How to Avoid Becoming a Vicious Step Mother Chapter 24

The third method. Making my side. (4)

Charles put down the block where he had finished probing, and picked up a new one. Carl, who looked at the block I held and put his hands together and said, 'Give it to me', was so lovely that I wanted to bite him. Margaret's face melted down when she saw the cute Carl. Children were creatures that couldn't be hated even if they made trouble sometimes.

I gave the block to Carl and he began to probe the block with his mouth again. Small like a child's rose petal, and red lips were wet with saliva biting the block. I should wipe his lips later.

“Margaret is amazing. You take care of your children and at the same time manage your territory.”

Viscount Desmond was also on the battlefield with the Duke, so the Viscountess was the acting lord. Although she is a permanent representative, she also stayed in the Duke's castle as Carl's nanny, setting up her agent and carefully managing the estates from far away.

“I'm flattered. I was lucky to have a trusted agent.”

“I don't think it's just luck that you have someone you can trust around you.”

Margaret and I looked at each other with a smile. She listened to me and without changing her expression or asking me directly what I meant. Margaret said with a gentle face.

“It's possible if you have multiple eyes. I learned it from my mother-in-law.”

She didn't have to spill any more information, Margaret knew right away what I wanted. Her words reminded me of someone I had inadvertently forgotten. Yes, I have a mother-in-law, too!

“Margaret's mother-in-law….”

“She is the late Viscountess Desmond. I hope she rests in peace.”

“I hope she rests in peace.”

As we talked about the deceased, Margaretta and I recited a prayer for the deceased, as is customary. Laying her eyes down slightly, she continued.

“My mother-in-law taught me a lot. From close relatives to family events to how things are organized and handled, how my people make the job… Thanks to my mother-in-law who taught me well, I am still running the estate and family well. I'm grateful.”

“That's right. If she looks at the current Margaret, she'll be proud of you.”

“I hope so.”

Carlos, who completed probing the block, came to me. I hugged Carl, and Margaret went toward her children.

Unlike Margaret, my mother-in-law was alive. As an 'Duchess Dowager' in her DeMancier, in the northern part, without any explanation, just saying her 'Duchess Dowager' meant her. After the Duke of King Sun Dae-si, suddenly became a machine in the war, but he was used to being a master of the war, but he was used to being a master.

After the sudden death of previous Duke of DeMancier on the battlefield, my husband, Gellerhad, became Duke of DeMancier, but he was unmarried at the time, so I was told that the Duchess Dowager stayed and did the Duchess's affairs on behalf of Merilyn until she entered the house and became familiar with the Duchess's affairs.

However, the Duchess Dowager had already left the Duchy before her grandson Carlos was born. I didn't see her when Carlos was born and even when Merilyn died, she only sent a letter of concern, and didn't come to the funeral. Teaching Merilyn all the things the Duchess should do and calling the Duchess Dowager back was like calling a retired person to take over again after completing all the work from a modern point of view, so I felt repulsed.  Besides, I had no intention of doing the Duchess's work on my own, so I didn't contact her otherwise.

As I wiped the salivdrenched lips of Carl, he murmured. He looked tired from playing with blocks, and looked sleepy. Carl's hand ran through my hair.

“Our Carl is sleepy, right? Yes, you need to sleep if you're sleepy. Right. You have to nap.”

“Koo”

“Okay, nap-”

I pat the baby on the back while holding Carl, who is now quite heavy, and letting Carl rest his face comfortably on my chest. Sitting in an armchair near the fireplace definitely made it much more comfortable to hold Carl. Patting the little sleepy child, I spoke lightly to Carl.

“My Karl, don't you want to see your grandmother?”

“Granma?”

“Yes, grandmother. Your grandmother will say that Carl is so cute.”

“Wow-”

Carl is a little asleep and put my hair in my ears and put my hair in my nose. LieV on the bed and I wrote a letter to the Duchess Dowager without delay. Anyway, it was a problem that I invited to cut her wife, but I didn't have to cut her hands right away, but even if you don't know what I don't know what I't know.However, it was not able to ask for help.Apart from I believe her, I can't afford to tell her everything, and save her life and the rest of the work of the work and the rest of the machine.

Carl, who was falling asleep, grabbed my hair, put it in his ear, and put it in his nose, then fell asleep in my arms. Putting Karl on the bed, I wrote a letter to my mother-in-law without any delay. After all, since she was someone I had invited, I had no justification to cut Lady Blone off with my own hands right away, and since I did not know how to govern the estates and take care of internal affairs, it would cause me a problem if I cut her off. Nor could I ask Margaret for help. Aside from my belief in her, she didn't have enough time to tell me about her work one by one, and the Viscounts household agents and that of a Duke's house were different in size and scale.

Since the Duchess's job was my job after all, there was only one person I could turn to and trust to teach.

The Duchess Dowager of DeMancier. Fortunately, she replied that she would visit the castle in response to my request to come see her cute grandson.
