I Became the Childhood Friend of the Northern Duchess - Chapter 202
202 – Peace Does Not Wait
The story ended well, and the members of the Bilhark family decided to first come to Hespania and decide where to live.
There wasn’t as much luggage to pack as I thought, and things were done quickly so I was able to leave for Hespania after four days.
Helen, who had been spending quality time alone in her castle reading a book, quickly rushed out of her room when she heard this news.
In fact, it was because Edgar colluded with Ariel and did not tell her about this in order to surprise her.
Crash!
“Ed, is it true that Katria is coming!?”
The two people, who were having a leisurely tea time after finishing work that had to be completed in the morning, were started by Helen who came in without saying anything.
But she soon realized for some reason that she gave her space and added her explanation.
It was Edgar who had to open his mouth because Ariel was poking her in the side of her.
“Yes, I told you a while ago and it progressed quite quickly. “Your father probably already knows.”
Ariel, who was listening from the side her her, burst into laughter at the relaxed tone of voice her, which was quite different from when dealing with Yulken.
Maybe that’s why Yulken told her the other day that she felt that her Edgar was uncomfortable with her and expressed her serious concerns.
‘I think it’s because I’ve seen her mom longer.’
Even if you say that, Yulken probably won’t agree.
Still, she thought that the two of them were quite close for a future father-in-law and a son-in-law, so she never bothered to tell Edgar about this.
“How come you didn’t tell me this news…” “?” ! Ha, anyway, I’m happy and I’m glad I can spend an hour with this.”
Meanwhile, Helen sighed in relief and jumped in her place, folding her hands to her chest.
It was a pretty sight that didn’t match her age, but perhaps because she was so beautiful, I didn’t feel any sense of disparity.
In Edgar’s opinion, she was exaggerating a bit and most people would not believe her even if she was Ariel’s older sister.
“Why does your mother like you more than me?”
“It’s always a pleasure to meet her friend. “It was a good idea to know this would happen and build it in advance.”
“… Yes? “What do you mean, you built it?”
Edgar’s eyes twitched at her unexpected sentence and he asked back with a dumbfounded expression.
Helen, smiling triumphantly, waved her finger provocatively and told him something he didn’t even know.
“Have you ever seen a new building that has been under construction for some time?”
“Yes, I saw it, but…”
Since the site of the castle site was so large, it wouldn’t be surprising if one or two new buildings were built, so Edgar thought, ‘Ah, I guess there’s something new coming up.’
But was there a hidden use in that building?
“Actually, that building was built for your parents. “I thought there would be many inconveniences in many ways because there were a lot of people coming and going within the castle.”
“…”
In short, this means that this huge castle, which seems to have no problem with hundreds of more people living in it, is being left behind and a new residence is being prepared just for his parents.
Even though it was called the Grand Duchy of Amman, Edgar was dumbfounded because he thought the scale was too big.
“He didn’t even say a word to me…”
“It’s fun if you tell me about this later.” Besides, your father or Katria don’t plan on coming, so if we’re the one to bring it up first, they might change their minds because they feel sorry.”
Just as Edgar hid the news of her family’s arrival from Helen, she also hid this fact.
When they ended up in a situation where they both attacked each other, the two people burst into laughter without anyone knowing who would go first.
“This is it. “What were you planning to do if you two decided not to come?”
Then, suddenly curious, Edgar opened his mouth again.
There must have been no certainty that the two would come, so what kind of confidence did they have to build the house first?
If his parents had decided not to come, he wouldn’t have been able to tear down the building he had built.
In response, Helen, uncharacteristic of her, made a quite reckless remark.
“If it doesn’t work out, I was thinking of giving it to your newlywed home. Even if I work in the castle, I thought it would be good to have a private place to spend time.”
“… “The newlywed house is so grand.”
It seems like a hassle to go there every evening after work in the first place.
However, this may have been Edgar’s only idea of her, but Ariel stood next to her and agreed with Helene’s words of her, saying, ‘I guess that wasn’t a bad idea.’
Regardless, they are a mother and daughter who have many similarities.
“Please tell me to stay in the castle for the time being.”
“That’s right. Anyway, thank you for your undeserved consideration.”
Who will personally build a building for the in-laws’ safety and invite them to stay in the castle, their home?
This was truly possible thanks to Helen’s merciful heart.
Knowing Edgardoy, she bowed deeply and expressed her gratitude, and a happy smile appeared on her lips.
