Siona Tersion

When Karhan returned, Lilia talked to her family. When she threatened not to bring him home next time, her family apologized.

Lilia only nagged moderately because she understood why they were being particularly strict. Fortunately, though, they didn’t criticize Karhan very badly.

‘When I brought Richard before, the house was turned upside down….’

Lilia, who recalled her memories of a few years ago, reflected for a long time.

A few days have passed since that day. Lilia decided to go out for a while to do business. With Francese and Malek accompanying her, as soon as she arrived in the downtown area, she headed to her first business, the bank.

Recently, assets increased significantly as profits from redevelopment came in and the Orgel store hit the jackpot. They wanted her to expand the safe, so she received a letter asking her to visit the bank and verify her identity.

Upon arriving at the bank, Lilia heard their explanation and concluded an agreement to increase the number of underground vaults by two more. Lilia suddenly wondered how much her assets were worth.

“May I know how much you have in my safe?”

“Let me check the amount”.

The employee got up from his seat and brought a bunch of documents. Counting for a while, the employee was embarrassed.

“Do you need the current amount?”

“What?”

“I’m sorry, but interest is being added in real time.”

The staff asked Lilia’s for understanding. When Lilia nodded, the employee continued to calculate the money for a long time.

‘It’s a lot more than I thought.’

It wasn’t even family property, and there were so many personal assets. The gold vein found on the site of the villa seemed to have earned this much profit.

It was Lilia’s parents who purchased the land, but Lilia received a half-share in return for her contribution. In the end, Lilia’s safe was a spring that didn’t dry up no matter how much she used it.

“Thank you very much for today.”

When Lilia left the bank, all the employees came to see her off. Once out of the bank, Lilia was lost in thought.

‘If I get more money, where should I spend it?’

It seems that she was still working hard, but the speed of entry was faster. In particular, after breaking up with Richard, overspending has decreased, and it seems to be more so than she realized.

Lilia began to walk slowly along the downtown area. Karhan naturally came to mind because it was a place she often visited with him these days. She seemed to have gotten used to being with him. While walking down the street, Lilia found a dessert store.

“Shall we go eat dessert?”

There was a chef in the mansion who won a series of the Imperial Dessert Competition, but for some reason it didn’t taste as good when eaten at home. Eventually, Lilia took Frances and Malek to the dessert shop.

After ordering a lot of what she wanted to eat, she came out to the store terrace and chatted vigorously. Unlike before, Karhan and Tession were naturally added to the topic of conversation. In particular, Frances talked about Tession over and over again. The three of them seemed to have gotten quite close.

As she was watching people passing by, a woman with red hair caught her eyes from afar.

‘Somehow I’m familiar with it.’

Lilia naturally frowned. It was because she remembered a person she didn’t want to think of. Then the woman of her observation stopped and called Lilia sitting on the terrace.

“Lilia Bloden?”

Lilia turned her head and looked straight at the woman. Looking at her again, it was a face she recognized. It was Siona, Richard’s elder sister.

“It’s been a while. I think you’ve changed a bit”

Siona looked Lilia up and down with a look she knew well. Richard and his siblings did the same thing as soon as they met. The good mood quickly sank into the mud.

Lilia didn’t like Siona. It was because she used the fact that she was Richard’s older sister to use Lilia as much as she could. She often mentioned Richard, so she had no choice but to match her pace.

“I was on my way to go shopping, follow me.”

Siona arrogantly ordered. She was acting like she was ordering her servant. As she took the lead with great pride, Lilia was taken aback for a moment.

‘She doesn’t seem to have heard that Richard and I broke up yet?’

Looking at Siona’s back, Lilia smiled coldly.

‘Yeah, we met at a good moment.’

It was time to let her know that she was no longer a pushover.

Lilia jumped up from her seat. After leaving the bill to Malek, Lilia followed Siona. After a long time, she stopped at a store selling baby supplies. She looked to see if she was showing any signs of pregnancy, and Siona briefly explained.

“I’m planning on getting pregnant soon. So, don’t you think I should get ready in advance?”

