Chapter 57: Snatching Relatives

Mia dragged her cheeks on the couch, absentmindedly flipping through the latest knight novel that Kakuhn had just bought, and then angrily threw it on the ground.

Ah~ah, the earl's daughter cried out in annoyance with her head in her hands, her current mood is so bad that she can't do it.

Why, why.

Sidmund was still bouncing around the castle, but he was confined to the claustrophobic chamber by his father.

It's not fair! I kicked the guy, but he deserved it!

No, I have to get out.

Mia's eyes rolled as she rolled over and stepped off the couch, alertly observing everything around her.

The claustrophobic room has all the infrastructure, and it can even be called luxurious, the only difference from the usual suites is that the claustrophobic room has no windows, and even the door is designed according to the cage.

It is said that this peculiar room was built to imprison a noble captive, and she does not remember who that captive was.

Damn, if only I could shrink my bones. Mia was a little frustrated, she was just a trainee thief, and the secret method of shrinking bones needed the help of Dou Qi to achieve.

Ahh

Mia was a little desperate, although she asked Kakun to go to Adams for help, but to be honest, she didn't expect the two of them to make any waves, her father was not a vegetarian.

Alas, it's still up to me to get my ingenuity.

......

The steward buttoned the third button in front of his neckline, and he stood in front of the mirror and twisted his body in satisfaction.

The steward twisted his slightly stiff neck and soothed his neck muscles, which had become sore from copying invitations overnight.

Time flies so fast, in the blink of an eye, the once naughty tomboy has become a beautiful big girl, and in the blink of an eye, the eldest lady is about to be officially engaged to His Royal Highness the Prince.

Although our Earl's daughter and His Royal Highness the Prince seem to be very wrong, there are even rumors that the two have had a big fight.

However, feelings can be cultivated slowly.

At first, the Earl and the Countess only came together because of a political marriage, but the depth of their relationship is obvious to all.

Thinking of this, the steward was also a little envious, and he was not too young, but she didn't show up for a long time.

Now that Marienburg has officially formed an alliance with the royal family, when the war is over, will the Earl of Marienburg expand and become a marquisate?

When the time comes, will you be able to be named a little nobleman, are you afraid that you won't be able to find a partner at that time?

Thinking like this, he picked up the wet towel and wiped it on his face twice, preparing to report the matter to the Earl.

The heels of the leather shoes made a pleasant "click" on the marble floor, and the steward greeted the maids hurrying along the road with a pleasant face.

Ever since the Earl announced that he was going to hold the Miss's engagement ball, the castle had become much busier, and all the people were preparing for the grand ball, trying to make all the big people present remember that important moment.

As usual, the steward walked through the servants' quarters in the basement, and he made his way up the winding staircase to enter the common area of the castle, when he was about to reach the castle floor when a thin man in a robe approached from above.

The steward remembered him, a retainer that the prince had brought with him, and he did not know why this noble man would be interested in hanging out in the humble quarters of the servants, but it had nothing to do with him.

The prince's accession to Marienburg seems to be a foregone conclusion, so the retainer should also get a good position in Marienburg.

So he greeted him respectfully, and continued his way to the earl's room.

Like Miss Mia's room, the rooms of Lord Count and Lady were on the top floor of the castle, an area that most of the people could not set foot in.

The steward rearranged his clothes, and after making sure that there was no rudeness, he made his way to the Earl's room.

The steward stood outside the room, and he raised his hand to knock on the door. However, after hearing the voice inside, he consciously took a step back.

Not to intervene and sit in on the master's private affairs is a professional quality that a qualified steward should have.

in the room

Marin Doflamingo looked helplessly at his wife, who was throwing a tantrum at him.

"You said you wouldn't sell Mia as a commodity," the countess shouted menacingly at her husband.

The countess was pretty and elegant, but at this time she crossed her hands and posed as a shrewd that did not match her appearance. If Adams saw this scene, he must be able to understand who Mia's personality probably inherited.

"Honey, I swear I didn't", the usually imposing master of Marienburg raised his hands and made a gesture of surrender.

"Then why did you still lock Mia in confinement?" the countess did not relent, obviously refusing to let the other party go so easily.

"Listen to me, my dear," Marin Doflamingo, his head growing, patiently explained, "ostensibly the royal family trying to befriend us. ”

"But in reality, they're forcing us to take sides. ”

"Oh?"

The Countess had apparently heard this for the first time, but she had always been convinced of her husband's judgment.

"King Lawn's blatant sending the Fourth Prince to Marienburg is actually sending a signal to the rebels that we are allied with the Crown. ”

The Count sighed, "That old fellow is still so treacherous, and I saw that he was not a good thing when I first ventured with him. ”

The Countess nodded, evidently agreeing with this.

"As for the fourth prince of Rausch, as far as I can see, he is actually an outcast. ”

The Earl complained.

"Assuming that I really betrayed him regardless of the love I had back then, then this incompetent and useless Sidmund would not be a big deal to me. ”

"But if I still stand firmly with Lawn. ”

"Now the royal family needs a formal and significant commitment from me. ”

The Countess knew that the engagement ball was a promise made by Marienburg.

"Now the promise I have given", the Count smiled, and a wave of pride burst from him.

"As for our daughter Mia, no one is allowed to move!"
