Reborn As Noble

Chapter 243 A Day of Sightseeing ( 243 )

Javier stood outside, tapping his foot impatiently. ”Liaaanaaa! Letʼs go!”

From inside, Lianaʼs voice called back, ”Coming, Young Master!”

However, before she could leave, Gloria arched an eyebrow, crossing her arms. ”Hmm? Where are you two going, Liana?”

Liana sighed, glancing at her. ”I donʼt know where he wants to go… but he already got permission from Lord Garius.”

Gloria tilted her head, a smirk playing on her lips. ”Ara~ Is that so?”

Liana nodded before turning toward the door. ”Now, if youʼll excuse me—”

”LIAAANAAAA!!!” Javierʼs voice echoed impatiently from outside.

Liana rubbed her temple, exasperated. ”Haah… Wait, Young Master!” She hurriedly finished her conversation with Gloria before heading out.

Meanwhile, outside, Javier pouted, fidgeting atop Buddy. ”Heee… whatʼs taking Liana so long?” Growing impatient, he climbed down from Buddy and stomped inside.

”Lia—” The moment he entered, his amber eyes locked onto Gloria, and his mischievous grin instantly returned. ”Oh~ Gloria!!”

He lunged forward, exclaiming, ”Chuuuu!!!” as he planted a quick kiss right on her lips. Gloria returned the kiss effortlessly, her lips curling into a teasing smile. Leaning in slightly, she narrowed her warm amber eyes playfully. ”Young Master? Where are you going this early with Liana?”

Javier stepped back slightly, grinning. ”Oh, nothing! Just sightseeing around our region. Not going that far.”

Gloriaʼs eyes gleamed with amusement. ”You two… going on a date?” She narrowed her eyes suspiciously.

Before Javier could respond, she gasped dramatically. With exaggerated grace, she pretended to stumble backward. ”Oh~ Young Master…” She clutched her chest as if heartbroken. ”Youʼre enjoying her company while leaving me here~”

Covering her face with one hand, her voice dripped with mock sorrow. ”Alone… ohhh~ so cruel~!”

Liana sighed, rubbing her forehead. ”Gloria… stop being dramatic.”

Gloria peeked between her fingers, a smirk on her lips.

As Javier and Gloria continued their playful drama, a familiar presence approached. Francesca, accompanied by her personal maid group, noticed the commotion and paused, tilting her head slightly.

Her warm voice carried over. ”Hmm? Honey bun?”

Javier froze mid-snicker, slowly turning. ”Y-Yes, Mother?”

Francescaʼs gaze softened with curiosity. ”Where are you going?”

Javier scratched his cheek, grinning. ”Just sightseeing… hehe…”

Francesca hummed, her sharp eyes flickering with amusement. ”Oh…? Youʼre going with Liana?”

Javier nodded eagerly. ”Yes!”

Francesca glanced at Gloria, who was still in her dramatic pose. ”Hmm… Gloria? Whatʼs with the—”

Before she could finish, Gloria swooned dramatically, placing a hand over her heart. ”Oh, Madam~! Your youngest son~ is playing with a maidenʼs heart~!”

Javier chuckled, while Liana sighed again. Francesca raised an eyebrow, covering her mouth as she laughed. ”Oh my, what a troublesome boy Iʼve raised.”

Her smirk deepened as she watched Javierʼs reaction. Tapping her chin thoughtfully, her sharp gaze turned to Gloria. ”Hmm… since the roads arenʼt entirely safe…” A smile spread across her face. ”Gloria, youʼll go with them today.”

Gloria blinked, surprised. ”Hmm? You sure, Madam?” She gestured vaguely toward the estate. ”I still have a lot of work today.”

Francesca waved a hand dismissively. ”Donʼt worry about it. Your assistant will take over today.” She glanced at Javier, amusement flickering in her eyes. ”Like he said, itʼs just ʼsightseeing,ʼ right? It wonʼt take long.”

Gloria grinned slyly, tilting her head. ”If you say so, Madam~” Then she turned to Liana, smirking.

As soon as Francesca walked away, Liana turned toward Gloria, her emerald eyes narrowing. She crossed her arms. ”You played that well, Gloria.”

Gloria smirked, her amber eyes twinkling with mischief. Leaning in slightly, she lowered her voice so Javier wouldnʼt hear. ”Oh my~ I just wanted to join you.” Her lips curled as she whispered teasingly, ”Right, first wife?”

Lianaʼs eye twitched slightly. She sighed, rubbing her temple. ”Youʼre impossible…”

Meanwhile, Javier was already climbing onto Buddy, completely oblivious. ”Liaaanaaa! Gloriaaa! Hurry up!”

Gloria giggled softly, straightening up. ”Ara~ Letʼs not keep our Young Master waiting, hmm?”

Liana sighed again but climbed onto Pikko. Gloria gracefully climbed up behind her, wrapping her arms around Lianaʼs waist and resting her chin lightly on her shoulder, smirking.

”Young Master?” Gloria called out.

Javier, already seated on Buddy, turned his head. ”Hmm?”

