Chapter 33

Ch . 33 True Feelings

Wait a second, Duke . Just now, did you say that you will break up with your sweetheart?

Moreover, somehow the cause of it, is me? And I have been left out of the conversation? What is this?, this situation!

“Umm~, can I have a word?”

The eyes of all the people in this place instantly jump over to me who has uttered this .

I am very sorry to force my way through the space of the Duke and Calendula’s staring at each other (glaring?) but, it is because I think here, through, the courage I have summoned up, I must get confirmation .

“What is it?”

The Duke removes his gaze away and, looks in my direction . Later than the Duke, Calendula also faces my direction .

“I am very sorry for interrupting such an exciting [conversation] but, there is something I want to confirm . ”

“Something to confirm?”

“Yes . ”

I come forth from hiding behind Dahlia, to a place where I am able to directly see the Duke . however, as ever, Lotus is between Calendula and I .

“You said you will break up with your sweetheart but, in that situation how will the contract with me end up?

“Huh?”

“Eh?”

The Duke and Calendula simultaneously become stare in wonder .

“After all, I am a decoration wife based on your sweetheart? What is it called if She is gone? Originally it was to cover up . ”

I think it is not that surprising? Did I say something odd? I tilt my head and think but, nothing comes to mind .

“Well, that is right......”

“Therefore, it means my position has become delicate . ”

“Why?”

“After all, if Duke, and your sweetheart, you can now you can probably go out with anyone? To borrow Duke’s words, just because Her origins are like that, you are unable to get married . If it is a person of suitable social status there would be no problem at all . ”

“Certainly, as I said . ”

“If that is the case, the decorative me will become unnecessary . Rather perhaps I should say a hinderance . ”

“But what I said was to break up with Calen, not to break off the marriage with you, Viola! Rather I think Viola is pleasant so I think, for sure, that I want to break up!”

In a hurry the Duke comes over to me walking briskly with those long legs . Coming close to me his face is at a higher position than me so I have to look up at him, which is painful . However while I plainly focus on those dark pupils,

“Even though you have abruptly said such things, I have not looked or thought of you, Duke, in such a manner, so it is troubling . ”

At last I have ended up saying my true feelings .

“Is it like that, after all?”

Listening to my true feelings the Duke is obviously crestfallen and drops his shoulders . His beautiful eyebrows are also now miserably drawn in a frown .

“Because, did not Duke say in the beginning that you have a beloved sweetheart?”

By no means, who would have thought that, that target would shift to me!

“At that time it was true! However the more I encountered you, the more I talked with you I was charmed by Viola!”

The Duke declares testily, his face going red .

“For arguments sake, let us assume that is true, is it not two-timing, so to speak, if you are coming and going between the detached building and here?”

“......”

As expected it is awkward, he averts his gaze .

“There are a lot of rich people who are surrounded by lovers, so this is not a crime in itself, but Duke, you thought you cherished Her to the extent that you proposed a contract with me and yet, it is disappointing . ”

His gaze is averted but, I say this while still glaring at the Duke’s face . I declared it with a breather! Fu, it is refreshing .

“Viola......”

The Duke, perhaps to give a rebuttal, returns his gaze to me and opens mouth when .

“Ahahahahaha!!!”

Earth-shattering light-hearted laughter abruptly resounds in the entrance way .

Everyone is startled at this abrupt thing and converge their gazes in the direction of that laughter . There is Calendula who has been silently listening to me and the Duke’s back and forth .

Her mouth is concealed by the fan but, she is holding her stomach in extreme amusement and laughing greatly . Certainly the roar of laughter was this .

“Ca... Calen?!”

The Duke is surprised, his eyes are blinking .

“I wonder what happened?”

“I don’t know?”

Me and Dahlia’s eyes meet and make eye contact . On the opposite side Mimosa is also flabbergasted but, only Lotus is standing calm (no, rather in coldhearted-butler-mode) as always .

In such a surrounding atmosphere Calendula is unconcernedly crying and laughing .

“Ah~, is it amusing! Cercis, your feelings are not being conveyed to Mistress in the slightest!!”

Surely she is insane?! Or so we thought, but it seems like the situation was that Calendula was filled with laughter at the Duke and I’s difference in communication . Thank goodness .

While wiping her tears that have seeped out from laughing too much with her pretty finger,

“What is this difference in communication! Ah-I ended up laughing strangely . Sorry, Cercis . I dislike incompetence . I wonder when such incompetence was reached?”

“Haa?!”

Again the Duke is startled at Calendula’s sudden change and now he is suddenly recognized as incompetent so, his beautiful face is stiffened from the shock . He has probably not been told such things until now so, I estimate it did considerate damage . My condolences .

“Such an incompetent you, from here I refuse . You say you break up with me? It is laughable . Such a effeminate man, Mistress, I gift this present!”

Saying this Calendula looks in my direction .

“No, no, no, no”

I express ‘no’ while energetically crossing my hands in front of my body then,

“Ahahaha! Your Wife also said she has no need from you! What to do? Cercis . Well, at best you will have a hard time not breaking up with your Wife! Even though you, Wife, is such a pretty, interesting and level-headed person, you are wasteful . ”

Again seemingly in amusement her body twist and, she holds down her stomach . The roar of laughter does not stop .

“Calen!”

“Well, anyhow, my love and everything else for Cercis has completely disappeared by being shown this incompetent appearance! I will quickly go from this place . Ah, the dresses and jewellery I will receive instead of consolation money . Well then, Mistress, I give my best regards for later!”

Huh? Huh? No way, she is passing the whole thing onto me, doing nothing herself?!

“Huh? Sweat-heart is......”

“As I have been so far, I will make a living as a dancer so it is okay . It is not necessary to worry . Women are courageous things,”

*broad grin*, this smile is a dark smiling face . Uh huh, it seems she will be okay .

And then Calendula elegantly puffs out her dress hem and turns back, with a unhesitating manner of walking, she proceeds to gallantly go out of the door where Mimosa is waiting, holding it open . Aah, surely she has gone with the wind!

......the Duke is left behind .

He is certainly dumb-founded . I have beaten the hell out of him, Calendula has also beaten the hell out off him . Now there is no chance to stand up . It seems he is in the depths of shock .

He is so shocked his complexion is also, is passing from blue to white . He has transformed into a petit maimed man .
