Chapter 45
''Come on, listen,'' he lifted the teacup at my words . I felt strange because he looked somehow elegant doing so .
'Well, that's a little weird . '
Teas are expensive items, so not everyone can easily access them . The box where the tea is stored is locked . As a mercenary, if he had a rare opportunity to encounter tea, how would he be drinking tea like that? I have no choice but to be suspicious .
'You're not a runaway aristocrat, are you?'
It was when I had a faint guess about his background that he put down the tea cup and said with a cold voice;
"I don't know why the hell you're drinking this for . " I almost clicked my tongue at the figure of him who was complaining even if I offered him the best tea I had .
'Yes, a person who doesn't even know the taste of tea can't be a noble . '
Then, he broke my thoughts .
"Now, let's look at this . " After scattering for a while, I frowned .
'This guy, he really wrote it down . '
The provisions written in bad handwriting were as follows .
く1 . Juvellian should trust and follow Max's words without any condition .
2 . When the Juvellian goes out, she should let Max know where she is going . When attending a banquet or meeting, she is obligated to report it to Max .
3 . During the contract period, Juvellian should never meet another man .
4 . Juvellian meets Max for more than eight hours, four days a week . >
When I saw the article written down as if it were a strapped boss, I dropped my tongue .
'I've told you to stop caring, and I've written my private life down to the level of a temple . '
And for a moment, I opened my mouth to give my opinion .
"Hey, maybe . . . "
"Additionally, you should call me by my name . "
I only know his name for an hour, of course I am still not familiar with it . Even so, I am consciously calling his name all over the place, but I'm afraid I'll hear you point out that I said something wrong .
"Then, Max will also call my name in the future . " At my words, he paused and nodded softly .
"Okay . "
Looking at it, I began to write amendments .
'It's so messy that I don't know what to fix first . '
I squeezed what he wrote, corrected it on new paper, and moved it .
く1 . Employers are obligated to meet the needs of their employees to the extent possible .
2 . Employers and employees respect each other's privacy .
3 . In absence, employers and employees are obliged to report their destinations to each other .
4 . During the term of the contract, any romantic relationship between the employer and the employee is prohibited .
5 . Employees pay attention to what they say and do in front of others' eyes .
6 . The place of the date shall be agreed on beforehand, preferably in a place with many people .
The above provisions are subject to change according to circumstances, specifying that the contract can be terminated with mutual consent . The term of the contract is completed when Juvellian feels secure about the cancellation of the marriage proposal with the Crown Prince .
Employer: Jubelian Eloy Floyen
Employee: Max>
When a perfect amendment was made, I pushed it to him .
''Here you go . Read this and tell me if there's anything you want to change . '' He took the paper from me . Soon he said, squinting his eyes .
''What is this?''
''It's an amendment . Come on . Read it step by step and if you don't like it, tell me, ···,"
He said, tearing up the contract . "I don't approve of this . "
At that moment, I took a deep breath .
'Did you just tear what I wrote?'
If you don't like it, you can tell it . The appearance of him tearing the paper first, was certainly not normal .

'Yes, when I think about it, that human has never been normal in the first place . '
After taking care of him for a few days, he would quickly leave without notice . He left without answering me . I was also nervous often .
No matter how much I cry out for rats, at least I know how to respect the other party . So I took care of him so that he was not uncomfortable . But that man was lacking in consideration throughout his time with me .
'I must see him often in the future . . . '
The reason I closed my eyes for his rude behavior is that I don't often encounter him . However, since we were in a contract relationship now, I would see him often, but if I already creaked, the answer would be obvious .
"If you don't like it that much, I can't help it . Let's end our contract here . " At Juvellian's words, Max questioned his ears .
"What do you mean? Weren't you trying to avoid being engaged to the Crown Prince?" He asked, but what came back was a cold gaze .
"It can't be helped . If it doesn't fit from the beginning like this . . . . We will only get tired of enduring each other if we keep going . "
Until now, Juvellian only showed a desperate appearance when she was talking about her engagement to the Crown Prince, so Max never though she would suddenly void the contract like this . But now the desperate appearance was nowhere to be found . There was only a stern look in her eyes that looked like she had already reviewed the question . Suddenly, Max felt like his throat was dry and burning .
"Don't think hastily . " At Max's hard words, Juvellian sighed quietly, then opened her mouth .
"Thinking hastily? The reason you tore the contract is that you don't want to compromise . "
"No, I . . . . " Max's lips were squirting . Throughout his life as Crown Prince, he tore up the documents he didn't like . Then the lieutenants would have come up with a new report on their own . No one has ever pointed out the act of tearing up documents . They just apologized for their poor report .
'Don't you just have to write it again?'
Then, Juvellian said to Max .
"Do you feel good when someone ignore your opinion?"
" . . . . " At Max's unanswered question, Juvellian internally sighed deeply and opened her mouth .
"The others are the same . It hurts my pride and makes me feel bad if I think the other person ignores my opinion . " Is it because the surroundings are calm? The sound of her voice came in exceptionally well .
'Is that so?'
His lieutenants and his men worked for him as if they were right, and Max used them . This is because it was natural for the ruling position .
"Is that why you're upset?''
His voice dropped slightly low . But Juvellian nodded with a calm face .

