Chapter 83

Noel’s kindness continued even after they came out to town.

Together, they picked out cards and found pretty colored inks to match.

“Are you sorry that you stole my card yesterday?”

If that’s the case, he should just return the card.

Why did he take it back? What was there to be ashamed of?

After choosing a card, they entered the store where the butler made a reservation and even placed an order.

To come alone with Rieta where before, he always went with his guardian . . .

Noel felt like an adult for some reason. Out of nowhere, he was conscious of his surroundings and changed his posture.

He also didn’t forget to take out the chair for Rieta to sit on.

Noel was a gentleman.

The chair was a bit heavy, so there was a screech sound.

“Thank you, you are very sweet.”

Rieta also received his kindness with an impeccable pronunciation and demeanor.

The store served warm fruit tea and cakes ordered by the butler in advance.

It was really cold outside, so she really enjoyed the warmth of the tea water.

Besides, Rietta’s cake had two strawberries on it.

There was only one for Noel.

Rieta, worried that the grumpy Noel might ask for her strawberry, quickly shoved one of hers into her mouth.

“Isn’t the princess tired of cake?”

“. . . Uh?”

“You ate cake at the party yesterday, then you ate more at dinner.”

However, contrary to Rieta’s thoughts, Noel was not happy with the cake.

Because he doesn’t like sweets. But it’s difficult . . .

Rieta decided to give him an important lesson.

“Noel, there were no strawberries on yesterday’s cake.”

“Either way, it’s still a cake. It’s also terribly sweet.”

“It’s different. It’s as different as the Kingdom language and the Imperial language. Try it, it tastes different.”

Rietta wanted Noel to know the variety and the charm of sweet things.

Because knew that the woman Noel would later fall in love with liked sweets.

“Okay, you eat.”

He pushed the cake in front of him toward Rieta.

Of course, Rieta really liked cake, so she can easily eat one more slice.

But then, she wouldn’t be helping Noel win over his future crush.

“Don’t do that, Noel should eat too.”

She tried to speak calmly, but he still looked sullen.

Rieta took off the last strawberry left on the cake, and she put it on his plate.

This is a really big act of kindness.

“I’ll give you one more strawberry. Aren’t you going to eat it?”

“Why are you giving more cake to someone who doesn’t want to eat it?”

“I didn’t give you a cake. I gave you a fruit. And to yield that is only possible with the best of friendship.”

“Best friendship?”

Noel smiled.

It was only natural that he and Rieta had the best friendship.

Good thing I was so nice to you!

He shoved the strawberry of friendship he deserved.

Was it because it was smeared with white cream? The strawberries tasted sweeter today.

“Well, it’s not bad.”

He also cut some cake and ate it.

Rieta was more relaxed.

If he ate well while he was young, he will eat well when he grows up.

It was a little bittersweet to give up the delicious strawberry.

“Here.”

But soon, a red strawberry fell on Rieta’s plate.

“……?”

“Why are you looking at me with such a blank face?”

“I was wondering if Noel had the best friendship with me.”

“Me? Why me?!”

He groaned and then quickly silenced his voice as if he was conscious of his surroundings.

“It’s just a minimal friendship, you idiot. The Princess is a member of our Duchy family. Of course I care.”

“I like strawberries on the cake. Thanks.”

“You like it? Then why are you giving it to me?”

“I wanted Noel to enjoy the cake.”

In response, Rieta added one more request.

“If Noel wants ‘someone’ to eat deliciously in the future, how about giving up the fruit like this?”

For example, you could give the female protagonist the most delicious part like this.

I’m sure she will be very impressed.

With that simple act, Noel would one step closer to achieving his love.

It’s a cool plan!

Rieta praised herself for giving her such great advice.

“. . . I just gave you one. How much more do you want?”

“Huh?”

“Anyway, you’re a glutton Princess. Do you like strawberries that much?”

“Me?”

“Yes, who else but you?”

Rieta had just taken a bite of cake, so she hurriedly shook her head to deny it.

By no means did Rieta mean that she herself wanted to enjoy such a benefit.
