“What? Is there such a thing? How is that? Please let me know!”

Sylvia cried with a desperate face.

“But I don’t know if it will work out. It is not easy to break up the relationship that your father has chosen.”

Prim said while fixing her mask.

. Prim recalled her name.

“By any chance, if you don’t mind, can you help me study painting?”

“Me?”

Elena looked puzzled at the sudden request.

“Yes. I haven’t been to this empire for a long time, so I don’t know a lot of things. If you don’t mind, I’d like to know about the good paintings and famous writers from the Empire.

“But..”

“I’m not that close to anyone. It would be nice if Lady Elena could help me…Would it be difficult?”

Elena looked at Prim in guilt.

For her, Primabel was a really amazing lady. She solved the affairs of the young ladies in a unique way, and even relieved the situation.

A person that is so different from herself. And…the first person that asked her to teach painting

Elena couldn’t refuse her.

“Yes, I can help you.”

She nodded shyly.

Done. Prim had a good time at the teahouse. She has been given a chance to go after one of the Beauty candidates.

“Then shall we make an appointment?”

So they decided to meet three times a week at the teahouse.

“I’m ashamed to say this…”

Before getting into the carriage, Elena carefully glanced at Prim.

“I’ve never made an appointment with someone. I think I have a friend.” (Elena)

Elena said and smiled shyly. It was like a confession.

“…… I’ll see you on the day we promised.” (Elena)

Elena rushed into the carriage because she was embarrassed.

Prim smiled as she watched the carriage moving away.

When she met Elena, it would be easier to get to know about other young noble ladies.

Then we can look for more beautiful candidates. She wishes Elena were the beauty. That’s what Prim thought as she moved into her carriage.

It was dark before she knew it. Prim was hesitant to go to Reynsis’s room. But she wanted to show her face.

“Your Highness.”

She called him out. She even knocked on the door, but she couldn’t hear anything.

“Are you sleeping?”

Still, there was no answer. He seemed to be sleeping.

“I will be back next time.”

She wants to go back to her room.

But suddenly, a loud thud was heard from inside Reynsis’s room.

“Prince? Is something wrong!?”

Prim was surprised and hurriedly opened the door.

“What are you doing?”

The study table fell down and Reynsis was in a sloppy condition as if he was flipped and fell down from his chair.

Prim stared at the messy books, then turned her eyes towards him.

What surprised her so much, is that he had a confused face. +

“Are you sick?” 1
