A divorced evil lady bakes cakes - Chapter 19

Chaptet 19

‘It was originally a unruly kid.’

As soon as he was born, Calix lost his mother and a year later his father.

It is said that both of Calix’s parents, were friends of the prince

.

The Grand Duke died guarding the Crown Prince on the battlefield.

The prince made it his adoptive son, saying that he would take care of the son of his  friend.

If it were another noble family, there could have been a backlash. However, there was nothing much wrong with the Grand Duke because it was originally a family separated from the royal family a few generations ago.

If the royal family was cut off from the royal family anyway, it was also a family that could inherit the throne.

However, two years after Calix was adopted, the prince also died of illness.

Kalix grew up spoiled by his  Majesty, who became grandfather by adoption.

When Erin first went to the Imperial Palace, Calix was 13 years old. He was curious by new family was curious, so he kept chasing Erin and bothering she.

‘I could still bear it because it wasn’t swarming or grumpy.

Whenever he smiled cutely, he  followed Erin around all day, saying, “What are you doing, sister-in-law?” “Hey, sister-in-law, what are you doing?” “Hey, sister-in-law, play with me.” “Do you want some cake?”

Even if I refused and told him to go, I didn’t feel sorry for anything, or  he continued to laugh and follow me..

Honestly, it was very annoying, but since the child was so bright and cute, it was not annoying even though I was suffering so much.

For example, it’s a clear annoyance.

‘But if I had done that for all 9 years, it would have been so annoying that I couldn’t have lived…’

Fortunately, thanks to the emperor’s drying up, Carlix did not pursue Erin a few months later.

Not to the extent that he didn’t chase after what he said and how he stopped going to the royal palace.

‘It disappeared so suddenly that it was a bit sad.’

Soon afterward, calix left the Imperial Palace to learn to rule his territory. After that, they didn’t come to the capital very often, so Erin and calix didn’t have much opportunity to meet.

“Why don’t you go to play somewhere else?”

Erin quietly said that it was often to go to the nobles’ play area, and Calix replied, biting a small teaspoon in his mouth, as if complaining.

“It’s not fun to go anywhere else. I’m really bored of talking.”

“You’ll be the only one in the Empire who says that.”

The nobles preferred the capital, which had a luxurious socialite, over the boring rural estates.

Living in the capital cost several times more than living in the countryside, but most of the nobles did not leave the capital all year round.

Of course, Calix was an exception. Calix always stayed in his estate.

Calix frowned.

“The capital is boring. Every soiree, party, prom…… My estate is a hundred times more enjoyable. There’s no one to bother you there.”

“That’s right.”

Erin easily agreed.

In fact, this young Grand Duke was almost like a king in his estate.

Grand Duchy of Royten was out of the emperor’s authority to the point that it could be called an independent state.

Nevertheless, in that no sanctions were imposed, I could see how great his Majesty’s affection for this cute grandson was.

Thanks to that, there are rumors that the successor might change, but it was absurd.

Erin quickly collected the desserts on the tray before they ran out.

“Where are you going?”

“I am going to move it to the store and come back.”

Erin picked up the tray and said to Calix as she left the door.

“If you want to try something else, there are pre-made cookies on the cupboard. You are eating it.”

It seemed that Calix was trying to say something, but it seemed that he couldn’t finish the job anymore, so Erin quickly closed the door and came out.

Today was a holiday in the store.

It was a day off, but I had to make some foods and prepare them in advance so I couldn’t do business.

Suddenly, the number of customers increased, and I was so busy that I could not take a rest day.

‘Today I have to make a Sachertorte, which the lady from the Rabantz ordered.

The day I had to bring the cake was tomorrow.

Since it is a rule to finish the ordered cake the night before or the morning of the day, Erin went into the store, thinking that he had to go buy the ingredients as soon as it was set.

In the store, Melly was sitting in a pile of materials.

“Erin.”

“Melly, how are you doing?”

Melli sat down with craft materials such as cotton, plaster, clay, and paints, making a model of the dessert to display in the store’s window.

Shape and color with plaster or clay, and finally, with a transparent nail polish applied to the nails, the texture of the sparkling syrup is expressed.

It seemed difficult, but the finished macaron looked quite plausible.

“Well made. It’s real. Certainly, Melly has good dexterity.”

To brew tea and drip coffee by hand, it was necessary to have good dexterity and meticulous personality.

Erin thought that Melly would be good at making drinks, so her dexterity would be good, but it was as expected.

“Hehe. In fact, macaroons were the easiest. You just need to get the shape and color it.”

Erin put Crème Brulee in a glass cabinet and picked up a jacket.

Melli, who was making a pie with plaster, saw her and asked.

“Where are you going?”

“I will go to Bayard Street to buy the ingredients for the cake ordered.”

Erin closed the door and disappeared. Melly was still wrestling with plaster to make a model in the store.

Calix, left in the kitchen of the two-story house, was looking through the small window, looking at the garden in the afternoon.

Green vegetables were seen against the blue sky.

‘It’s a peaceful place.’

It was a small and cute place. A small shop and a toy-like two-story house are attached with a garden in between.

Yesterday, I was here to watch, but as soon as I came, I saw a strange sight. Erin is angry and sarcastic in front of a violent man.

‘I’ve never seen you so angry..’

Erin, seen from the imperial palace, always looked quiet and lonely. I couldn’t meet often, but every time I met, she became more and more depressed.

Calix sat down and waited for Erin. The cookie Erin said was not even touched.

However, no matter how long he waited, Erin had no sign of returning.

Calix waited a long time for Erin and got up from the seat. Then I passed the garden, opened the door and entered the store.

“What about your sister-in-law?”

The maid, who was making a lot of things, got up in a hurry and answered.

“Erin-nim went to Bayard Street to buy ingredients.”

.

“this time?”

“Yes, she has to send the cake by tomorrow.”

calix looked at the dark sky through the window, then opened the store door and went outside.

Raymond looked out the window of the carriage.

The sunset was setting in the afternoon sky. The setting sun colored the serene scene of the capital red.

The streets in the evening were busy. There was hardly anyone in the street where the wagon was passing.

Raymond stared out the window and frowned.

It has been a week since I was ordered to bring Erin in person. However, he hasn’t even contacted Erin yet.

In the meantime, the emperor did not meet Raymond and refused business requests several times.

It was clear that he was insisting that he would not do anything if he did not listen to the order to bring Erin himself.

“Now come and bring her back, what do you mean?”

Raymond muttered annoyingly. Jade, sitting face to face, advised anxiously.

“Your Majesty, you must not disobey Your Majesty’s orders anyway.”

Raymond looks out the window of the carriage. He looked annoyed and answered.

“I didn’t say I was against it.”

It was obvious what the emperor was thinking. You want to take Erin back and reunite with Raymond.

However, since you can’t put pressure on Erin’s, you’re hassling Raymond.

Raymond recalled the last time he met Erin.

What I want is to run a dessert cafe and never see your Grace again.

Erin clearly said so.

‘It’s a dessert shop.’

I thought it was because ahe was angry, but Erin was really setting up a cafe and doing business.

They even circulated incredible rumors of making their own food.

‘No way, it won’t.’

After a sigh, Raymond turned to Jade.

“Where did you say her shop was?”

“It’s on Biltrout Street.”

Raymond pondered for a moment before ordering.

“Go there.”
