The Villainess Daughter’s Plans

☆☆

“Anastasia-sama, did you sleep well last night?”

“Hmm, I guess it’s alright.”

The next morning, when Nina came to wake me up, I said this to her and stretched my body. Nina opened the curtains of my room, and there were only a few clouds in the sky. Yes, the weather seemed to be fine.

“Speaking of which, Anastasia-sama. You’re going to look around the territory today, aren’t you?”

“Yes, that’s the plan.”

At any rate, I couldn’t do anything without knowing the territory first, that’s why I was supposed to go around the territory with my brother, Max-san, and Sylvia-san today. William-sama seemed to have business as the crown prince here as well, so we were going our separate ways. As for Lloyd and Nina, they will be assisting the attendants here, so they’re also not coming with us. Both of them looked quite dissatisfied, but when I asked them, they agreed in an instant. Beautiful girls were the best, weren’t they?

“This land seems to be mainly used for growing fruits, so I’m wondering if I can make something with the fruits.”

“…Apples. I’ll see if I can find some other suitable fruit.”

This place was a fantasy world, but there was something here like a greenhouse from my previous life. Well, the inside was magically controlled and the temperature was constantly adjusted, so it was completely different on how you could maintain the same temperature all year round. Only their uses were similar. In other words, in this world, you could grow the same crops all year round as long as the soil was suitable. Simply put, the apples could be harvested throughout the year.

“Well, I guess we can take a look at that when we go to visit the fruit growers. Anyway, I’ll have to suggest to my brother that we use apples. I’m sure my brother will be able to negotiate with them.”

Brother was more used to these kinds of situations than I was. I heard that Max-san often took on these kinds of matters, but I think that older brother had more experience and power. Moreover, brother has the personality of a demon king. I was sure that he’ll be able to make the conversation go as he sees fit.

“Oh, that reminds me, Anastasia-sama. I heard that Max-san and Sylvia-san are going to take their meals somewhere else.”

“…Wait a minute. Doesn’t that mean me, my brother, and my husband will be eating together…?”

“Yes, it does. I’m sure you’ll be pleased to know that Lloyd and I will both eat in the servants’ dining room.”

…I was stunned by such casual words coming from Nina. My brother was good. I didn’t mind him at all, but I don’t want to have dinner with William-sama, even if he’s… my husband. I won’t be able to eat properly because I’ll be too worried. I didn’t want to if I could help it.

“Umm… I’m not feeling very well today…”

“If you’re not feeling well, I’ll have to inform Matheus-sama this.”

“Please don’t! Please don’t do that! I’m fine!”

If a report like this would reach my brother’s ears, we would have to postpone today’s tour of the territory. If at all possible, I would’ve liked to complete the tour by today. This was why I instantly withdrew my temporary illness and put my trust in Nina to not tell my brother about this. Even her gaze appealed to my request as well.
