Reborn As A Duke's Daughter
Go to the palace

A few days later, Audrey returned and left the destroyed cave. Jefford went straight to Audrey after her assistant told her that Audrey had returned.

The sound of footsteps rang out from upstairs, Audrey stared up at the stairs waiting for someone to come down. Jefford hurriedly hugged Audrey "Are you okay? Dad is worried about you suddenly disappearing "Audrey returns Jefford's embrace and wins him over.

" I'm fine "Audrey lets go of Jefford's embrace, looks at his father's disheveled face and then breathes out "I'll go back to the room first. Then I'll see Dad after, there's something you want to talk to me about, right? " Jefford nodded, watching his daughter's back move away.

" There will soon be academy registration. I will enroll and graduate anyhow "soaking up and enjoying the warm water that slowly feels cold after coming into contact with her skin. Given her father's seemingly chaotic appearance, Audrey smiled faintly. After a long soak, Audrey put on casual clothes and headed for Jefford's study.

Upon entering Audrey saw the butler chatting with Jefford. Seeing the arrival of Audrey the butler's permission to retreat, passing Audrey and glancing at her then smiled. Audrey felt the strangeness of the butler, but ignored her for now.

" It looks like Dad didn't sleep properly these few days "looked at the black eye bags in his dad's eyes. Jefford simply smiled faintly "Not a big deal. When you disappeared I was so worried, I told the knights and servants to look for you, but not to find you. I'm glad you came home and didn't get hurt in the least "Jefford breathed a sigh of relief.

" Dad" looked at Jefford seriously "Daddy really wants to marry that woman? " Audrey wants to confirm her father's decision, although in the original storyline Jefford will marry Angela and the protagonist is born. Jefford silently seemed to think, after Audrey disappeared for a few days Jefford felt his decision to remarry was not good, and it hurt his daughter only wayangnya.

" no. Dad won't marry her. I realized I was in too much of a hurry to make a decision without thinking about you. Besides I still love your mother "Audrey smiled at my Dad's reply, "If you want to remarry I don't care, I'm lonely anyway. If there's a woman you love someday, please tell me first. As long as it's not the widow's woman, I think it can still be considered "

Jefford chuckled at Audrey's "Daughter Dad's very kind "please and proud of Audrey's more mature thinking and concern for her. The stiff atmosphere that existed in both was immediately replaced with warm suana. " Dad, I heard that there will be registration to enter the academy, can I apply? " Jefford initially wanted to refuse, but seeing Audrey Jefford's gaze sighed and nodded.

" I'll make you a letter of recommendation "Audrey nods happily and hugs Jefford. Shortly after Jefford's assistant knocked on the door, after Jefford allowed him to enter, the assistant delivered a letter directly from the palace. Jefford read it at a glance then put it back, the assistant was permission to resign.

" What's it all about? " Audrey looked curiously at the letter. " The king asked you to be the playmate of the fourth prince, his age is not much different from yours by only a few months. You want to take it? Otherwise I'll turn him down "Audrey thinks for a while, considering Arcel is also a prince but not considered.

Audrey felt like refusing but thought back there might be benefits she would get from this. ' Making friends with members of the royal family may be beneficial. Anyway I have to hide Arcel until he reaches adulthood ' Audrey nods "Well I want to, I don't have to turn him down "

The next day, Audrey goes to the palace of the princes using a royal carriage that specifically picks up Audrey. The palace of the princes is to the right of the main palace where the King and Queen are.

Audrey walked down a long hallway that directly faced the direction of the royal garden, guided directly by the butler in the prince's palace. The butler kindly told me a little about the fourth prince, so that Audrey would have no trouble getting along with him.

" The fourth prince can be said to be quite arrogant but he is an honest child. The fourth prince preferred to express himself directly without thinking of others, and the type who was not good at lying. This was the first time the fourth prince had a friend arranged by the King, he had no friends all this time "

Audrey looked back and walked towards the tea table where the fourth prince was sleeping. Silently sitting looking at him, the prince's golden-brown hair moved due to the gust of wind. Audrey faithfully remained waiting until the fourth prince woke up.

" Huh?! Whoareyou?! " surprised because when he woke up in front of him Audrey was already sitting while looking at him.

" Your Majesty introduce me to Audrey Celeste Darold. Her Majesty the King asked me to be your playmate from now on "Audrey politely says hello. The fourth prince kicked the table, Audrey was a little surprised by her loud voice.

" O Father told me. Didn't think you'd come today "nodles. " It's because I'm not busy today "replying with a friendly smile.

" So if you're busy you won't play with me even if I call you? " Audrey nodded. " What are you busy with? I'm the one who should be more busy, I'm the prince "somehow his tone shows pride.

" I know you're a prince. But I'm busier than you noble "Audrey answers as is.

" I don't care?! When I want to play with you you have to come even if you're busy. You mustn't ignore my command "smile proudly.

" I want to ask you. Actually the King asks us to be playmates, as friends there is no such thing as an order, then you do not consider me a friend but a subordinate? " the fourth prince was silent, he seemed to think.

" It's not like that, but ughh forget it. I wouldn't consider you a friend "Audrey wants to laugh hearing that answer 'Basic tsundere' shook her head and smiled understandably.

" I've introduced myself, now it's your turn "Audrey

" Don't you know? I am the fourth prince in this Kingdom "looking at the bewildered Audrey. " Yes I know. But it would be great if you introduce yourself directly, I would feel happy and honored "

" all right. I'm the fourth prince, my name is Yuiko Jian Fairuz "Audrey nodded "Good to be friends with you "after which the two kept quiet. Just enjoy tea with biscuits without any conversation.

" Can you play with a sword? " prince Yuiko asked curiously. Audrey nodded "Yes I can, you want to duel? the sparing? " prince Yuiko thought, "Are you sure you can? Women playing swords? You won't even be able to swing a sword "

" How about we try? " prince Yuiko smiled lightly "OKay "
