How to Be a Dark Hero’s Daughter
Chapter 58.2
Collen continued to have an unpleasant expression.
“Our Leticia is already playing the role of the hostess. We’ll just escort you to the door.”
“Yes.”
I nodded my head. In the end, I had to bid farewell. As I saw Cedric off to the entrance, I carefully asked with a worried heart.
“Are you upset today because of Dad and Jade?”
“No, I’m okay. I’m used to the nobles’ peculiarities. I prefer honesty over fake kindness.”
He’s a true gentleman.
That word came to mind.
“And it was also fun.”
Cedric smiled, his eyes twinkling.
“Seeing nobles unable to remain calm like protective lions around their offspring, it’s something I’ve never seen before. But I understand. Young lady is… a special person.”
Ah, it’s a compliment.
However, I feel like it’s just a courteous compliment. That’s how aristocratic culture is.
‘Isn’t Collen scary?’
Due to the many rumors about the black wizard, ordinary people like Collen but are also afraid of him.
“But why were you standing under the tree in your pajamas since morning?”
“I was going to pick camellia flowers for Dad and brother. They’re so pretty. But I ended up receiving them.”
Cedric rummaged through his coat pocket and took out two clean flowers.
“Please give it to the two of them. It’s too cold to go out again.”
“But they already saw the box full of camellias. Would they still like it?”
“If it’s the young lady giving it, they will even like the pebbles on the street.”
Really?
I received the flowers in the freezing weather.
“Of course it worked. I wanted to give them something I brought myself.”
I handed him the flowers back. Cedric looked at me in surprise and then smiled as he took the flowers again.
“I’ll see you again next time.”
Cedric politely said goodbye and left. I thought he was a kid with a very strange atmosphere.
During breakfast that day, I asked:
“Do princes also run errands?”
“Of course. But he’s the prince that the king loves the most. He’s thoroughly educated in all aspects of talent, including music, art, history, and debate, and even math. He’s a gifted child, and the king treasures him greatly.”
“I see…”
“So if he sent the treasure box through his son who he likes the most, it’s a show of king’s sincerity.”
“But why do you have a look of dissatisfaction?” I asked indirectly.
“That Cedric guy, I don’t like him for some reason. If he grows up, he’ll definitely become a playboy.”
Dad, that’s speciesism… The words rose up to my throat.
“Maybe it’s too early to go to the castle. Shouldn’t we eliminate the pests around Leticia and go?”
“I’ll take care of it, don’t worry. If it’s necessary for the royal family and all that…”
Hearing this, Collen and Jade mutter as if their lives are at stake.
‘Um, I don’t know.’
Anyway, let’s have a meal. The pancakes were deliciously fluffy today, with maple syrup and fruit toppings.
“Mmischievously picked camellias, and not just any flowers, but someone else’s. And on top of that, he took my little sister’s first hand kiss in society?”
“It was just a greeting.”
“Let’s just ban for him entry to the duchy. No, that’s not enough, let’s just ban all boys from entering the duke’s house.”
I didn’t hear anything. I didn’t hear anything. After the meal that day, I whispered to Collen.
“Dad… Thank you for the gift. I’m sorry I didn’t say it earlier because of the sudden guest. When I woke up this morning, I thought I was still in a dream. I’m so happy.”
Collen’s hand holding the tea trembled.
“The jewels are pretty, but I like the pink camellia much more. I’ll remember it for the rest of my life.”
Collen’s mood suddenly brightened upon hearing those words.
“Should I grow them every season?”
“Can you do that?”
“No. I’ll build a greenhouse so the flowers can bloom all year round. It has to be a really big one. We can just build a new one. We might have to revise some magic-related laws, but it’s definitely possible.”
“There’s no need to go that far!”
Of course, something as extravagant as a new greenhouse is also unnecessary. Startled, I raised my hands, and then smiled the next moment.
“It’s okay. Even if the flowers wither and disappear, Dad will be by my side. So, I’m okay with that.”
Collen’s lips parted slightly.
Ah, Collen. He’s happy.
It felt good to feel that way.
I looked out the window. The pink jewel camellia rain continued to fall.
