“It is highly unlikely, but…”

Carcel was suspicious of the existence of another Rosito.

The five families that had the most Rositos, no, the families that were only four now didn’t have Rosito yet.

Since there are no new children being born, the possibility of Rosito is extremely low.

However, on the other hand, this possibility cannot be completely ruled out.

Didn’t they hide Theo in the palace so no one will find out that he’s Rosito?

Perhaps other families hide the presence of the newly born Rosito and are looking for the right person.

Is there a new Rosito or not?

Either way, it was necessary to know more about the whereabouts of the person looking for the right person.

“As for Rosito, I’ll look into it, let’s do some more research on who is looking for the right person.”

“Good .”

“Thanks for the good information.”

“It’s nothing, of course, that’s what I should do….right.”

Morris remembered something and raised his head.

“I couldn’t be sure whether or not she was a suitable person, but I had heard some rumors about Miss Owen.”

“Miss Owen?”

“Yeah, I heard she almost died about 7 or 8 years ago. They said she barely made it.”

“Then why didn’t you check?”

“They said she wasn’t on the property and she went on a trip… Shall I check where she was?”

Carcel shook his head.

“It would be good to check in with that too, you might also find the one who is looking for the right person.”

“Good .”

After finishing the conversation, Morris frowned.

“But there….”

“What ?”

He licked his lips and closed his eyes tightly.

“If you said all you have to say, can I leave now?”

“Yes .”

Wow, that’s good. The fact that there was another Rosito seems to have diverted Carcel’s attention.

Now, it looks like he’s going to stop questioning me about Miss Lannia.

“Oh, yeah, and….”

“…… What?”

“In the future, please refrain from appearing in front of Miss Lannia.”

Oh my God, I thought you forgot! Morris put his hands together.

“I-I will do as you command.”

***

An hour earlier, Charlotte, having become acquainted with the palace staff, went with Theo to the garden.

That was because she had heard that Carcel had built a field there.

Could it be due to the fact that it was placed in a large greenhouse?

The second field was much larger than the first field.

 Perhaps thanks to growing it in a warm greenhouse, it had such big vegetables.

“Amazing !”

Theo was excited. However, the kid was very sad that he would be separated from his vegetable friends when he left the capital.

Finally, with tears in his eyes, he said goodbye before leaving the palace: “Farewell carrots, farewell potatoes.”

I didn’t know that a field can be created here as well.

At the time, Charlotte almost admired what Carcel had to offer.

A silver-haired man whom she had never seen before appeared and wanted to say hello to Theo, but immediately asked her out. Doesn’t this person know that I’m Carcel’s fiancée? No matter how ignorant he was, he wouldn’t be able to do it if he knew.

Exactly as expected.

Morris’s face turned completely white when Randro introduced her as Carcel’s fiancée.

Carcel looked at Morris with the same sharp eyes he had when he first met Charlotte.

And as if he was jealous.

‘It must be an illusion.’

Charlotte, who was watching the three leave the greenhouse, summed it up this way.

‘Looks like he has some urgent business and not because he’s been flirting with me here.’

When I thought about it, I was relieved. Charlotte asked the child in a voice as excited as Theo’s.

“What should we order today?”

“Tomatoes, cheese!”

Theo exclaimed excitedly. The food the kid said was pizza.

Although the name is different, it looks like a pizza, but Theo loved pizza filled with fresh cheese.

“Yeah, and let’s make today potatoes and bacon.”

Theo swallowed his saliva, making his mouth water as he thought about it.

“I love that !”

“The seafood here will be fresh, so should I ask for the shrimp?”

“I love shrimp too!”

“Okay, now shall we pick the tomatoes?”

“Yes !”

Charlotte helped Theo pick ripe tomatoes. After picking enough to give to Emma and Celine, she got up.

“Come on, Theo.”

Shall we go back now? When she was about to ask.

“Miss .”

I heard Carcel’s voice and quickly approached the two. Charlotte greeted him and put the basket of tomatoes aside.

“Have you finished talking to Sir Morris?”

“Yes .”

Carcel approached Charlotte. He was looking at her rather heatedly, so Charlotte took a step back.

Then Carcel took a step closer. If you take a step back, he will take a step forward, and if you run away, he will follow her again.

The distance between them did not expand at all.

In the end, Charlotte gave in and rolled her eyes.

“What were you two talking about, it must have been a serious story.”

“……….”

“Oh, I shouldn’t have asked. It must be a top secret story that outsiders shouldn’t know.”

“Why are you an outsider?”

“What ?”

“Miss is my fiancée.”

But I’m a fiancée by contract. I couldn’t say that because I had a hunch that Carcel would be disappointed if I said so.

Even now, Charlotte’s words had seemed unpleasantly stranger to him, which gave her some courage.

“So may I ask what you two talked about?”

“Sir Morris was looking for a new suitable person.”

“A suitable person? Since when? The Duke said I…. No, are you just preparing in case…”

Charlotte was asking if he was preparing to break the contract early, but Carcel shook his head.

“I didn’t ask for it. My late father ordered it.”

“But why the duke….”

Didn’t you know? Charlotte could not finish her words. That was because an even deeper look was on Carcel’s face.

“He requested that the matter be kept a secret.”

“………”

“Maybe my father wasn’t very trusting of me?”

no not like that. This was the thought of Charlotte, who knew the original story.

It’s not that the former duke didn’t trust Carcel, just that he loved him so much that he did.

Perhaps the new right person Morris is looking for isn’t for Theo but rather for Carcel.

This was in case Sir Heather left the house if Theo learned to control mana and no longer needed a suitable person.

They were going to keep it a secret just in case Carcel wouldn’t get suspicious.

“But Morris gave a strange report.”

“Why ?”

“Randro called him a week ago and asked him to hurry up and find a suitable new person.”

“What?”

“Randro knew the miss was there, but why…”

Carcel was confused by Randro’s solitary act, but Charlotte could understand why he had done it.

‘He was trying to get me out of here.’

He’s erased my memories of Edgar, but he can’t be relieved.

Maybe this is Robert’s plan. Robert was one of the few who knew that Charlotte was a contractual fiancée.

Once Morris finds someone new he may have an excuse to send her away.

“It must have been because of losing Sir Heather that he thought nothing would ever happen to him….”

Charlotte lowered her voice just in case Theo could hear. Luckily, Theo has been snooping around potatoes, paying no heed to the two of them.

“I’m more likely to be in danger than Sir Heather. I can’t even use a sword or magic…”

“You don’t have to worry about it. Didn’t I already promise to keep you safe?”

“It’s true, but we never know.”

“That will never happen.”

Carcel, who responded with a strong word, letter by letter, seemed somewhat angry.

Charlotte changed the subject because she felt that if we kept talking about this, we were going to be at odds with each other.

“The field is so big. I’m sure everyone had a hard time getting ready. Next time, I’ll ask the kitchen to cook something delicious for the staff. Will that be okay?”

“You will be the hostess of this palace, of course, you can do whatever you want.”

Charlotte had no intention of pretending to be the hostess of the palace, though she was his fiancée. With the help of Irina, I tried to take care of only what was necessary.

I didn’t think of making a luxury using the duke’s money and or making the servants eat as they pleased.

But it was the first time Carcel had recognized her as a hostess.

Charlotte made a joke out of embarrassment.

“Would you even hold a festival if I asked you to do so?”

“If that’s what you want, I’ll be ready.”

“No, no! I didn’t really mean to have a festival. Why are you taking my joke so seriously?”

“I wasn’t kidding.”
