My Fiance Is The 2nd Male Lead
First dinner after one week

For the first time in a week, Suiren finally returned to eating with Kyrie. The two did not say anything to each other, they simply enjoyed the dishes served in front of them.

“You know, what happened to Tia could have happened to me.” Suiren said as he looked at Kyrie with a gloomy face.

“As long as you go everywhere with Sergei, I don't think that's going to happen.”

“Are you still not going to do anything about this?”

Kyrie looked at Suiren. “I have ordered the Knights of Birmin City to quickly investigate this matter. Whether or not they succeed depends on their abilities.”

Suiren then scooped the soup in front of him limply.

“Do you know who Lady Iris's lover is?” ask Kyrie.

“No. He hasn't told me. I don't think he trusts me too much. I mean, we've only been friends in a matter of weeks.”

“After talking with Earl Iris, I got the information that the day before Lady Iris was found lifeless, she asked permission to go to her vacation home in Alora.” Kyrie. “But he was never rumored to arrive at Alora.”

Alora was one of the small towns in the northern region of the empire, located at the foot of the mountain and the weather there was perfect for people who wanted to get away from the frenzied fatigue of Birmin City.

“So, you feel that the key to this case may be located in the hands of Tia's lover?” ask Suiren.

Kyrie nodded while sipping the in her cup.

“I actually feel that Sir Naois has a relationship with Tia.” Answer Suiren.

“Why do you think so?”

“Entahlah. Just intuition.”

Kyrie put down her cup and hooked her fingers. “It looks like you're wrong.”

Suiren gave Kyrie a curious look. “You know something?”

“Sir Dianthus will marry the second daughter of Marquess Narcissus. So of course she's not Lady Iris' secret lover.”

Suiren nodded his head. Now he was ashamed to have asked Sir Dianthus a strange question.

“He must have thought me strange..” Mumbled Suiren.

“Hm?”

“I asked him if he had any relations with Tia, without knowing the fact that he was Lady Narcissus' future husband.”

“It looks like there's nothing wrong with that, you just asked right?”

“I'm glad you started talking to me normally again.” Kyrie said with a smile.

Suiren replied to Kyrie with a smile.

“Omong-by the way, this letter is coming from the Capital.” Kyrie reached into something from her pocket and took it out. An envelope with an imperial family seal.

“Serena?” ask Suiren. He reached out his hand to grab the letter Kyrie was holding.

Kyrie nodded.

Then Suiren rushed to unseal the letter and read the contents of the letter.

“To,

Suiren Themisree

I miss you so much. I heard from your father that you are currently in Birmin with Duke Wisteria. I hope you're okay there.

I'm fine here, although it seems like the other candidates are trying hard to get me to leave and give up the competition. But I won't do what they want. I will compete well and correctly.

Then, I want to tell you a lot about the Crown Prince but I cannot pour everything in this letter. I hope we can meet soon!

Warm greetings and love, please,

Serena Tagates.”

Suiren found herself grinning as she read the letter from her best friend. He was one hundred percent sure that Serena would easily pass all the obstacles in front of him to win the competition. Because it was his destiny to win the competition. She misses Serena so much. Also Father. Reina's. And Gilbert.

“In one month, there will be a hunting race held by imperial family.” Kyrie. “Do you want to go with me to the Capital?”

Suiren looked at Kyrie with a strange look. “Of course? You don't have to ask about that.”

“I don't want to force you and make you feel uncomfortable.”

“Pfft!” Suiren laughing. “Going to the Capital to accompany you is my duty as your fiancee.”

Kyrie then smiled gently and looked at the old Suiren.

“What?”

Kyrie. After that they spend the night telling stories of things they experienced for one week not seeing each other.
