Chapter 10-2
Adelaira, the Dukes mansion, Harnetts room.
Sion entered the room supporting Hanette.
At first, Hannet seemed to walk well, but soon she stumbled, and Sion had to catch her.
Yenid glanced at the drunken Hanette from far, but only checked her condition briefly before quietly passing by.
Ugh, Im sleepy.
Youre sleepy at a time like this? Geez
Sion signed as he laid Hannet on the bed.
Hannet found the blanket by herself and quickly covered herself.
Are you sure youre just drunk? You seem to be pretending.
Then you shouldve just left me behind.
What do you think will happen to me if I leave my sister?
Then, Ill take you with me. Hehehe.
Hannet laughed happily and closed her eyes.
Sion chuckled and turned away.
They had returned to the mansion, so the maids could take care of the rest.
Ah, wait a minute.
Hanette seemed to realize something and grabbed Sions hand.
Sion frowned and turned his head slightly.
Why again?
You guys go out.
As Hannet gave the order, the maids who were inside quickly disappeared.
Sion tried to use force on his hand, but eventually approached the bed.
What do you want to talk about?
Come closer.
Just say it from there.
Ah, dont be like that.
Hannet didnt let go of his hand.
Sion sighed and reluctantly bent his waist.
It felt like the smell of alcohol and a faint perfume were lingering in his nose.
Can you tell me now?
I had a good idea.
What idea?
Just stay here a little longer with me.
Why?
Then we can do something together, like tricking my father and mother. Isnt it fun? Hehehe.
For the first time, Hannet smiled brightly and showed a relaxed look in her eyes.
Sion looked at her as if she was pitiful, but still felt a little curious.
Trick them by deceiving two people? What do we gain from that?
A petty revenge? A small sense of satisfaction? Just unexpected fun?
Youre trying to make me a bad person. I want to live a good life.
Oh, and one more thing. You can gain my trust. It may not be much, but do your best.
Hannet spreads her fingers and bends them slightly, while Sion slowly rises with a disappointed expression.
If I dont do it, Youll say come up with something more ridiculous.
We agreed to cooperate. We have to keep our promise.
Well, the sun is setting Ill join you for a while.
After a brief thought, Sion quickly moves on.
He locks the door first, unfolds the curtain to cover the window completely, and finally brings a chair to place it next to the bed.
Is it thorough enough?
It has to be. If we make any noise, itll really seem like weve done something wrong, so we have to stay quiet.
Hehehe then I have to help too.
Hannet pulls off the blanket and quickly unbuttons her suit.
Seeing this, Sion grabs Hannets hand in surprise.
What are you doing?
If we are doint it, we have to show the evidence.
.lets just do it moderately. We only have to make them suspicious.
Oh, is that so?
Hannet throws her jacket over and touches her shirt.
She only unbuttons a few buttons on the collar and lifts the blanket again.
Is it over now?
Ughlets talk about something else.
Why? Are you a little excited?
Its not excitement, its making me sick.
Isnt it exciting enough to make your heart flutter?
Im not excited at all, so just be quiet.
Do you want to see once? And then after seeing it
Hannet puts her finger back on the edge of her shirt.
At the same time, Sion grabs Hannetts hand.
What are you mean by See?
Is there anything wrong with looking?
Youll regret it when you wake up.
Hmmis that so?
Hannet looks up at Sion, removing her from her skirt.
Sion finally lets go of Hannetts hand and sits on the chair.
How long are you going to stay here?
Until my sister falls asleep.
Youre going to stay up all night?
Ill leave when its time, so just be quiet and sleep.
Ill try my best. Ugh
Hannett yawns and slowly closes her eyes.
Sion, feeling tired, belatedly, stretches out his arms.
Whats that.?.. Did she fall asleep right after speaking?
Sion puts his hand on the tip of Hannetts nose to check her breathing and confirms that she has fallen asleep.
They had only been to the pub, but how could she be this tired?
I wonder why Im doing this. Shes such a high-maintenance fianc.

Adelaides mansion, the guest room.
Robbins and Yenid received news from a maid that they had been waiting for.
Sion had entered Hannetts room and had not come out yet. This was a good sign, and it could lead to the result they had been hoping for.
I told you so. It was just a matter of leaving them alone.
We still dont know for sure. Dont you think its possible that theyre just talking to each other?
Yenid sensed that possibility intuitively.
Hanette was not likely to easily accept Sions existence. Even nobles themselves were not allowed to approach her until just after their engagement. How could someone who had just gotten engaged be allowed to be so close to her?
But its already a good thing. Hannett, who never allows a man near her, but she allowed a man in her room now. That too in night. Didnt it go as we wanted.?
Still, shouldnt we keep watching a little more?
If its certain, we can just marry them right away. Even Lord Marquis Laird agreed to it.