Siona got married the year before last, but she still had no children. Apparently, with nothing keeping her busy, she visited the Marquis frequently and often bumped into Lilia. Their relationship first began as she used to give advice on everything because she was married.

Siona stood at the door of the store without hearing Lilia’s answer. Then the clerk opened the door.

“Welcome.”

After seeing Siona’s face, the clerk’s expression briefly hardened. It was for a moment, but he looked sick and tired. Siona said, entering with a very confident step, as though she had not seen it,

“I’m going to buy everything I saw last time.”

The clerk’s gaze changed at once.

“Right this way.”

The clerk smiled and guided Siona. Just by looking at that, Lilia was able to grasp the situation without difficulty. Previously, Siona seemed to have grilled the clerk without buying anything. Now, having the opportunity of meeting her, she decided to buy these things.

Like a fish in the water, Siona began to wander around the store.

“I thought so. What’s more expensive than this?”

“The most expensive thing in our store is here…….”

“What’s wrong with the design?”

Even if Siona was strict, the clerk smiled and responded. It was because she declared to buy all the goods.

Siona, who carelessly touched strollers, bonnets, toys, etc., opened a box and tried using the object. Wheels were pushed and scattered.

“You have to pay for it if you open it…….”

“I said I’d buy it, right?”

The clerk shut his mouth. After a long time, Siona’s shopping was over.

“All combined…… 157,200 Croel.”

It was a huge price. It was a few years’ worth of living expenses for commoners and enough money to buy a small villa in the countryside. No matter how rich you were, very few people would have spent so much money on childcare products. They were trendy and consumable items that could no longer be used after a year.

Siona looked at Lilia as if it were natural. But as Lilia stood still, she tried to urge her.

“What are you doing? You need to pay.”

Lilia stepped forward. Siona, waiting with a satisfied face, watched as Lilia put down a luxurious rattle with jewels on the checkout counter.

“Please charge this.”

“What are you doing?”

“I’m paying for my stuff. I’m going to give it to my dog.”

Lilia replied with a smile. Siona clenched her lips for a while and then asked,

“What about mine?”

“You’ll have to pay for that.”

Siona frowned so deeply wrinkles appeared on her forehead. So far, it had been only natural for Lilia to pay for her things.

“What’s wrong with you?”

Asked Siona, nervous. Before, with just a glance, she would have paid quickly on her own, but why was she suddenly doing this?

“We’re going to be a family in the future, so the least you can do is pay for this.”

“That’s right. There’s nothing I can’t do.”

Siona was relieved by the cool answer, but Lilai added after,

“But I don’t want to be your family.”

“…..What?”

“Do I look like your wallet?”

Lilia smiled and asked again. It was a quiet tone, full of thorns. Siona, who was speechless for a while and was only standing there with her mouth open, was furious.

“Are you going to act like that while joining our family?”

Siona looked ready to run wild on the street, saying she would oppose the marriage or anything that would make Lilia think twice about not paying.

“I should tell Richard.”

Finally, a threat that she used to work often.

Lilia crossed her arms while looking at her, who knew nothing.

“You’re so close to him, but I guess you haven’t heard it yet?”

Siona paused and looked at Lilia.

“I’m going to break up my engagement with him.”

Leaving that behind, Lilia turned her back. Siona shouted to Lilia with a torn voice,

“Lilia Bloden!”

Lilia left the store right away. But before Siona, who followed her, could grab Lilia, the clerk shouted back,

“Excuse me! You have to pay!”

The clerk immediately blocked her, asking where she was going. Siona and the clerk quarreled and soon started to argue

“No, I’ll buy it next time!”

“You have to pay for the wrapping! You said you’d buy everything!”

The clerk, who was very fervent, shouted. But Siona wouldn’t be able to pay such a large amount of money. As the disturbance grew bigger, people gathered.

“What’s going on?”

“I guess she didn’t pay for it and tried to steal it.”

“You know everything.”

Lilia completely escaped the street, leaving Siona behind. Though there were problems, it was funny to see her, who didn’t even know that her younger brother had been broken up with.

‘In the end, he didn’t tell his family because of his pride….’

If so, she had no choice but to step up. So that everyone in the Tersion family knows of the breakup.
