How can things be so perfect?

 

Charlotte who suffered death and became the destined person, the assassins who changed direction to the Earl territory because it was the furthest from the capital, and Theo who instinctively moved to the Lannia area to look for the right person.

 

Knowing the original story, Charlotte noticed strange things happening to Theo, so she went to visit the saint.

 

It was cool to say that the coincidence coincided with the coincidence.

 

Is all of this god’s order?

 

‘It’s no coincidence that I met Theo, but this was necessary?’

 

The question about Rosito and the right person is now resolved, but there is another unresolved question.

 

However, the answer to this question may not be known at the moment.
She will probably never know for the rest of her life.

 

Suddenly the thoughts ended, she thought she had heard all the necessary explanations.

 

“Thank you for your explanation.
Thank you.
I think I got all the explanations I want to know.”

 

“I’m glad this was helpful.”

 

Carcel followed her, folded his elbow and extended his right arm to her.
Charlotte put her hand on his arm and he escorted her outside.

 

Meanwhile, the night deepened, and the hall grew darker, when she was about to go back to her bedroom, Charlotte glanced at Carcel’s door.

 

‘If it is not a coincidence that I met Theo, it is inevitable….’

 

Was I bound to meet you? Why did I show up in front of you half a year before meeting the heroine, Penelope?

 

I still don’t know the answer to that.
So, instead of thinking about it any further, Charlotte put the question in a corner of her head, a corner she’ll never remember again.

 

***

 

It’s been several days since the maid search was conducted.
Officially, it was reported that Ellie retired to care for her sick brother.

 

Charlotte did not ask Celine how it was dealt with Ellie.
I thought it was best not to know.

 

Instead, Celine told her that Theros Mercenary Guild was behind this.

 

The current leader of Theros was a northern barbarian who had been subdued last year.

 


These plundering barbarians crossed the mountain range every winter to plunder the imperial people’s food and kidnap women.

 

The person leading the subjugation squad at the time was Carcel, so he said he had a grudge against him, and he was targeting Theo.

 

In addition, after visiting the temple, nothing dangerous happened to Theo.

 

There was no raging mana and there was no irrational accident.
Apparently this was the blessing effect.

 

‘Is Theo okay now?’

 

There were no longer assassins, and the world did not intervene in the killing of the child again, as in the original story.
In this way, he would be able to grow safely.

 

She’ll have to wait a little longer to find out, but Charlotte decides to open her heart up a bit.

 

Now, Charlotte’s remaining goal was to learn how to control the child’s mana, hoping that the child’s mana would stabilize.

 

Then, when Penelope appears, she will agree with Carcel to break up the marriage and return to Lannia’s estate.

 

However, she still had some doubts.
Charlotte looked at the hand that the saint held.

 

‘Two threads, one cut and the other tied.’

 

Teresa advised her that it was never possible to know when this thread would break, but Charlotte was not able to pinpoint the matter.

 

As she did with Theo, she never knew if the shadow of death would be cast on Charlotte, and she never had an accident.

 

For the past three years since becoming Charlotte, her life has been healthy.

 

‘I even met Theo.’

 

It was fortunate that Theo was safe, but there was a sense of hesitation in her heart.

 

I grabbed my hand and opened it, but suddenly I heard a surprised voice from behind.

 

“Why? Did you cut your hand?”

 

Charlotte gently shook her head to Irina, who held her head like a squirrel.

 

“No, I think I got a little cocoa powder on my hands.”

 

The Charlotte, who was wiping her clean hand, was looking at the handkerchief.


 

It was the handkerchief that Emma handed to her.
The Duke’s crest was embroidered on the finest fabrics, soft enough to be felt by the touch of her hand.

 

Even with this small thing, she felt like she was part of the Heinst family.

 

But Charlotte looked at this handkerchief and remembered her familiar handkerchief.
It is a handkerchief embroidered with the traditional patterns of Lannia lands while being tough in texture.

 

Apparently she handed it to Carcel at the time of Sir Heather’s funeral.

 

‘He hasn’t said anything about the handkerchief since that day.’

 

He said he would wash it, but he hasn’t mentioned it since then.

 

It’s a secondary thing, but with his personality he can’t have forgotten….

 

‘Well he’s been very busy.’

 

Carcel had been so busy these days that he didn’t have time to stay in the mansion.

