Chapter 55: CH 28.2

‘If I don’t remember him and only have clear memories of Count Corcos. I’d better get rid of the habit of relying on what I’ve been through.’

I needed to know how to deal when I didn’t have any information about the situation, and I was glad I could ask Zoe for it.

I opened the envelope with the paper knife Matthew gave me and checked the date of the meeting. The date of the temporary meeting was not specified exactly. It only said roughly when he would hold it.

Since vassals from all over the country have to join, it would take a considerable amount of time to coordinate the schedule.

‘There’s a little time until the meeting.’

The subject of the meeting was obvious.

I could imagine they would just say, ‘Let’s designate her a guardian’.

Count Corcos must have been trying hard.

The reason why I left him alone even though I could guess his plan was because I calculated that Cassion would be persuaded faster.

I finally managed to persuade him.

‘It’s going as expected, but I’m upset when I received the notice about the meeting.’

Of course, it was understandable that the vassals were impatient.

I was sure they would be in trouble because the funding they received from Irenberg was being delayed.

‘But they should be able to survive with the estates’ income stream. It’s like here is Nobel, where people is having a hard to make ends meet.’

The lack of Irenberg subsidies for one or two years did not mean that the management of the territory would be severely disrupted.

‘Count Corcos must be playing tricks in the background.’

Count Corcos and the vassals who were swept away by his mouth were disgusting.

“Should I not come?”

“No, Miss!”

It popped out from my mouth when I only thought about it for a second, and Matthew jumped when he heard it.

“I’m going. I’m just kidding.”

There were many ways to stop the meeting. There was a way for me not to come on that day, and there was also a way for me to postpone the meeting next week.

Junas may be punished for unilaterally notifying the head of the family to attend the meeting.

Although it was impossible because currently I wasn’t the head of the family.

It was the second time that the meeting was postponed in the most plausible way.

There were many excuses. I could say that I was sick, or that I was not ready to designate a guardian yet.

I was just a child, so they would understand.

However, I fixed my idea of delaying the meeting.

‘We can’t postpone the meeting anymore.’

I tapped the desk with the corner of the invitation. Constant noise sometimes helped to concentrate.

Soon there would be riots in Nobel.

If I made the appropriate decision to support Nobel before that happened, I could stop the riots.

‘I’ll have to declare at the meeting that I’m marrying Cassion and make sure no one talk about guardianship again. There will be a lot of mountain to cross ahead.’

I got up from my seat and stood by the window.

I opened the window wide.

The window of head of the family’s office faced the royal palace, and this meant that Irenberg and the royal family were firmly connected,

If I stood by the window and looked at the palace on a clear day like today, I could see the highest spire of the palace.

It seemed a long way now, but someday it would me Cassion’s and mine. There was only one mountain to cross before that.

“His Majesty Carmine.”

I had to get permission from Carmine to get marry.

“Your Highness.”

I finally met Cassion.

After the path was blocked, I tried everything I could to find a way to meet Cassion.

‘It’s rather proper to say that Zoe is almost obsessed with finding the way.’

I’ve spent fortune for that.

It was difficult to find an access route because there were only few places in the palace where Julia’s breath could not even reach.

It was hard to bribe the knight. So I had to sneak in a cart. I had to choose this method because it was relatively easy than bribing knight in charge of inspection.

‘Did they let pass it because the cart contains something that had to be delivered secretly to Julia’s palace?’

“Come in, but…….”

Janice laid a lot of straw on the cart. I thought it would be okay when I hide in it, but it wasn’t when I got off.

It took a long time to remove straws from the dress.

I tried hard to take it off, but I guess it was still there.

“Yes, I look terrible. On the other hand, your face looks good.”

Cassion waved his hand affirmatively.

Rupert’s medicine worked well. Cassion looked more comfortable just by the relieving the pain, which he said it was like something wad poking his head.

But it was not a solution.

Every night, Cassion kept getting a high fever  and sometimes he coughed and vomited blood.

Still, compared to when he was lying down all day, his health was surprisingly getting better.

“It’s been a while. How did you get in there?”

“Oh, did you know that I came in and out of the secret path?”

This was unexpected.

“Pollock told me.”

“Did you ask about me?”

Cassion narrowed her eyebrows.

“I was wondering if you couldn’t come because you were hurt by Julia.”

“You were worried.”

“I’m not worried.”

“Then you missed me.”

“No way…”

Cassion said it like he was upset as he held back his words because I put my face too close to his.

Cassion’s face turned red.

“Your Highness, you must be burning up again.”

“It’s because it’s hot! Stay away!”

Seeing how loud he was, I didn’t think he was sick.

“It must be really hot.”
