His Breeding Obsession - Chapter 59
When Mirania quickly raised her hand, the woman clutching the air licked her lips again.
“Don’t get me wrong. I’m Lady Cosa, the owner of Laricosa Firm. I run the Laricosa Lounge.”
The woman, who confidently introduced herself, smiled and slapped her forehead as Mirania put on a look of ‘What do you want from me?’.
“Oh, look at me. If you’re a foreigner, you might not know. Of course, my lounge is famous in foreign countries!”
“…”
“Anyway, I fell in love with the lady’s beauty, which I could clearly see even from a distance!”
“…”
“You don’t seem to be an ordinary person, where are you from? What is your title? Wait No way!”
Mirania’s eyes were wary.
“You’re not some kind of Queen, are you? I heard that the far north country is ruled by a beautiful silver-haired Queen.”
‘What is this?’
Mirania, who was trying to get rid of the annoying woman, was belatedly distracted by the words that came out of her mouth.
“Did you just say lounge?”
“Yes, you’ve heard of it, haven’t you? There are many good salons in the capital, but I can confidently introduce my own lounge among them. Even if you are a foreigner, it is a place favored by nobles who have heard of it at least once. His Highness the Crown Prince, his precious person, the Foreign Minister’s son, and…”
“Wait a minute.”
Interrupting her words to continue, Mirania paid attention to ‘His Highness the Crown Prince and his precious person’.
The familiar said, ‘Alice was found at the noble’s lounge.’
“Then do you know about Alice?”
“What?”
The woman’s eyes widened as she covered her mouth.
“How? You don’t know me, but you know Alice?”
I thought it’d take a long time to get a clue.
Mirania blinked, bewildered at the unexpected response.
“Oh, what a disgrace. Alice is from a foreign commoner family, so only people who know her knew it. It’s embarrassing that a foreigner like Lady knows about it, so I stop without realizing it.”
Lady Cosa, who tilted his head, stared at Mirania.
“Are you acquainted with Alice?” asked Lady Cosa.
Her eyes, full of curiosity, twinkled uncomfortably.
‘If this woman confidently owns such a noble’s lounge, I don’t think anyone can enter it easily. So, does Alice now have ties to nobility?’
Mirania wondered if Cosa knew about Alice’s relationship with the Crown Prince.
Considering what the Prime Minister said, it seems that the relationship between the Crown Prince and Ally doesn’t seem to be widely known to the public, but to the point of being said to be a precious person, doubts remain.
“A distant relative.”
“Oh, I heard that Alice is an orphan, but are you related? Oh my, if this is known, it’s a totally hot issue…! Oh, I’m sorry.”
“You know quite a bit about Alice.”
“Haha, because she is quite a beautiful woman. Did you know that Baron Everizen took her in as her foster daughter? She is now the Lady of Baron Everizen.”
‘She doesn’t have ties to aristocrats, but she was adopted into an aristocratic family?’
Embracing her confusion, as Mirania fully entered the bath with her legs half-draped, Cosa quickly followed and sat down next to Mirania, pushing her butt.
‘She’s like a baby dog.’
Without knowing what Mirania was thinking, Cosa spoke boldly.
“I was able to grow my firm into one of the top ten in the empire because of the lounge, honestly. There are a lot of people who say that socializing and parties are my skills rather than business skills, haha.”
Cosa, who was bragging about her lounge, smiled brightly when she noticed Mirania’s sour look because she was not interested.
“You wonder why I talk to you all of a sudden and pretend to be friendly.”
Earlier she was about to say a lot of useless things, but suddenly it was a full fastball.
However, Mirania, who has lived alone, was also straightforward.
“That’s true.”
“Do you know what is the most important thing in a lounge?”
“…”
“Sophisticated space, tasteful interior, delicious food, and high-quality alcohol. Everything is important. But most importantly.”
Cosa lifted one of her fingers.
“It’s about a person.”
Then she puts her hands together and points to Mirania.
Mirania glanced down at the Cosa’s plump fingers and stared at her face.
