The Blond Male Lead is Too Much - Chapter 36
Only Ran(o)vel dot com
As I opened the living room door, a familiar face greeted me.
“Miss Shailene!”
The only maid in the hellish Charophet household who took Shailene’s side.
Mandy came to visit.
He patted her shoulder as she smiled with tears in her eyes.
“It’s been a while, Mandy. I’m sorry I left without saying goodbye. How have you been?”
Mandy nodded, sniffling.
“I was worried a lot about where the missing girl was and how she was doing, but I’m glad she looks so good.”
“It’s all thanks to you. Thank you.”
Thanks to Mandy opening the door and letting me go, I was able to escape safely.
I did secretly think it would have been nice if she had come too… … .
His appearance, with its obvious signs of hardship, and his anxious expression were ominous.
“But why did you suddenly come to see me in such a hurry? What’s going on?”
“That’s true… … .”
After the Duke’s party, there were articles about me in several newspapers.
Mandy overheard the count and his daughter getting furious at this, so she found out where I was and came running in a hurry.
“The count was furious and said he would go to the capital right away to capture the young lady. He said that if he brought her to the count’s territory, he would marry her off immediately… … .”
Mandy held my hand tightly and spoke with concern in her voice.
“I got off just a hair ahead of the Count and Miss Janis. They should be on their way here by now. You should get out of the way quickly, Miss.”
“… … Mandy, is that what you came to tell me now?”
“Yes. I hope that the young lady will not return to the countship and will continue to do well in the capital.”
“you…….”
My heart fluttered at the words that were filled with pure sincerity.
Since she left the count’s residence without permission, there was a good chance that Mandy would be fired.
But this kind maid took on all those disadvantages and took care of me from beginning to end.
“Is it okay if I come here and tell you? If your mother finds out, she will never leave you alone.”
“Don’t worry about me. If the Count kicks you out, I can find another job. But first, the young lady… … .”
The moment Mandy changed the subject, trying to smile as if she was okay.
dripping.
Paul knocked and spoke from outside the door.
“Miss Shailene, we have another guest.”
At this, Mandy’s face turned pale. I confirmed it calmly.
“Are you by any chance my mother and sister?”
“… … Yes, that’s right. You came without even calling. What should I do?”
Mandy grabbed my sleeve as I hesitated for a moment and whispered.
“Don’t ever meet her, my lady. You never know what the Count and Lady Janis might do.”
The familiar fear and helplessness reflected in her eyes.
Shailene had the same thing before I became a psychic.
“That won’t happen anymore, Mandy.”
“yes……?”
I smiled as I held her hand tightly.
“I’m not the same as I used to be.”
It didn’t seem like a bad idea to take this opportunity to clearly show that Shailene wasn’t the type to just get fooled around like an idiot.
He raised his voice towards the outside.
“Bring those two to me.”
“All right.”
After sending Mandy away, who was fidgeting, I sat on the sofa and waited for the countess and her daughter.

During Shailene’s escape.
As soon as she received the maid’s report that the room was empty, Gwen Charophé immediately sent out men to look for her stepdaughter.
But Shailene’s whereabouts were unknown.
She also called in her maid, Mandy, who was usually close to her, and questioned her, but found out nothing.
“We must! We must find Shailene! Ronan Viscount has agreed to pay off all his debts in exchange for marrying her!”
It didn’t matter that this man, Viscount Ronan, was almost like a grandfather to Shaylen.
Gwen was in a situation where she had to shoulder the full cost of living in luxury with her husband while he was still alive.
He pretended to feel resentful when his plan to sell his stepdaughter to make ends meet was in danger of being ruined.
‘Even when my father died, I didn’t chase him away, I fed him and gave him a place to sleep, and now he doesn’t know the gratitude and runs away?!’
If I catch you, I’ll tie you up tight and send you to Ronan’s house.
But Shailene was nowhere to be found.
