Chapter 224
Inside the office where there was silence and bright sunlight shining in, there was only the sound of moving pen *scratch scratch* and the sound of the clock that sounded like a chirping bird *chirp-chirp-chirp-chirp-* resounding.
It was a really calm place that was optimum for doing paperwork.
But, the owner of that room was in a state that couldn't be said as calm at all. The hand moving the pen didn't stop, but it was only her gaze that kept glancing briefly at the clock many times over, she then looked at the mountain of paperwork and sighed, then her shoulders dropped after measuring the height of the paperwork……she then started reducing the mountain of paperwork diligently, got fidgety, and got dejected……
「Liliana-sama……I understand your feeling, but no matter how many times you checked the clock, the time won't progress faster you know?」
「-, I, I'm not, worrying about anything you know?」
「No, I'm not fooled at all. Because you are already fidgety like that.」
Liliana moaned「Uh」having that pointed by her exclusive maid.
「Today is the day your beloved husband can cross over here isn't it? Starting from that "Kouki-kun is abducted too many times- Case", demon king-sama seemed to be busy with various things and got dragged into turmoil, so it has been five months since he can properly take time to meet you. That's why, isn't it fine even if Liliana-sama doesn't force yourself to do your duty just for today?」
「I cannot do that. If I shirk off my duty by using that person as excuse, then there will be no meaning to my resolve that decided to be left here in this world.」
