What's wrong with a lord daddy who just wants to draw cards?

Chapter 66-65- Catherine’s Resentment
Morey seemed to have arranged a secretary position for Mei, specifically to help him organize the profit and loss situation of the tavern and market reports. Mei also did all the chores that he usually had no time to do due to training and study.

I have to say that Morey knows how to choose.

The position of secretary requires a lot of detailed work, which can best improve a person's ability, while also reducing one's own burden and saving time.

As an efficiency supremacist, Domi is quite positive about this approach.

Now that Mei has been arranged, it's time for him to go back to the villa to rest.

After the most difficult life-and-death battle, and running around day and night, if the breathing method hadn't continued to support him, I'm afraid he would have collapsed on the road from exhaustion in the next second...

Now he just wants to go to the soft big bed and sleep for two days.

I returned to the villa at about ten o'clock in the morning. I didn't bother to eat. I took a shower, changed my pajamas, lay down, closed my eyes, and left peacefully...

He slept so well that he didn't wake up until noon the next day, still hungry.

The maid thoughtfully brought the meals to his bed, which was very convenient.

He asked while stuffing things into his mouth like a glutton:
"By the way Louise, I remember what you told me yesterday. I was too tired at the time. Can you please repeat it?"

Louise put her hands on her lower abdomen, stood upright, and said honestly and respectfully:

"Okay, I sent you a letter the day before yesterday, asking you to return to the castle yesterday. I reminded you, but your condition yesterday didn't seem to be very good..."

Domi is well-known in the maid circle for her approachability and love of appreciating girls (from young girls to young women).

It is precisely because of this kind of personality and hobbies that no maid thinks that Domi will abuse or punish them. Unless they are very wrong, Domi will just stick with them and then correct their mistakes gently, so there is no need to avoid scolding. And lie.

If Duomi dumped the blame on her without saying a word and unreasonably, then she would have to come up with a separate explanation, and doing so would inevitably prevent the message from being conveyed completely and accurately.

This is where personal charm lies, even if it is not very serious.

"So I overslept?"

"If I remember the date correctly, you did miss it."

However, Domi still ate and drank as usual, and even took a nap. In his words, he was already late anyway, so he might as well be more thorough and go back after dinner~ and he would be less disciplined by Carlos.

He thought with his toes and knew what Carlos was going to say to him, such as time management, and the most basic integrity between people is to abide by agreements and so on.

My ears are calloused.

"Then let's do it Louise, help me prepare the carriage and ceremony first, and then call me after dinner~"

"As ordered."

……

It lasted until six o'clock in the evening. Duomi had already finished dinner in the villa, changed into daily clothes, took a suitcase with a black cloak of Fomalhaut, and got on the carriage home.

The outskirts of the city were not far from his family's castle. With the speed of the carriage and the openness of the road, it could be reached in an hour and a half.

At 07:30 at night, there are still many rooms in the castle with lights on, so it won't be a bother to come back now.

Entering the hall, except for a few missing maids who sweetly said "Welcome home, Master~~", everything else was the same as before.

But it's quite unpleasant. How should I put it? There must be gains in everything.

Just when he wanted to go back to his room and spend the day peacefully, a figure walked in from the side room. Duomi took a closer look and saw that it was Catherine!

She should be making a small set of beauty treatments at this time!Why are you still here in uniform?
Did those guys even record what they were doing in the villa and report it to Carlos?

Seeing Domi's guilty look, Catherine was immediately furious. She went up and looked down with a cold face: "Domi, welcome home, come with me to see the master."

Haha, what a cold welcome home.

The sound of high heels hitting the floor was particularly clear.

Duomi followed Catherine and asked cautiously:
"Catherine, are you waiting for me?"

"Well, the master assigned me to wait here."

"Wait a long time?"

"..."

She was silent for a long time before she said quietly: "Yes, from yesterday morning until now, apart from sleeping and working, I have to wait there for you whenever I have free time."

That tone was like a tempered little girl complaining in front of her boyfriend. Duomi's heart felt like being scratched by a cat's claws, not to mention how itchy it was. It was so cute. I thought...

"I'm really sorry, but you know, Ka...it's really scary when my father gets angry. I'm actually not afraid. I'm just worried that his blood pressure will rise and he'll get sick."

But these reasons are all so pale.

"Okay, Catherine, I'm sorry for you. I'll make it up to you sometime."

"...Hey, forget it, I'm not really blaming you."

Silence fell between the two of them again. As they walked, they arrived at the place before they knew it.

"Domi, you have to face what you have to face after all. Avoiding can't solve the problem. Hey... I'm leaving first. If you need anything, don't come to me."

This was the first time he had seen Catherine sighing so many times in a row. It seemed that she was really exhausted when she was acting as a "watching stone" at the door.

"When something good comes out of the card draw, let's make it up to her." Domi thought, then forced himself to calm down and knocked on the door of Carlos' office.

"Come in."

crunch~~
"Father, I'm back."

I saw Carlos approving documents while saying without raising his head: "You still know how to come back?"

"Uh... didn't you ask me to come back~"

He put down his pen, asked Duomi to sit in front of him, and started the training mode:

"I understand that you are tired and want to rest for a while, but what kind of trouble are you going to make if you linger until night?"

"I always tell you three brothers that the most basic integrity between people is to abide by the agreement and learn time management..."

Soon, half an hour passed.

Carlos himself felt a little thirsty after talking, so he picked up the cup next to him and drank the health water in it.

"Getting back to the subject, I called you back temporarily this time. The main reason is to arrange another talent testing ceremony for you. I want to test your talent again."

"My magical talent?"

Duomi was stunned: "I'm just a junior talent in the shadow system. Is there anything else I can test?"

"Don't pretend to be stupid. Can a junior shadow talent use powerful necromancy and summoning magic? Are you still a super genius? Don't worry, I will test it for you personally this time. The new results come out, except for you and me. No one will know..."