Ronan Viscount made all sorts of excuses to postpone the wedding.

I think I spent a month feeling anxious every single day.
News of Shailene’s appearance at the capital’s famous party was printed in daily newspapers distributed throughout the Empire.
I couldn’t believe it at first.
Shailene was an abandoned child by her maternal family, who hated her so much that they turned their backs on her.
But how come you are staying at the Diat Duke’s residence?
But I had no choice but to believe it because other newspapers also published articles saying that the granddaughter of Duke Diat had appeared.
“You rascal! How on earth did you trick the Duke and his family into crawling into that house?”
Gwen muttered disapprovingly in the carriage on the way to catch Shailene.
Janice, who couldn’t take her eyes off the splendid scenery of the capital city that was getting closer, asked with an anxious face.
“Mom, what if he doesn’t come with us? He said Shailene had to marry Viscount Ronan to get us money.”
“Don’t worry, Janice. She’s stupid and weak-willed. She’ll flinch at the slightest provocation.”
Of course, I’m a little concerned about what he did to Janice before running away.
It will only be a momentary affair.
Because I was a child who often rebelled in small ways like that and then gave up.
“What if the Duke of Diat doesn’t give me Shailene?”
“That wouldn’t happen unless the entire family went crazy.”
Gwen snickered.
I still vividly remember my husband complaining about his eldest daughter being completely ignored by the Duke of Diat.
He grumbled that he didn’t like her at all even though she had his ex-wife’s blood in her.
‘You don’t know how much it hurt. What unlucky thing is to take after your mother… . . . ‘
After remarrying, Gwen erased all traces of her connection to the former Countess.
But just one.
Only living humans could not be eliminated.
Every time Shailene looked at her, the dead countess came to mind, and she felt uncomfortable, as if she had taken someone else’s place.
That’s why I hated Shailene.
Because I am the absolute being that proves that I am the second.
‘She’s not a little girl, and I can’t afford to take care of my grown granddaughter now.’
Perhaps, with only her body to rely on, Shailene might be suffering the same persecution at the Duke’s house.
The count and his daughter arrived at the ducal residence in grand style and went to see Shailene.
After passing through the hallways of a mansion that was incomparably luxurious compared to the Countess of Charophet’s residence, I arrived in front of an old-fashioned door.
“Miss Shailene, I have brought Count Charophet and Miss Janis.”
“Tell them to come in.”
Paul opened the door and stepped aside.
The two entered, imagining Shailene looking very intimidated and discouraged by the Duke’s family.
but…….
‘What, what!’
Their eyes widened.
Shailene sat upright on the red velvet sofa, drinking tea, her complexion brightening even more.
The dress she was wearing was more luxurious than ever, and her shiny skin showed the signs of having eaten well and lived well.
Actually, compared to when I was at the party, I’m not even close to being dressed up now.
For those who only remember the shabby times in the county, Shailene’s current appearance was a great shock.
Doesn’t she look just like the princess of a duchess?
“I was surprised to hear that Mom and Janis had arrived without any notice.”
Shailene opened her mouth calmly.
The blue eyes that stared at them without wavering shone intelligently.
“I’m sure you know it’s rude, and I guess you have some very urgent business to attend to.”
“… … !”
Gwen’s cheeks flushed brightly.
I felt angry and ashamed when someone I always ignored pointed it out to me.
She gritted her teeth and sat down across from Shailene with her daughter.
“We came to get you, Shailene. Don’t bother Duke Diat anymore and let’s go back. It’s time to wake up from this sweet dream.”
Gwen naturally defined Shailene’s presence as a nuisance to the dukedom.
Without even knowing it well.
Shailene said with a hearty laugh.
“It’s not me who has to wake up from the dream, it’s my mother.”
“what?”
I’ve already been through enough.
She was resolute, not wanting to be dragged around like an idiot any longer.
“You need to get rid of the illusion that you are not loved by anyone and can be manipulated by your mother as you wish.”
