The Kind Older Sister Is No More

“I’ll apologize instead for Sir Gertin’s rudeness… Please forgive me.”

“It is not something that your ladyship should apologize for.”

“But….”

As Noel struck her off coldly, Riel nodded with a grim face and moved on with her mother. When her father glanced at the employees who had gathered around there, they left pretending they hadn’t seen anything.

“I didn’t know you were such an absent-minded person.”

When her father spoke in a cold tone to Boris, he bowed his head. He looked at Boris with pathetic eyes, followed by Noel.

“I know that the Grand Duke of Kristen is a family that boasts a long history and dignity.”

“I’m sorry for making such a fuss in your house, Count Chase. But, even though I sent a letter to her ladyship Irene, somehow, I didn’t get a reply, so I came here in person.”

Amazed, Boris turned to him at the word “Grand Duke Kristen” from her father’s mouth. Irene also had a puzzled face. A letter. She herself had never received such a thing.

Her father coughed heavily at Noel’s words. Intuitively, Irene could see that her father had snatched Noel’s letter along the way.

Irene looked at her father with a confused look. No way he would do that. Somehow, these days, she thought that the maids

seemed to be more aware of her.

“That’s fine. I have something to show to the Count. Please come here, your ladyship.”

Noel reached out to Irene. Boris and her father also looked back at her. Soon Boris snorted. It was because of his confidence that Irene would not come as he called. Boris exclaimed eloquently.

“Irene! Go back to your room! The rest of us are going to have a discussion together!”

And then he looked at Noel with a confident face.

‘Irene never defied my words.’ – Boris thought.

Except when it comes to asking for a relationship, she listened to whatever he wanted. Therefore, he was confident this time. He’s sure she’ll listen to him, not the Grand Duke Noel Kristen.

‘Although I was a little surprised.’

If he had been the ‘ordinary’ Grand Duke Kristen, he would not have prayed, but he was a Grand Duke Kristen whose future was unclear. The guy may not have inherited the position, but he had no reason to be scared.

What’s more, if he has Irene in his hand, it is like getting this Countess of Chase.

‘Although I was shaken by Riel for a while.’

Small and delicate things are tempting, so what kind of man wouldn’t fall for it? He’d just been swayed by his instincts for a while. He believed that if he explained it well enough, Irene would understand.

However, the situation that soon took place was not what he expected.

“Irene!”

As Irene descended the stairs and headed to Noel, Boris screamed horrifiedly. Her father, too, looked surprised because he didn’t know Irene would make such a choice. He would, too. There was nothing good about her getting in between. Rather, only uncomfortable situations will persist.

Nevertheless, she walked in herself. Looking at only one man named Noel Kristen. Suddenly, it looked a little different from the Irene he knew.

“Sorry, Grand Duke. I should have managed the delivered letters a little more carefully.”

“That’s fine.”

Noel gently smiled at Irene’s apology and relieved her. Boris looked at Irene, who stood beside Noel, with a confused gaze. His eyes trembled as if they could not believe it.

“The reason I came here with this excuse is to inform the Countess of this .”

As Noel glanced up, his assistant, who was standing far behind, approached.

Irene and her father, who did not know about his presence because he was out of sight, looked surprised. He handed the envelopes to the Count and Irene, then stepped back.

“This.”

“Please take a look.”

At Noel’s words, father and Irene checked the contents. Boris rolled his eyes with anxiety as if he couldn’t get anything on his own.

Inside was quite a large amount of documents. But it was only one thing that they pointed to.

It was a statement and a certificate in which Boris, the second son of the Gertin family, borrowed the name and family of his fiancé, Irene Chase, and drew debt from place to place.

“Now this, what?!”

Her father, whose hands were squeezing and crumpling the papers , looked at Boris with an furious face. Irene couldn’t take her eyes off the papers. This is because the day he borrowed his first debt, written in the statement, was the day he and she held their engagement ceremony.

Everything was premeditated. He approached Irene because of her background since the beginning.

But why? If it had been before, she would have felt betrayed, but now she didn’t feel anything. Oh, she just didn’t love him. Turned out, it was just a short impression.

When her father struck the papers on the floor, Boris hurriedly checked the contents. Before long, his eyes and hands quivered.

“This, this! It’s a manipulation! It’s a lie!”
