Tensei Saki ga Shoujo Manga no Shiro Buta Reijou datta Chapter 156

A few days later, we returned safe and sound from Viscount Dane's territory.

However, the atmosphere in our residence seemed not good.

Generally speaking, our grandfather would warmly welcome us back when we arrived by carriage.

(But, even the maids and servants don't appear to greet us, let alone our grandfather.)

Well, I had never expected that I would get a cool reception one day, so I got out of the carriage quickly. Due to the competition between Ryuze and Ricardo, the return journey also made me completely exhausted.

(It was Ryuze who played tricks on Ricardo as usual. There are more and more people who could treat each other honestly. It is a really good thing.)

In order to prevent it from a fight between the mother and daughter-in-law, I looked at the situation with some uneasiness.

After we got off the carriage and walked into the house, we could obviously feel a strange atmosphere. It seemed that Ryuze had also noticed this difference, so he turned to the deep corner of the corridor.

“What happened?”

Ricardo put his hand on my back and tried to soothe me.

When we walked through the corridor, attendant Leon and maid Maria appeared.

As soon as they saw us, they strode towards us.

“Lord Ryuze, what a calamity! That, that…”

Leon spoke to my cousin with an expression of distress.

“The former Earl, ummm, Lady Britney's father came back with his lover who eloped with him.”

“…”

Ryuze and I looked at each other.

Over the past years, we hadn't heard from my father who had abandoned me when I was at a young age and evaporated.

No matter how lonely I was or how much debt Earl Hakusu's family was in, he hadn't shown up once.

Up to now, what on earth did he want to do?

Leon and Maria led us to the study room where my father stayed.

Maybe it was my psychology intuition. I felt Ryuze's countenance was stiff.

(Of course, it's a complicated feeling, but it would be alright only if he doesn't wear a fiendish smile.)

So did I. A delicate feeling was in my mind.

(Why would he come back together with his mistress? Hasn't he considered his daughter's feelings?)

After reincarnated, I was at the same age as my previous life, so to some extent, I was magnanimous in their relationship.

However, if Britney didn't have the memory of the previous life, it was hard to imagine how she would deal with this matter. It was out of the question that she would overeat and gain weight.

In the manga, Ryuzawa had passed away long ago.

Obviously, it was my grandfather who managed Earl Hakusu's territory. As for Britney, she stayed beside Angela in the capital city, so at that time, she was also not at home.

It was quite possible that my father and his lover who had returned and rested in our residence.

(Is his return related to Britney's execution?)

Actually, I had doubted that at an early age.

No matter how stupid and gluttonous Britney was, to eat King's dishes was over the line.

Even if she managed to slip into the kitchen of that castle, in common sense, she wouldn't have the dishes before poisoning them.

If she did so, there was a risk to show her hoof. It was an obvious matter that everyone could understand.

Even though I had been living as Briney, at first, I denied her.

However, after I accepted my identity, I could get close to her ideas. And the answer I got was…

(Perhaps, at that time, she has been driven into a situation where she couldn't figure out things consciously?)

That was what happened.

In any case, I had to confirm the current situation. If I didn't see him, I could do nothing but wait patiently.

However, this time, my father Earl Hakusu, who had decided to abandon the family, came back on purpose. Maybe they are involved in more complicated cases.

I had a feeling that the return of my father would bring our family a more violent storm than that our unsolicited uncle.
