Haunted Duke’s Daughter

Listening to the side, Tina who didnt understand the current situation tilted her head, puzzled. At first, Lilia also didnt know what Chris was going on about but immediately realized something. The results of the exam were just released so it was probably something in relation to that. Thinking from Chris perspective, Lilia could guess what Chris was going to ask.

Probably about what measures Lilia took to achieve that score.

Chris probably didnt think it was through Lilias own ability and Lilia understood that too. It wasnt possible to believe that someone could just raise their grades all of sudden like that.

It wasnt necessary for Chris to believe anything but still, deciding not to deceive her, Lilia stared fixedly at Chris.

Chris narrowed her eyes and observed Lilia intently. It was as if Chris was trying to ascertain the real truth from her but Lilia didnt feel particularly insulted from it. From the corner of Lilias eyes, Tina was flustering about so Lilia waved her off, sending her a sign that everything was alright.

Finally, Chris averted her gaze from Lilia and raised a smile to her face.

said Chris, bowing her head.

Lilia sniffed and waved her hand dismissively to show she didnt mind.

Lilia sat down in an open seat and took a sip of the black tea Alisa brewed for her. After savoring it slowly, she let out a breath.

For the prince, it is obviously so, but Chris parents too are in a position able to inspect the grades of the students. If it was a matter of finding out earlier or later, finding out earlier was not that much of a big deal.

(T/N: Crystal is Chris. Previous translation group used Krystal/Kris.)

Tina bowed her head respectfully. Speaking of standards, first of all, entering a room without informing its owner is also an issue but Lilia decided to pretend she didnt notice that.

Chris, amused, laughed sarcastically but also a bit apologetically.

As Lilia said this to Chris with a smile, Chris widened her eyes for a second and then let out a small sigh. Lilia tilted her head, wondering what was wrong, and Chris shaked her head.

Lilia accepted Chris words honestly. Chris seemed surprised at that, but this time, only narrowed her eyes a little and didnt show any other reaction besides that. Now that her business was finished, Chris got up from her seat.

Saying that, Chris headed towards the door. Lilia thought about calling out to Chris but in the end, said nothing and simply watched her retreating figure.

Tina, who was staring blankly in a daze, came back to her senses when Lilia called out to her. She tried to reply cheerfully, but, for some reason, her energy quickly dropped and she became dispirited. As Lilia knitted her brows in confusion, Tina spoke in a small voice.

Ah, said Tina, at a loss for words, and finally let out a resigned sign. She quietly placed her report card and exam paper on the table. Looking at the papers, Lilia tilted her head.

[S] How high is her goal that she doesnt feel satisfied with this.?

[L] For a lower class noble, with this grade, itismore than enough though.

However, having ambition is a good thing. If Tina were satisfied with those results, Tina would stop putting in additional effort. Lilia felt sorry for Tina but decided to let Tina continue with her disappointed thoughts.

After Lilia had said that, Tina vigorously raised her head and began staring fervently at Lilia.

Lilia ended up saying the last part with a soft voice. Even so, Tina heard it clearly and her face brightened. As Lilia averted her gaze down, embarrassed, Tina laughed.

After somewhat giving a reply, Lilia wondered if that was enough when Tina, as expected, laughed again.
