During breakfast the next day, we braced ourselves and put the plan we’d formulated yesterday into motion. As long as Lord Nazel or I were present, Miss Sonia’s parents wouldn’t be harsher on her than necessary. We were planning on taking advantage of that.

“And so, I became good friends with Miss Sonia yesterday. I would just love for her to come and visit our territory, so I extended an invitation to her. May she accompany us when we leave for Sutrena?”

Miss Sonia’s parents shook in their seats, presumably dumbfounded that we could have gotten close in a single night. They didn’t raise their voices or make a fuss, but I could tell that various complicated emotions were swirling around in their minds.

“Oho ho, goodness me, Lady Agnes. Sonia is a truly inadequate girl. She’s vulgar and unrefined, with no manners to speak of. She’s only going to cause trouble for everyone at Sutrena.”

What an awful thing to say about her own daughter. Miss Sonia, who was tearing pieces off a slice of bread, bitterly lowered her head.

I need to give her a helping hand.

I immediately stood up for Miss Sonia as I addressed her parents.

“I respectfully disagree. Miss Sonia is a gentle and lovely person. She taught me how to sew—she’s quite skilled at mending clothes—and even showed me the trick to sweeping properly.”

I observed Miss Sonia’s family carefully as I spoke, and they all averted their eyes awkwardly. They seemed worried that I’d discovered how they’d been working her to the bone. If you’re going to regret it, you shouldn’t have treated her that way in the first place.

However, Miss Furla quickly recovered, her walnut eyes sparkling as she spoke in an inappropriately cheerful voice.

“Awww, it’s no fair that only sister dearest gets to gooo! I also want to visit Lord Nazelbart’s estate! ☆” Her cheeks were rosy as she focused her gaze straight at Lord Nazelbart.

Uh, Lord Nazel’s a married man. As his wife, I was getting somewhat troubled by her flirtatious behavior.

Lady Lydia, seemingly unaware of my mental state, started going on and on, trying to join her daughter’s line of attack.

“Th-That’s certainly fine! Feel free to visit them, Furla. But as this is a formal visit, I’d like a few days for us to prepare. Oho ho ho!”

I imagined Count Lubhuta would be dropping by in those few days’ time.

You really want to make your daughter the count’s concubine no matter what, don’t you? Are you after his influence or his money? Or do you simply wish to torment Miss Sonia?

If Miss Sonia was taken to the capital in those few days Lady Lydia was talking about, Miss Furla would end up coming to Sutrena alone, completely defeating the point of our entire plan.

How do we get through this without rocking the boat?

I was at a complete loss, until Lord Nazel threw me a lifeline.

“Actually, Agnes would like to ask for Miss Sonia’s advice regarding our upcoming wedding ceremony. That’s why this invitation was so sudden. I heard that Miss Sonia will also be leaving home to get married soon.
