Chapter 48
Is it because of the inner closeness I built up with her? Somehow I was glad to see her and nodded slightly and bowed my neck . But she turned her head slightly because she hadn't seen me . Then she whispered to the person sitting next to her . Unconsciously, I looked next to it, and almost frowned .
'Why is Mikhail here?'
If you ask me to describe how I feel when I meet my ex-boyfriend at a meeting with friends who have came dressed up as well as possible, I can speak briefly .
'Well, I don't like it but I don't feel anything . '
Maybe because I don't have any regrets? To be honest, it's embarrassing that I didn't get a word . But as I looked at his face, I didn't care .
'But he will be uncomfortable with me . '
I turned my attention, thinking I should stay quiet as much as I can so that I don't bump into him . At that time, I could hear a sad voice .
"Long time no see, Juvellian . " Maybe it's been a while since we broke up? Or is it because of the joy of being freed from me? Mikhail's expression seemed slightly upset .
'Well, is it okay to see me now?'
I thought for a moment, but I soon denied it .
'Maybe he's got eyes on him . '
As the main character of the novel, his image is very good . sweet, kind, and well-mannered . That's why you can't draw a line on me .
'Now that it's like this, I'll draw the line . '
My image has been destroyed before, so it won't matter if it's ruined any more . Honestly, I don't want to be nice to him . Soon there was an insensitive voice coming out of my mouth .
"Yes, it's been a long time . " My voice contains no emotion . It was a mechanical voice that I couldn't believe came out of my mouth . I didn't want to see him anymore, so I turned my head towards Max next to me .
'Well, you don't look very happy . '
Somehow you don't look happy, it seems that you were very uncomfortable here .
"See you a little later,'' Go back to the wagon and turn there to rest, and he glances at me . I think I was nervous because I thought he would grumble in front of other people . Then, his mouth opened .
"Have a good time . . . " When I heard a nice low and medium tone, I opened my eyes . Although I almost spoke informally like a habit, it was an unexpected gift . Proud of it, I couldn't hold back my laughter .
"Oh, yes . Thank you . " In my answer he tried to turn away .
"Well, wait a minute!" Everyone's voice turned this neck to the person who dissuaded him . Embarrassed, Rose opened her mouth with a blush . "I'd like to make a suggestion . We have an unexpected guest at today's tasting, and I think it'll be okay if we add one more person . "
Rose's sudden suggestion makes me angry,
'Oh, I'm not okay . . . '
He did a good job just before, but honestly, I didn't believe in Max . He would be like that, because he's a bomb-like person who never knows when to explode . Moreover, since these meetings are elite, they tend to be reluctant to accept uninvited guests . I wouldn't even greet him, but I didn't have to live with frown .
"Oh, I appreciate your hospitality, but . . . " I tried to reject Rose's offer . But .
"Yes, I agree . "
"I agree . " I frowned at the unexpected flow .
'We are outsiders, how is this okay?'
Honestly, I was embarrassed . How could the nobles gathered today accept this kind of thing?
'Well, Max is such a nice person that he says my frowned clothes are pretty . '
How can I avoid this sudden situation? When I was struggling . There was a voice that saved me .
"I disagree," ironically, it was Mikhail who cried out against it . He continued, staring at me with cold eyes . "Aren't you already an exception to that?" Of course, I am the exception, but this man was absurd . However, the reason I did not rebel was that I was welcoming this situation . At that time, Rose said as if rebelling .
"The case is different, isn't it? It's a princess, I got consent in advance . " Of course, I appreciated your willingness to side with me, but I was at a loss at the moment when I had to release Max .
'Oh, my God, what am I going to do?'

