Sierra and Cassius met on a small walkway outside her residence.

'Where should I start?' (Sierra)

First, let's start with a light cough to refresh the atmosphere.

"Cough, cough." (Sierra)

"Did you catch a cold?" (Cassius)

Cassius' friendly, low voice, facing her, stuck in her ear. The knight immediately rushed in and put a shawl around her shoulder.

"Where did this shawl come from......' (Sierra)

Sierra was scared of adapting to this overprotection. She decided to say the words that Cassias had been looking forward to.

To put it mildly in a more intimate tone, wouldn't Cassius listen to her now?

"Can I come with you to your duchy?" (Sierra)

Of course, the purpose was somewhat impure.

Cassius lowered his eyes. He strode to the very front of Sierra.

"......Yes." (Cassius)

Cassius slowly tucked her hair behind her ear, puffing out a heavy sigh. The ear that had been touched with his hand strangely tingled.

"Let's go right now." (Cassius)

His voice was needlessly good......

Sierra coughed one more time before answering him.

"Aren't you curious to know why I'm going?" (Sierra)

"Whatever the reason is, you're coming with me." (Cassius)

......He really didn't seem to be curious. Wouldn't that be serious?

Sierra carefully opened her mouth.

"You know, there's a reason why I'm going to the Duke's." (Sierra)

"What is it? Tell me." (Cassius)

"Hippo Kingdom's medical staff have developed a paternity kit. Three months is enough to figure out whether or not one is a blood relative." (Sierra)

Cassius, who noticed what it meant, gritted his teeth and murmured.

"Hanael, you and me......you want to do a paternity test?" (Cassius)

"Yes, because she's not your daughter." (Sierra)

The paternity test would take a long time, but it would be fine.

"If the paternity test turns out she's not your daughter, I don't think I'll be penalized, because I kept telling you the truth." (Sierra)

It was the most important problem.

However, contrary to Sierra's careful statement, Cassius only laughed in a low tone.

"Sierra." (tl: hubby is terribly pissed owo) (Cassius)

His expression became more sinister. Sierra felt a little sleepy.

"That's not very important." (Cassius)

No, why was he so scared? (tl: i had a hard time determining who was scared coz some translation used she while other used he *cry*)

Sierra smiled forcefully and pretended not to doze off.

"I'll do everything you tell me to. So......" (Cassius)

"......" (Sierra)

"Don't run away from me." (Cassius)

Sierra scratched her forehead, half-asleep.

Actually, she had never ran away before, but anyway, he indeed did everything she said......

"Well, don't worry, I will never leave until the paternity test is over." (Sierra)

Sierra smiled brightly. Of course, Sierra's 'bright smile' was based on her standards. Now, Sierra looked somewhat grim and pitiful.

In fact, the impact of Sierra's appearance was......

Some of the most sensitive knights standing nearby took out their handkerchiefs and wiped away their tears......? (tl: and the misunderstanding grew bigger lol)

Unfortunately, the situation seemed to be the same for Cassius. He clenched his teeth quietly and murmured.

"Then when will we leave?" (Cassius)

Oh, it was going so fast that she couldn't even think of adjusting the schedule for when to leave.

Sierra, narrowing her eyes, whispered in a quiet voice.

"Umm......I don't know when it will be possible. I need to find a new pharmacist to take care of the pharmacy for the time being, and I need to clean up my house......it will take a while." (Sierra)

It would be beneficial for Cassius and herself to finish the paternity test as soon as possible. She whispered to herself quietly.

"It would be better to do it as soon as possible." (Sierra)

Cassius, who was listening to Sierra's voice, laughed subduedly. She looked puzzled because she didn't understand why he was laughing. Then Cassius, who looked at Sierra, whispered softly into her ear.

"All you have to do is get your things ready to take away." (Cassius)

"......" (Sierra)

"You're coming......" (Cassius)

Cassius murmured in a menacing tone that seemed to overwhelm her.

"It's natural that I have to take care of the rest." (Cassius)

......Wasn't he being too serious?

If the paternity test would say that he was not the father......Would he cry?

She felt like she would be going to have another drink at the Duke's.

It felt even more ominous, but Sierra nodded slowly.

Yeah, well.

We'll be able to break up safely in three months!
