Undercover Infiltration Duchess - Chapter 225

Extra 3. The End of First Love (3)

But Daniel was innocent. He was a good, intelligent and obedient child who obeyed his elders without a single shout. Whenever he made a mistake and was scolded, he always bowed his head and sincerely reflected on himself. So the people around Daniel, including Marquis Spencer, never got mad at him.

No one was overprotective, but Daniel grew up alone like a flower in a greenhouse.

So he doesn’t know how to avoid the rain and wind himself. It is not something that anyone has protected, so he can’t block it instead.

“Daniel, why don’t you run into it?”

“Grandmother…”

“You haven’t been hurt yet, so you don’t even know what’s wrong with your body. You don’t know where to treat. You’re just in pain.”

If someone can’t cure Daniel.

“Why don’t you get hurt again, and this time you face what you’ve been hurt by.”

She’s sure it’ll hurt while he’s hurt, but he needs to know where and what is hurting to heal.

“Wouldn’t it bother the Duchess of Jaxen?”

“Of course you are.”

Marchioness Spencer admitted calmly. Daniel was intimidated again by the words.

“But if you don’t attend, I’ll worry just as much. The Duchess of Jaxen is a sweet woman.”

If she knew that Daniel hadn’t forgotten her yet and couldn’t come because he didn’t dare to face her, she would also be worried.

Ezet didn’t hate Daniel. She thanked him purely for his kindness.

She just doesn’t accept his love.

“I’ll be at the tea party. Please take me with you.”

“…yes.”

He knows it will hurt. He knows his heart will break when he sees her smiling happily beside Edmond.

Nevertheless, he wanted to see Ezet. He wanted to see her face one more time. He wanted to hear a melodious voice one more time.

He missed her so much that he cried just by meeting her in his dream and calling her by name.

“Then you’ll have to eat something first.”

“Yes…?”

“How surprised would the Duchess of Jaxen be to see you now? She’s invited the family, but you shouldn’t worry about the Duchess of Jaxen.”

Daniel, who couldn’t eat or sleep properly for a while, was very thin. He was still beautiful, but he looked so precarious.

A beautiful flower in bloom gathers close to see him, but one cannot be close to a precarious flower that may wither at any time because one is afraid that it will wither after touching it incorrectly.

Daniel was now in danger like a glass doll hanging from a stretched thread.

“Daniel, do you want to worry the Duchess of Jaxen?”

“No…”

“When you go to meet someone you love, it’s usually the heart of a person to dress up to look more beautiful than usual.”

“……”

“If you really can’t let go of the heart of honoring the Duchess of Jaxen, you have to show your most beautiful self when you go to see her.”

Daniel nodded quietly.

There is no appetite. There is no desire. He didn’t want to show her such an unseemly figure, who repeatedly fell asleep while wandering helplessly around the streets.

It’s not the heart of a man who wants to show the best and most beautiful appearance to a woman he loves.

“Grandmother.”

“Hm?”

“Well, could you postpone the tea party a little?”

***

The sky was very clear that day. It was a perfect day for a tea party outdoors because the sun was not hot and the cool wind blew.

Not knowing that Edmond controlled the weather around the Duchy with Mana Stones, Ezet said she’s glad the weather was nice on a big day.

“Edmond, isn’t the table too small?”

“Rather than sitting around a large table, it is better to have several small tables and talk while moving around. It’s hard to talk to each other when there are too many people in one seat.”

“I see. I didn’t think of that.”

Ezet, embarrassed, wrapped his cheeks and lowered her eyes. Adorable, Edmond held her in his arms and pressed down on her desire to kiss her immediately, turning to the gate.

The gate, coordinates, and manipulations that can warp from Marchioness Spencer to Jaxen Duchy have been sent at once, so if there are no variables, they will be no variables.

The problem is.

‘…that little boy will follow them.’

When the news of his marriage to Ezet was revealed, Daniel’s face looked like he had seen the world collapse. He did not attend Edmond and Ezet’s wedding. Ezet was worried about him, but Edmond said he would need time to clear his mind.

It’s just that Edmond was relieved because he couldn’t see Daniel.

And now he’s coming to the tea party?

Edmond’s temper has become uncomfortable. He was just looking at his lovely wife. Inside and out, Edmond smiled softly in front of Ezet.

“You’re looking forward to the tea party.”

“Yes, it’s my first time getting together just like this.”

With her family.

It was only Edmond and Ezet because Erit was absent, but it was rather good.

He was pleased that Ezet seemed to regard Edmond as a ‘family.’

“They seem to have arrived.”

“Oh, my God. Really?”

A twinkle in the dome of Warp Hall, and the Marquis Spencer family emerged.

The first daughter of Marquis Spencer. Then the second daughter and the third daughter slowly walked down the stairs, and Daniel, who was worried that the grandmother might fall, followed her with his arms folded by Marchioness Spencer.

“Thank you for inviting me, Duke of Jaxen, Duchess of Jaxen.”

“I’m grateful for the invitation. Welcome.”

Ezet welcomed the three ladies and greeted Marchioness Spencer lightly. As soon as her gaze was directed at Daniel, Daniel’s arm tightened. He didn’t mean to be nervous, but he felt his back and legs stiffened.
