The Young Lady Tames the Main Leads

“You’re telling me to throw this ribbon away?”

“Yes. If you want a red ribbon, you can order the maid to get one. There’re so many better ribbons, so why are you keeping this filthy thing?”

Even though he only pointed out the truth, Ninaina didn’t say anything.

It was really strange. If it was usual, Ninaina would have listed multiple reasons why she should be keeping this ribbon, but why was she keeping her mouth shut?

The answer was, Ninaina, herself, did not know either.

Why she was so happy after coming back from the kindergarten.

Why she couldn’t throw away this worn out ribbon.

“…Just because.”

As a result, Ninaina just answered honestly.

Just because.

…

Meanwhile, there were two children in the grand duke’s family carriage.

They were none other than Cedric Bedmon and Alice Rose.

Even though Alice was a duke’s daughter, she didn’t own any family carriages, so Cedric had to ride his carriage with Alice every time he had to go to the kindergarten. It was because Alice and Cedric were engaged by their families before they were born.

“Ugh, what do you mean by fiancée. I can’t believe this.”

After stealing a glance at Alice who had fallen asleep while leaning against the window, Cedric complained and sat crookedly by raising his legs on the chair for no reason.

He had to go down to the house of Duke Rose to drop Alice off, so there was still a long time before arriving at home.

If he had to be honest, he was bored.

His fiancée Alice Rose was someone so boring that he wouldn’t have made her a friend, let alone a fiancée. It would have been better if it was someone that had a bad temper like him so that they could at least fight.

She barely answered once or twice if he tried talking to her ten times; but now he had to travel to and from kindergarten with this boring child! Cedric felt like he was going to go crazy.

Furthermore, it had only been a week since they met, but father gave an order of ‘Alice is your fiancée so you have to take good care of her.’

Of course Cedric was someone who wasn’t going to listen even if the head of the family pleaded while giving him money, so he had long forgotten such order.

But it was too boring for him to not do anything.

He felt like he had to wake this boring Alice up and talk to her in order to release his frustration.

“Hey.”

“…”

“You, wake up.”

“…”

Cedric called Alice with a loud voice, but Alice kept on leaning against the window and sleeping without flinching one bit. She was deep asleep. While holding something tightly in her arms.

‘What is that?’

He didn’t realize it before because he wasn’t paying attention, but the thing that Alice was holding was none other than a bag of caramel. It was the thing that Emir Saeron shared with everyone a few hours ago in the kindergarten.

‘Why haven’t she eaten it yet? Is she like taking care of it or something?’

Cedric frowned.

Though thinking about it… that caramel, it was rather yummy.

In fact, it would have been a lie if he said he didn’t regret saving it after he ate everything at once.

‘Maybe I’ll ask her for some.’

Opportunely, Alice’s eyes softly opened as the carriage shook. Cedric groaned and asked.

“Hey, Alice Rose.”

“…yes?”

Alice stared at Cedric with weariness in her eyes. To be honest, Cedric didn’t like how Alice acted. She was already very timid, but she kept using formal language. Why does she keep using it?

“I told you to use informal language. Why do you keep using formal language? It’s awkward.”

But Alice still didn’t give a reply to Cedric.

‘Ugh.’

Cedric, in the end, gave up on holding a conversation with Alice. But instead, he decided to ask her for some caramel

“Okay, i’ll let go of that weird formal language for now. Aren’t you gonna eat that? If you are not gonna eat it, you should give it to me.”

But something amazing happened.

“…No. This is something Young Lady Emir gave me.”

This was the first time Alice expressed herself to Cedric. And it was an informal refusal at that.
