Unlike before, grounded dried sweet pumpkin was used for color. Thanks to this, the meringue cookies this time were much more similar to flowers. The pretty shapes and attractive colors had caught everyone’s attention.“What’s the name of this cookie?”“They are called meringue cookies.”“I can’t believe you could make such a wonderful dessert by yourself. I will never forget this honour.”“You’re too much. It’s just a simple snack that was whipped from sugar and eggs.”Molitia then lifted a separate plate and placed it right in front of Raven. The small cookies, which had been arranged on that precise plate sparkled exceptionally.“These belong to the Duke, especially the prettiest ones.”“I’ll eat them well.”Gazing upon her bashful appearance, he tried to conceal his apparent feelings. If it wasn’t for those two knights, he might have swept her up and straight away carried her to the bedroom.Molitia’s lovely smile lingered endlessly in his head. When he thought of how his two knights had seen the exact same smile, his lips straightened to a vertical line. Even though he had a smile around his mouth during lunch, he thought that it was much more pleasant then, rather than now.‘I want to monopolize this taste all by myself.’He popped some of the cookies into his mouth while thinking of the dirty thoughts that he could only perform in his mind. The sweetness had melted in his mouth, which soothed him slightly.<div></div>“This is great. The sweet taste melts completely in my mouth.”“Delicious!”“I’m glad you like them.”It was at that precise moment, when Molitia had flashed her bright smile towards the two. Raven immediately stood from his seat after tossing the last piece of cookie into his mouth.<div></div>“Raven?”For a moment, Molitia had forgotten that the knights were still watching them as her eyes went wide-opened.“If you’re finished, why don’t you just leave?”“What? But, My Lord.”“Time to get off work.”“What?”“I’ve been working since the morning. So, by now, it should be the right time to get off work.”“But, the meeting…”<div></div>“Is there any agenda that can’t wait until tomorrow?”“No, sir.”Terrance tilted his head slightly. He couldn’t discern the problem, but it seemed like his Lord was in a foul mood. At times like this, it was better to actualize each and every one of his Lord’s commands.“I’ll leave you guys alone, then.”“Raven? Wait…”When he carefully hugged her, Molitia’s face flushed in an instant. It was right in front of other people, not just in the presence of those two knights. Shame had engulfed her completely.“Other people are watching…!”“ ‘Other people’. They are the members of the Duchy whom my wife had acknowledged.”<div></div>“But…”“Didn’t you learn that it’s good for the household when their couple is doing very well?”Is that really it? He kissed Molitia’s mumbling cheek in a very smooth manner as he quickly left the dining hall with Molitia still in his grasp.Lyndon and Terrance were the ones left behind for a long time—shocked by the events that had transpired in the dining hall.<div></div>The sudden appearance of the couple had startled Pillen and Lili, who were still organizing the bedroom in place. Without further ado, they avoided them by hurriedly ran out of the bedroom.How long has it just been? The Duchess’s face was completely red. Pillen trembled at the sight of the firmly closed bedroom door as she peered with her anxious eyes.It was great for them to have a healthy relationship. The distant relationship between a married couple could easily create a strain for their servants. All things considered, this was definitely not a bad situation.Well, that is obvious…“Whoo.”“What’s wrong?”Feeling curious, Lili took a peek at Pillen.“No, nothing.”“Oh, we just cleaned it up and the two of them went in together, right? If they went in with each other, I’m pretty sure that they won’t come out until the sun is up again.”Lili flushed slightly while speaking as she seemed to be quite envious of their relationship. Pillen then gave her a feeble smile.“It’s a good thing that the two of them are getting along well.”She knew that but still, Pillen’s gaze had barely left the bedroom.<div></div>
