Chapter 239 – Heroine Popularity Vote Winner Side Story: Esily
Esily tensed and clung to the parasol that had been placed on her lap. It was because she always got along with her adults and was formal and polite, so the self-introduction of a boy her age was quite unfamiliar to Seely.
However, not accepting the greeting was disrespectful towards the boy. Aesili, who had managed to regain her composure, spoke shyly.
“I see. Theoradra……That’s a great name.”
As Esily shared her impressions of her, Theorard relaxed.
“It is overrated. Can my name be compared to yours?”
“Ah. No, i’m not kidding I think it’s really cool.”
“I also think Lady Young lady’s name is pretty.”
My face blushed involuntarily at the sudden compliment. As she lowered her gaze, Silly raised her hand and touched the side of her hair of her, as if she was embarrassed. Even in the shade, Esily’s blonde hair shines like silk. Her hair was partly natural, but it was a proof that she was taking good care of her.
“…… Do you really think so?”
The voice that wants to be properly confirmed trembles strangely. Theorard, fully understanding her Esily’s feelings of her, nodded her head with a smile on her face.
“Yes. If you wish, I will swear on my heart.”
“What, huh? You don’t have to walk all the way to your heart…….”
“It’s a joke.”
“If you say that as a joke…….”
“Actually, I am serious.”
Esily shut her mouth tight and glared at Theo Rad. It was because Theorard, who played pranks on a woman he had never seen before, and even on the youngest daughter of the Countess Pelgar who ruled the central part of the empire, was both absurd and hateful.
I wanted to say something, but I couldn’t help but give up because that smiling face didn’t seem to show any malice.
─ Miss Esily! Where are you!
At that time, David’s cry echoes softly through the wall. Essilly sighed and stood up from her chair, thinking it was time.
“…… I think we should go. It looks like her father is calling me.”
“Okay. I have something to do, so I think we should break up now.”
“Yes. ‘Cause I still remember your name her See you next time.”
Theo Rad stepped back from her and nodded his head.
“Yes. See you again soon.”
Soon? The vocabulary was a bit odd, but she didn’t think it through. As she waved her hand at her Theo Rad, Essilli moved her steps her in her heart her, a little saddened. Because she thought she should n’t keep her father her waiting long.

She followed her guide into the drawing room of her mansion, which was featured in the story of meeting Harved, who was looking for her.
However, in the parlor, not even his father his, even Wellian, the head of the Deham family, was not seen.
Sensing that something was wrong with her, Seeley asked her to explain everything, and Harvey broke into a sweat and explained her.
Wellian and Leoberg, who wanted the children to promote friendship with each other, wanted to arrange a place for the two of them, and Harvey, who gathered their opinions, called Esily to the drawing room where no one was present.
To be honest, it was an absurd decision, but it was a choice made by her father her and the head of the Deharm family, so she did not raise any objections. It was the best Essilie could do to answer with a smile on her face.
Afterwards, Shili, sitting at the table by the window, was naturally not in a good mood, but he decided to endure it.
It was just a matter of politely greeting the Deharm family’s only child when they entered the parlor and talking with a false smile. It wasn’t too difficult for her, since she had learned so much that it was a conversational art to entertain others.
‘By the way…….’
Why is it that the person sitting in front of me right now is Theorad? The figure wearing slacks and suspenders is nowhere to be seen, and Theorard, who is well-dressed in family clothes with his hair neatly combed, approaches him in a different way.
He even wore a luxurious brooch around his neck, which doubled the sense of heterogeneity. It wasn’t that he didn’t fit in. It was to the point where I could feel the dignity and dignity in the neatly dressed antique clothes.
The current attire was so natural that the image of Theorard wearing overalls made it even more awkward to remember. In short, the identity of this sense of heterogeneity originated from Esily’s misunderstanding.
“…… Young master has tricked me.”
There was a lot of shame in the words that came out as he chewed his lips. Hana Theorard was only puzzled by Esily’s words to her.
“You’re cheating. What do you mean?”
“You didn’t announce yourself as the only son of the Deharm family in the courtyard.”
“If you had asked, I would have been happy to answer.”
Ashley’s face gets a little redder. For she could not dare imagine how much disrespect she had done to the son of House Deharm.
He was bad at Theo Rad for cheating on him, but he was just as bad for not trying to get to know the other person properly. After hesitating, Shili finally bowed her head, bending her pride. Blond hair, shining like a hail of gold, gently ran down his shoulders of her.
“Forgive me. The rudeness I have done will surely someday-“
“It is not rude.”
As if not to worry, Theorard said kindly.
“I really enjoyed talking with the Lady. To the point where I would like to see them again and again if possible.”
At the unexpected reply, Esily raised her head and looked at Theorard. My heart beats quietly, probably because of Theorard staring at me with a faint smile. Her face her blushed, and she opened her lips for no reason.
“I wasn’t bad either…….”
