Chapter: 280

But Astelle, without looking at him, handed the sandwich to her grandfather who was sitting on the other side.

“Have something to eat, Grandpa.”

“Okay. Thank you.”

Kaizen slowly lowered his hand.

“……”

‘Tch.’

It was a very sad and embarrassing scene.

Vellian, who watched his master’s pitiful appearance, truly sympathized with him.

He carefully offered the meat pie to Kaizen.

“……Your Majesty, please eat this.”

“No need.”

Kaizen didn’t even touch the food and drank only the wine that Vellian poured in.

The four adults gathered at the picnic and silently ate their food.

They just felt uncomfortable around each other.

Kaizen and Vellian were still awkward with the Marquis of Carlenberg, Astelle and Kaizen were a divorced couple, and Vellian and Astelle were……

Astelle didn’t want to deal with Vellian for as long as she could after he threw her into the public bath and looked through her clothes and belongings.

They were uncomfortable with each other, and there was no common topic of discussion.

Naturally, there was only an uncomfortable and heavy silence in the tent.

“This is really delicious. Can I have another one?”

Amidst the silence, only Theor was eating happily.

“Yes. You can eat as much as you like.”

Theor ate the whole sandwich and the meat pie that Vellian gave to him.

A sweet pie filled with savory juices melted in his mouth.

“Oh right. Have you met Sir Seibel at the ball, Lady Astelle?”

It was Vellian who broke the uncomfortable silence.
