Count Gilmus, who was driven out by the Emperor, was overwhelmed with a sense of defeat.

He was humiliated before the Emperor. It was also shameful to him, but the fact that he had been beaten by a young b*tch also made him feel insulted.

Abella Amerigo.

It wasn’t enough to be born on the day of Skellus, and now she was trying to crush the family.

No, was it because she was born on that day?

Count Gilmus’s beard trembled.

Since returning from Amerigo’s home, he had been in anger, unable to eat properly and work.

In order to recover damage quickly, he had to sign a new contract or hold onto the leg of the existing contract owner.

“Father……? You have to eat. I am afraid that something will happen.”

Count Gilmus did not budge at the words of his most beloved son.


It was a horrible reality to wake up to each day, and his body had no way to deal with such a sense of defeat again. Until he came up with something new…..

“Wait.”

Count Gilmus raised his body.

Benjamin, his eldest son, whom he loved the most, opened his eyes.

“Are you going to eat? Are you feeling a little relaxed now?  I’ll choose the day that b*tch goes out…….”

“No, Benjamin, you don’t have to. What’s the most important rule the head of household has to follow that also applies to Abella right now?”

Count Gilmus pulled up his lips meanly.

“According to our Amerigo regulations, if you are over 20, you must be engaged or married.”

That was something Benjamin knew. Benjamin tilted his head as if puzzled.

“But doesn’t Abella have a fiancé right now?”

“What if… if the Duke of Sirius asked for a breakup for some reason?”

“Ah……!”

Sirius wouldn’t turn away from Gilmus. Perhaps.

A week had passed since Count Gilmus visited.

It was strange that Count Gilmus was silent, so she sent a person to him, but he stayed in his mansion and continued his seclusion.

Instead, the social activities of Gilmus’s eldest son, Benjamin, were prominent. Benjamin hadn’t had a banquet for a while.

There were rumors that Benjamin, who lost his wife and had a young son, was looking for a new bride.

“Is it so easy to court a bride?”

Enoch looked at the newspaper and clicked his tongue. Even in his eyes, their way was ridiculous. That was, of course, the same in Abella’s eyes. It was not the time to court for a bride, but rather, time to figure out how to pay their debts.

Strangely, however, Count Gilmus assured that he could somehow make up for the damage, and the lenders who lent money to him delayed Count Gilmus’s debt repayment date.

She was curious about what he would have bet on, but it was not easy to figure out so far.

“…… I don’t know what you’re up to.”

“It’s a private area, so there’s no way to find out.”

Abella nodded her head.

“How about buying one of the creditors?”

“That’s not bad either……. Enoch. How about buying bonds? Can you finance the money from the business in Timur?”

“Sure.”

“Then……”

It was dangerous to buy bonds under Abella’s name or the name of the business. Count Gilmus would run away.

“Hmm… I think we should use a different name.”

It could not be anyone who was exposed to the outside.

Yuri and Enoch. They were both completely exposed to Count Gilmus. It meant that she had to use someone she could trust, but there was no such person around Abella.

Abella laughed and muttered.

“My life’s in vain.”

“What are you talking about all of a sudden?”

“I mean, I cannot entrust this job to anyone.”


“….. You have me, Abella.”

Enoch smiled as he rolled the candy in his mouth.

His red hair added a playful atmosphere to Enoch. Enoch always answered smoothly. Especially with the answers, Abella wanted.

“I am a foreigner. That means……”

“……Are you going to use your nationality?”

Enoch nodded his head.

“It’s easy to get a new status in my hometown.”

“You mean the Clemington Kingdom?”

“Right. Besides, it’s easier if you have a slight connection to the royal family like me.”

Abella knew that Enoch was a distant relative of the royal family. She was using Clemington’s surname, so it was natural.
