Two Weeks later
Duchy Helemites
The man looked towards someone who was in front of him. The tallest and the families of the other relatives are now gathered.
Of course the distant brothers also want to have at least a little wealth from someone who just died.
"Tarrant is too young to lead the family" said one of the men, who looked quite old.
The man, who looks half a century, seems to open his voice first so that others can start following him.
"I think that's enough to prove his credibility, he could be one of the commanders, solve the problems in western Duchy five years ago and be close to the crown prince." cyra said that gave her support.
Although he is young and 17 years old, but he already holds the financial expenditure of the mansion which of course he can already have at least a small position.
"All young people should certainly learn and I think Tarrant also looks fit for this job." said one of the women who included the aunt of the Duchess's mother's family first who then opened her voice to her niece.
"He has a good background, right? Unlike her other sisters," continued the old woman, staring with a sharp glint at the girl who had blond hair.
Cyra knew but he let it go, there was nothing he could do to defend or give input to people who hated him.
...
"Well..."
The girl dropped herself on the soft bed, she then stared at the ceiling of her room for a moment.
The family meeting that even for her was so tiring that it made her energy as if it was depleted, she could only catch her breath and then shut down for a moment.
The baritone voice that made the girl reopen her eyes and immediately turned her head towards the man who was staring and standing near the door of her room.
"You curious? But even so you must already know how the results are not?" her question was then staring at the man who was in front of her.
"Will he be the head of the family?" ask Alessio who approached and then sit on the edge of the girl's bed.
"Yes" answered Cyra briefly without turning his head.
Alessio was silent for a moment, actually there were those who disturbed him for the last two weeks but he did not ask at all and then made him want to ask about it.
"Cyra?" call her who like to ask in her next sentence.
The girl opened her eyes and then looked towards the man who was talking to her.
"The man who came at the funeral is the same man you said he was?" alessio asked with her itchy lips to hide her curiosity again.
There was no answer, the girl was silent like that was the answer she gave out.
"You still like her?" ask the man who seemed so disturbed by things that even should not be a nuisance to him.
"I told you not to like me, right?" she asked, who then looked at the man.
"Your engagement even knows but she let you, you know? I'm..."
"Want to get rid of it, I want you to just look at me..."
