The Villainess Aims For A Peaceful Life 5 Dinner In Family

Seriously I'm not a brocon. This small nosebleed is because I hurt my nose. Yes.

We are having some seafood pasta as dinner and normally we wouldn't talk, but today we have serious things to discuss.

"Mother"

Putting her cutlery down, the woman beside me with her glossy fiery hair and sparkly green eyes look at me waiting for me to continue.

"Today the Crown Prince express his desire to break the engagement and will be probably be summoned by the King next week to discuss it"

Is my impression or the temperature just dropped? Lucius your angelic purifying face looks like the angel of the apocalypse now please stop, you should be the pure otouto to your Neesama. And Mother your Hannya mode is ON. I can even see some ominous aura around you. His Highness even if you don't deserve I will dedicate a minute of silence for your soul. Even Father trembled a bit after looking at Mother. Mom, you're seriously scary to even put the Prime Minister at your mercy with a look.

"Eh, ah, hm... Mother, although the ideal is for me to dump him we all now that this is impossible, so having a peaceful break up is the next better thing right? What I want your help with Dear Mother is to find a good future husband, as I think Mother has a good taste for man"

After all, you got married to the most wanted bachelor at the kingdom and tamed him to be your puppy, who would be at your call at any time. Mom, I must say I am your diehard fan. Please teach me all your wisdom Master.

"No wonder Prince Albert chose Julia instead of you, you didn't even break the engagement and you are already trying to hook up with someone else if you were more like Julia pure and-"

As I listened to this ridiculous preach from Elder Brother, I saw a knife pa.s.sing by his cheek and living a small cut. 3 pair of eyes are now looking at him as if they could kill him with their stare.

Seriously bro, on whose household do you think you are right now? Even if you don't agree you can just be quiet.

"If you don't talk n.o.body will think you are mute"

Translation in my head: shut up before I kill you

"M-Mother, but is the truth, shouldn't she wait a bit? If she was more alike Julia she could capture His Highness heart"

"And leave her to you, brother?"

"As if I would accept somebody like that as my daughter-in-law"

"Mother how can you say something like that of Julia?!"

Brother, I really want to remind you to not walk towards your death bed but you seem to be too stupid right now. Maybe is true that love makes us stupid *sigh*

"Ho, for her you even raise your voice against me. Let me just tell you what is her image in high society circles. A poor girl that is trying to climb someone's bed. Let us hypothesize that this is not true and she only has the type of most pure love for His Highness, care to tell me why she has so many male friends with high status? Let's hypothesize again that she maintain a pure friendship with all of you, why is it that she spend some time alone with each of you and has been seen to have close physical contact to all of you by multiple people? Let us not even enter in the part that most of them are engaged to someone else. How can you say somebody like that is purer than your sister, are you blind?"

"This is slander! Mom you should not trust those baseless rumors, I am sure this is someone who spread false rumors because of jealousy"

Even if you look at me, is not like I'm that free to spend my time building stories to ruin Julia's reputation, I have an empire to build Brother!

"Stop looking at your sister like that before I dig your eyes out. I saw her behavior with my own eyes, do you think I'm jealous and spread rumors about her too?"

"N-no I'm sure you just misunderstood the situation Mother if you could know her yo-"

Dismissing Niisama with her hand and casting him a disapproving look Mother release a critical attack

"If you think that with your behavior right now you can inherit the Duke position you are wrong. I must remind that beside you, we have two perfect heirs to this t.i.tle. Your only luck is that they don't want it, otherwise you wouldn't be the heir since a year ago"

Blank. That is the face of my brother right now. I can see the loading sign above his head. Loading complete. His face started to get really pale, are you alright? Hang in there, bro!

But Mom is right, I and Lucius can inherit the Duke and Prime Minister position if we wish to. We both have a perfect academic status and a good social network. Because he helps me in Spero, Lucius also has his fair share of beneficent work. Not to brag but we are called 'the heavenly brothers' by the commoners hihi.

Ignoring my K.O.ed brother, Mother turn towards me

"I will see that you marry someone better than that s*tty prince"

Although I absolutely agree with the prince nickname we cannot talk badly about the royalty so open, it will be bad ok?

"Yes Neesama, I will not let you marry someone unworthy of you!"

Kyaaaa! How can you be so cute Lucius? I want to pinch your cheeks so bad!

Smiling to my family minus elder brother I thanked them for their support.

"Also Mother and Father, next week I will start my business. I already have the stores bought and the factories built, I just need employees and heavy propaganda about the products and stores so I am counting on you!"

"Fumu~ It is so. I will let the ladies know, they were always very interested in your products"

"My friends all loved the teas and some novelty food that you thought of, I must let them now too"

"Neesama count me in too! I will advertise to my friends at my tutor's house"

"Thank you!"

Happy with the conclusion of our talk we all finished our dinner and left to our rooms.