Three people over there are already saying they're fine . On the other hand, Mikhail is the only one who opposes . At this rate, I was going to have to take care of Max . Then, someone who had been silent all this time opened his mouth .
"I disagree . Please refrain from favoritism that goes against equity because it will only put her in trouble, Rose . " The nameless ear girl I met in the dressing room . Although she cried out against it, it worked out well this time, no matter what the degree of her .
'Oh, I think we have a good match . '
I opened my mouth .
"Just like you two said . I'm actually very touched by your invitation . " When the euphemism came out of my mouth, Rose stared at me with a disappointed look . 'But,·· . . '' I thanked her, for fear of being offended . "Thank you for thinking of my lover . But he's not used to it because he's someone from the country . "
"Oh, is that so?"
"Yes, for that reason, he'd rather take a rest in the carriage . Right?" I winked at Max as I spoke . Come on, back to me, but he just glared at me with a dissatisfied look .
'No, this guy's on the trigger again . What's wrong?' (tn; Well, you just told the crown prince to wait for you in a carriage . )
It was when I was looking at him as if he was a child in a rebellious age .
"Well, he's the partner of the princess, and I'll make sure he has a lot of room to wait for . " At that kindness, I could only find out who she was .
"Thank you, Lady Terrence," she answered my thanks with an expressionless face .
''Don't mention it,'' I think I was even more fond of her for her coolness .
Veronica frowned, recalling what had just happened .
'What's the big deal about having a good-looking face so far . . . Everyone notices and is crazy?'
She didn't want to give a room to a man whose identity was unclear, but she couldn't help it . She thought she'd hear a rant if ehe didn't give the Princess's lover a room .
'He's a petty commoner, but stupid . '

She thought so for a while . When Max's figure came to mind, Veronica felt her face getting hot . She stared at Mikhail urgently . He seemed a little tired, but even it only highlighted his beautiful face .
'Well I have to admit that he is even more handsome than Mikhail but . . . '
However, Veronica frowned at where Mikhail was staring .
'As expected, Mikhail is uncomfortable with this because of her . '
At that time, Mikhail's gentle voice was directed at her .
"Lady Veronica, the tea smells very good,"
Veronica replied, blushing at the sight of Mikhail smiling at her .
"Oh, I'm so glad you liked it . " Mikhail, who was smiling at Veronica, looked at Juvelian's reaction .
'I'm sure you're jealous, right?'
As expected, Juvelian looked at the two and sighed .
Mikhail saw it and raised the corners of his mouth .
'Then, no matter how hard I try, you are in my grasp . '
When I saw Miss Terence, who was blushing, I was sighing .
'Why did she end up liking Mikhail?'
I wanted to stop her from falling into Mikhail's spell . Mikhail is destined to love only the princess, so she would only end up disapointed .
'Yes, as Juvellian did in the original story . '

I felt sympathy for her for her suffering from the same disease as I followed my past . I almost frowned after a sip of tea .
'Well, I think they made the wrong tea, ····· . '
Judging from the smell and search, it seemed like white tea was boiled, but it was a bit bitter because of the hot water . For a moment when I was thinking of being honest, I kept my mouth shut .
'Well, yeah . It will only hurt their feelings . '
As I have said, she won't listen to me anyway . Therefore, all I could do for her now was prayer .
'Please don't become the evil girl . '
I drank the bitter tea and wished her a good farewell .
"You can wait here . " The place where Max arrived under the guidance of the servant was another drawing-room of the count .
'I can't believe you told a member of the imperial family to stay in such a shabby place . '
He was complaining for a while, but he tried to hold back the steam because the furniture and interior accessories were high-quality . But when he recalled Mikhail, who had been acting irritably all the time, he was furious .
Contrary to the rumor that he was annoyed at Juvellian, Mikhail's eyes staring at her were stained with a very strong obsession . And when the gaze reached Max, it turned cold . Yeah, it was as if he was warning me not to covet the spot .
'You look at me like that . '
He had fierce eyes when he heard Freya's report that Princess Floyen was very fond of Lord Mikhail . Max heard she followed him around and acted regardless of her reputation, but in a way, she seamed to had came back to her senses . The sudden surge of annoyance and nervousness kept Max going back and forth in the room . Then, a window came into Max's eyes . The windows, which were quite large in size, seemed sufficient for people to come in and out .
He remembered what Juvellian had said in his ear, but Max ignored it and opened the window .
'Yes, I can't just wait here . '
