“It’s been a while, Christina Noir . I see you still look displeasing and impudent as ever . ”
“……Viscount Igusa?”
“Hey, don’t ignore me . ”
I ignore the idiot even further, and beg an explanation from Viscount Igusa with a stiff smile .
“Viscount Igusa, my apologies for being unable to grasp the situation . Please kindly explain it to me……”
“H-hey, Christina Noir . I’m talking to you here . ”
Shut up . I didn’t come to greet an idiot . The one I’m expecting to see is Charles . It’s only normal to want an explanation when an idiot has come in place of my fiancé . I have no intention of talking to Endo until I’m satisfied .
“His Highness Charles has been feeling unwell . The doctors said that it’s just a slight cold and that his fever will most likely dissipate by tomorrow . Even then, His Highness insisted on seeing you, Lady Christina . And somehow His Highness took on the role of representing him……”
Why the hell?
An idiot isn’t fit to be a replacement for Charles .
“Hey, stop ignoring me…… the least you could do is look at me, you little…!
Still ignoring Endo, I stare at Viscount Igusa to convey my dissatisfaction . He averts my gaze, perhaps because he is unable to bear it .
“Well…… my apologies . I could not have brought Charles here if it meant affecting his health . There was also the possibility of you getting infected, Lady Christina…… That was when His Highness Endo offered to come in his stead, since his schedule was open . ”
“That’s how it was . Now that it’s settled, look at me already . Or are you too much of a filthy coward to face me?”
I want to grab the collar of the arrogant idiot who looks like he’s begging for an apology and throw him out with my own hands .
But as long as Viscount Igusa is present, I have to resist the urge and continue the role of a perfect Lady Christina . I have to keep in mind that it’s not a daily occurrence for the crown prince to visit so unexpectedly, no matter how much I may dislike it, and no matter how disagreeable we are with each other .
“I see……”
I’m about to sigh, but hold it in and turn it into a smile instead .
“It was certainly an unexpected turn of events…… but I suppose it cannot be helped . Very well, I understand . ”
It could have been helped, but I don’t have the right to tell him .
Viscount Igusa sighs in relief to my assent . I can also tell he’s a little exhausted .
The maid looks at me as if she’s seen a rare beast as I’ve been flaunting my image as a proper lady . I ignore her for now and entice Viscount Igusa with a wide smile .
“Well then, you are going to greet my father now, are you not? I shall have the maid escort you to him . As for His Highness Endo…… Yes, I shall entertain him . Is that alright with you?”
“Well then, you are going to greet my father now, are you not? I shall have the maid escort you to him . As for His Highness Endo…… Yes, I shall entertain him . Is that alright with you?”
“Yes, please . Thank you very much . I shall take my leave from you . ”
Following my suggestion, the maid guides Viscount Igusa into the house .
Now it’s just me and Endo . I survey my surroundings once more to make sure no one is watching, then sharply turn my face toward him .
“Hey, idiot . What are you doing here?”
“Hey, idiot . You’re finally looking at me . I’ll make sure to teach you some respect and manners . ”
We exchange words with our brightest smiles .
Of course, it’s not from friendship or love . It’s pure enmity . We’re merely expressing it through our words, or in his case, grating voices .
“Hahaha . Respect, huh . Yeah…… my performance as a lady might have been too dazzling for a prince who cannot even speak politely . Hehehe . ”
“Shut up, you’re creeping me out . ”
“Huh?”
Is he trying to dig his own grave in this courtyard? Even his displeased face is getting on my nerves .
I send him flying for insulting my second form .
“Seriously, why are you here? Hmm? Did you come to win an argument? I can win easily with money from the family, you know?”
“You’re short-tempered as always . It’s as Igusa said . I’m here representing Charles . ”
“Seriously, why are you here? Hmm? Did you come to win an argument? I can win easily with money from the family, you know?”
“You’re short-tempered as always . It’s as Igusa said . I’m here representing Charles . ”
“So why does it have to be you?”
I frown at him because I can’t accept him of all people .
“Charles insisted on coming along even when we left him alone, and he only calmed down when we told him we would represent him . He’s stubborn that way . ”
That was unexpected .
He’s really doing it on behalf of Charles .
“It took a lot of convincing, you know? He’s persistent for a guy who seems flexible . ”
“……I know . ”
I nod while pouting in response to his accurate judgment of Charles .
It seems that he and Charles have gotten along much better than before . Before, it was His Highness Endo who disliked Charles . I wonder if his hatred has disappeared .
If that’s the case, then I’ll stop being aggressive towards him .
“Oh well . I’ll show you to my room, but you should go home right after that . ……Oh, yeah . I’ll write a get well soon letter to Charles . Once I’m done with it, you can take it and go . ”
“That’s fine with me . I don’t plan on staying too long anyway . ”
Now that we’re finally on the same page, I guide him to my room while thinking this task is beneath me . The maid escorted Viscount Igusa earlier . I don’t think it’s a good idea to let Father and Endo meet, since he’s already seen the way Endo and I interact . He might throw a fit if he saw us, so I plan to make Endo leave as soon as possible .

“In any case, what made Charles ill all of a sudden?”
“No idea . It’s just a fever anyway, and it’s so slight that he should be fine by tomorrow . He probably snuck out of his room at night and caught a small cold, anyhow . ”
“Hmm . ”
It’s possible .
But I’m disappointed by the bad timing . Charles was still healthy last time . He was fighting with Michelie as usual, so I interfered and held his face with the gloves Michelie gave me . He was energetic enough to break free . I wonder what happened .
“I’m on enemy territory myself . Maybe I’ll go home after exploiting one of your weaknesses . ”
“Huh? I don’t have any weaknesses to exploit . ”
He says that while we’re walking in the hallways, as if he’s trying to do reconnaissance . I don’t think of asking him directly . First of all, I’m a flawless genius, so there’s no way I have any weaknesses .
I snort at his foolish words .
“As always, you’re an idiot . A genius such as I-”
“Big sister?”
I freeze as Michelie suddenly shows her face from the corner of the hallway .
