 

“…Of course, you don’t have to worry.”

 

Senir sent an eye signal to Lord Serafina.

 

“Lord Serafina.”

 

“Please leave it up to me.”

 

Lord Dominic decided to stay in place and waited for Senir.
Senir, who watched Diana leave the front of the lounge together with Lord Serafina, returned to the lounge.

 

Esteban, who was in a fitting seat, opened his mouth while watching Senir approach.

 

“To think that you, who doesn’t even laugh if there is no benefit, are so devoted like that.
If someone saw it, they might think that she’s your fiance.”

 

“What is your business?”

 

He was always like that.

 

He had a mask-like face that couldn’t be read at all.

 

A person who moved thoroughly only following Ohrid’s benefits.
He was amazed at Count Ohrid for he did not know from where she obtained such a person.

 

“Your fiance has no sense of distance from Lithuania at all.”

 

It was when the Emperor exceeded the age of fifty that his grown-up children were divided into two groups.

 

The fight for the throne between the Second Imperial Prince, Robert, the resuscitation of the former Empress, and the Fourth Imperial Prince, Siegfried, the son of the current Empress.

 

“You must’ve not known that Lithuania and Lady Ovalon are beneficial to Siegfried just because they have a close relationship, do you?”

 

Esteban was on Robert’s side and Lithuania was on Siegfried’s side.

 

Lady Ovalon was planning to enter Ohrid.
So what people thought if Lady Ovalon showed intimacy with Lithuania was,

 

‘So, the next generation of Count Ohrid is on Siegfried’s side!’

 

Senir had the real power.
Even if there was no real benefit, it was a benefit to Siegfried to just have such thoughts planted in the minds of the people.

 

“Wasn’t it Ohrid’s rule to not be involved in the succession of the throne?”

 

Esteban tilted his head sharply.

 

“Why don’t you take care of your fiance?”

 

“I understand what you are worried about.”

 

“An acquaintance can’t keep track of his fiance, I can’t let…”

 

“Your Highness Esteban.”

 

Esteban was surprised when Senir cut off his words.
However, the surprise was incomparable to the shock of the words that followed.

 

“Will Count Ohrid really let Lady Ovalon enter?”

 

“…What?”
