Everything was seen and heard
“It wasn’t just us.”
“Congratulations, Mr. Takumi and Lady Claire!”
“The moon shines bright in blessing of this occasion. Congratulations, both of yoU!”
“Phillip, Nicholas…”
Other figures appeared behind Sebastian.
And they all had warm smiles and kind words.
Alfred, Jane, Gelda…Hermina, Milina and…Ms. Helena soon followed.
“Congratulations! Lady Claire!”
“Johanna…”
She was crying for some reason. I suppose it showed how much she cared about Claire.
Still, why were there so many people…
At this point, it felt like the majority of the household had been watching.
“Were you watching the whole time?”
I asked Sebastian.
“Oh, certainly not! Indeed…where did we start watching, Lyra?”
There was no way he had forgotten, so he was clearly doing this to tease me.
“Let me see… I think it was when Mr. Takumi gave Lady Claire the flowers? I do remember him saying something about their meaning.”
“But that is practically the beginning!”
“Oh, perhaps it was then. Still, what you said was very interesting.”
So not only had they been watching, but they were able to hear the whole conversation too.
Well, it was nighttime, and since there was no one else talking, we were probably easier to hear…
“I think I’ll have to borrow that one. A flower that matches the woman’s name… Yes, it was wonderful!”
“I doubt you could do it, Phillip. You can’t make flowers anyway. In fact, any flowers in your care would wilt within the day.”
Nicholas chided Phillip.
Indeed, without Weed Cultivation, it would be impossible to get flowers that weren’t sold in this world already…
“Uh…this is embarrassing… So they saw everything then…”
“Oh…me too. While I am used to being watched, that moment earlier is a little different.”
Realizing that the others had seen the whole thing, Claire and I were suddenly embarrassed.
Well, I’m sure that anyone would have been in our position.
“Hohoho. You two put on quite a show. And I see that it hasn’t quite ended…”
“Huh…?”
Sebastian said with a laugh.
What did he mean by that?
And then I noticed Claire’s sweet smell and soft skin.
That’s right! We were still hugging!
“Oh!!”
We both moved away at the same time.
“That’s right…it was just so natural, I mean, I was so happy that I forgot…”
“We fit so well that…it seemed normal…so obvious and…
We turned away from each other and muttered.
Well, the real reason was probably that we were too stunned and embarrassed to notice anything else.
“Hoho. It is like you are both synchronized. How very amusing.”
“They definitely think alike. It is a good thing.”
Sebastian and Ms. Lyra declared.
The others continued to smile and watch.
It really was embarrassing…
Thanks for the chapter.