“Yes. I understand. You said you don’t like arranged marriages. It would be difficult for my father and the young lady’s father to pursue an engagement like this. So I will try to cancel the engagement with the excuse that I don’ t like it on my side.”
That’s not what I meant. Seely’s eyes her trembled as she bit her lip hard.
“You don’t have to worry. Even if we’re not engaged, we’ll be able to talk as friends enough. My father and the Count are on good terms, so you can come over often.”
Tears begin to form in Ashley’s eyes. It was because Theo Rad was directly denying the engagement with him, so he was sad without knowing why.
She, of course, did it herself. She said that she hated arranged marriages, and it was none other than Ashly herself who denied her engagement her.
Complex emotions she had never felt were piercing her young heart her. Essili, who involuntarily grabbed the hem of her skirt, opened her mouth after taking a deep breath.
“Gongja-nim…… Do you hate me?”
“Yes? Of course I don’t like it. Rather, I have a good opinion of the young lady.”
“…… Then don’t cancel.”
I don’t understand the context of the conversation. As Theorard stared blankly, Essee plucked up the courage to purse her lips.
“I mean, don’t cancel the engagement…….”
It was Esily’s first confession that will go down in history.

“Esley.”
The wind blowing is cool Sitting on a bench in her courtyard and reminiscing about her memories of her, Esily slowly opens her eyes. Hearing her voice her, she turned her head in the direction she came from, and, of course, Theo Rad was looking this way.
“I’ve been blank since before…… What do you think so hard about?”
“Just. Doing this reminds me of the day Theorard and I first met.”
“It was the first day we met. I see.”
Like Esily, Theorard, recalling the memories, smiled happily.
“I was splinting the flower when you suddenly approached me. Guided by the beautiful voice, I looked up, but I remember being surprised because there was an angel there.”
An angel You’re just saying something embarrassing. Esily looked around her pretending to smoke her but she didn’t see any other servants coming and going. Only then did Esily, relieved, lean her body towards Theo Rad, as if asking for more.
“So.”
“Yes? What do you mean?”
“I want you to tell me why I look like an angel.”
Probably the obvious answer. Because it was obvious that compliments on her appearance would be the main thing. Still, I wanted to hear it directly from Theorard’s mouth his.
As Esily looked on with her anticipation of her, she hesitated for a moment before Theorard let out a big smile and repeated her feelings about her past.
“First of all, there are traces of cloth padding in the corner of the parasol.”
“…… Yeah? A parasol?”
“Okay. It must have been scratched by a sharp branch or a wall. However, it did not look like it was left to the experts to repair it. Because my sewing skills were a mess. Perhaps Esily, you sewed it yourself.”
Ethily’s mouth her opened softly. Because it wasn’t wrong.
“As in the past and now, Count Pelgarin is a great family with enormous wealth and employing numerous talents. The fact that you, born as a daughter of such a family, sewed with your own hands was a scene that clearly showed your good nature, not wanting to cause trouble to others.”
“That, that…….”
“Moreover, you tilted your parasol toward me. To help me tired of the heat. At the time, you didn’t hesitate to help, even though you thought of me as a lowly starter in the mansion. You can see that she is a woman who does not discriminate based on her good intentions on her.”
Embarrassed, Emily blushed. The answer came so unexpectedly that she was at a loss as to how to respond. After clearing her throat once, Esily quickly changed the subject.
“Oh, well. But how did you know I was lonely then?”
“Simple. Didn’t you confide your personal history to me, who I thought was just the start of the mansion? It is highly likely that you are in a very difficult state mentally to the extent of confiding your personal history to a child of your age with whom you have no one to know.”
“…….”
“I don’t really know what the count’s education method was like at the time, but it was probably strict enough to make you want to run away. I could see that in your expression and voice. So I wanted to comfort you. Because I was a poor child.”
Theorard turned her head to look at Essilly. She just kept her mouth shut, unable to say anything through her reddened face.
“That poor child is now…….”
Theo Radga, who gently bowed her head, kissed Seely on the forehead. Side. Her shoulders twitched her, Esily raised her gaze, and Theo Rad smiled happily and patted Esily’s hair her.
“She is wiser than I am, and she has made a very loving wife.”
Now it’s a slope. Her shyness reached its peak, and she didn’t even know where to look.
Why can’t she think of reducing her fluttering feelings of her? Conscious of her stupidly pounding heart her, Essilie unnaturally bit her body her.
“Oh, it’s not difficult.”
Esily, who had been brainwashed at random, looked at the front clumsily and floundered. Then, Theo Rad, who was looking at Sally cutely, gently grabbed her hand her.
Thus, Theorard followed Esily’s gaze and leisurely looked around the flower garden in the courtyard without saying anything.
In the world that had become quite quiet, I couldn’t help but glance at Theo Rad and secretly blush at her.
‘It’s a big deal…….’
Apparently, it seemed like Theorard would get better from today.
