I Shall Master This Family's

Chapter 65

"yeah? Errand? What are you doing here?"

Lulak stopped the meeting and returned to the office.

It was because the message from the Second Prince, which he decided to meet after lunch, came in a hurry.

However, it was not only Florentia and the Second Prince who were waiting for Lulak in the office.

Gallahan, who wears crutches, is also with them.

"The Second Prince said that His Majesty has something to give to father, so I came in a hurry."

"Forku?"

Lulak looked at Perez.

Since he was Perez's guardian, he would occasionally observe Poirak Palace to see how things were going.

But Lulak was not used to Perez's eyes.

Likewise, today, when his eyes met the Second Prince, he hid some discomfort.

"Your Majesty told me to deliver the message."

Perez held out a golden envelope with the short word.

“...... I didn't think it would be like this.”

"Sorry."

Perez bowed deeply to Lulak.

"Hm."

Lulak seemed unhappy with Perez, then took out two pieces of mail and read them.

Before long, a low voice came out from Lulak.

“Jovanes..

It felt like he was about to run to the Imperial Palace with a scrap of the letter now.

Lulac's eyes sparkled furiously.

Viese and Belsach are pawns they get because they beg.

and now the Emperor Jovanes, asked Florentia under the pretext of using his son as an excuse.

"Grandfather?"

Lulak opened his eyes and looked at his surprised grandson.

That innocent and beautiful face was filled with shock.

"How dare you take my granddaughter?"

It is said that the same sex can be a close friend, but the opposite sex is different

Since ancient times, the Imperial Family often matched marriage in this way.

This is a method that is often used before reaching the legal age of marriage proposal.

Jovanes could not possibly not understand it.

Of course, this was not a formal marriage proposal, and this did not determine the future of Florentia.

He was the grandson of Lulak Lombardy.

But being angry is a different matter.

“Do not worry, Galahan. I'll take care of this myself.”

He was thinking of going to the Imperial Palace tomorrow and throwing this two-piece letter in front of the Emperor.

“I'll take it.”

"…… What?"

Lulak was surprised by Gallahan's words.

“I will accept Your Majesty's proposal. I will make Tia as a playmate of His Highness the Second Prince.”

It was a bad decision.

Lulak shook his head and tried to explain.

"But Galahan..."

"I know how far this can cause trouble, Dad."

"Why then……"

However, Lulak closed his mouth.

“Yesterday I was checked again by the called doctor, who arrived late yesterday.”

At a glance, Lulak's heart was broken hearing Gallahan's calm words.

He said that doctors also diagnosed Tlenbrew disease.

The sky tried to take his son early.

Lulak who was sad and silent, suddenly looked at Florentia.

The granddaughter lowered her head.

Maybe this smart kid already knows that his dad's leg isn't just broken.

A son who cannot tell his daughter that he is dying, and a granddaughter who pretends not to know his father's condition.

Lulak's heart seemed to tremble.

Gallahan continued to speak in a calm voice.

"Some time ago, I thought when there was a storm, I could just lower myself and wait for the storm to pass, Dad. But now I know it's not the way to survive."

Lulak understood what Gallahan was trying to say, and nodded grimly.

No matter how much Lulak tried to help, he could not even get involved in what happened after his death.

“So I will fight the storm and try to protect Tia……. If you can't, I want to give Tia whatever it is, something that can support Tia, Dad.”

Lulak gritted his teeth as he watched his son prepare for his death and his daughter's future.

Lulak clenched his fists and clenched them so as not to directly curse the sky.

Then he said in a very tired voice somewhere.

"Yes. I-i know. If you want, do it."

“Yes, dad. And ...... Wouldn't that be a problem? ”

"Yes. It's just a problem. No more, no less."

Lulak said as if to calm Gallahan.

“Tia, usually dad will ask you first. But this time...…”

"I knew. Do whatever you want."

"Yes thank you."

Gallahan's big hand caressed her daughter's soft brown hair.

Lulak looked at Perez while sighing at that appearance.

"Second Prince."

"…… Yeah."

"You know that the Second Prince and the First Prince are very different."

Perez nodded.

“The First Prince has a strong mother. In addition, her mother was the Empress. ”

The Empress and Astana were safe unless they immediately committed a crime equivalent to a rebellion.

But Perez is different.

The Lombardy House served as a guard, but it was only through an agreement with the Emperor.

Even if he only made a few mistakes, it would shake Perez's position as the Second Prince.

Lulak, of course, did not worry Perez.

He wondered if this would have a bad impact on his grandson, Florentia.