''Yes, I didn't feel good, to be honest . ''
'I'm helping you, but you look so proud . '
It was when Max was keeping his mouth shut for some reason . Soon he had no choice but to frown .
"But since you don't like it, I thought I'd quit . " Max intuitively felt it . If he was stubborn here, he may never see Juvelian again .
'Who's afraid of something like that? I don't care . . . '
His mouth betrayed his will before he could finish thinking .
"It was my fault just a while ago . "
It was strange to see his habit of apologizing so gently . Was it really the same person who just said he didn't want to apologize to father?
"As long as you know . " The negotiations were surprisingly easy . Because his dissatisfaction was more trivial than I thought .
'I didn't put my name in it . '
I sighed and showed him the contract .
''Come on, are you done now?''
''Yes . '' I wrote another contract with the same content in his positivity, and then turned it over .
''Sign below,'' he paused and gulped . ''Well, is there anything else?'' He held up his quill pen again and signed awkwardly .
'Well, it's as if he's just made his autograph . '
For a moment, I erased a wild guess .
'Well, maybe it's because he don't have much to sign . '
Then his voice broke my imagination .
"By the way, are there any banquets scheduled to attend?"
"Oh, I'm going to attend a tea party soon . " He stared at me and nodded his head .

"I see . Do you know who's planning to participate?"
"Just the acquaintances of my acquaintance, in the aristocratic circle . " In my reply he made a rather serious face and asked again .
"Are you sure only aristocratic women will come?''
"I told you so . Why do you keep ··Ah!" A good idea flashed through my mind at the moment .
'Yes, I could nail it sooner . '
I used to care about rumors about me because of my father's wits . But now that my father is trying to sell me off as the mad prince's bride, it doesn't matter if I have a good image or not . A bad image would be useful if you wanted to be unfit as a bride of the Crown Prince .
''Max, can you take me there that day?''
" . . . Why?" I answered his reticent reply .
"Oh, I'd like to say you're my boyfriend . It's all right, isn't it?" His expression got strange as soon as I finished . The slight frown seems to be reluctant . ''Oh, of course you can refuse,'' he said, nodding slowly .
''Okay . I'll pick you up when I'm done . '' I tried to nod my head at the remark, and I was stunned .
'I don't know if he have clothes . '
It is enough to make the false rumor that she is dating an unidentified man true in the first place . It doesn't matter what he wears . However, I wanted to show him to others, saying that rice cakes look good to look at are good to eat .
'He's helping me, and I can buy you as much clothes as I like . '
''You're going shopping with me tomorrow . '' I could see him with a slight frown at my words . I smiled at him, and I knew it was going to happen .
'You're supposed to decorate it so that anyone can see that you're handsome . '
''Hey, Max . Turn around . " Max sighed . There have already been dozens of changed clothes . I felt like a doll that children played with . The master of the costume room laughed and groaned .
"I've never seen anyone so well-matched in a sample like this . " I'm sure it was a compliment, but it was very unpleasant for Max .
'How long do we have to do this?'
At that time when Max was crumpled up on a tough face, Jubelian was seen smiling satisfactorily .
"That's right . Fashion is complete because it's face, so it certainly is . " Obviously, it's self-assessment, but strangely, I wasn't angry this time . My heart tickled strangely, and the corners of my mouth kept going up . Soon, however, Max had no choice but to frown at what was said by Juvellian .
"Oh, do you have clothes that are a little bit more colorful than that?'
