BXBX NOVEL Chapter 118
“I’m sorry to take up so much of your time. I wish I could get someone else to show me around. Now that you have a family member who can serve as a worthy substitute.” (Mikhael)
“There is no way that someone other than the head of the family would be able to guide His Imperial Highness.” (Alexei)
Both of their smiles remained unfazed.
“Then I guess the boys will all be moving along together. I appreciate it and look forward to working with you.” (Mikhael)
…Oh, I’m no good at this.
In front of these two, Ekaterina sighed inwardly with a smile plastered on her face.
I know that the conversation between big brother and the prince has a meaning behind it, but I can’t read the meaning. What is it? Does the phrase “I want to see the armor” serve as some kind of code? The conversation between a Royal and a Noble is very deep.
Ekaterina was disappointed, but not in the way she thought. She had been a disappointment to all her friends in this area since her previous life, and she wondered if the day would ever come when she would be able to break free from her strong sense of self-disappointment.
“Ekaterina, I’ll see you later.” (Mikhael)
“Please enjoy yourself.” (Alexei)
Ekaterina inwardly wondered why there was a slight feeling of exhaustion on Mikhael’s back as he walked away, but this was quickly erased when Alexei, who had almost left with Mikhael, quickly came back and leaned in close and whispered.
“Graham was just complimenting you on your fine display of ladyship. You’re doing very well for a first timer.”
He smiled sweetly as he bent down a little and put his face close to his sister’s ear, causing the ladies behind Ekaterina, whom all of them behaved as if they had been hit by a cross hail of bullets, to groan and blush, and Ekaterina to swoon.
I’m so happy to be praised! No, technically, Graham praised me, but I’m twice as happy to hear it from my big brother! Now I can do my best even in my weakest field!
“Please entertain the ladies. Not only that, but everything in the mansion is yours to do with as you please.”
“Thank you, big brother.” (Ekaterina)
Then let’s have a secret event for the girls.
“Why don’t we all take a look at the ladies’ weapons while the gentlemen take a look at the armors?” (Ekaterina)
With that, Ekaterina invited the girls to enter the mansion. She took them to a hall that was large enough to hold a small party.
Ekaterina opened the door. And then…
“Oh, my!” (Random Noble)
“Oh, wonderful, it’s gorgeous!” (Random Noble)
The girls all shrieked and squealed in unison.
The hall that Nona had led me into before was filled with luxurious dresses today. However, all the armored doors that had been closed that day were now open, and the room was bright, and the air was not stagnant.
“These are the dresses that once belonged to my grandmother.” (Ekaterina)
“This is the one…!” (Random Noble)
If they were convinced, it meant that the old hag’s fancy dress was pretty well known in the aristocratic society. That’s right, the designer, Camilla-san, said it was famous too.
“Lady Ekaterina, may I have a closer look?” (Random Noble)
“Of course. Moreover, if you don’t mind.” (Ekaterina)
Looking around at all the girls, Ekaterina said clearly enough for everyone to hear.
“If you like what you see here, you may take it home along with you.” (Ekaterina)
“!” (Random Noble)
A silent but enthusiastic response came from all of them.