 

A month later, he, Theo and Charlotte are due to leave the Heinst estate because he has to do the work he has to do in the capital then.

 

‘It’s okay, it’s not that important.’

 

It’s not precious, she could have made another one.
She only remembered him when she saw the handkerchief.

 

‘But I think this has happened before.’

 

This may have been two years ago.
Now I’m trying to trace my dark memories.
But Irina, who kept looking at her, said:

 

“My father want to apologize to Miss.”

 

“Irina’s father? Why?”

 

“At that time I heard he almost hit you with a broken wooden sword.”

 

“Ah….”

 

Charlotte remembered that the owner of the broken wooden sword at the time was Sir Anderson, Irina’s father.

 

“No, it was an accident.
I’ve heard it happens a lot of times.”

 


“That’s right, but the miss almost got hurt.
If you get hit then….”

 

Irina shuddered slightly, perhaps this was just awful just imagining it.

 

“But I’m fine because the Duke has protected me.”

 

“That’s right! I heard that!”

 

Irina smiled shyly.

 

“I heard the Duke protected you.”

 

Can I say I was the one who protected Theo? Charlotte wondered briefly about Irina’s choice of words.
In the end she can say that he has protected her, but the words sound somewhat familiar.

 

Charlotte smiled awkwardly and scratched her cheek for no reason.
In Irina’s head, everything about Carcel and Charlotte seemed to lead to “romance”.

 

Even if it wasn’t Charlotte who nearly bumped into the wooden sword cat, Carcel would have knocked the cat off already.

“Sister!”

 

It’s time to change the subject to another one because the atmosphere has become awkward.
At that time I heard a cheerful child’s voice from behind.

 

She turned and saw Theo running into the garden with all his might.

 

The boy’s face and clothes were covered in dirt, he was playing with the dirt.
I think I should take him to the bathroom immediately and give him a bath.

 

“Mom !”

 

A boy with brown hair and blue eyes ran behind Theo’s back.
It was Danny who took after Chase and Irina.

 

Danny’s clothes were also stained with dirt.

 

“Theo, did you have fun with Danny?”

 

“Yes!”

 

Charlotte wiped Theo’s cheeks with a tissue .

 

Theo, who was enjoying Charlotte’s touch with his eyes closed, slipped into her arms as soon as she opened her hand.

 

Thanks to this, the dress became dusty, but Charlotte didn’t blame him and put the water bottle over his mouth, he was panting like a puppy.
Theo swallowed cold water.

 


Similarly, Danny who was wiping his face with a tissue emptied a glass of water.

 

Theo smiled.
Charlotte noticed that Danny was putting cookies in the hands of Theo, who was still excited.

 

Danny was sitting on Irina’s lap and chattering, and he was as beautiful as Theo.

 

The blue eyes were cute because they looked like his mother, and they were round.
He was smart, brave, and very similar to Irina.

 

Above all, Theo and Danny got along really well.
They roamed the garden as if it was their own playground and did not quarrel.

 

Charlotte patted the hair of Theo, who was eating cookies with one hand and serving cookies to his friend with the other.
Theo’s hair was damp from sweating.

 

“Would you give cookies to your friend? Theo is cute.”

 

“Danny, you should say thank you to Theo.”

 

“Thank you!”

 

  

“yes!”

 

Theo smiled happily when he saw Danny eating the biscuit.

 

Charlotte looked at the two children happily and suddenly compared Theo’s physique to Danny’s.
Danny’s physique was slightly larger than Theo’s.

 

To be precise, Theo is younger than Danny.

 

Theo was slightly younger than his peers due to frequent illness.

 

‘He should eat well, so he can be taller.’

 

Charlotte remembered Theo’s diet so far.
Thinking about it, Theo didn’t have many meals.
He liked snacks instead of a full meal.

 

Charlotte gently grabbed Theo’s hand, who was walking toward the snacks.
Theo looked at her and blinked slowly.

 

“What ?”

Give me this .
I want to eat this.

Charlotte tried to turn a blind eye to his face whose thoughts were so clear.
If she didn’t, I thought she might give Theo snacks with both hands.

Instead, she smiled at Irina.

“Thinking about it, it’s almost lunchtime.
Why don’t we eat instead of snacks?”

What the kids had to eat well weren’t these snacks, but well-prepared meals with five major nutrients.
