Fernando, my close friend and the Marquess of the border, inherited his parents' position at a young age, and he had a certain air of detachment, but he was a good-natured guy.
That's why when I introduced the beautiful Isabella Norman as his fiancée, I genuinely wanted to support him.
I believed that he would make Isabella happy.
Isabella has a younger sister, Sylvia Norman—rumored to be a genius magician, the first in the Norman family, with exceptional talent.
However, there were also rumors that she had a terrible personality.
Specifically, the rumor was that she was a sister who took everything from her older sister.
It was said that she boldly took Isabella's things and used them as if they were her own.
When I saw her at a party, she was dressed entirely in what Isabella had worn.
My eyes, which had watched over Isabella for so long, could not be deceived. That woman was a dirty thief.
And now, that wicked Sylvia had apparently taken her sister's fiancé.
I couldn't believe it.
For her to have taken the fiancé meant that Fernando had also been involved in the decision.
"Fernando-sama is heartless. I have always admired him."
With tears in her beautiful eyes, Isabella complained to me about her ex-fiancé.
At that moment, my blood boiled.
I couldn't forgive Fernando for making such a cute girl cry.
"Poor Isabella. Yeah, I understand. As I said before, I'll give him a lecture. If you want, I can even use the power of the royal family to strip him of his position as Marquess."
"Alvin-sama..."
"Isabella..."
Oh, even though we were engaged, I kissed her, but it's okay, right? We aren't married yet.
Isabella was so lovely and charming at that time.
Sigh, if I weren't engaged to Laila, the princess of the great kingdom of Nartoria, Isabella would be mine by now.
Laila is so jealous and controlling. If I were to cheat, it could become an international issue. I have no choice but to give up.
If I told her I was switching to Isabella, she might even kill Isabella.
"My beautiful Isabella. I will act for you. I left my true love with you."
Oh, that's a good line. I should write it down.
Next time, I'll ask Isabella and kiss her one more time.
Anyway, going to that damn rural border area isn't easy.
My father was a close friend of the late Marquess Fernando's father and trusted him with a vast territory.
I remember, my father used to tell me to learn from Fernando.
He was a good friend and indeed excellent, but I always felt uneasy. After all, he was just the son of a Marquess, and there was no way he could be greater than me, a prince. Our statuses are different.
Phew, finally here.
I came all the way to this remote place.
You better appreciate my lecture, Fernando!
"Fernando, do you know why I came to see you!?"
"Prince Alvin, thank you for coming from so far. I understand. You've heard about the border's holy maiden, haven't you? You're quick. I didn't think the rumor would reach the capital so soon..."
"Huh, the border's holy maiden? What's that?"
"What? You didn't hear about Sylvia?"
The thief Sylvia is a holy maiden?
What's going on? What's happening...
Forget it! It doesn't matter!
Anyway, it's time for a lecture! A lecture! I don't want to hear any excuses!
Alvin is a regular cheater.
