The Duchess of the Attic - 92 62. Future

“So, how’s Erik doing?

“You’re getting a report, aren’t you?

“I want to hear it from you.”

“… Well, naturally, people seem to have changed. He seems to have been beaten even more, trying to prove the innocence of his father and brother somehow. I don’t know if I’m losing myself right now.”

“I guess so”

The more you try to clear up the innocent sins of Marquis Bapot and Tulli, the more your family will know how much you’ve been doing.

It seems that Tulli’s rebellion against Alessandro was caused not only by Claude being marquised, but also by the granting of the Duke of Botzelli.

Without even trying to understand what it meant to be entrusted with the Duke of Botzelli’s territory, the immaturity of Terri, who had been imprisoned by jealousy, was too costly.

But the question now is how Erik will grow from here.

It would be unfortunate if we were to hold grudges against the Kings and Claudes, but we would also have Erik wear some kind of sin.

It was also inevitable to eliminate the worries of the hindsight.

That is true not only of the Marquis Bapot family, but also of all the families of those involved in this conspiracy.

Everyone will remain under close surveillance.

After numerous investigations on the King’s part since then, it has been established that the judgment handed down will not be covered, and that the Marquis of Bapot will make amends with death for the great opposite: conspiracy.

It was also noted how it could be taken by the social community about that, but there does not seem to be any particular major confusion.

So Julian seems to have decided it’s time to leave the kingdom of Tysey.

“Are we going back to King’s Capital next season?

“No, I’m gonna take it easy here for a while.”

“That would all be a shame. I was desperate to get a little closer to the Dukes of Botzelli. You couldn’t help but be depressed with me.”

“You know, that usually just wanted to get close to you, right?

“Naturally, that goes without saying, doesn’t it?

“Be a little modest.”

Claude replied with a laugh to the childhood language.

At that time, we both press for silence when there are signs that someone has been visiting us.

If I clear my ears, I could hear the butler responding, and I found out that he had apparently received a letter.

Then Opal rushed into the room when he continued to talk to this, whether it was the two of us, and broke off the conversation that it was time to go out.

“Opal, take your time.”

“You’re as restless as ever.”

Shut up, Julian.

Claude stood up immediately and walked over to Opal to notice.

Opal sat on the couch with Claude’s hand as he said back to Julian.

“Claude, I just got a letter from the Duke of McCloud…”

“What’s going on?

“The Duke says he will return the title.”

“Extreme things again”

“Oh, come on, it’s you.”

Unlike Opal, who is puzzled by the content of the letter he just received, both Claude and Julian are cold.

Opal, realizing that he had omitted too much talk, explained once again the contents of the letter.

“It’s not exactly perfect right now. He just wrote that in his will. Ahead, I will never marry myself, so I have a successor problem. I can’t give up the position of responsible duke to a remote place I’m not familiar with, so I’m giving it back. But he’s going to give up some of his fortune to the other guy.”

“You’re just rejecting the proposal and abandoning yourself. You can leave me alone, Opal.”

“What? No way. Some kid turned down the Duke’s proposal?

“Already! Listen seriously, both of you. It’s a problem to return the title, but most importantly, you’re going to bequeath the territory to us!

Opal was annoyed by two people who still didn’t take it seriously.

Even though it’s important to return the Duke, he’s saying that somehow he’s giving up his territory to the Opals who are others.

But Claude just raised one eyebrow, and Julian laughed.

“You don’t have to be so sick, Opal. One of these days, you’re gonna get back from your broken heart and change your mind.”

“It sounds interesting to show your face to the social community when you get home. Claude, you’re going to Pasma, right? I’ll go with you. I’ll stay on the boat.”

“You’re not staying?

“You want me to stay?

“Nothing like that.”

Claude smiles again at Opal’s reply, and Julian waves flirtatiously.

I don’t know when I’ll see Julian next, but Opal never stopped.

“What, are you dropping me off?

Claude.

Opal answers Julian’s query and heads with him to the front door.

Claude was already ready, and when he received his jacket and hat from the butler, he kissed Opal’s cheek lightly.

The carriage is already waiting.

“Then I’ll be there, Opal”

“Yeah. Be careful, Claude…. and Julian. Well, be careful.”

“Oh, see you later. Stupid Opal.”

“Julian!”

Speaking like that, Julian sneezed and stroked Opal’s head.

Leaving a laugh at Angry Opal, Julian rushes down the stairs.

“Have a sturdy child, Opal! Well, you don’t have to worry about it!

“You don’t have to tell me. I know, you idiot Julian!

The butler was surprised by the words, which the Duchess and the others had not, and Naja laughed out loud.

Claude laughs with pleasure again, holding Opal softly and putting his hands on his plump tummy.

“Damn, you’re a troubled mother and uncle.”

It’s Julian’s fault.

“Yeah, you are.”

Claude still fully sided with Opal and now kissed that lip.

That is such a gentle kiss to comfort Opal that he misses his goodbye to Julian.

“Well, I’ll be back by dinner. You can’t do that.”

“Yeah, I’m being quiet.”

Claude looked suspicious in response to Opal pushing back tears and smiling.

Opal’s criteria for impossibility are slightly different from those of other women.

As Claude turned her gaze to Naja, she nodded forcefully, leaving it to me.

Claude, hurry up.

“You’re a selfish one.”

“Really.”

Suddenly he pushes me, tells me to take him with me, and now he tells me to hurry.

We both laughed at the Julian-like attitude, and Claude went down the stairs.

Opal stroked his swollen stomach with his other hand as he waved at the carriage running away with that back off.

Creating a warm family with a nice husband, which I dreamed of as a child, is coming true.

Still, this is the first step.

Opal gently laid his hands on his stomach to protect him and went back to the mansion to do what he had to do.
