'Master! The head of Berzet is here.'

The next day, Axion came to Inoaden.

This time, employees had already prepared to welcome guests, as they had already announced for the visit. But May opened her mouth carefully to Hilise, who had just left the room.

'Well, actually, one of the employees just broke the vase in the drawing room and is in a hurry to clean it up. That's why I prepared a table in the garden.'

As a matter of fact it was a lie.

The vase in the parlor was broken, but it was actually done on purpose to make excuses.

Hearing the news that the head of Berzet, who visited the other day, was coming again, the employees who heard the conversation between Hilise and Axion in the drawing room last time could not hide their excitement.

So today it's going to be sunny and warm, and they were planning to set up a garden with a better view to create a better atmosphere.

'You've already guided me to the garden.'

May looked at Hilise with her slightly anxious eyes, wondering if she would be caught with such dark feelings.

'Really? Okay.'

But Hilise turned to the garden obediently, believing May's words.

As soon as I left the building, the bright sunlight pierced my eyes. Each employee he encountered had greeted Hilise politely.

The sound of stepping on the lawn was squirming and wetting my ears lightly.

Now she's headed to a place where she used to drink tea alone sometimes. But after a while, the view of the garden where Hilise arrived was somewhat different.

~~Swaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa...

A man dressed in dark navy clothes sat in the middle of the vegetation looking like a figure in a famous painting.

Teacups on the table, silverware, and water filled vases containing flowers reflected the sunlight, disrupting the view.

Bright groups of light were young between black hair fluttering smoothly like the current, a beautiful face that gives a cool feeling when expressionless, and blue eyes that seemed to capture the sky on a clear autumn day.

Hilise paused for a moment and walked towards Axion.

Feeling a presence, he turned his head. Axion's lips slightly opened and then gradually closed.

After that, he had no words, no movement, just watched Hilise approaching.

It was like that until she was almost at the table.

'What's wrong with you?'

In the end, Hilise asked. Then Axion said, closing his eyes as if he had come to his senses.

'Oh, I'm sorry. It's a little too bright for me.'

After hearing that, Hilise was convinced.

It was understandable because the sunlight was quite strong today. Hilise sat opposite of Axion.

An employee waiting in the corner of the garden approached and poured tea into her teacup.

'Did yesterday go well?'

After the employee stepped back again, Hilise asked first, putting sugar in the teacup. Axion came today because of what happened to the Amelie family yesterday.
