Chapter 44
I was excited.
I used to buy pastries three times a week in my past life.
It’s not that I have a sweet tooth, but I became accustomed to having tea with something sweet between four and five of the afternoon. However, what made it more enjoyable, was to go to the shop and choose the ones that looked the tastiest. I would say it was a kind of... A reward from I to me.
If no one gave them to me, I had no choice but to get them myself.
That’s why, buying some here, made me a little happy.
’There are still things I can do here that I also did in my original world~ hehe~’
As soon as the carriage stopped, I opened the door and got out of it, completely ignoring the custom of waiting for the coachman to open the door or letting the man accompanying me help me down.
"Gasp! My– My Lady!"
The coachman said almost in dismay once he saw me. Looking back from his seat at the front of the carriage, he must have been shocked to see me get out of the carriage without any help.
Standing next to the carriage waiting for the Duke, I was too busy thinking about the sweets that I kinda forgot that I am "a Lady".
The Duke was now under the frame of the carriage door. Raising his eyebrows in surprise at my enthusiasm, he said while gazing at me.
"...I see you are excited."
