Wife Meeting (Part 2)

Chapter 97

"....."

"..... " Me and Liz look at each other wordlessly.....

".....OK?"

"OK"

I responded reflexively, Liz swiftly sat down in the seat next to me. Then the cook brought out the food. I just kind of watch it and wonder.

"The two of you are in tandem. I'm quite jealous."

..... Um, can you stop saying that with your usual pretty smile on your face?　The difference between the two gives me chills.

--Women, scary.

　But what is the relationship between Charlotte and Liz anyway? Liz, Sophie and Emily are related by the business(?). They seemed to know each other even if the other party is a commoner, Liz also did not exercise any troublesome noble-isms, she accepted both of them and Katherine.

　--She's a good girl.

"You're right, so I don't think there's any problem with Liz being a concubine, right?"

"Fu~ha!?"

Now, Charlotte, I know that you can read my mind, and you probably know that I don't dislike Liz, but that doesn't necessarily mean that you understand her feelings too.....

"Hah....."

　Hey, you just stumped and sighed, didn't you?

Thinking of that, though she didn't say it out loud, Charlotte looked at me with her big emerald eyes.

"now that I can grasp Desmond-sama's thoughts, I've been thinking about something".

"O-oh....."

　--Wha, what is it.....?

Pretending to eat in peace, I brace myself with trepidation.

"Desmond-sama is even nicer than I thought he would be."

"O-Oh, thank you.....?"

"And Equally as timid."

"....."

"Yet he's so greedy, that he wants to hold any girl he likes."

"Uh-umm....."

I doubt I'll ever be able to retain my MP mental points. However, apart from making me shudder. It's incredible that we can continue to eat with such grace and control during this time.

"Even so, Desmond-sama does try to take good care of the person he has embraced. But of course, he would not do it to someone who didn't want to. That's why-I, I want you to love me the most, but-"

--Hmmm....I'm not sure what type of expression....what was it....what word should I add 'dere' to?

"――Aham,  excuse me. It's tsun....."

Oh so this girl is Tsun. I suspectedit before, but

Awesome!

"Geez. Please stop....."

I'd normally be relieved to see such a cute twenty-nine-year-old, but such leisure time doesn't exist now.

"So, to return to my point, what I want to say is -, as a lord who knows about sensuality,  please teach the ladies of your reign how to be gorgeous and beautiful, so they can truly be themselves. Desmond-sama, I said you may do as you please, didn't I?"

"Uh, yes, You did say that....."

But it seems to me that the meaning is changed, and not slightly.....

"Therefore!"

"A-ah"

Charlotte chan's abrupt voice startled me a little.  Of course,  I was cautious not to show it on the surface, but Liz next to me seemed to sense it, so I tried to be as discreet as possible so she wouldn't how anxious I am.

"As I thought, Liz is keeping her eyes on Desmond-sama very intently....."

"Hmm?　What did you say?"

"No, it's nothing."

　After saying that, Charlotte straightened her posture.

"therefore, I'd like to act in role that can fulfilled Desmond-sama's wishes. Desmond-sama won't do anything on his own unless he is forced to do so. But luckily, now that I have become able to understand Desmond-sama's thoughts-- Fufu, oh my, she is one too, isn't she? This makes my heart flutter."

　Wait! What have you seen in my memory!

B-but...that means...without even knowing it, She'll offer me the girl who is madly in love with me...

I, for a moment, thought of Charlotte as the one who spun the spider web.  An arachnid monster that now licking its tongue.

"What's with that vision just now?"

"Hm hm, nothing"

"I'll punish you later..... Oh, today is the day Sophie will have Desmond-sama all to herself, so it will be tomorrow..... fufufu...on the bed..... No, it doesn't have to be the bed..."

"p-please be gentle....."

"If you asked that nicely..."

The conversation is starting to become strange..... I know that I'm a greedy person, but I still want to take care of the girl I like, as well as their feelings, I don't want to abuse my authority..... It's just that I can't keep my hands on myself...

--What?　I'm about to cry myself to sleep tonight, aren't I?

"Fufufu, yes, you are the worst."

Ugh, if Charlotte says that I'm not going to be recovered, aren't I?

　And.

"It's all right"

When I heard that in my mind, her right hand was placed on my lap. She's going to pretend to take a little break, apparently. I felt her emotions seeping into me from the thigh on which her palm was resting.

"It's true Desmond-sama is that kind of a person inside. He is such a person that does not detest Sophie who is making advances, but he is always having his eyes on me..... you have tried to take me no matter what ..... and now you have impregnated me, and your child....."

　Charlotte glanced down at her womb, and I looked at it as well.

　Charlotte rubbed my thigh.....

I'm not sure what was going on, but Charlotte's thoughts seemed to be flooding into me. The pounding heartbeat in my chest seems like it belongs to her, causing my cheeks to color with the combined heartbeats.

But then, I understood what she was trying to say.

"Desmond-sama is fine the way he is. I'm just saying that I want to act in place of you, who is unable to take the first move. --Pity I can't get more involved with Desmond-sama at this time."

Ummm...umm..... Is it all okay if I'm feeling happy....but.....

-- um.....but this is.....so to speak.....

"I want to build a harem for you Desmond-sama."

　A declaration!

Oh, my goodness.....

"Aren't you happy?"

"I'm happy, But? that's, that's too much!"

"What are you talking about? Desmond-sama is the one who is going to do all the hard parts. I'm simply giving you a final push. That's what I'm aiming for."

