Could it be that the actual owner of the academy happened to be out for a walk?

The young lady, Charlotte, was out for a walk in the flower garden, and around her, employees were seen greeting her.

Meanwhile, Charlotte, who happened to make eye contact with my nemesis, the manager, was pointing to my flowers and asking him a question.

“Barton, what is this flower?”

I think I heard a similar version of that story last time.

I already felt like I was getting goosebumps.

“Umm… I’m not sure… …

After listening to him here and there, I think he’s from Chaoxing.

However, I don’t think it will spoil the aesthetics, so I’m leaving it alone for now.

If it bothers you, I will clean it up… … ”

‘Why are you licking the plastering scissors with your tongue? !!’

The large flower was trembling without realizing it as the manager looked at the flower with a look in his eyes as if he was holding a sashimi knife and counting the number of drums that would go into the sea today.

iced coffee… There are probably about 40 drums.

That’s where I’m going… …

In fact, the shocking fact that I had been caught right away and was being decided on whether or not I would be selected was complicating my feelings.

How can you say such a cruel thing so lightly, saying that you will dispose of the flowers neatly?

‘Even man-eating plants have the right to live!!

Academy, wake up!!

Nature will reject you!!’

But should I say it was fortunate?

After hearing the manager’s words, Charlotte threw away her hand, saying it was enough.

Did it mean that she, too, liked my flowers?

“Because this is the flower bed that my father left behind…

Please take care of it so that it grows well.

While we’re talking about it, I’ll try to cut out some weeds.”

Watching the manager look embarrassed by one word from Charlotte, I felt like my stomach was loosening a knot, but there was something else more important than that.

“… Do you mean directly?

If you leave it to me, I’ll make sure you like it… ”

“It’s okay, just prepare some tools.”

‘Ugh… !! What kind of noble works in the fields? !!’

Charlotte said she would come forward and take a look at the flower bed.

But the owner of the academy wants to see it, so who in this academy will stop that?

The girl slowly rolled up her skirt and sleeves and jumped over the low fence of the flower bed, walking forward and looking around the inside of the flower bed.

And when he found something, he grabbed it tightly with the white gloved hand he had been wearing from the beginning and pulled it out.

“There are a lot of weeds…

It’s hard to see because it’s covered with flowers…

Still, you have to watch it often and choose it.”

For a moment, I felt cognitive dissonance at the sight of the girl making noises as if she were talking like a farmer.

“Miss… Here… … ”

“Thank you, Barton.”

Before she knew it, Charlotte had received it from the manager who politely handed her a hoe-like farming implement outside. She quietly accepted it and began to stir up the flower bed in earnest.

The only thing that was surprising was that it was able to accurately distinguish between flowers and weeds, and only pulled out the weeds like a ghost.

As Charlotte piled up the weeds she had pulled out in a corner of the flower bed like a bush, my feelings were filled with devastation, as if I were seeing a mountain of corpses of my colleagues who had been sacrificed by a large monster.

‘No… It’s true that you should enjoy pulling out weeds…

My values are becoming strange… … ‘

But at that very moment, a voice began to attract attention.

“Oh my, aren’t you Polignac’s lady?

I asked where you had been, and you were here?”

A woman dressed in clothes that looks like she has a lot of money.

What’s more serious than that is that, aside from the fact that money was used, it was shown to be a sensational salpa reminiscent of ‘Seonjeong’s Daughter’.

‘There’s nothing strange about my eyes… ?

If that’s the case, why are you wearing those clothes? … ?’

Is that what a high-end cheap car is like?

I don’t know much about luxury goods, but if Aurora or Ranie saw them, they would definitely make their mouths open, and these are luxury goods that many women would envy.

Even though she was wearing such expensive things all over her body, her clothes were grotesquely flashy, which further emphasized her sadness.

But still, looking at that body, it seemed like she had clearly refined her womanly weapons to the extent that it reminded me of Laura from before.

However, if Laura’s body was an innate form of beauty, what was different about this woman’s body was that it showed that she had made an acquired plan and worked hard to create it.

The first impression of the woman was so serious that it felt like the well-trained, smooth muscles and fresh flesh all over her body were rotting away due to the wrong clothes.

“What business do you have here, Lalatina?

I understand that your offer was rejected.”

“Rejection means rejection…

I think I told you this?

I think there was some misunderstanding… ”

Charlotte’s green eyes were turning dark as she glared coldly at the woman, raising her lower back from pulling out weeds.

“Our business isn’t going to end like this, right?

For our mutual bright future…

You need to approach it more carefully… ?”

The social world was as dark and deep on the inside as it was bright and joyous on the outside.

This was also the reason why many nobles raised their descendants as quickly as possible and postponed family events for them.

This is the same reason why people who have spent nearly 10 years in the social world are called monsters, and those who have spent more than 20 years are called old monsters.

It was not easy to survive in the social world to that extent, and even high-ranking families who started out with a large advantage in the social world due to their family’s position often became disillusioned with the power struggles there and ran away.

Charlotte’s ancestors were also people who fell into that category.

In a way, his influence in the social world became a lifeline that protected the Academy and freed it from conflicts with other nobles.

“You should be ashamed, Lalatina.

This place is a place for learning.

Your proposal is not only for the Academy… …

This is no different from telling Polignac to paint his face.

The Academy… Partnering with Changgwan…

I can never tolerate something like that… … !!”

Although it is an academy that receives support from the royal family, what was the reason why the academy was able to grow so much?

“I wonder whose head such a rotten idea came from?

or not… Does Polignac look funny because he’s using someone as his backer…? ?”

It was the generous efforts of the Marquis de Polignac from generation to generation and the support of graduates who recognized the efforts of the marquis of the time.

It was especially meaningful to maintain connections in the social world with nobles who were graduates.

If he found like-minded nobles, or nobles who would support him, he could use the accumulated influence to drive out those who were trying to have interests in the academy.

However, if you think about it, most of them were adults in the family, people who had officially inherited the position of head of the family, and knew how to set and act on the minimum code of conduct and principles.

It is safe to say that they at least had the ability to remain neutral without being swayed by the atmosphere or situation, even as they moved in and out of social circles.

Therefore, her grandfather’s superiors were at least visible in social circles, but the problem was her father, the former head of the family.

Since her father’s time, she was a mentally weak Polignac who had not even entered the social world.

In particular, as times gradually changed, graduates also began to place more emphasis on personal advancement rather than a sense of belonging or pride as academy graduates.

In any case, it meant that the various aristocratic personal connections that had been passed down to my grandfather’s generation were beginning to be cut off.

‘I did my best to construct the work building…

This year’s operating costs are dangerous… … ‘

Her father may not have had many connections right now, but Charlotte must have been devastated not to have been properly handed over as the head of the family by her father.

Becoming the head of a family meant becoming the adult of a family.

However, the only things I can rely on right now are a few deacons who were originally assisting me with my work.

His mother, who died giving birth to him, and his father, who suddenly passed away due to illness even though he was still young.

‘It’s a problem you created…’ …

What should I do in times like this? … ‘

For that reason, the only person left by Charlotte’s side was her grandmother, who seemed to have little time left to follow her grandfather.

My grandmother, who had trouble with daily life and even showed signs of dementia, was in a position where she couldn’t help at all with the family’s affairs.

In the end, all Charlotte could do was to run the academy as efficiently as possible using the remaining resources.

Charlotte was trying hard to suppress her habit of biting her lip and was glaring at Lalatina with narrowed eyes.