Cosa grinned and continued, “People who can attract people just by leaving a bottle of beer and cheap potato chips on the table.”
“…”
“People as beautiful as Lady.”
“Is it the same context that you are interested in Alice, who is from a foreign family?”
“That’s right. My lounge is for prestigious people, popular people, and high-ranking nobility.”
Cosa folded her fingers one by one, and grinned as she looked straight into Mirania’s eyes.
“Because I never miss a beautiful person.”
🧹
Alice in the Rumor.
No one but Malandor had praised her openly for her beauty in this way, so when Mirania gave her a quizzical look, Cosa waved her hand as if she wasn’t trying to burden her.
“It’s the same with Alice. I invited her to a salon because she was so beautiful. Although she couldn’t attend a few times. That’s enough. No matter how many times a beautiful woman appears, the degree of attention is different.”
Alice’s appearance in the lounge must have been because of this woman’s back-up, and what Cosa spilled stuck in Mirania’s ear when she grasped the situation.
“Thanks to that, His Highness, the Crown Prince, also took an interest in our lounge.”
“… Even the Crown Prince?”
Cosa, who nodded, looked closely at Mirania’s expression.
“In a way, you can say that our lounge helped them become closer!”
“…”
“Do you have any questions?”
I was curious about something. Are Alice and the Crown Prince really lovers?
‘Does those two really love each other?’
But I didn’t think Cosa could answer that, so I shook my thoughts.
With a proud face, Cosa puffed out her chest.
Her breasts, covered by her towel, swelled up.
“It’s just hard to believe. A precious person to His Highness the Crown Prince. He wasn’t interested in any lady enough to have no scandals, right? But really!”
Cosa, who stretched out her hands, scratched her nose excitedly.
“It means that even the Crown Prince doesn’t hate beautiful women! Lady Alice is a great beauty.”
Mirania frowned, listening attentively.
‘I don’t think I know much.’
It was only the Prime Minister’s claim that the Crown Prince and Alice are about to breed.
I couldn’t believe it until I see it with my own two eyes.
Especially if it comes from the mouth of the prime minister, who has already deceived me once.
‘Should I meet Alice in person?’
I stared at Cosa, who enthusiastically explained how she ran her business and how popular the lounge was.
Mirania was thinking about how to bring her words out so that she could meet Alice.
“So, would you like to visit my lounge?”
“… What?”
Cosa came a little closer. The wind struck her shoulder slightly, and Mirania involuntarily pulled herself back.
Cosa swept Mirania’s shoulder with admiring eyes.
A round face and a cute appearance, but what’s wrong with the eyes of an eagle that doesn’t miss its prey, overlapping with those eyes?
“Lady, you are really beautiful. If you choose my lounge, I’ll let you know its beauty.”
“…”
“You came all the way here from a foreign country, wouldn’t it be a pity to just go back? You have to make a name for yourself in the empire. I will make good memories for you.”
Cosa was like a merchant who worked hard selling drugs. Not interested in such a thing at all, Mirania nodded, unmotivated.
“Oh, how about this one? If you go to the lounge, you will be able to meet Alice. Originally, Alice only stayed at her residence, so it’s hard to meet her anywhere else! But of course I, it’s Cosa’s lounge.”
“Can I meet Alice there?”
“Sure. She has already come several times. Alice really likes our shop’s cherry juice. She will come for that.”
Like the Prime Minister’s words, I have a feeling that these words are also unbelievable.
It’s obvious that she’s using exaggeration to entice me.
But—
‘If there is even the slightest possibility of meeting Alice, then I should go.’
“There are so many wonderful gentlemen, too.”
Cosa held both hands and gave a subtle look.
“You won’t be bored while you’re in the Empire.”
‘What does it have to do with having a lot of men and not being bored? It’s a small, thick thing that’s been peeled off.’
The luxurious lounge of the rich. Behind it was a promiscuous social scene.
Mirania, who did not know that there was another reason for the popularity of the lounge, looked at Cosa’s glistening eyes while speaking sternly, and clicked her tongue like an old man.
