I stand up and return to the venue .
It took me quite some time to recover, perhaps Bern and Rudy may be looking for me .
While sighing, I moved my heavy legs forward, and . . an unexpected appearance came in sight .
"Oh, Iris,"
That was the figure of the person I do not want to see the most at the moment .
Yuri was smiling like a perfect innocent, delicate and honest lady .
"Ms . Yuri . . . . . . What happened that you're in such a place? I think that your highness is looking for you . "
"I think so too, though . . . . I have a little business with you"
What the heck does she want now!, my blood was boiling again, and my eyebrows start to crease .
She approached me rapidly with a light footstep, and gently licked her lips near my ear .
"Have you seen it? My . . . and Dan . . relationship . . "
Half smiling like a naughty little kid . . . .
However, she surprised me to jump back to her previous position suddenly, as soon as she said it .
"Well, it's good, I don't think anyone around me would believe what you say anyway . "
She laughs with a giggle sound .
Looking at that figure, a cold and nauseating feeling arouse me, as if a snake is crawling on my body to attack me .
Her words are the most cruel, poisonous thing I ever saw .
. . . . . . If I make a fuss about it, there must be reliable evidence, so now, to defeat her, I must act in the opposite way of what she is expecting me to .

"Do you really think it? Because you were lonesome without me in the kingdom, so I asked the queen . . to play with you, I asked your friends to not let you be lonely . "
I bite my lips .
Otherwise, it would seem like I'm crying out this black feeling that is rising up in my body .
"Don't you think that you should better look around yourself a little more?"
I left quickly .
I clasp my trembling fists and stand on the hall .
. . . . . . How long have you been in the bathroom?
"Sister, what have you done in there to spend so much time?"
"You have a bad face, are you not sick?"
Bern and Rudy were looking for me everywhere worried .
Looking at their appearances, tears are about to overflow .
. . . . . . I scolded myself for being so silly .
Do not cry . What would you solve crying . . . . . .
"I'm okay . I am sorry, I felt a little bit dizzy, that is why I went to the balcony to have some air . "
"Is not it better for you to take a break instead of being here then? do you want us to accompany you?"
"No, it's okay now . Let's go back to the house . "
I started walking while I urged them to not be concerned anymore with me .
I started walking while I urged them to not be concerned anymore with me .
I laugh, and said thanks to them .
Lost sentences and a crying expression . Whatever sad things I feel now, no mater how much is shaking my heart, I have to hide it under the mask of a smile .
. . . . . . I am keeping the name and fame of the Duke of Almeria now, and I have to do well for my father .
You have to find out Iris . In this place, the influential figures of nobility that will help you grow the territory and stabilize the situation of the Duke's house . And bring the power of those relationships .
I tell myself, and try not to think anymore about what happened .
We must use our fame, to increase the presence, increase our own value .
Because I keep now the role of my mother .
I must dominate the field . People gather to hear a lot of things, and also to disseminate convenient information for our home .
To show the power of the Duke of Almeria, its existence, that is my duty now . And in this battleground, to survive .
