When I Quit Being A Wicked Mother-in-law, Everyone Became Obsessed With Me

Chapter 6

Liliana couldn’t take her eyes off the townhouse, with her little lips wide open…

‘Our Liliana is so cute. What should I do with you?!’

…It was because, literally, it was charming.

After a while, Liliana, with her full consciousness, looked up at Anriche, anxiously.

“Is, is this really the townhouse of the Duke of Valois?”

“Well, why would I lie to Liliana?”

Anriche nodded her head coolly.

Liliana then asked a question with her puzzled voice.

“That… it’s not the palace where a Princess lives…?”

After hearing those words, Anriche burst into laughter without knowing it.

The palace where the Princess lives!

Isn’t the imagination of a child too adorable?

“Well, then Liliana should just be the princess of Valois in the future.”

At those mischievous words, Liliana, frightened, shook her head.

“No! What am I…!”

“Liliana, what did I say at the clothing store earlier?”

Anriche asked with strength in her eyes.

Liliana, blinking, replied with a crawling tone after a little while.

“Uh, that… I decided not to say ‘I’m sorry’ or ‘I don’t think this is a bit…’”

“Yes. So why can’t Liliana be the Princess?”

Anriche shrugged her shoulder lightly.

“All the children in the world are the Princes and Princesses of their guardians.”

“Ah…”

“So Liliana is my Princess.”

Instead of an answer, Liliana nodded her head.

The child’s cheeks were now red, like a ripe apple.

Anriche winked her eyes mischievously.

“How can you be so surprised already?”

“Yes?”

“If you look at the Duchy of Valois later, it’s a big deal if you pass out…”

“Pa, pass out?”

When she said in a broken and anxious voice, Liliana’s face became hot and stern.

“The Valois mansion is in the Duchy, and its scale is comparable to that of the Imperial Palace.”

“…What? It’s comparable to the Imperial Palace? How big is it…”

“Well, maybe ten times the townhouse?”

“Hiik.”

Liliana shrugs her shoulders in shock.

She was quite surprised as she wriggled her fingers.

‘Uh, cute! I want to bite you!!’

Effortlessly repressing her desire to wreak havoc on her, Anriche led Liliana to the front door of the townhouse.

“Come on, let’s go inside.”

“Ah, yes!”

Liliana followed Anriche’s steps.

The child’s expression looked the same as that of a general in front of an enemy camp.

Her appearance was so lovable that Anriche couldn’t hide her laughter inside.

“…Liana.”

“Liliana!”

“Yes, yes!”

It was only after Anriche called Liliana several times that the child came to her senses.

Liliana reflexively looked at Anriche’s eyes.

“Well, I’m sorry. My mind is distracted elsewhere…”

“It’s okay. It’s a little dazzling.”

Only after hearing Anriche’s delicate answer, Liliana looked a little relieved.

“Well, actually, that, the street where the clothing store was…”

“You mean the streets of Le Morgan?”

“Yes! When I went to that street, I was surprised that there are all these pretty places in the world.”

Liliana was swaying around with her mouth while her eyes wandered around.

It was a perfect space.

Luxurious wallpaper, mirrored marble floors that are state of art.

The rare art pieces that most nobles would designate as heirlooms were nothing more than ornaments for the Duke of Valois.

‘I will be living here from now on. This is really ridiculous…’

As her heartbeats, Liliana unknowingly put her hands on her chest.

A voice mixed with sighs flowed out.

“By the way, the Valois townhouse is more…”

“You said it was like the palace where the Princess lives.”

“Yes. I thought so before, but now…”

Liliana lifted her head and looked up as if she were possessed by the ornate chandelier hanging from the ceiling.

The colorful lights of the crystal glass decorations dazzled her eyes.

“…It’s like the palace where the fairy Queen lives.”

It used to be a Princess, and now it’s a fairy queen?

Anriche, smiling lightly, noticed a little boy walking in the distance.

Fluttering black hair and violet-colored eyes inherited from Anriche herself.

It was Elliott.

“Oh my God, Elliot.”

Anriche tried to greet Elliott.

