My Fiancé Was Taken By My Younger Sister, But I Plan To Get My Revenge Through My Performance at The Social Party - Episode 15

The butler and maids of the Hardwood family steadily grew. They thoroughly learned the movements from the preparation to the end of the party. Victoria carefully educated them, leveling up their skills.

Every time they held a party, they gained experience points. Although there were some minor mistakes at first, they had now become capable of handling the tasks smoothly. They had grown into very reliable personnel. Their compensation was also properly paid, and their motivation was extremely high. As a result, the reputation of the parties hosted by the Hardwood family steadily increased.

Victoria became accustomed to being a member of the Hardwood family. The Hardwood family, once said to be averse to socializing, had completely transformed. Edward was also pleased with this change. And he repeatedly expressed his gratitude to Victoria.

“Your performance was indeed beyond what I had imagined. Thank you so much.”

“If I could be of assistance to Edward, I would be happy as well.”

“Ah. It’s really helpful.”

At the party that day, local dishes made with vegetables harvested from the North Haven region were served.

“Today, we have prepared a local dish using plenty of vegetables harvested from the North Haven region. Please enjoy.”

The participants reach out and eat the various dishes served on the table.

“Shall we give it a try?”

“Yeah. It’s delicious.”

“Not bad at all. When you say North Haven, are you referring to the produce from the lands around the Silver Peak Mountains?”

“Yeah, that’s right.”

The dishes provided seemed to be very well received. It seemed they were also interested in the local area and its specialties, and Victoria thought they had a fulfilling conversation. Since their enthusiasm for the topics was wonderful, she continued to promote the local products.

“Transporting goods from North Haven is tough, but we have a lot of fresh and delicious vegetables that are hard to find in the central region.”

“Hmm, hmm.”

“I see. The investigation in that area was lacking.”

“Maybe I’ll send a merchant convoy.”

It’s not uncommon for conversations at parties to later develop into significant business deals. This time, the unveiling was very promising. The local specialties from the North Haven region seemed likely to attract attention and potentially become popular products.

The Rainford Marquess family, who govern the North haven region, were also a noble family with deep ties to the Hardwood family. Therefore, if the products of the Rainford Marquess family sell well and prosper, it will in turn contribute to the development of the Hardwood family. Taking such factors into consideration, they often decide on the food and entertainment to be provided at parties.

I want to cherish the relationships with the nobility very much. Victoria makes sure not to forget that feeling. I had a feeling that today’s party would also be a success.

“Edward-sama, I have something to report.”

“What’s wrong?”

A butler approached Edward, who was with Victoria, and whispered something to him.

Victoria could hear it too, but I focused on interacting with the participants. Apparently, there was some kind of problem, but I didn’t pay attention to it. To keep others from being interested, I diverted their attention with a different topic. Just at the right moment, the band was ready, so I instructed them to start playing.

“A new event is starting.”

“Oh, I’m looking forward to it.”

“I look forward to this every time.”

“Very cultured, aren’t you?”

While their attention is directed towards the band, Victoria approaches Edward.

“Is there a problem?”

“Ah. But I’ll handle it here. I’ll step away for a bit.”

“Yes, please.”

Edward said that and left the venue. However, he returned in about ten minutes. He seemed normal, without any serious demeanor. Victoria approached him and asked.

“How was it?”

“Ah. It’s already been resolved. I’ll talk about the details after we’re done.”

“Understood.”

Victoria, while wondering about it, decided to set it aside for the moment and focus on organizing the party.

After that, the party ended safely. Victoria and Edward saw off the nobles as they left.

Taking a breath, Victoria listened to Edward. She learned that her former fiancé, Damian, had come to the venue and caused a commotion. She also found out that he had been forcibly trying to break into the venue and had been driven away.
