Haunted Duke’s Daughter

Prince.

Liliane Ardis was my fiancée. She is a courtier of the Duke of Ardis family, so young that her personality seems only to think of herself from an early age. I try to get it by all means I can if I want something, a woman I can paint on my own desire.

Still, the Duke’s house, that’s also the most spoken famous of the Duke’s houses when it comes to Aldis. It wouldn’t be surprising to be chosen as my fiancée if I were to be that lady. Discussions between my father, the king, and the Duke of Ardis had determined it in my ignorance.

Maybe I’ll take advantage of this engagement to change my behavior. I had such expectations of Liliane, but I was still betrayed, as I expected.

Liliane wore a cat all the time only in front of me. Never say my best and stay quiet. But listening to others, they still said their behavior in other places had never been the same as before.

Into the school, I was distracted by a girl. A baroness named Tina Breija. I went to see the girl for some reason. I do have a fiancée, but the royal family always takes the side room too. There will be nothing wrong with that. That’s what I thought, but Liliane didn’t seem to think so. The women following Liliane began to receive reports of harassment.

And one day, I witnessed it. It happened that Liliane tried to push Tina down the stairs on the street. Fortunately, Tina was taken by other students and didn’t take care of herself, but when I saw it, I forgot me in anger.

Question Liliane and tell her to break her engagement on the spot. That’s how I went back to my room with anger in mind, and when I answered as it was because Gray, who was back in the room earlier, asked me if anything had happened.

“No, you’re stupid”

Still ruled by anger, I glanced at Gray. But Gray has been looking at me like he sees something pathetic, and that gaze has put me under barometric pressure.

“Well, it is true that Mr. Liliane’s recent behavior is overwhelming. There’s no way His Majesty can destroy a decided engagement in your presence.”

“Ah…”

Yes. The engagement was decided by my father, the king. Naturally, you have no right to discard it to me, the prince. Just report it and get angry, and half forced to take you to the royal castle, and report everything to my father,

“What are you doing? You!

Let my father shout at me. I waited for further anger, but my father said nothing more. Looking softly, my father was holding his forehead with a sinister face.

“I can’t easily bend what the royal family has said once… Not to mention, I’m in a lot of ears this time. Keep your hands around here this time, but be careful from now on…”

Back off, to my father’s word, I left the room with a little relief. I think I did something sorry to my father, but I’m not going to do anything wrong. I guess this was a good idea.

“Has this still happened…”

I felt like I heard my father say that.

Then I heard Liliane pulled a cage at home. I thought I might have just said a little too much, but I couldn’t leave that state alone. It would have been a good pill. At least the school where Liliane was gone was peace itself.

“Your Highness. Were there any other ways to do this?

That’s what Kristel asked me one day. I don’t even have to think about it.

“No. That was the best”

“But…”

“That’s terrible, Kristel”

Saying angrily at her voice, Kristel lay her eyes down sadly for some reason. Excuse me, and Kristel looked lonely somewhere as she walked away.

Did I do something wrong?

One day I heard rumors that Liliane was back. I’m just a little wary of doing anything extra to Tina again. That night, according to Tina, we became friends.

What are you up to? I just feel a little creepy.

The next morning I saw Tina at the entrance on the ground floor. I approached him to try to listen to him again, and he was talking to someone I didn’t know.

No. I looked familiar. Similar to Liliane’s face. But Liliane is famous for her thick makeup and shouldn’t do anything to expose her face.

“That’s the first face I’ve ever seen. Is that Tina’s new friend?

Speaking so, that someone breathed and was just out of line. I was wondering what’s going on.

“So, Your Highness. Are you sure you don’t understand?

“Hmm? Am I seeing you too? If you say so, I recognize you somewhere…”

I’ll explore my memories, but I still don’t know. I was wondering if it was really, really Liliane.

“Long time no see, Your Highness”

“Hmm? That voice…… No way, Liliane!?

I didn’t really think it was Liliane. If so, even though Liliane is the other person, she could have just said terrible things. But still, when they become this woman, they don’t want to apologize.

“You, what are you doing here? Are you doing something to Tina again?

“That’s not true. I was just having a little talk with Tina. Peacefully.”

Can you believe it?

This woman has had it before. I’ve been wearing a cat before me. That’s not always the case now. Why is it so easy for those around you to believe this woman?

I repeated the question several times afterwards, but the last word Liliane said somehow stuck into my mind.

“I’m not interested in you anymore.”

Liliane smiled and said so and left.

After that, Tina got very upset and couldn’t talk satisfactorily. Tina seems to think of Liliane as a friend. Again, I don’t know what that means. How can you forgive me if I said I was being harassed so much?

I’ve had the chance to talk to Liliane a few times since, but for me, I haven’t been a trustworthy one yet. Everyone says that Liliane is about to change, but all those who talk about it are those who interact with me. I just think you’re trying to raise my profile.

“That’s not true. Master Liliane is about to change.”

Crystal, who switched seats with Liliane, tells me that before class, but I still couldn’t believe it and had to shake my head silently.

But then some time later, in the exam, I was very surprised.

As the king of this country, I have been educated from an early age in what can be described as an elite talent. That’s why I’ve always taken first place in school exams, but I fell second in those exams. What a Liliane this was when I checked to make sure I had interaction with those who took first place for the future.

What the hell way did you take it? Did he even threaten the teacher? I asked Kristel for it, and she said it was strength. I can’t believe everything, but the snitches who have recently had Liliane’s neighborhood checked out said there was nothing unnatural about it with their mouths shut.

Later, when I heard and looked for Rayford, who was coming to study in this country, disappeared again, I heard from a female student that her classmate was being bullied. When I asked him his name, Ray, it was. I rushed to the scene and was very surprised.

Liliane was helping Rayford.

Liliane shouldn’t know that Rayford has contacts with me. All I know is that some people in the school, such as Glenn and Royal Secret Service, don’t even know Kristel. This will mean that you are helping Rayford, regardless of anything you have to do with me.

Really, I’m surprised. After coming here, finally, I could think of trying to believe Liliane again.

Afterwards, I managed to make a settlement with Liliane. But still, I can’t change my attitude towards Liliane. With that said, Liliane seemed to have guessed why. It would mean that you are also firmly confronted with your sins. After all, I always seemed to misunderstand Liliane.

A few days later, I sent Tina an invitation for the next nightclub, and Liliane came to the room in a squeamish shape. That was, like, scary.

I was really scared.

Even Glenn said it was the first time he thought he might just die from his gaze.

So much so that I doubted my sanity, such as when I was told to sit on the floor, but so I could understand how angry Liliane was. There have always been those who pay attention to me, but none has been so firmly angry with me but my father. I could finally understand that what I was doing was annoying Tina.

But outside the school, it would be a crime of disrespect… Well, Liliane would understand that extent right now.

Liliane is about to change. I don’t know how she’s going to change in the future or anything, but I’m going to keep an eye on her for a while. That would be my responsibility for cornering her, no matter what the cause.
