âOf course, thatâs what I should do. More than that, I apologized . . .â
âOf course not! Thank you so much! Thank you very much!â
Rieta continued to cut off his words so that he could not speak of his complaints.
âOther than that, Princess.â
âIâm sorry that everyone is standing because of me.â
Noel was troubled, and Rieta only now knew she had made a big mistake.
âWell then, Iâm sorry . . .â
. . . He didnât ask for another snack, he was sorry for keeping everyone standing.
Rieta became a little shy, and blushed.
âThank you for inviting me, Iâm Noel of Mayer.â
Noel greeted the ladies with a somewhat exaggerated tone.
Thanks to this, Rietaâs shy appearance was not noticed by anyone.
It must have been that he was helping others not to see the way I was embarrassed.
Of course, it is questionable whether Noel was a person who can have such a wonderful idea.
After that, Noel continued to be a âperfect gentlemanâ.
Of course, there were times when he made Rieta nervous.
âYou said you caught a very large stag beetle in a hunting contest?â
Rieta was startled by the question from a young lady and turned to Noel.
At the thought that the handsome Noel might forget the virtue of humility.
âYes, I found it by accident. I was very lucky.â
But Noel did not forget that virtue.
âIt was nice to be able to spend time with my father.â
Besides, he didnât forget to add something that seemed like a very nice kid.
Although Rieta was relieved inside, she felt strangely strange.
Especially when Noel casually ate sugar candy and said âItâs delicious.â She felt strangely sulky.
When Rieta ate sugary sweets, he only had such a terrible expression on his face.
Rieta turned her gaze away from him.
Noel really only had one drink and got up.
After he had greeted everyone, he entered in the Duchyâs carriage, which was waiting for him.
On the way back to the mansion . . .
Rieta stared at Noelâs face, who was sitting opposite her.
With a very suspicious look.
âThatâs what I want to say. Noel, what are you really doing?â
With an innocent face, he said, âWhat?â
Oh my God, how could you do that with such an innocent face!
Rieta answered in a slightly exasperated voice.
âThat is! The Noel recently!â
But she never dared to say, âActed like the perfect gentleman!â
What if Noel came back to normal after saying that . . .
But this Noel, who was overly kind, was somehow strange.
By this point, Rieta had come to the point where she didnât know what she wanted.
Noel is still waiting for Rieta to speak.

She doesnât know what to say.
Eventually, Rieta turned her head to look out the window.
But Noel seemed to want to hear Rietaâs story.
Seeing how he calms the mood and adjusts the mood.
He thought she would fall for it.
âI mean, I feel bad.â
Rietaâs answer made him look very shocked.
No, is that something to be so hurt . . .?
In the past, or even just a few days ago, when Rieta answered, âI mean, I feel bad,â Noel had laughed and enjoyed it!
In any case, Rieta felt somewhat sorry for Noel.
Because she didnât mean to hurt him.
âIâm sorry, Noel, I really didnât mean to offend.â
âI was just upset because I thought, for some reason, that Noel seemed to be hiding something from me.â
What the hell happened to make you stop and act like this?
No matter how much she complained, Noel smiled again with a gentlemanâs smile. And answered,
âHi, hiding something?â
Noel would lose his composure at once, and he began to feel panic.
Rieta was also embarrassed by the unexpected answer.
Not knowing how to react anymore, Rieta just stared at Noel for a long time.
Didnât he realize that his gaze was pushing Noel further away?
The strange silence ended just when the carriage rattled.
Rieta had a little more courage and decided to ask something more specific than before.
She wondered if something had happened the last time he went to Count McLean.
Since he came back from there, heâs always been like this.
âYou know, Noel, maybe . . .â
But Rietaâs question did not end there.
He suddenly smiled and stood up from the spot.
Everything from ear to neck is red, even the face.
âI didnât lie! Really!â
Of course, after Noel screamed like that.
The carriage became quiet again.
Instead, the eyes staring at each other became very deep.
Noel felt with his whole body the saying, âYou can kill a person just with your eyesâ.
Noel was so embarrassed that he couldnât even sit down.
How hard has he been trying to keep the gentlemanâs behavior so far, but he showed a futile expression as usual.
Should I act like a perfect gentleman again? Or the way I was beforeâŚâ
He was confused because he couldnât decide his course of action.