"I know."

Lulak still dislikes Perez, but he has no intention of going against Gallahan's wishes.

There's only one question.

"But why was the letter torn?"

“......That's because he said Tia would get in trouble if he made her my playmate.”

"you ripped off His Majesty's letter for just one reason?"

“One reason is enough.”

Lulak said nothing for a moment, then swallowed his saliva.

“I like that one.”

Then he glanced at Perez one last time and turned around.

“I stopped the meeting and got out, so I had to go back. The Second Prince has come to my house, so rest and come back. I'll send a separate reply to the letter, and Gallahan..."

“Yes, dad.”

“You are back and rest, now ..”

"…… Yeah."

After leaving the office again, Lulak headed to the conference room where people were waiting.

Then he suddenly stopped and called out to the butler, who was following from behind.

“Ask the name of a famous doctor in the Empire and bring it here. Don't let anyone know, be careful.”

Lulak has not given up on Gallahan.

Even if it was Tlenbrew disease, he thought of making a cure for that disease at all costs

"Money is what I use when I need it."

Lulak returned to the conference room, treating his weakened heart.

* * *

Viese was walking through the hallway.

Usually, he would contact Dr. O'Malley to come to his residence, but now he couldn't wait.

Just a moment ago, he was on his way, and saw the Second Prince and Gallahan heading to the Lord's office.

He was lost for a while because he had never been there before, but he was able to find the doctor's lab quickly.

Bang out!!

The door opened with a loud noise, and Dr. O'Malley, surprised, jumped in one step.

"How did you come here, If you send someone, I'll go ..."

“Gallahan, what disease did he suffer from?”

"Yes what…? How's what?."

“Don't think of lying to me. I know that Gallahan didn't break his leg.”

Viese's words were half a bluff.

He knew and already knew that there was a commotion in the backseat of the National Founder's Supper.

However, the content of the disturbance he heard through the people was only a matter of two Princes brandishing swords at each other, and not Gallahan breaking his legs.

However, Gallahan returned to the mansion earlier than planned, and after that, he was already in recovery for several days.

Despite rumors of a broken leg, Viese remains suspicious.

“That, that ....”

Dr. O'Malley could not immediately reply and was agitated.

Viese whispered politely to calm the doctor.

“Hey, Dr. O'Malley's. Do you know everything? I asked if I could help my younger brother as an older brother. ”

The doctor hesitated for a moment but was immediately fooled.

“......Even if you know the name of the disease, there is not much you can do to help.”

"That's......Whatchu mean? What diseases does Gallahan have?"

“T, Tlenbrew disease.

All the movements of Viese stopped.

“Tlen... Tlenbrews. Isn't that a deadly disease?”

His voice was shaking slowly.

O'Malley closed his eyes as if he was returning to the day he told Lord and Gallahan the name of the illness.

No matter how bad the relationship was, even if it was Viese, it must have been very hurtful because her sister had a deadly disease.

The doctor understood it that way.

"Haha! ...... Ehaha!"

Viese started laughing.

For a long time, Viese smiled with a smile on her face and shouted.

“Langit gave me a chance!”

Like a decade's problems vanishing in the blink of an eye.

Pure joy flows with every laugh.

Dr O'Malley was unable to find the figure of someone who would soon lose his sister in a terrible illness.

“Thank you, Galahan! Thank you!" (Viese b4bi indeed)

Viese laughed for a long time, not knowing that Dr. O'Malley was looking at him with a puzzled face.

* * *

After leaving the grandfather's office and separating from father, Perez and I headed to the garden on the side of the pavilion.

Louryl went with my father to help her.

When I reached the place where the fountain was flowing quietly, I turned to Perez.

"Why are you like this?"

"…… me?"

"Yes you. Why are you so grim and speechless, and you keep looking at me?”

Perez, like the man who walked on a thin layer of ice, was very careful even with his footsteps.

And I'm worried about it.

“Because of Tia, you seem to be thinking of something. And..... About your father's condition.”

Perez is worried about me.

It was so funny that I was upset at the time.

A thirteen-year-old boy saw how I felt, and I became angry.

I took a breath and said.

“Don't worry about my father. Of course, he got a bit of a bad illness. But he'll be cured soon.”

"Do you know the name of the disease?"

Perez asked carefully.

“Tlenbrew.”

"Well……"

Perez tried to appear as cool as possible but failed.

He was worried and looked at me with a dog-like face.

But I pretended to be calm, held both hands on my back and said.

“Someone who makes a cure for Tlenbrew disease is coming. Of course with the cure.”