“Hehe, what do you think she would have said if she heard him say this?”
“You must have humbly said that you received more from me.”
“You know very well. “My answer is the same.”
Helen did not just think that he had done much for her after coming to Hespania.
Ever since she was young, he was the one who silently stood by Ariel’s side when she was alone, and sometimes stopped her when she was heading down the wrong path and did not hesitate to scold her.
Especially at that time, Helen had a lot of guilt toward her daughter and was unable to discipline her, so she was even more grateful for Edgar’s presence.
If it weren’t for him, Ariel might have become an ordinary, overbearing, worldly aristocrat that can be found everywhere by now.
As I was watching with warm eyes, holding the hands of the man who was like my soon-to-be son-in-law, Ariel broke the mood and intervened.
Even though they were Amman’s parents, he couldn’t just sit back and watch them create a warm atmosphere, let alone taking up time with Edgar.
“Mom, leave it at that and quickly give Ed up to me.”
“You always called her mother until this morning. Has that new title changed again?”
“Hmph, if I don’t do something like this, he won’t give it back.”
When Ariel pouted her lips and held out both hands asking for something to be returned, Helen smiled and slowly turned her body.
“Then I guess I’ll have to leave and find my lover, too. Have a good time.”
I think someone is doing this because they have no one to lean on.
From noble mtl dot come
Helen, who felt embarrassed when her daughter her her, whom she had raised for the best of her life, became attached to her son-in-law without knowing anything about her mother her her, clearly showed her uncharacteristic anger.
“Joe, take care back home. “Mother.”
“Okay, take a seat. Where are you going?”
“Man, what did you do to your mother…” ” …”
“There’s not much time left for recess. “Just sit down.”
Ariel just pulled her lover’s hand and told her to come by her side her her her.
It is usually said that men are immature even as they get older, but it seems to be the opposite here.
Helene glanced at the two people out of the corner of her eye and left her room with a happy smile.
*
The day before the Bilhark family arrived in Hespania.
Dana, who was carrying out a mission given by Ariel and Edgar in the imperial palace, walked briskly, avoiding the attention of others.
“Haha…”
Even during this time, she was trying to make her expression her look calm, but she could never hide the impatience felt in her legs and breathing her. This means that there is not enough room.
“Huh…”
Dana’s body trembled as she remembered Albrich talking to her just a moment ago.
The reason why it was particularly difficult to control her breathing that had built up to the tip of her chin was because the inexplicable sense of threat she felt from that man was still lingering throughout her body her her her her.
‘It was that man, Marquis Bertus.’
It was just as Edgar said.
The saying to be careful if someone you normally don’t talk to suddenly approach you.
Moreover, considering what her friend and colleague Leshi, had said not long ago, all the evidence pointed to him being behind it.
‘First I made an excuse and ran away, but what happens next?’
There was no sign of Albrich following her, but she never knew.
Moreover, she had to perform her work in the same place tomorrow and the day after tomorrow.
It would be impossible to avoid the situation forever, making various excuses, and if situations like this happen one after another, I don’t know what kind of force they will use on the other side.
‘There is no place to hide. Should I ask Lessi?’
Her original home is in the eastern region, very far away from Hildek.
This means that even if you are looking for a place to shelter for the time being, it is not a good idea.
The only possibility would be to ask Leshi, who has a family in the imperial capital and has wide feet, but if she did that, she might also get caught.
Is there no other way to keep it like this? Will she die at the hands of that man?
As she felt her her body her her trembling due to the growing anxiety inside her, a moment of determination appeared in her eyes her.
And then,
Mate!
She tapped her cheek vigorously with both hands to wake herself up and nodded her head firmly.
Anyway, my life was barely saved thanks to the mercy of those two people, so what am I trying to save now?
By the time she was given this mission, she had already given up her own safety.
If she could use this as an opportunity to get some information from him and pass it on to them, she would have done her job.
‘Okay, let’s go back.’
Before she knew it, she had reached quite a corner.
If you happen to meet Albrich here, it will be a real death.
If you’re fighting like this, it would be a hundred or a thousand times better to go back to where you were and face him using other people’s gaze as a shield.
Just as she was about to strengthen her will and turn her head with that thought,
“You’ve come so far.”
“… !?”
Albrich approached her without any sign of her, grabbed her from behind, and spoke to her.
