When Zachary spoke firmly as if talking the reality of the world, Iellie laughed awkwardly as she requested.

“Come to think about it, didn’t you not like Asha flowers very a lot?”

“It was. I like something so long as you prefer it.”

He shrugged his shoulders.

Pink flowers resembling Iellie. As well as, Asha flowers have been symbolic flowers in some ways. A flower that the Imperial Household and the Duke’s household used as their household crest on the identical time and engaged in a struggle of nerves.

“Properly, it’s good to get on His Majesty’s nerves, however…”

As Iellie swallowed a sigh and murmured, Zachary, who was gazing at her, smiled brightly.

“Moderately than that, Len, when are you going to suit your marriage ceremony costume? I heard that Mom-in-law is coming.”

“Ah, sure. Mom will arrive tomorrow or so… so we determined to do the ultimate becoming collectively.”

The marriage preparations have been usually assisted by the mom of the bride. Nonetheless, Iellie had to this point taken care of her marriage ceremony preparations alone. Zachary had requested her dad and mom to return early, however she refused.

“Even when it’s not the case, for my dad and mom to obtain a brand new territory within the north… In a means, it’s a privilege.”

“You’re the Duchess of Hessenweiz. It’s solely pure that my father-in-law and mother-in-law are handled like this.”

“Nonetheless, Zachary, the extra members of the family we’re, the stricter these points needs to be.”

When Iellie shook her head in an enormous means, Zachary stared at her, who had a decided face.

“It’s true that I’m bringing my dad and mom to the north for his or her security, however I don’t wish to obtain any extra particular therapy than that.”

As well as, the phrase that the brand new Duchess of Hessenweitz could be swayed by her maternal kin was additionally a no brainer.

“Apart from, we’ve already skilled the uncomfortable instance from Countess Laurent, proper?”

“Len.”

“It’s sufficient simply to present them a manor. So, I can go forward with this marriage ceremony alone.”

Thus, Iellie’s dad and mom have been solely allowed to attend their daughter’s marriage ceremony as honored friends. Recalling what occurred then, he abruptly regarded down at Iellie’s face as she was smiling confidently.

“Don’t fear, the marriage will go with out a hitch.”

“Sure, I belief you.”

With that sort reply, a nook of her chest tickled as if rubbed with a feather. Zachary requested a query.

“So, father-in-law and mother-in-law are coming tomorrow?”

“Sure. They mentioned they might arrive early within the morning.”

As soon as the costume was fitted, all preparations for the marriage could be accomplished. Moreover, the preparations for the reception with the friends have been all excellent.

Iellie glanced out of the window at a look. The Asha tree, with branches filled with buds simply earlier than bursting, was swaying within the spring breeze.

Wanting on the scene, she smiled fortunately.

‘…I didn’t know I’d develop into a spring bride.’

After a couple of days, the Asha flowers would bloom totally. Iellie requested, soaked in mild emotions.

“Zachary, do you bear in mind?”

“What?”

“After we went to the Asha pageant collectively.”

Zachary nodded his head. It was once they had simply met. He skilled a rampage on the pageant with Iellie in entrance of him. Even so, his anger subsided straight away at her voice.

“Even then, Asha flowers have been in full bloom like this.”

He gazed at Iellie’s again, who was wanting up on the window, resting her chin. Immediately remembered his childhood, he couldn’t imagine every part on the planet and sharpened himself, but she shortly closed the space.

‘Nonetheless, I used to be in a position to change after assembly her.’

He smiled fortunately as he thought so. In the meantime, Iellie glanced again at Zachary and whispered softly

“At the moment, we determined to bop collectively on the Asha Competition once we grew to become adults.”

“It was.”

He remembered it, too.

At the moment, they weren’t but of age. That was why they promised to bop once they got here of age. Iellie, who was agonizing over her ideas, gently closed her eyes and opened her mouth.

“This 12 months’s Asha pageant overlaps with the marriage, so it’s a bit totally different. Perhaps subsequent 12 months?”

“Sure, then we will certainly dance collectively.”

The 2 of them intertwined their fingers and giggled like kids. Heat unfold from the depths of their coronary heart.

And the subsequent day, Viscount Blanchett and his spouse arrived at Duke Hessenweitz’s fort. Iellie was very excited.

“Mother…!”

“Len!”

When she ran like a baby and burrowed into the Viscountess’ arm, the Viscount pouted.

“Did you not miss dad?”

“I missed dad, too!”

As she replied with fun, the Viscountess nagged at her as she pinched Iellie’s cheek.

“Do you come right down to the Duke’s fort straight away with out stopping by your own home?”

“I, I’m sorry. That’s as a result of Zachary’s matter was so pressing…”

“It’s no use making an attempt to lift a daughter that solely sends a letter and comes down alone!”

Zachary hesitantly approached the household, who shared their pleasure. He licked his dry lips earlier than slowly opening his mouth.

“I’m sorry, I gave Iellie a tough time…”

He politely bowed his head. Because the Viscount couple, embracing Iellie, glanced at him with ferocious eyes, Zachary felt a chilly sweat run down his again.

The Viscountess mentioned sharply.

“If this occurs once more sooner or later.”

Saying so, Viscount Blanchett and his spouse stared at him with a gaze that left no goodwill left earlier than she completed her phrases.

“This time, we are going to divorce Iellie from the Duke.”

“…Sure, I’m reflecting on myself.”

Even with ten mouths, he deserved to say nothing. Seeing Zachary chewed his lips, the Viscount ultimately sighed.