　Aim?　Did you just say "aim"!?

"First of all, it will be women whom Desmond-sama has already won over. The women who are anxiously waiting for Desmond-sama to win their hearts and their bodies."

"I wonder if there are really such women....."

"That is why you are such a slob."

"Ugh.....no matter how dearest my wife is, there are limits and what things you can say don't you think?....."

"You said it yourself that you are such a lousy lord. Nevertheless, everyone around you just looks up to you, really, you are a devious and disappointing person."

Kuuuu... I guess this is where I get angry, but if she can convey her love even with an astonishing look like this...

"I'm glad I've come to understand Desmond-sama's heart. Because now I can be useful to Desmond-sama....."

――Ah, she's rubbing my thigh--I'm can't get angry if her loving thoughts keep flowing directly into our connected hearts like this, I even want her to bully me more.

"Then I'll retract it."

"Hey, Charlotte!"

On that note...

"pfft"

"Haha....."

We both end up laughing.

Although I was the lowest rank, and if I had not been in social circles, I would have been nothing more than a fake noble, I was eating with a calm demeanor on the surface while simultaneously flirting in my mind. Still, it was charming that the corners of our mouths seemed to loosen.

"Um, what are you two doing?"

*stare*

　Scary eyes are looking at me from the right. 

　Ah, huh...? Did it show on my face?　But even if I was showing it a bit, I don't think someone can see through Charlotte's act......

"What makes you think that?"

　Charlotte asked Liz.

"It's just that.....I thought that the two of you are having some sort of conversation. --Hm, yes, it's very unlikely. I also don't thing of any logical reason behind it. I'd appreciate it if you could dismiss what I just said."

　The monocle on her glints.

Well, she's not wrong, I feel that a woman's intuition surpasses rational reasoning so that she can detect something unusual......I see, that's why people get caught having affairs.....I need to be careful.....

　But It's too late if my heart is already linked!

Still, that's something I should be terrified of, but I think I'd rather show it to Charlotte since I believe I'm innocent. And it appears to me that Charlotte is the only one capable of doing that.....

--I wonder if I'm a bit of an exhibitionist.

"Oh, there is such a thing as an exhibitionist, I see....."

Stop it! I won't show Charlotte to anyone!

"Fufu, I know"

――I feel Relief, just for a moment.

Then Liz said, "I still have an odd feeling about this..."

　--The woman's intuition, scary.

I mean, she might notice if someone starts flirting in front of her while leaving her out.....

And then, to add to our current mood...

"Mom, I think we have a new rival. As I thought, Liz is....."

"Hey, Emily, stop....."

"If you say so, then I may be considered a rival too since I already――"

　*stare*!

　T-the glare that Liz made at Katherine is so scary.....that also made the mother-daughter pair shut up. Liz's Eye has to be R15 rated.

I see, so I'm flanked on the left by R18 and on the right by R15.....

　--*shrudder*!

Then.

"――Fufu."

And then Lady Charlotte giggled.

*glare*

Though a little softer than Katherine one, it is still not a light glare - it's a fine line that I cannot tell clearly, The reminds me that Liz is also a daughter of a noble family.

The lawful wife of the lord of <Aldora>, who is also the second daughter of Terrace, and the parliamentary secretary, who is also the fourth daughter of Bergamot.....

--Ah, if we overstep this, there will be a war. Sophie's situation seems adorable compared to this.

　Stop it, please. Seriously, you two, stop! Above all when I'm between you two! My chicken heart will burn to a crisp. --No, perhaps not even a speck of dust will remain?

　I never thought that even as a lord I would find myself in a situation like this, it's like a pressure interview. --I mean, where the hell are you, old man Randolph!　Your favorite scene is here!　Isn't it time for the "Gray Hound" to come out now!?　You've been so excited and rushing around lately. You never really took care of me in the first place and now you've gone and made it worse!　Get to work, chief butler!　I'm in big trouble right now!

"Don't worry, Desmond-sama, nothing bad will happen to you."

　The lord's wife said in her mind.

"Liz, will you join me in my room later?"

"――――――"

"....."

Liz glanced over at me, who had become utterly stiffened.

--Oh, you know that we're always together during the night, right? So, somehow you care more about my opinion than Charlotte's?

　What, why.....?

"Don't worry, Desmond-sama will spend the night seeding Sophie."

　*stare*!

And Liz looked at him, her eyes filled with more intensity. You see, she's not really glaring.....It's just that she's kind of emotional, and her eyes are starting to strain.

--Scary!

"I'm terribly sorry to hear that then."

"..... Why would I feel sorry about that?"

"Well?　Why don't you just ask yourself?"

"....."

"....."

　――As I said! not when I'm between you two! Please stop! I'm begging you.

　And then...

"Ok. Alright. I will visit you later."

"I'll be looking forward to it. In the meantime, Desmond-sama, please take good care of Sophie. Emily will be taken care of by Katherine during that time."

　――*shake* *shake* *shake* *shake* *shake*.....

I want to praise myself for keeping my trembling inside.

"Good boy, good boy"

Charlotte-chama says, but it's not the time for me to get flatter.

--What is going to happen.....?

　Of course, I knew she wouldn't answer that question.....

but, well, um.....this is not something to talk about during a meal!

　I haven't had a meal this scary since I arrived at Aldora.

The two women flanked me, both of them are noble ladies, and they seemed to be oblivious to my anxiousness.

And then they continued to eat.

――Er... well, really, the two of you can get along――right?
