But it’s a wonder if Avery’s forbidden daughter could be of any help.

Seidrick frowned.

In fact, he met Alyssa many times in the garden. The princess she felt at that time was a person far from such political and social affairs. Rather, she’s a person who gets along better with the forest.

She was a good person. She allows him to visit Kendrick’s grave right away.

Seidrick was very satisfied that he could see her mother’s comfortable face after a long time.

‘I think this condition is good.’

A relationship that neither Alyssa nor Seidrick expects anything from each other. There is no entanglement, so they don’t have to resent each other or have different feelings. He couldn’t have any feelings for the princess.

To be more honest, Seidrick wasn’t confident in facing Alyssa in his original identity.

Seidrick laughed.

He pretends to be fine, but in fact, he may be the one who feels the biggest vacancy Kendrick left behind right now. He couldn’t think apart from Alyssa Avery.

Besides, isn’t Alyssa the one who was going to marry Kendrick.

When he looked at Alyssa, he thought of Kendrick.

Kendrick died unjustly…

He doesn’t hate her, but…

“Next time…”

He hopes that someday he will reveal that he was the Duke, not a gardener. Seidrick buried his tired body in a chair.

From one to ten, there is no single thing that is at ease.

Seidrick fell asleep like that.

***

Alyssa finished her early makeup with a little excitement. She was about to go to Seidrick and make a suggestion that she thought of yesterday. She wore comfortable shoes to go to the garden in the afternoon, but it looked much more decorated than usual.

For the first time, she couldn’t sleep properly because she was excited to see her husband properly.

“Am I all right? Is it too much for the morning?”

“It’s not too much. You don’t have to worry. You’re really pretty.”

So, with Sasha’s support, Alyssa took steps. Whoo, whoo. Breathe deeply,

It was half anticipation and half excitement.

Alyssa believed that at the end of this step she would meet Seidrick, and that their relationship could be a bit better tomorrow than it is now.

But.

“The Duke is…”

“He’s already gone.”

“Where did you say he was going?”

“I don’t know, ma’am.”

With a transparent and sharp gaze, the butler told Alyssa. Seidrick isn’t here.

However, now another question arises. Is Seidrick really not inside?

‘You don’t want to meet me?’

Alyssa’s shoulders droop. The disappointment was great as the expectations were high. Her bloody steps wandered in front of the office.

It seems that she had too much courage to respond to the positive reactions of Ophelia and Juliana.

Who loves Alyssa Cambridge, who has Avery’s royal blood?

Still, there was someone in the garden who treated Alyssa without any prejudice. The gardener, ironically, used to be more comforting than her husband.

Alyssa stormed out of the door and headed out to the garden.

Her steps gradually accelerated. Panting for breath, she wandered looking for a place where he might be.

And when she found the gardener sitting by the lake and tilting his fishing rod.

“Excuse me.”

She smiled with a look of relief.

***

Seidrick headed for the garden as early as the morning sun.

It was to fish in the forest lake. It was a deviation that Seidrick was doing well when there were a lot of worries or things didn’t work out.

And very trivially, it was also to avoid Alyssa.

The mansion where Alyssa Cambridge, his wife lived was burdensome.

By the way.

“Excuse me.”

Alyssa’s voice came from behind her back. He came here to avoid her, but in the end, he met her.

What is certain is that it is more comfortable to meet with Alyssa like this now than Alyssa at the mansion. Avery’s bridle was on top of Alyssa Cambridge, but maybe the moment they meet in the garden, she is just a woman who wants a companion.

Seidrick slowly turned his head.

“Ah. You are here again.”

“If you don’t come in a day, you can’t see it change. Flowers bloom, fall, a new life is born, and it would be regretful if we miss those things.”
