Haunted Duke’s Daughter

Six.

Such a life lasted a week. I learned a lot from Sakura. No matter, I can’t teach you everything in a week or so. I just can’t be absent from school any more, that’s all. In the future, I will be teaching in a little free time, such as when I wake up and before bed.

Lilia hasn’t slept through a school uniform in a long time. It’s a white sailor outfit.

– I’ve been wondering, how long have these clothes been around?

“If you’re asking about history, it’s a tradition that lasts over a hundred years.”

– Yeah…… I figured you had something besides me……

Lilia frowned at Sakura’s words. It’s as if there’s been a sarcastic presence in the past. But certainly, I can’t say for sure that there hasn’t been such a presence in the past.

Lilia can’t prove the existence of Sakura.

After dressing, Sakura headed to the dining room for breakfast.

The dining room already had the whole family. Everyone’s gaze turns to Lilia and everyone’s eyes are rounded that Lilia is in uniform. Lilia took her seat, feeling just a little more comfortable with the reaction.

“Lilia. Are you going to school?

That’s what my father asked me. Lilia nods and answers.

“Yes. I’m heading to the dorm today. Thank you for your concern.”

When Lilia said that and bowed her head, my father opened his mouth to a pompous dusk. Though I was so surprised, I realized that Sakura was having a sneaky laugh and shook it small.

“But so suddenly, there’s a carriage arrangement…”

“Don’t worry. I can’t bother your father’s hand, so I left it here. It was Alisa and the others who actually moved.”

“Oh well…… But you know what… No, I don’t mind…”

Father who drops his shoulders and depresses. It’s not majestic or anything that happened. Though wondering if he was like this, I decided not to think about it because breakfast was arranged at the table.

“Well, let’s have it. Before that…… Cross! Come on, put that paperwork down!

I accidentally clap my neck at my father’s anger. Next door, a little further away, but when I looked at my brother, I’d been trying to look at some paperwork and read it.

“Cross!”

My father’s rage again. When his brother glanced at his father, he smashed his tongue and kept the documents at hand. I thought my father would react to the tongue beating, but apparently they didn’t ask me that. Lilia feels like someone else is making a scene in the morning.

“Well…… Then let’s have it.”

Finishing her pre-meal prayers, Lilia took the bread in front of her.

Sakura is in a very good mood during breakfast. You know what Lilia is listening to, but she always sings something like a nose song. I’ve never paid attention to the matter because it doesn’t mean I’m out of pitch, it’s not ear damage. I’ve just heard why you’re in such a good mood.

– Delicious dinner.

It was a very short answer, but that’s why it’s easy to understand. Sakura, who shares her senses with Lilia, seems to feel happy too when Lilia is eating something delicious.

It happened when I was blurry remembering the conversation at that time.

“Cross! Come on!

The anger of my father again. It’s loud people, I look at my brother thinking. My brother had also taken the paperwork and wrinkled it between his brows.

“How many times can I tell you not to work during a meal!

“Word, Father. This is something that needs to be cleaned up as soon as possible. If this document is correct, then that person would have misused our money. We should put food behind us.”

“It’s not going to be a problem at mealtime.”

“That’s sweet, Father. It’s something that leads to fraud, so we should get rid of it as soon as possible.”

Even to show off.

In my brother’s last words, my father made a tannic surface. Apparently, my father and brother have differences of opinion.

– Well, it’s none of my business.

– Lilia. You’re not stopping me?

– Oh. Should I stop it? If you say so, I’ll try.

That’s what I asked, but I know the answer to Sakura. If Sakura decides that we should stop here, she will advise Lilia that we should stop before she asks.

– I won’t tell you. ‘Cause anyway, a woman would tell you not to talk or anything.

– I guess. I can easily imagine.

– Yeah. Let’s get ready for school. Study a little when you’re ready.

– Yes, sir.

Lilia glances at her father and brother before shifting her gaze to her mother. When my mother noticed that gaze, she snorted bitterly at me for guessing Lilia’s thoughts. With her head down small to that mother, Lilia takes a seat. My father and brother in a tongue fight don’t realize that.

“Sister. I’m coming, too.”

My brother, Theo, grabbed Lilia’s sleeve with a nappy. Lilia put on a smile as soon as she was noticed. I think my laughter has improved over the past week.

“Fine. Shall we go?”

“Yes.”

Theo also took a seat and as he tried to get to the door, the documents placed on the table caught his eye.

– Oh… It’s not a pre-argument issue.

It’s a document that says what you spent on and what kind of income you had. Although not separated by item, the contents are quite complex. This is like telling me to make a miscalculation.

In fact, both the person who made this paperwork and the brother who confirmed it are wrong.

Lilia leaked a small exhale when she had no choice, opening her mouth.

“Brother.”

“What. Don’t let the woman out.”

I suddenly frown at things. My father was also trying to open his mouth because he seemed uncomfortable with his brother’s words, so Lilia decided to say before she got into the argument and make a run for it.

“I’m in a hurry, too, so just one thing. Here, here, here. Wrong calculation.”

“Say what…”

My brother drops his gaze on the papers. He silenced for a while, and opened his eyes in amazement.

“Excuse me, then.”

Lilia says so and bows her head, she heads to the dining room door. I was not interested in arguing with my father and brother at the earliest, so I took Theo and left the room intact.
