Ch5

Three days have passed since my father wrote to His Highness Alfredo with a positive reply to his proposal.

It would take a few days to come to this country from that country, no matter how hard you tried.

Therefore, I was able to prepare to leave my house with plenty of time to spare.

You may not want to bring too many clothes.

The clothing designs in Albinia and Ezerta are quite different, so it would be better to buy something new and wear it there.

“Oh, by the way, Charlotte-onesama. Why have you been packing? Are you going on a trip somewhere? By the way, Sophie also went on a heartbreak trip after her marriage proposal was rejected.”

I had started making preparations three days ago, but Miri, who was crazy about Leanhardt-sama, finally noticed that I was getting ready to leave.

She told me that Sophie, a friend of Miri’s, had recently lost a marriage proposal that was going well.

According to Miri, Sophie asked what went wrong, and she replied, “Your face.”

At that time, Sophie was crying, and Mirim was angry that she didn’t get the joke.

I told Miri not to say anything rude, but she said, “I was just messing with her.”

She refused to listen to me with a sulky look on her face.

She didn’t seem to understand how much her comments were frowned upon.



“Oh, can we tell Mirim now?”

“I guess so. He’ll be coming for Charlotte soon anyway. Let’s tell her first.”

My parents decided to tell Miri that His Royal Highness Alfred, the Crown Prince of a neighboring country, would be coming to pick me up.

I didn’t think it was too much to ask, but Miri often just replies blankly and doesn’t listen to what people say, so they might have been waiting for her to show interest.

“Father~, Mother~, it’s not nice to talk in secret. Please tell me too.”

Miri was in a good mood, probably because things were going well with Leanhardt-sama.

She looked at our parents with sparkling eyes, full of hope, as if the whole world revolved around her.

Miri’s eyes were like rubies, the kind of sparkle that any man would love to see. Miri herself seemed to know it well.

“A marriage proposal has come to Charlotte. His Highness Alfred, the Crown Prince of the Kingdom of Albinia, will be coming to pick her up soon…”

“…A-al? C-Crown Prince?!”

“You may be sad because you loved Charlotte too, but you need to say goodbye properly.”

“…?”

Miri could not understand what her parents were saying, and after a word or two, she froze with her mouth wide open.

It is true that the story is so farfetched that it may take some time to understand.

If you think about it, it would be absurd and unbelievable for a woman who had just broken off her engagement to leave her country after being proposed to by the prince of a neighboring country.

“F-Father, it sounds like Onesama is marrying the crown prince of a neighboring country. Please explain it in more detail. Milim doesn’t understand what Father is saying. “

“No, I think you understand. That’s exactly what I said.”

“…”

When my father nodded that Milim understood what he said, she stopped smiling and froze.

My sister, who doesn’t move a muscle, looks like a doll…

“— Haaaaaaah?!”

And then, after a few seconds, she screams, her face contorted in a way I’ve never seen before.

I knew she would be surprised, but I didn’t expect her to be so surprised…

“This isn’t fair! Charlotte-onesama!”

I don’t understand why she thinks I’m the bad guy and glares at me with a look of displeasure on her face.

I don’t understand what’s not fair about it.
