051 Auntie’s Lesson No.54 Women’s Less Women

****[Catherine, fiancee]****

You were being hated too.

14 years.

During that period, I knew it through my body, but I was mistaken like an idiot.

‘It was as my aunt said.’

When your emotions are greatly shaken, your judgment becomes dull.

“I knew.”

The pen in Katrin’s hand pressed down.

Power comes into your hands automatically.

The cracked paper is cracked.

Her lips curled and her pupils lowered little by little.

‘Chi, I knew that. In this house, I’m just a daughter kept until I get married to the ducal family. Loud and difficult to handle, a colt-like daughter.’

When I originally thought it was, it didn’t matter.

I was happy and full of happy things just by liking Oscar.

“…”

My heart felt sad at the mistake of thinking that my parents loved me.

Maybe the love of my parents that I thought I didn’t need, I don’t know if I actually wanted it.

‘Somehow I’m extremely angry.’

Where should I hit this anger?

Thinking so, Anne sighed.

“Your lady is really too simple.”

“…”

“So how do I get through this rugged social world… Ha, if your marriage is delayed because of worry and you become an old virgin, it’s all the lady’s fault. Remember it. You’ll be rewarded later.”

“…”

Anne squatted in front of Catherine and looked up.

“The Countess’ Teaching No. 54 Woman’s Enemy is Woman. Don’t be fooled by the enemy, I deceive the enemy.”

“Ah! You used me for practice.”

Catherine’s eyes widened, and Anne put on a grave expression.

“It’s not my practice. It’s only for the sake of the lady. I went out to the social world before the lady, so I don’t need practice. I’ve already practiced…”

Anne’s face darkened slightly.

Anne, you’ve already been beaten by someone.

Catherine hugged Anne tightly.

“It’s okay, Anne. I’ll do better in the future.”

“That’s what I’m going to say to my lady.”

Anne let out a small sigh.

In any case, it seems that actual practice is definitely needed.

I heard it from my aunt until I had a nail in my ear, but when Anne actually said it, I didn’t notice at all that it was that.

resolution is renewed

Anne blew her nose as if to shake off her gloom.

“… Just as the Countess said. Society girls are really clever monsters. You’ll have to practice a lot, too.”

After she finished speaking, Anne looked at her quietly.

“By the way… I wonder why you thought you were hated until now.”

“… What are you talking about.”

“The master, the wife, the little master, and the other young ladies, all love the young lady. Well, she’s stubborn, and it’s a headache to do the wrong thing, but you’re the only daughter.”

“Anne, what did you eat wrong? My parents are second, and my older brothers love me?

When I asked because I was stunned, Anne laughed hahahaha.

“To be honest, if you give me money, I’ll do it. Isn’t money the best thing in the world?”

If it were Anne, I would really do that.

Anne smirked and shrugged her shoulders.

“But it’s real. Brothers compete with each other, but the young lady is the younger sister. Youngsters don’t know what to do with the young lady because she’s cute.”

“What kind of nonsense are you talking about, Anne! If it’s cute, ha! If my brothers loved me, I’d be dead already!”

Aside from my parents, my older brothers only have memories of being bullied.

The older brother, who has a big age gap and rarely seen his face, is still a bit better.

However, other older brothers called me a short-haired kid every time our eyes met, said that I looked just like my father, or that I was a boy wearing a skirt.

There were times when I avoided people’s eyes and grabbed their noses, or hit their foreheads with my fingers to bring tears to my eyes.

‘Even thinking about it now, my anger rises.’

Anne also watched everything from the side, what the hell was she talking about?

It might be because of the older brothers that he grew up with this personality.

Catherine giggled, and Anne giggled.

“Did you know? A young lady is really pretty when she has tears in her eyes. She’s really cute when she closes her lips and stares at her with teary eyes. The youngsters just thought that way.”

“Ha! Didn’t Anne really hurt her head or eyes? I still remember the older brothers’ faces at that time. It didn’t make me cry because they were cute. It’s just out of character.”

Acting like a gentle nobleman in front of people while secretly doing that to your younger sister is really just bad-tempered.

Even if you yield a hundred times, the older brothers are bad.

While I was quarreling with Anne, an attendant came with a message from my father.

“Your father is calling you? To the office?”

“Yes, lady. He said to come now.”

The head of an aristocratic family is a very busy person.

Especially on a day like this, when he was busy working in the office, and he rarely called her.

Besides, the office is a place that even mothers rarely enter.

weird.

Catherine looked face to face with Anne next to her.

“My lady, did you do something?”

“No… um… I don’t think so. We’ve been together the whole time, Anne.”

As he said that, no matter how much he shook his head, he couldn’t think of any reason why his father would call him.

Except for one thing.

“if.”

Katrin’s heart started beating.

If anything big enough for her father to call him into the office, it was only related to Oscar.

‘Ho, the marriage talk was broken…’

Otherwise, there would be no reason for my father to call me into the office at this hour.

Besides, there were too many things to do.

Among them, riding a pony to the duke’s house bothered me the most.

At that time, I just laughed and moved on, but maybe Oscar-sama didn’t like it.

She might have thought that she was unladylike, had no manners, and was completely unsuitable for a duchess.

So, like what my mother and father always said, the things I had endured one after another might have exploded.

“I do not know.”

Tears welled up in an instant.

