The Hero Proposed to Me

What the hell happened? It became noisier and noisier outside, and Alex was only looking at the music rooms door.

I had an ominous premonition that something bad was going to happen.

Open the door!

The door of the music room opened with a bang, scared after hearing the thundering voice outside. There was no courtesy at all, without knocking even once, countless servants continued to come in when the door opened.

Seeing that they were all well-dressed, I thought it was not normal, but soon after, a colorful lady appeared.

Who was it? Who was it? A woman with strawberry blonde hair and a slightly grim impression.

Her Majesty, do you have any business without prior notice?

You damn memory! It was Empress Lotte, Alexs enemy and his political opponent, who would bother me very much in the future.

How dare you speak to me? Youre talking with that uncivilized mouth. You lowly thing.

Strawberry blondes beauty, which seemed treacherous and arrogant, had tremendous charisma, as expected of the Emperors sister.

Why are you so angry? Oh, I had a guess. If thats the case, its not unreasonable to get angry like that. It must be unfair that the Prime Ministers place for the Marquis of Romford, who worked hard, has disappeared.

The eyes staring at Alex seemed to be ready to eat him, so I was nervous just from watching.

But Alex didnt even blink once.

Back off.

When the lady beckoned, the servants backed away. Suddenly, we became alone without a single observer. I wondered why, so I grabbed the curtain and watched the situation.

How dare you.

The lady raised her hand to the utmost and slapped Alex on the cheek over and over again.

Alexs head turned with the sound of a clap. The diamond of the ring on her hand shone exceptionally, and the decoration scratched Alexs face.

Before he knew it, blood was flowing from his cheek, but Alex didnt moan once even after being hit like that.

Its like you dont know the subject as a prostitutes son, and youre aiming to be the Crown Prince.

Now youre cursing at his mom. No matter how much you hate Alex, how can you use such a curse on the Princes mother?

Against the child who did not rebel, the woman began to trample on Alexs pride with all her might.

The moment I tried to step up, Alex moved first.

We have guests today. If youre angry, Ill take it as much as you want next time, so lets stop here today.

When Alex answered back, she shook her fist and even screamed.

Angry? Are you going to lecture me now?

You poured oil over the fire[1]. Foolish Alex, I know you said it out of awareness of me, but that remark, which did not consider the listener at all, rather angered her.

Alexs body collapsed on the floor because he couldnt stand the Princesss blow. The woman began to use her hands and feet.

You better die, you better die!

QC/N: thisbish

The situation has become serious. Alex asked me not to come forward, and I barely held it in because I was afraid that I would make things more difficult if I went out for nothing.

Even though it was this situation, there was no one outside looking into it. I could see why Alex would clench his teeth whenever he thought of Princess Lotte.

You cant be on the same side as that person even if you wake up from death. If I leave it like this, I think Alex will get hurt badly. But even while being beaten like that, Alex was looking at me with a look saying, Dont come out.

Leaving it like this, its not my life but Alexs thats in danger.

Im sorry. I just cant get over it. I broke my promise with Alex and ran out of the curtain.

Please stop!

As I abruptly popped out from behind the curtain, the woman looked perplexed. Oh, you should be surprised. My appearance is nothing short of a walking billboard.

Glittering blond hair, emerald eyes that resemble my father.

One more thing, she has known my mother since childhood, so she cant help but recognize me.

Eve?

I see Your Highness, Lady Ciel Valentine greets you.

My mother, Eveness Rose Haddington, was originally the daughter of a simple count. Although she came from such a family, she had such outstanding beauty, thats why the Princess carried her like a pretty accessory since she was young.

Meanwhile, when the current Emperor, who was the Crown Prince at that time, showed interest in my mother, she suddenly changed her attitude and began to ostracize her.

Youre from a poor family, and youre looking at the throne with greed all over your face!

Her followers, both men, and women, began to exclude my mother.

While being bullied so ridiculously, she met my father like it was fate.

The two fell in love at first sight. And from the waves of passion, brother Theo was born.

She not only became the Duchess of Valentine, but she also gave birth to a successor; Princess Lotte could no longer ignore my mother.

So far, she has been getting along moderately well with my mother, only pretending to be superficially close to her.

Maybe until today.
