The Lady Who Was Rejected with 'I Love Someone Else' Turned Out to Be the Strongest Sorceress – The Fate of the Prince Who Abandoned Her and the Lady Who Found Freedom - Episode 4

After finishing all the preparations to annul the engagement, I visited Prince Alfred’s room to report to him.

“The preparations for the procedure have been completed, so I have come to report.”

“Finally done, huh? It was just preparation, but it took quite a long time.”

Still saying it. It’s become such a hassle to point it out that I’ll just ignore it. Since this is the last time I’ll have to hear it today, I can endure it.

Prince Alfred probably doesn’t understand how much effort it took to proceed with the annulment of the engagement. Despite all the trouble taken to settle things as peacefully as possible.

I don’t even feel like explaining. More than that, I just wanted to finish it quickly.

“By the way, about the woman named Vanessa whom you chose as your new fiancée――”

When I tried to ask, Prince Alfred interrupted.

“Don’t worry about that. We’ll take care of it from here.”

“……I see.”

Just in case, I wanted to understand the situation, but you won’t tell me. Well, once the annulment of this engagement is complete, he and I will be unrelated. As long as there’s no harm on my side, it’s not a problem.

“With this, our relationship is completely over.”

Exactly. Hearing those words finally made me feel a weight lift off my shoulders. But it’s not over yet. There are still important tasks remaining.

“With this, we need to widely inform all parties about the broken engagement. The method of announcing the broken engagement is――”

“It’s okay. Leave that to us.”

Prince Alfred, brimming with confidence. He had a strong determination to absolutely do it himself. Why, after having always passed it off to others?

I have a bad feeling about this. But the other person is a prince, someone in a higher position than me. If they’re this motivated, I have no choice but to leave it to them.

I really don’t want to, but it seems I have no choice but to leave the presentation method up to him.

“How do you plan to make the announcement?”

“Well, you’ll understand when the time comes. Until then, I can’t tell you.”

“…Why?”

“For confidentiality. So that no one leaks the information.”

“……”

Being told that, I felt a slight shock. I don’t think he noticed, but it felt like he was talking about the fact that I had told Prince Edgar the circumstances. I can’t push any further.

Having finished the conversation, I left Prince Alfred’s room. Anyway, a big task was completed. I felt relieved. Although, there’s still a bit of anxiety left.

When I left the room, there stood Prince Edgar, the Second Prince.

“Eleanor, have you finished preparing the annulment of the engagement?”

He smiles gently.

“Yeah, somehow.”

“However, you seem a bit anxious.”

“……Yes. Actually, I was curious about the presentation method.”

I also conveyed the earlier conversation to Prince Edgar.

“Then, I’ll look into it on my end too. If I find out anything, I’ll let you know.”

“Is it okay?”

“As I said before, I want to help you. I’m glad if I can be of use.”

Thank you very much. You are very reliable.

After all, I felt encouraged by his words. His presence is such a great support for my heart. Once again, a feeling of gratitude wells up inside me.