Anne came closer and held her hand.

“It’s all right, miss. It won’t be a big deal. It’s the same as always. He must have called you to preach. I’m sure he did.”

But Anne’s voice was hardened.

She also thinks that this is not normal.

It’s the same in everyone’s eyes.

This is marriage breakup.

‘If this happens, it’s really only weak.’

Catherine bit her lip thinking of her aunt who would soon return to the royal road.

‘I must borrow my aunt’s wisdom and somehow catch Mr. Oscar.’

Asking people to come now and live a life without Oscar is too harsh.

Ever since we met when we were three years old, I’ve only looked at that person, but he’s really too kind.

‘Maybe it’s because of the baron’s daughter.’

Renee, daughter of Baron Meyer.

Recalling the woman’s face, Catherine raised her head.

‘Never take it away. that person is mine He’s my man.’

With roaring anger and determination, Katrin headed to her office.

When the servant opened the door, I saw my father talking to the chief of staff.

The other aides are invisible.

It seems that everyone took a break and left.

Her father has given her an eye, but it seems that the work is not done yet.

He gestured for a moment to wait.

The father turned his head again and looked at the papers with the aide.

The person facing my father was a civil servant who mainly checked laws and documents.

Both of them looked serious and serious.

‘Is it also breaking the marriage story?’

Aristocratic marriages and betrothals are bound by contracts, as well as their termination.

If you destroy it, you will find out each other’s faults, compensate each other, receive compensation, fight, and so on.

It became dark before my eyes.

‘Auntie, please give me courage and strength to go through this hardship.’

While Katrin was muttering to herself, it seemed that her father and the aide’s review of the documents had come to an end.

The aide left the office as if busy, and her father called her closer.

“Catherine, your marriage has been decided.”

It’s really dark in front of my eyes.

Is it to marry someone else as soon as the marriage talks with the duke are broken?

The moment her father opened his mouth again to continue, Catherine couldn’t hold back and shouted.

“No! Father! I absolutely hate it! Even if it means biting my tongue and dying! I’d rather be kicked out. I’ll never marry Oscar! Even if Oscar rejects me, be it a lover or a maid, never!”

Tears flowed down my face as I spoke.

I love you so much, I only know him like this, but how did it happen?

“…”

The father looked at her in silence for a moment.

His father’s figure was smudged by the blurring of his tears, but he could make out enough to see him staring into the air and sighing in amazement.

Catherine stomped her feet like a child.

“Absolutely no!”

It doesn’t matter if you’re like a child or not like a lady.

Even better, since no one would want such a woman for a wife.

If the father still has even a little bit of love for his daughter, he will use it somehow to completely destroy this marriage story.

“Catherine.”

Father let out a long sigh.

“The marriage between you and the Duke of Weiss has been decided. The documents came in a few days ago, and now the documents are almost finished.”

“…uh.”

“How the hell do you get wrong answers like that?”

“Ha, but… I haven’t reached adulthood… Marriage must be a long way off.”

“okay.”

Father sighs again.

As if tired, he put his hand on his forehead and sighed again.

“Under normal circumstances, your marriage would have been formally decided after a few years after you became an adult.

Tears seem to flow in.

My father looked at her with the eyes of an idiot.

“It is said that the Duke of Weiss asked me to marry you as a reward for the attack of the beasts not too long ago. That’s why His Majesty gave me special permission to marry.”

“…”

“But I’m really wondering if I can send you to the Duke’s family now.”

My father seems to be several years old.

After another long sigh, my father spoke in a low voice.

“Please, I’m begging you, so don’t protest against our family… Please be careful.”

“…”

The feeling of feeling sorry for my father seems to disappear like dust, making a noise for some reason.

The father looked at her face blankly and opened his mouth.

“In a week, we will formally exchange and sign the marriage contract with the duke.

My father’s voice continued, but somehow it was far away.

My body seemed to float, and the ground swayed away and came closer and seemed strange.

“Catherine?”

father calls her

When I suddenly looked up, my father’s face came closer.

“Are you okay?”

“father….”

Looking at the pouting beard on her father’s face, Katrin suddenly muttered:

“…I’m getting married.”

oh my god.

After saying that, the words suddenly popped into my head.

me, get married

God, you’re getting married.

with who?

“With Oscar.”

“Catherine, you really are.”

The father’s face changed its shape in amazement and laughed.

father laughs

I’m marrying Oscar.

Random thoughts ran through my head, and the sounds of everyday life slowly began to permeate the stillness where no sound could be heard.

The sound of the wind, the sound of his father’s sighs, even the sound of his own breathing and the rustle of his clothes.

Father muttered, shaking his head.

“Really… I don’t know if I can marry you off. I think I’m doing it wrong. I need to train and prepare more while I’m with you, at least for a year or even a few months.”

I woke up.

“father!”

Before Catherine could say anything, her father put a hand on her head.

“The detailed schedule has not been decided yet. There are many things to prepare or do in the future. So, it’s not like I’m going to the duke’s house right away.”

Lightly stroking her hair, her father continued.

“But once you sign the marriage contract, from that moment on, you are a member of the duchy.

Somehow, the tears started to flow again.

Catherine fell silent and nodded, and her father smiled.

“And… Please, please don’t do anything that our family should compensate for. I really ask you.”

“…”

Dad, I’m so moved.
