It was the season of roses, and since they were able to get first and second place in the exam thanks to studying together, Ekaterina invited Flora to come and visit the Duke of the Imperial Capital’s residence.

“Since you are all coming with us, it will be lively and fun.”

When Marina and the others heard about Flora’s invitation, they were so jealous! When she told them they were welcome to join us, the number of people who wanted to come increased, and now it was open to anyone who wanted to come. It seemed that most of the class, and even the rest of the class, would be coming along.

After all, this was the rose garden that the Emperor had admired. It was only natural that they would want to see it if they were given the opportunity.

She felt bad about burdening everyone in the mansion who had just finished a big event like the royal visit, but Graham, the butler, said with a nice smile that the Duke of Yurinova’s mansion has entertained more people than the whole class even at [small] parties, and that they were welcome to come anytime.

Amazing, isn’t it? Even after all this time.

Ekaterina’s POV

The next day, I’m supposed to meet Rev at Murano Workshop.

Yesterday, I was able to get Big Brother to buy the Murano Workshop easily, so I immediately wanted to let Rev know about it. Reporting should be done promptly.

According to Mina, who went on my behalf, Rev was more stunned than happy. Yeah! I know exactly how you feel…. I’m still in a bit of a daze too…

Anyway, by the end of the week, Halil-san’s people will contact the lenders who own the rights to Murano Workshop, and they will buy the workshop quickly. Rev will leave the Garen Workshop and return to the Murano Workshop. We’ll have another meeting on the weekend to finalize the details of the glass pen project.

…a present made in the workshop that Big Brother spent a lot of money to buy for me… That may be a bit tricky. But it would be something rare and out of this world. After the gift, Rev and I will work hard to turn it into a mass product and make the workshop profitable.

I’m starting to get busy, but I can work as hard as I want for Big Brother!

3rd Person POV

The week flew by and it was the weekend.

In the rose garden of the Duke of Yurinova’s residence in the Imperial City, forty or fifty boys and girls came and went, marveling at the blooming roses.

“The gentle breeze is filled with the scent of roses!”

Marina exclaimed, taking a deep breath. Flora and Olga, who were with her, giggled and took a deep breath as well.

“It’s really a beautiful garden. I’ve never seen so many kinds of roses in one place before. The fountain, the pavilion, everything is so elegant, it’s like a dreamland.” (Flora)

“I’m glad you enjoyed it.” (Ekaterina)

Ekaterina smiles under the parasol at Flora, who says happily.

By the way, this parasol was opened and offered by Mina as a matter of course, but I insisted on holding it myself and somehow managed to get it. It’s called a nanny parasol. Please don’t be embarrassed.

“It’s so different from my house. My yard is mostly horse stalls, so if I take a deep breath, the smell I inhale is… Hmm.”

Her brother Nicolai, who was standing next to Marina, coughed as he was hit in the throat.

“What are you going to say in such a nice place⁉︎ I should have left Big Brother in a box!” (Mina)

“Don’t talk to me like that! Mother would have laughed at you even if you’d hit her.” (Nicolai)

“It’s because Big Brother is so vulgar! You monster cat!” (Mina)
