"Just kidding, you don't have to look so stiff."

Ludmila smiled, waving her hands.

"I was just joking because she was so cute."

"Oh, I see."

Evelyn nodded with relief.

Ludmila folded her eyes, eyeing Bianca.

"Hello, my name is Ludmila Tessa."

Ludmila asked, looking at the confetti scattered on the table.

"Are you learning origami?"

"Yes, Uncle Lay taught me!"

It's Uncle Lay.

Ludmila glanced back at Islay.

You're gonna let Bianca call you "Mr. Ray," while your sixth cousin sticks to the title "Duke"?

"Paper boat, would you like me to fold one?"

"Oh, will you?"

Excited Bianca began to fold the paper boat.

Whether it was worth teaching Islay himself, Bianca's touch was childish.

After a while, the paper boat was finished.

"That's a good fold."

"Right? There's nothing Bibi can't do."

Islay, who was being praised by Ludmila, slipped a comment.

Listening to the voice of pride as if she were treating her daughter, Ludmila squinted.

"I don't even like children that much, for some reason..."....'

Anyway, Evelyn's work was a joke.

Thinking so, Ludmila took a sip of Affogato.

"Everyone, I had a great time today."

After a long chat, Ludmila greeted the people she sat with.

"Lady Martinise, I'm sending a carriage on the morning of tea time. Do you think it'll be okay?"

"Of course. Thank you for your consideration."

Evelyn was slightly silent.

Ludmila, who greeted her with a bow, looked back at Bianca for the last time.