“However properly.”

“…Sure?”

“To assume that the previous Duke handed away… the Duke has suffered quite a bit as properly.”

The apprehensive voice stirred his coronary heart. Why have been these households so candy and heat? Oddly sufficient, his eyes felt moist, so Zachary bit his lips.

The Viscountess uttered her phrases.

“You could have had a tough time?”

“No…no.”

“You misplaced your father, there’s no means it wouldn’t be tough.”

The 2 {couples} nodded aspect by aspect. With their eyebrows barely furrowed, the Viscountess affectionately opened her mouth.

“I can perceive why our Len went to the Duke straight away.”

When Zachary was silent, not understanding what to say, the Viscountess sternly adopted her phrases.

“Nonetheless, sooner or later, you possibly can’t make Len cry once more.”

“…Mother.”

“I imply, due to how unhappy she was, she had misplaced weight. Have you learnt that?”

“Mother!”

Oh, she would die of disgrace! Iellie’s face flushed pink, and she or he tugged on the Viscountess.

“We made up! It’s been a very long time since we reconciled—!?”

“Why not! I nonetheless have one thing to say!”

“Ahh, moom…! Please!”

“Have you learnt how upset mother was since you stayed locked up in your room at the moment!?”

The mom and daughter have been arguing with a father, who wore a pathetic face. It was the best household Zachary had all the time hoped for. How might they be so cute?

He laughed with out realizing it.

The marriage costume was fitted, and at last, the physique measurements have been adjusted. Zachary was interested by Iellie’s marriage ceremony costume, nevertheless it was often well mannered for the husband to see the spouse’s costume on the day of the marriage.

“You could by no means change your measurement, okay?”

Mrs. Transel opened her mouth sternly. That expression was so decided that she froze barely.

“Sure, I’ll.”

“You could promise. No extra snacking at night time.”

“Sure.”

Iellie grew to become a bit sullen. The cookies she ate at night time have been scrumptious. Abruptly, the pleasures of her life have been disappearing like this…

“Good.”

Mrs. Transel, who was carrying the tape measure and needle, nodded her head satisfyingly earlier than she added softly.

“Maybe the Duchess would be the most stunning bride within the Empire on her marriage ceremony day.”

“Thanks.”

She smiled brightly.

Mrs. Transel, with a closing smile, went out of the room. Iellie, who had modified her garments, clung to her mom’s lap. Her pale inexperienced eyes have been shining brightly.

“Mother, once I was carrying the marriage costume earlier… how was it? Was it fairly?”

“Properly, it was price .”

When the Viscountess answered in a playful means, Iellie turned severe and requested once more.

“Then, will Zachary assume it’s fairly, too?”

“Hmm…”

The Viscountess rolled her eyes. After that, she responded jokingly, pinching her daughter’s delicate cheek.

“To be sincere, I believe the duke would say you look fairly even for those who’re solely carrying a jacket.”

“Ah, actually. That’s not true.”

Whilst she mentioned that, a blush ran throughout her daughter’s cheeks. The Viscountess requested as she checked out her daughter blankly.

“Len. Do you just like the Duke that a lot?”

“….”

Iellie, who rubbed her flushed cheek, couldn’t bear to reply the query. Nonetheless, the Viscountess instantly acknowledged how honest she was with Zachary. In any case, she was dyed pink all the way in which behind her ears.

“…Your face seems to be like a well-ripe tomato.”

Stated her mom with a sigh as Iellie tried to keep away from her gaze. The Viscountess hugged her daughter.

The power within the arms that hugged her was tense. The mom and daughter shared a deep embrace as they felt one another’s physique warmth.

And the day earlier than the marriage. Iellie tossed and turned barely as she lay on her mattress. Surprisingly, she couldn’t sleep.

‘…How does Zachary really feel now?’

In the dead of night, she blinked her eyes. Even for the sake of her skincare, she has been informed to go to mattress early. Nonetheless, her coronary heart beats so quick that she couldn’t sleep in any respect.

Iellie pressured her eyes shut.

‘Cease considering nonsense, Len. You really want to sleep now.’

However then.

Knock, knock.

“Mother?”

“You’ll be able to’t sleep?”

Standing past the door was the Viscountess. Her mom shrugged her shoulders and opened her mouth.

“Properly, that’s comprehensible.”

“Is it price it?”

“It’s the day earlier than the marriage. Isn’t it regular to be concerned?”

Having mentioned that, the Viscountess. She patted her daughter’s hair gently and opened her mouth.

“Come to think about it, when did our daughter develop up a lot that she was even having a marriage…”

Iellie, who was nonetheless wanting on the Biscountess, made a tragic face. She hurriedly opened the door.

“Ah, mother. Come inside first.”

The 2 mom and daughter sat aspect by aspect on the mattress. As if she had gone again to her childhood, her mom hugged her by the shoulder and patted her. Iellie let loose a brief breath as she leaned her head towards her mom’s delicate arms.

“Was there something tough whereas making ready for this marriage ceremony?”

“Yeah, it was nice. The funds was beneficiant, and the individuals of the Duchy additionally helped quite a bit.”

“Nonetheless, it might have been higher if mom might have helped. Wouldn’t it have been tough for the Duke to assist?”

Because the Viscountess checked out her with a pitiful face, Iellie smiled as she lifted her gaze.

“I’m okay. Zachary was additionally busy in his personal means.”

“Properly, there’s… though it hasn’t been lengthy for the reason that duke inherited the title.”
