Alyssa decided to take the advice of the unknown gardener.
In fact, Ophelia’s spirit had ceased at some point, but her eyes were clearly telling.
I hate you, really, really hate you.
‘It can’t be helped.’
Alyssa was here on behalf of Avery’s sins, and the Cambridge people were entitled to blame and hate the royal family.
Avery’s arrogant and assertive behavior drove Cambridge into despair, which was clearly an unleaderable act of an imperial family. Because a man named king rose up with a sense of inferiority toward his servants.
Alyssa, who had them as a family, had nothing to say with even ten mouths. She evaluated her father by herself and swallowed a sigh of sorrow.
He drove the hero of the country to death with a non-trivial cause, and now presses the duke.
This proposal that Alyssa makes to Ophelia and Juliana is not for Alyssa herself, but rather because of the thought that she should make a small reward for them. The act of comforting those who have experienced something they may not have to experience if not because of the Avery royal family.
However, it was not easy to even speak out at the dinner table, so she was very careful.
“I…”
At Alyssa’s voice breaking through the serene table, Ophelia raised her eyes, sighing. Ophelia’s gaze diverted Alyssa, staring into the air behind her.
“What is it?”
As if that’s the best thing, only her lips blush like a carp with an emotionless face. Alyssa managed to stop the sigh from bursting and smiled.
“I… have something to tell you.”
It wasn’t easy to speak properly because her throat was so tight. Like when talking with the gardener, it would be nice to have words come out just like then, but if she stands in front of them, she becomes a sinner and lowered your head.
Alyssa’s lips trembled.
She had to hesitate for a while, knowing that the silence was a silent pressure to say anything.
Eventually, it wasn’t until Juliana helped Alyssa that her mouth was opened.
“Please tell me.”
“…I was wondering if you’d like to visit the cemetery with me if you have time.”
It was a trembling voice, but she pronounced it clearly to convey Alyssa’s will. Even saying this was a great courage for Alyssa.
Bump-
It really seemed to sound like that. Ophelia’s head, looking in the air, returned to Alyssa.
Her eyes blinked in amazement, and transparent tears began to accumulate in Ophelia’s eyes. It’s as if it’s going to flow right now.
Ophelia opened her eyes wide and breathed out as if she didn’t want to spill the tears.
“Well, is that really? Can you do that?”
The same was true for Juliana, who stopped eating and stared at Alyssa blankly. They have not been able to go to Kendrick’s tomb because they were hated by the royal family. King Avery’s shamelessness destroyed a family like this. Which family can’t easily step into their family’s graveyard?
Alyssa smiled bitterly and nodded.
Ophelia bowed her head in a flimsy smile. The tears she was holding forcibly fell. Drops of transparent tears wet the hem of the dress. The fragile body, trembling, seemed so delicate, and made a sad heart bloom.
Ophelia and Juliana have never been to see Kendrick since the funeral, where they didn’t know how he was. No, they couldn’t go to see it. Because they couldn’t even enter the Royal Cemetery… Kendrick, who loved the warmth, must have been in a lonely and cold place, but they couldn’t hug him once.
Even if he was strangled by his second brother, he only sighed and did not give an answer. It was a refusal that even the young Ophelia could know and what bothers Seidrick.
“Alyssa, even if you don’t overdo it…”
Only
Mrs. Juliana looked at Alyssa with a quivering voice.
“It’s because I want to do it, mother.”
However, she stopped responding to Alyssa’s words. Her open eyes were wide open and fluttered.
“If only you could do that…”
Like a man who is short of breath, Mrs. Juliana gasped. She didn’t even notice that the tears she thought were dry from crying wet her cheeks. The fact that she could go to her son who she had not been able to be there after the funeral made her heart feel like this.