Of course, it was a separate matter whether Elliott would greet her back.

“…Mo, mother?”

As soon as Anriche and his gaze met, Elliott reflexively stepped back behind and tried to run away.

Then.

‘Uh?’

The problem was the girl standing next to Anriche.

A girl with her bright blond hair drooping and her light-green eyes open.

The girl dressed in a dark yellow dress was bright like a spring flower.

“…”

Elliott stared at the girl blankly.

It seemed like he had never seen such a pretty child.

Just then, he made eye contact with the girl.

The little girl with her smiley eyes lifted the hem of her dress with her hands and slightly lowered her head.

“Hello, are you Young Master Valois?”

As soon as he heard her voice, Elliott’s face lit up with a new red color.

Elliott stuttered without knowing.

“You, who are you?”

“Nice to meet you, I’m Liliana Aberyt.”

“Liliana… Aberyt?”

Elliott was dazed by Liliana’s answer.

How can she even have a pretty name?

That’s what he was thinking.

“Ahh!”

Quadang!

Elliot hit his bottom on the floor.

He was distracted by staring at Liliana so he stepped on his feet.

“Ah, are you okay?!”

“Oh my God, Elliot! Are you hurt anywhere?!”

The shocking voice of Liliana and Anriche made a duet.

Anriche reached her hand out quickly, trying to help Elliott up.

But just then.

“Young Master Elliot!”

An urgent voice rang.

One of the maids seemed to come in a rush, and she gently wrapped Elliott’s shoulders and raised him from his seat.

“Are you hurt?”

“No, I’m fine.”

It was as if she was Elliott’s mother.

The maid looked back and forth at Elliot, and she turned to Anriche after holding Elliot close to her.

She then bows her head.

“…Greeting, Duchess Valois.”

It was an impeccably polite greeting, but Anriche felt a vague sense of incongruity.

Somehow, it looks like she’s trying to separate Elliott from Anriche deliberately…

“Yes, Meg.”

Meg.

Two years older than Anriche, she was the longest-serving maid chief of the Duke of Valois.

She was also the one who was entirely trusted by Alexei.

‘…Meg’s family itself was said to have had a very deep relationship with the Duke of Valois…’

Since Meg’s father was the butler who worked in the Duke’s mansion, it must have been so.

That’s why she heard that Meg and Alexey were like friends when they were young.

Of course, as they grew up, they naturally distanced themselves from each other.

Elliott, holding on to the hem of Mag’s skirt, looked up at Anriche with guarded eyes.

“It’s a good thing that you didn’t get hurt.”

“…Yes.”

Anriche spoke to him with the softest possible, but Elliott only turned his head away.

Anriche sighed deeply internally.

This isn’t, well, like taming wild kittens.

When will she be able to get closer to him?

Anyway, since Liliana and Elliot are seeing each other for the first time, they should introduce each other.

“Liliana is your Fiancé.”

“My Fiancé?”

Elliott’s eyes grew wide.

Anriche shrugged her shoulder.

“Yes. Didn’t your father tell you before? You have a fiancée.”

“That, yes, though…”

Elliott glanced at Liliana.

Of course, he did.

But being vaguely told that he had a’fiancée’ and actually getting to meet her is different.

‘Besides, I was never told that she is such a pretty girl…’

Elliott couldn’t take his eyes off Liliana.

Anriche smiled.

“So please be nice in the future.”

“…Yes.”

Oh?

Anriche sparkled her eyes.

Elliot, who has always been so sharp to her, responds in such a gentle way…

Heroine effect is the best!

“Shall we go back to the room, Young Master?”

Meg spoke to Elliot.

However, Elliott, who usually followed Meg’s words, shook his head this time.

“No, Meg, go back first.”

“Yes?”

In an unexpected situation, Mag’s eyes narrowed.

At the same time, Elliott sneaked up to Liliana.

With the Young Master suddenly approaching, Liliana looks puzzled.

“Yo-Young Master?”

“You know, I want to know…”

Elliot, looking at Anriche’s face, quickly bowed his head. Then he puts his lip to Liliana’s ear and whispers.

“Did mother get angry with you or anything?”
