“By the way, do newspapers come to the mansion?”

“Of course.”

“If you’re not uncomfortable, can we receive one more newspaper? I’ll pay for it.”

Carlon crossed his arms and gazed at her with a look of disapproval. When there was no answer from him, Valletta slowly pondered what she had said.

She exclaimed ‘Ah’, and opened her mouth again.

“Do I ask for this as a favor as well?”

“You can ask me for anything except for those that you can do yourself.”

“I see.”

Valletta nodded her head.

How should she ask for this? She sluggishly worked through it in her head.

When learning a foreign language, it would be easier to have a conversation formula for things like basic tense, past tense, and present tense.

“Then…”

Her brows slightly furrowed.

“Please, Carlon. I’ll pay for it, so let’s receive one more copy of newspaper.”

“…”

“…”

Both Quilt and Carlon’s mouth were blocked.

The format was obviously a request, but that’s it. It was a request forced into that frame.

Quilt looked at Valletta with a very slight sense of surprise.

He had guessed to some extent that neither his master nor the woman in front of him were ordinary. However, he never expected that she would be this inflexible.

“… Valletta, if you’re paying for it, then what’s the point of requesting it from me?”

“I don’t know how to order and receive the goods in your mansion, so I will need to trouble Your Grace for this part and bother you.”

Carlon touched his forehead.

The explanation was lacking. It seemed like he didn’t have any talent in explaining. Duke Leon forcibly pushed the child to understand, unfortunately, that kind of coercion was not Carlon Delphine’s personality.

“It won’t bother me.”

“I understand. If I edit that part… Ah, should I remove the ‘I’m paying’ part?”

Valletta asked, tilting her head.

She wasn’t even some kind of a machine, so he wanted to ask the reason as to why she was this twisted. In what kind of environment, and what kind of treatment, does a person have to go through to grow up this soulless?
