The Villainess Aims For A Peaceful Life 45 Visiting Father At Work

'What a pain'

"Do we know what they have planned?"

"They are trying to hire someone to do the job at the end of the year banquet. Because one of the n.o.bles of this group was close to Marc we were the first ones contacted."

"What you answered him?"

"I told him I would pa.s.s the word to the new boss and I will contact him once we decide"

"Well done. Delay the answer as much as you can. Pay attention if no one accept the job in the meanwhile. If the situation changes you should report ASAP, do you understand?"

"Yes Miss"

"You are dismissed "

Haa... I should meet Father and give him the report with the names of the n.o.bles.

Picking the gifts to give to Their Majesties I made my way to the Palace.

...

*toc toc*

"You can come in"

"Excuse me"

"Bunny you came to visit me!"

When Father stopped his work and looked up to see who came to him, I could see the clear transaction of a frost winter to a hot summer. The quickness that Father change his face is fantastic.

And in case you still unsure my Dear Father is soo dreamy. Although I like the way he is around me, when he emits that cold aura of his is also nice for a change. Ah, it seems I'm off the topic... what did I came here to do here? Right, the coup on the most deserving prince.

"h.e.l.lo Father, I hope I'm not in the way of your work"

"How can it be? You are the most important anyways. This things can wait for later? Do you want me to accompany you around the Palace?"

Father please stop. Your a.s.sistants are all looking at me as if I just insulted their family.

"There is no need, I came here today to discuss business"

I can see puppy ears in my father's head dropping... maybe my imagination (?)

"Is that so bunny? I thought you came to see me. Hm, you can sit down"

'Fufu~ father is so silly.'

"Of course my business is only an excuse for me to see how awesome my Father is at work. And as always you looking dashing!"

Look! The puppy ears went up! It is my imagination right?!

"Hoho. Truly the best of all my kids. Come here bunny, tell me is someone bullying you again"

When he mentioned bullying I could see a murderous flash pa.s.sing in Father's eyes. In the last incident if not the quick thinking of my knights to give Marc to the Royal Family, I'm sure that he wouldn't have a entire corpse.

'Thank G.o.d is not me, otherwise if another Marc appeared I'm sure you would wreak havoc in the capital'

"No, this time is not me. Hmm... please ask everyone to clear the room and look at this list"

After asking everybody to clear the room, Father picked up the list in front of me. After reading the list, he casted me a doubtful look

"This is a list of a n.o.ble party that is trying to forge an accident for the Crown Prince, so as to make him disabled and giving the Second Prince a rightful chance to the throne."

Raising his eyebrow at my words, Father doesn't seem as concern as I picture him to be.

"Do you already knew it?"

"I did not. But I can't say is surprising, actually I would be more surprised if they didn't attempt anything. However, I AM surprised as how my n.o.ble and pure daughter know the deal of those old geezers with the dark side of the city."

"Hehe"

Laughing sheepishly I avoided Father's sight.

's.h.i.t, I forgot I couldn't tell Father about Cerberus'

"Hm, eh, you see Father... Do you remember the guys who worked for Marc? So... His Majesty leaves their future on my hands. Hm... they now are working for me. They are gathering information so that I won't be in a disadvantageous situation anymore."

I can see a storm brewing.

"Cecile-"

"Don't worry I have Theo supervising them, and you know that I'm also training in self-defense."

I quickly got up and went to Father.

'I need to distract his attention'

After a light peck on his cheek, I started to ma.s.sage his temples.

"You look tensed Father, let me give you a ma.s.sage. Right, what do you want to do with the n.o.bles? Is better to report to His Majesty right? My guys are delaying them as much as they can"

"Your guys?"

'Can't hear you'

"It would also better to have a meeting with both princes maybe if they pretend to follow the plan or second prince pretend to have the same aim as them, we can capture them red hand. What you think?"

"Your plan may work, but I still need to discuss with His Majesty. Are you going home now?"

"No, I'm going to visit Her Majesty to give her the new product that we developed"

"Hm, I know. I'll meet His Majesty right now. Once I finish I'll pick you up. Don't think I forgot that you right now have hoodlums working under you. When we arrive home we will talk"

Sigh... I guess I'm signed for a long lecture.
