Garrett, who escorted Rebecca, came back afterwards. He must have come in quite a hurry. He seemed a little out of breath.

    I only ever speak informally in front of a few people in my immediate circle and family. Even then, I basically use the formal, "I,". Earlier, I used a casual"I" with Rebecca, whom I met for the first time. Garrett wondered about that.

    I feel bad for Garrett, who just got a beautiful fiancée, but I won''t give Rebecca to anyone. Instead, I must …

    I was willing to give up anything to have her.

    In order for me to be with Rebecca, besides breaking off the engagement between me and Princess Aaliyah and Garrett and Rebecca, respectively, there is another, separate issue.

    That is the intention of Rebecca''s father, Marquis Howard.

    In the first place, Marquis Howard does not want his daughter to be the Crown Princess. Perhaps it is because of the ridiculous mistress system, but no matter how much I swear that I will never cheat on my wife or have a mistress, there is no way to prove it now. It is best to assume that normal persuasion would be difficult.

    Of course, it is possible to use the authority power of royalty to wrestle Marquis Howard and take Rebecca away from him.

    However, she would surely be saddened if I were to trample on her family. I wanted to avoid that.

    There was a better solution than such forceful action.
