Chapter Index

    Just now.

    “Wow, matriarch!”

    ‘Go, the head of the house is in the lady’s room!’

    Black hair, tall height. A man wearing a stiff uniform, walking down the hallway. The employees who saw him bowed politely and retreated.

    Whenever Emilia got the chance, she barged into the office and made sarcastic remarks.

    So I came…

    Aden hesitated for a moment, holding the tightly closed door handle.

    Still, it seems that someone couldn’t wait even a moment.

    “What are you doing? Not going in?”

    “Emilia…”

    “Wow… I’m really sick of it. Didn’t Laria ask for the kids? Given Laria’s personality, she would have never done it?”

    Laria’s last words…

    ‘Arden… I’m sorry for leaving first… But… Maria and Marian are by Arden’s side… Ah… Please say thank you to Emilia too…’

    I didn’t ask for it, but… the children Laria left behind…

    Maybe you won’t remember your father’s face after a long time… They say children forget things quickly.

    Emilia made a fuss about being a genius…

    Squeak, the door opened.

    Come to think of it… When Maria first saw my face, she burst into tears.

    Pow!

    “Ugh?!”

    What broke his thoughts was a sudden rattle.

    “……?”

    With his excellent reflexes, he snatched the object that hit him in the face.

    Jingling jingling.

    ‘her…’

    There is a newborn baby in the room.

    He threw it at himself?

    When I looked at it in bewilderment, I saw that he had thrown it away and his eyes were wide open as if he was surprised… It was the same as when Laria was surprised.

    Our eyes met. Silver hair mixed with red like his wife, pink eyes that were lighter than his own and resembled his wife’s.

    The way he rolled his eyes as if he was sorry reminded me of my wife… I realized what I had done by neglecting him until now.

    ‘As expected… were you scared?’

    Eyes looking at you clearly. I felt like they were reprimanding me, as if asking me why I had come to visit now.

    ‘Marian…Marian Arjane.’

    ‘Laria and her daughter… my daughter…’

    It’s been over 1 hour…

    Aden slowly turned around.

    ‘Maria… should see it too.’

    The door was closed quietly so as not to startle the child.

    “Gasp…! The head of the family… there’s a lump on your forehead…?!”

    “Phew… Phew… Crouch…”

    The butler looking at you with concern, the head maid laughing without even trying to hide it…

    “…Emilia.”

    “Why?”

    “You can only take care of a child like that?”

    “…????”

    “You’re too skinny.”

    “You still eat 8 meals a day?”

    “……Increase to 10 times.”

    * * *

    “Mite…”

    I’m in serious trouble right now.

    Our cute Maria came and went just now…

    Doesn’t that sound a little strange?

    In the description of the dark side in the novel… when my younger brother was young… he reminded me of my mother and treated me awkwardly, but only before she died, my relationship became good… There was a description like that… so it was saddened by a feeling of regret. It was… that kind of description…

    A little while ago, my sister…

    ‘lol. Baby. ‘Do you like this?’

    ‘Kyaaa!’

    Jingling jingling.

    He even shook the rattle and played with me.

    With a smile like a sunflower that can’t even be seen in awkwardness…

    Of course I like it. It’s good… but it’s confusing because it’s different from the original…

    I guess I haven’t changed anything…?

    ‘hmm. I don’t know. ‘Good is good, right?’

    Anyway, Maria…

    Why does this person keep coming?

    “Jana…?”

    Then will the sleeping person answer?

    It must have been quite shocking when he hit me the first time, but after that he didn’t even show up when I saw him…

    I haven’t even seen my nose removed…

    ‘joy.’

    Don’t be fooled.

    I pretended to sleep soundly.

    I have knowledge of the original work.

    If you think about it, the duke’s daughter could be poisoned so easily. My father neglected me. If you think about it, there is a possibility.

    It’s a miracle that my sister doesn’t hate me.

    There’s no way my father would do that.

    Well… at least… judging from the fact that you don’t mind spending money on me, isn’t it the opening ceremony…?

    A baby’s life is monotonous. Eat, sleep, eat, sleep.

    That’s really the end.

    If you eat well and sleep well, you will grow up quickly. So, regardless of whether my father came to see me or not, I ate and slept faithfully to my daily routine in order to survive. The soft beds and blankets were always soft and the maids’ scents were fragrant.

    Is it because you are distraught? I couldn’t sleep well today, but my eyes quickly closed as Emilia hugged me and patted my back.

    “Now, take a nap.”

    Even though it is an elf, it is so pretty that it will make your eyes light up when you look at it.

    It’s so pretty I don’t think I can sleep…

    “Can’t sleep? Shall I sing you a lullaby?”

    “Aww!”

    ‘great!’

    I blink and nod my head. That was all, but Emilia smiled prettily and opened her mouth, wondering what was so good about it.

