I Fell for the Temptation of the Evil Crown Prince

Chapter 31



I’m Scared of My Late First Love (9)

Despite Lancelot’s resistance, he ended up wearing Rowena’s dress and a wig. He resisted wearing a wig, saying that it wouldn’t matter what color his hair was, but none of the knights listened to him.

“Breathe in! You have to pull it closer! My Lady’s waist isn’t this big!”

“You’re going to kill me, argh!”

As the two knights held on to Lancelot, Pina relentlessly pulled the cord of the corset. The knights seemed to be dying of laughter in Lancelot’s face.

“Well, don’t worry. I’ll keep this a secret today. Hehe…”

“Ahem. Your Highness threatened to reduce anyone’s salary and demote him if he spoke about today.”

After they disguised the knight as Lady Adelia, they returned to the royal carriage.

His Highness had disguised Lady Adelia as his maidservant and rode her back on the imperial carriage. All that was left were the emperor’s knights, Lancelot, and Pina who served Lancelot and kept him undetected.

“Yes, they… We’ll see, uh…”

He couldn’t even breathe because of the corset. Lancelot gritted his teeth and stared at his colleagues, then turned his head and glared at Pina.

“Do you really have to do this?”

“I have to put on makeup next, so be prepared!”

Make-up…? Lancelot felt dizzy.

“I don’t have to put on makeup because I’m wearing a veil anyway…”

“I have to do it! An accident could blow the veil! I’ll dress you up till you don’t recognize yourself, so take it!”

Lancelot was unhappy, but he had no right to disobey. Listening to his colleagues’ giggles, he put on his dress first under Pina’s watch. This was to prevent the makeup from soiling the dress.

Why am I doing this…!?

The injustice hit the sky, but the crown prince had already decided, so he could not refuse. Lancelot looked at Pina approaching with a makeup kit in her arms, waiting for the death penalty.

Until he climbed the carriage at the theater, Cecil acted calmly, but when he climbed the carriage, he suddenly changed.

“Y-your highness!”

“Your foot, it’s uncomfortable. I won’t kiss your feet, so stay calm.”

Rowena was the only one who climbed the carriage with him. As soon as the door of the carriage closed, Cecil lifted Rowena and sat next to her, and took her shoes off her feet.

He had already been told by a healer where Rowena had been injured. After hearing from the healer, Cecil regretted not breaking Paul’s right leg.

“But…”

“If you let me, I won’t peek at your skirt. Won’t you prefer just putting your legs on my thighs? But I can’t even put you on top of me.”

Rowena put her legs on Cecil’s thighs and sat comfortably. Her cheeks were flushed in embarrassment. Cecil seemed very happy about the situation.

It was Cecil, who couldn’t wait until their engagement ceremony.

If Rowena wasn’t injured, this situation would have just been a happy one.

Cecil looked to see if the cushion was properly supporting Rowena’s back. Rowena felt ashamed, while Cecil’s heart rejoiced.

“In many ways… Thank you for everything.”

“I hope that feeling of yours will continue. I’m going to continue to do something that you’re grateful for.”

Rowena did not ask Cecil what he did with Paul. Seeing that he didn’t speak first, he didn’t seem to be dead or had lost one of his limbs.

It would be difficult to side with him even if he was a father to her because he was quite foolish and brainwashed by greed. Rowena had a nanny who cared for her, and she was able to develop her self-reliance to this extent.

I’d be happy to have my nanny around me.

She didn’t die. If she worked at the Count until retirement, the Count needed to give her a large amount of severance pay and retirement guarantees so Paul cut her off early.

He wasn’t paying her severance salary!

Also lucky, he couldn’t steal the money she had saved. It was thanks to Rowena’s notice in advance. Her nanny packed her money and left the count and lived well with her sons and daughters in her hometown.

“Rowena, I’m thinking of arranging the bedroom for the crown princess for you.”

“N-no!”

Cecil smiled at Rowena’s frightened expression.

“Do you want to sleep in my room?”

Why is that even a choice?!

Before she knew it, Rowena held a cushion in her arms like a shield and stared at Cecil as if she were wary.
