From that day on, she began to exchange letters with Prince Augusto.
He wrote back much stuff that’s difficult to talk about and it made her feel uneasy. After all, it was mainly about the economy.
She was so angry that she couldn’t understand what he was talking about that she ended up reading a book about economics at her husband’s study, deciphering the letter.
Of course, she heard things from her nanny about raising children. Iria von Lulin even prepared some articles about babies.
As for her husband, he became the teacher for the cavalry.
These days, he seemed to always come back on time and had dinner with them.
As always, she was a little irritated about the fact that she had been with honey-like people for a long time.
She was going to tell her husband about the little exchange between her and his highness but couldn’t get the right timing to do so.
As the day went by, it became even harder to tell. Now, it looks like a little secret between the two of them.
Strangely, the situation became similar to that of the previous case of the crown prince. She met her husband frequently but she couldn’t say anything.
The prince asked her to explain but she was told it was absolutely impossible.
She thought it was impossible to even imagine the scene that her husband would come and find her.
She felt that the unity between her and the prince increased, they had an even closer relationship.
The contents of the letter had changed from economy to a story remembering her husband.
“Looks fun.”
“Hai??”
Her loose muscle on the cheeks seemed to stiffen in a second.
Her husband was sitting on the couch in front of her. How long has he been there?
“Why didn’t you tell me?”
“I’ve just returned.”
“… oh, okay.”
Apparently, she was too focused on the letter that she didn’t notice her husband’s return.
Frustrated, she folded the letter in an awkward manner and put it in an envelope.
Soon, as she thought it would be alright now, her husband’s gaze was on the letter. She hid the letter behind her palms.
“T-today at work…”
“Ah.”
Her husband spoke to her with his usual sweet honey smile on his face. She was listening and thinking it was rare for him to talk about work.
“His highness Augusto had something to do. He was always in his study, reading a letter just like Hermina with her cheeks loosen up.”
“!?”
It was probably her letter that she arranged to arrive at about noon today.
The prince seemed to have written a reply at once and it was delivered an hour before.
She didn’t think that they would be seen as they were reading the letters.
She had written a letter about her husband asking for a kiss on the cheek as a reward for his hard work. She wondered if it was such an interesting story.
“And—”
“!”
As she was pondering about it, her husband’s voice sounded a little harsh in her ears and made her shiver.
Her husband’s eyes were smiling but not a smile.
“I’m very glad that his highness has been writing to a woman lately, thinking that his spring finally came.”
“Oh.”
She only had a bad feeling.