    “Sleep well, my baby. Birds and sheep in the front yard and back garden.”

    It’s like jade beads rolling around on a tray…? If Emilia had been born in modern times, she would have ranked first on the K-pop charts with just her voice.

    Before I know it, my eyes slowly close.

    I have a lot of thoughts. The only thing I’m good at is sleeping.

    ‘I hope you sleep well.’

    ‘Shh. Then wake up.’

    ‘Chii… Always Emilia…’

    “Ah. Miss, you were too noisy, right? Are you awake?”

    Emilia smiles as she looks at me muttering with my eyes wide open.

    As soon as I open my eyes, my dazzlingly pretty sister… ‘Seup.’ I’m drooling.

    “But… I think you’re really cute.”

    The maid who woke me up by being noisy earlier was Elaine. She had round and cute puppy-like eyes and wanted to hug me, but was stopped by Emilia.

    Well, it’s okay to just hug her as she’s a pretty girl!

    To be honest, it wasn’t that loud.

    What can I say? My senses are quite sensitive. Is it because it’s a baby? Listen to even small sounds and it may not be a bad thing.

    Elaine poked my cheek.

    It’s okay to hug, but this feels strangely bad?!

    “Awww!!”

    “You said you were not a toy!”

    As I frowned, Emilia slapped Elaine’s hand away. Elaine was depressed as she rubbed the back of her hand.

    “Ah, lady…”

    joy. Even if you look at me like a puppy in the rain, I will live a strong life from now on!

    I don’t like what I don’t like! I will become a person who can speak!

    “Miss… are you angry?”

    “Dau!”

    That’s because you stabbed the cheek! I understand that it’s a prick that wants to be stabbed, but from the point of view of being stabbed, I don’t like that!

    I wanted to speak fluently, but I could only mumble and could not speak. When on earth are you going to grow up…! Even if it were me, I would eat meat and talk a little.

    “How.”

    “Wow… The girl just sighed… So cute…”

    He is such a bright kid that he looked downcast until just now. Did you say 17 years old?

    He’s still a kid.

    “Hehe. Still, you look so pretty even when you’re angry…”

    Since I couldn’t speak, I just puffed out my cheeks, but was she pretty?

    The corners of my mouth are about to soften at the compliment, but I am a lady!

    I put strength on my face.

    You have to have a dangerous appearance!

    “Haum!”

    Especially a maid who is as playful as Elaine will give you another ball-cock if you let her go.

    “Well… because she looks like Laria.”

    “I see… You both have pink eyes, but you look like your wife, right? Silver hair is really rare and so pretty.”

    Hmm. Honestly, I like the hair color too. It’s still a bit like cotton, but it’s like a mix of silver and pink cotton candy. It’s not that I disliked the jet black hair of my previous life, but it really feels like I’ve been reborn.

    “It’s so cute just to look at.”

    “But if you stab her again, I will never let you see her again.”

    “Huh… yes…”

    what. They say it’s because they’re cute, but I have a big heart so I should understand.

    “Hehe. Miss, you still have to sleep now.”

    Emilia’s hands are magical hands. It’s so pretty and white, and the hand that touches my forehead is warm. I smiled brightly again and closed my eyes.

    I slept soundly.

    Still, I feel sleepy and sleepy. Maybe it’s because he’s a baby, but he sleeps and wakes up often.

    It tickles. Feeling something tickling my palm, I giggled without realizing it and then opened my eyes.

    Dark room, blurry vision. At that moment, my eyes met with pink, almost red eyes looking down at me.

    “……!?”

    ‘It’s a surprise!! This person is here again!?’

    I can clearly see my chest rising and falling roughly.

    I don’t know what time it is, but it’s dark.

    You’re going to go to sleep at night, but you’re acting like a ghost again?

    After the snowball fight, surprisingly, my biological father came to visit me quickly.

    You don’t want to come and do anything in particular, but just spend about an hour with me. You just do nothing and have snowball fights… Are you really into snowball fights?

    Someone would say this.

    ‘Is there a reason why the father comes to see his daughter?’

    I snort.

    Because we’re family?

    no.

    Family affection is an illusion. It is something that only appears in novels, or at least does not exist to oneself.

    But a miracle happened. my sister

    One miracle is enough, right? Two? No way. I also have knowledge of the original work.

    ‘ah!’

    Yes, my sister is the heir.

    But I don’t have that kind of value. second. I will make money.

    If you sell yourself, if you get married. okay. That’s it…

    Mom was like that too. 5 billion his own ransom.

    Looking at myself now, I may not be as good as Emilia, but I am Maria’s younger sister to begin with, so if I survive, I will become a truly beautiful woman, right?

    The duchy’s princess, that alone would be valuable.

    I don’t think I’m short on money…

    ‘Well, you’ll get sick of it soon…’
