***

Even though it was the day after the large-scale dinner party, the Marquis of Vaslane prepared a party for Princess Deborah.  

'The more you chew, the sweeter it is.' 

Because he was satisfied with the deal he had with the princess yesterday.

In addition, Kev Blankan who was a trader that the Marquis had invited several times to work with.  

'But no matter how much I took it, it didn't fall for me.' 

He didn't think Kev, who watched with a passive attitude, would show his will like this.  

Kev not only guaranteed to bring customers to dispose of the copper, but he also agreed to stay in Vaslane to help the Marquis insurance business.

"Princess Deborah is the pumpkin rolled down the vines… You're the goodness of luck. You became her chaperone and invited the princess to the castle."

Note: "Pumpkins rolled down the vines" used to say that you unexpectedly got something good or met good fortune.

After the praise, he gave a small chuckle and kissed the back of his wife's hand several times.

"It's not something I pushed, Princess Deborah actively asked me to invite her to the castle."

The Marquis' wife spoke while organizing her husband's clothes.

"I didn't like Princess Deborah because she had a bad reputation. At that time, I didn't think will there's smoke coming out of the chimney. But now I'm so greedy that I want to be her godmother."

Note: "will there's smoke coming out of the chimney" is an expression meaning there is no effect without a cause or  there is no rumor without some grounds.

The image of the princess negotiating with her husband in a relaxed manner left a strong impression on the mind of the Marquis' wife.

It was also impressive that, while turning the situation into an advantage, she kept the line moderately and produced a result that everyone was satisfied with.  

'I've learned a few things.'

It's not easy to convince my husband because he's a typical single-headed ignorant man, but she makes him die and even his prejudiced mind melts.  

She was a great girl in many ways.  

It was only a pity that she was undervalued in the social world because of her cold impression, speech, and rumors from unknown sources.  

'How should I explain this to other noble ladies?' 

I want to brag to the whole town that I am a genius chaperone.

“By the way, no matter how long you have been here, the day you will return is already tomorrow morning. Time flies so fast.” 

The Marquis said as if it were a pity. 

“I know.” 

“Today, I have to open the oak barrel I loved.” 

The Marquise went down to the party hall with a small precious drink and a smile on her face.

The Marquise sipped champagne to Isidor, who was standing on the terrace.

“Nephew, it's a big deal. So make sure to catch it. You know what I’m talking about?”
