I Swear I Won’t Bother You Again!

Chapter 45



Chapter 45

In the end, Violette helped the student council until the sky had become dark.

Apparently, she was pretty focused on her task. Even the new cup of tea the butler prepared when Mirania returned to the salon was already cold. Feeling apologetic, Violette hurriedly drank it at the end. The tea wasn't freshly brewed anymore, but it was delicious enough.

Im sorry for making you help us until this late.

Its getting dark But you have been very helpful. Really.

No, its my pleasure.

After Violette finished her tasks, both of the young men relaxed their shoulders. Or rather, they looked like they were so tired that they didnt have any strength left.

Still, they had piles of unfinished documents in front of them. Its clear that they just wanted to stop delaying Violettes return any more than this.

After aligning the edges of the documents Violette had in her hands, she put the fountain pen on the paperweight and stood up.

Mirania said, I will check your work after this, so you can go home now. Your carriage is...

I believe that they are waiting at the school gate.

I see. Then its good. Since its already dark, Ill send you there.

Claudia didnt say anything to Miranias unexpected behavior to Violette. On the contrary, he was already in work-mode.

After Mirania told the prince that he would send her to the carriage and extended his hand to escort her, Violette finally understood the current situation.

No, um The school gate is really close from here

This academy was awfully wide, but going to the school gate from here would only take a few minutes on foot. It wasnt that far.

Above all, they shouldnt be in the kind of relationship that would make him treat her like this. And the academy was a safe zone, so she didnt expect him to send her off. Plus, they still had work to do. Since they were very busy and short-handed, Violette understood that they would have to make some sacrifice to solve their problem. It was only natural that they rather utilized their energy for themselves so they could go home earlier.

But its also not that near. We cant be too cautious.

Youre right, but

The security of the academy was strong, but she couldn't confidently say that it was perfect. The academy certainly made sure that no outsiders would come in and attack the students, but if the offender was an insider, it would be a different case altogether. Ordinary people would lump this academy as a school of rich people, but once they enrolled here, they would realize that this academy was a jumble of status and faction. Even degenerates who were madly in love or had ulterior motive could still roam around and bully other students.

Listen, Violette. Since you have helped us until now, we just want to make you feel at ease.

Right. If you refuse, I can only follow Miss Violette from behind. If possible, I dont want to do such a thing that makes me look like a stalker.

The way they said it was very concise, making sure that they could convince Violette. Arguing over this, again and again, would only pointlessly waste time. It wasnt very productive.

Although Violette was reluctant to make people prioritize her, she didnt want to bother them any further.

...Then, can I ask you this favor?

Of course, Mirania answered with a big smile. He then picked up Violettes bag and looked like he was putting his hand on her waist, but only Violette knew that he actually didnt touch her at all.

Mirania seemed to be mindful at this kind of thing. Unconsciously, Violette stared at Miranias face, thinking that this man was definitely popular with the girls. Mirania noticed her sight, but he smiled without saying anything. This should be the definition of a man with gentle manners.

Just before leaving the salon, Violette heard a voice calling her from behind.

Violette.

Yes.

Im sorry for suddenly asking you to help me today Thank you.

Eh

Claudia immediately turned away, but she could see that his white skin turned red in the bright room. Claudias ears were bright red.

On the corner of Violettes head, she thought that today was surely full of surprises. It was all unexpected, but such a day wasnt that bad either.

...Im the one who should be thanking you.

It was Violette who correctly read Violettes complexion and called her here.

For Claudia, he was asking her because he had too much work. But for Violette, the prince was like spider silk that took her away from her pain.

Its her who should thank him.

Violette bowed to Claudia and left the room, leaving the prince who didnt understand why she thanked him.

Two footsteps with different clumps echoed in the corridor. The surroundings were quiet, giving the illusion that no one else was in the academy. But of course that wasnt true. At least Claudia was still in the salon. However, due to the size of the academy, their footsteps sounded faint, giving the sense of remoteness. Even so, some academy staffs most probably should be around here if they looked for them.

Not only Violette, but Mirania might have also judged that feeling awkward without having any conversation was somewhat better than struggling to chat in harmony.

Even if Mirania had adjusted his pace, but the difference in their steps made him take the lead. Violette followed behind him, distracting herself by focusing at the front.

To be honest, she was nervous about being alone with Mirania, in a different sense from when she was with Claudia.

For Mirania, Violette was a selfish noble lady who tormented his close friend. He didnt know how did her feelings towards him end. Claudia seemed to be aware of Miranias confusion, but the prince especially wouldnt talk about his love affairs without thinking, no matter how close they were.

Above all, Violette didnt confess to Claudia, and Claudia didnt reject her.

They continued to walk in silence for another few minutes.

When they approached the school gate and saw a carriage that parked there, Violettes shoulders gradually relaxed. Honestly, she didnt like this tension to continue for too long. It wasnt painfully awkward, but like something heavier than gravity was choking her.

Um, you can just send me here.

Thats your carriage?

Yes.

Then Ill go back. Be careful on your way home.

After receiving her baggage, Violette bowed and turned her back to Mirania who waved his hand.

It was a pain to go home, but she didnt feel good staying with Mirania like this. Perhaps, the most reassuring part of this day was when she was in the carriage on the way to the school.

I hope no one will comment about me going home late.

Even though she could say that she helped the student council, she didnt want to voice anything unnecessary. Not to say, Claudia and Maryjun were acquainted.

However, her parents most probably didnt have any interest in what she was doing. They definitely wouldnt notice whether she was going home later than usual, or even not going home anymore. Violette didnt have any complaints since she didnt care about them too, but if Maryjun became excessively worried, she had to make an excuse.

Maryjun was Violettes only family member who cared about her, trying to involve her to the happy circle family. But Violette couldnt properly accept her kindness. It wasnt Violette or Maryjuns fault, but their bad environment.

As she made assumptions on what would happen once she was home, Violette watched the slowly flowing scenery. She sighed, quiet enough that the coachman didnt notice a thing.