Gloriaʼs eyes sparkled playfully. ”Perhaps today… youʼre finally keeping your promise to get me a Pekko?”

Javier blinked, then his face lit up. ”Ohh!! Thatʼs right!” He grinned mischievously. ”Letʼs go meet the old man in the village!! Ehehehe!”

The Pekkos squawked loudly, kicking up dust as they sped down the path toward the village.

As Pikko dashed forward, Gloria leaned in closer to Liana, her breath warm against her ear. She whispered teasingly, ”Donʼt be that jealous, Liana. You already agreed to this arrangement, right?”

Liana tightened her grip on the reins slightly. Her voice remained calm, but her tone was firm. ”Just because I agreed… doesnʼt mean you have to disturb my ʼdateʼ today.”

Gloria chuckled softly. ”But youʼre lucky. Always with him. Everywhere.” Then her voice dropped to a whisper. ”Even sleeping together…”

She sighed dramatically. ”What about me?”

Liana exhaled slowly, shaking her head. ”Haaah…” She chose not to respond further, focusing on the road ahead.

Meanwhile, Javier was completely unaware of their conversation, lost in his own excitement.

As Pikko dashed forward, Gloria leaned in closer, her lips just beside Lianaʼs ear. Her voice was low and teasing. ”You should at least allow me to join and accompany him once in a while.” Her grip around Lianaʼs waist tightened slightly. ”You know… like a true wife?”

Lianaʼs eyes remained focused on the road ahead, but her fingers twitched slightly. Gloria continued, her tone playful yet laced with quiet longing. ”Youʼre lucky. You get to accompany him everywhere he goes.” Then, with a small sigh, she added, ”After all, you are his favorite. Youʼre a lucky girl, Liana.”

Liana shook her head slightly, a knowing smirk curling her lips. She whispered back, ”Like I donʼt know you keep slipping into bed and sleeping next to him when Iʼm already there?”

Gloriaʼs eyes widened slightly. Liana glanced at her from the corner of her eye, smirking. ”Did you really think I wouldnʼt notice?”

Gloria pouted playfully. ”Hmm? But you have him all day—itʼs not fair.” She leaned in closer. ”Not just the day… the night too.”

Liana sighed, shaking her head. ”Weʼre just sleeping together.” Then her voice softened. ”You know our Young Master canʼt sleep without me next to him.”

Gloria huffed lightly but didnʼt argue. Instead, she simply smirked. ”Then I guess Iʼll just have to wait for my turn~”

Liana sighed again, but deep down, she knew Gloria wasnʼt going to stop anytime soon.

Meanwhile, Javier glanced back at the two women behind him. Liana and Gloria were whispering to each other, their heads close together, their expressions unreadable. Javierʼs eyebrow twitched. Something about this felt… suspicious. He narrowed his amber eyes. ”Oi… are you two… plotting something?”

Liana immediately straightened, her expression calm. ”No, Young Master.”

Gloria smirked mischievously. ”Ara~ What could we possibly be plotting, Young Master?”

Javier squinted harder, rubbing his chin. ”Hmm… I dunno…” He pointed a dramatic finger at them. ”You two are definitely up to something!!”

Liana sighed. ”Young Master, youʼre overthinking things.”

Gloria giggled, resting her chin on Lianaʼs shoulder. ”Maybe weʼre just discussing how adorable you are when youʼre clueless?”

Javier crossed his arms. ”Hmmm… sounds fake, but okay.” He turned back around, still feeling suspicious. Something felt… off. He had been watching Liana and Gloria closely for the past few minutes as they rode behind him on Pikko. They were whispering, leaning too close, their voices too soft, and their expressions? Suspicious.

Javierʼs eyebrow twitched. Then his mind started racing. Wait… hold on… could it be… theyʼre actually into each other!? His face darkened as his imagination ran wild. He pictured Liana and Gloria holding hands in secret, giggling while whispering sweet words, and sharing a long, dramatic hug under the moonlight.

Javier shook his head furiously. ”Oi.”

Liana and Gloria looked up. Javier stared at them, his voice low and suspicious. ”You two… arenʼt secretly into each other, right?”

A beat of silence followed. Then—

”NO!!” Both Liana and Gloria shouted instantly, almost in perfect sync.

Lianaʼs face turned slightly red. Gloria blinked rapidly, waving her hands. Javier narrowed his eyes, rubbing his chin. ”Hmmmmm… you answered too fast.”

Liana sighed, pinching the bridge of her nose. ”Young Master, please donʼt say weird things.”

Gloria crossed her arms, pouting. ”How rude, Young Master! I like men!”

Liana gave her a side glance. ”…That didnʼt sound convincing.”

Gloria gasped, looking betrayed. ”Liana!! Not you too!!”

Javier snickered, watching them bicker. Then he grinned mischievously. ”Ehehehe… I dunno, you two seem really close… maybe I should give you some alone time?”

Liana immediately flicked his forehead. ”Young Master!”

”Ouch! Okay! Okay!. Jeez, I was just joking! ”

Gloria giggled, resting her chin on Lianaʼs shoulder again. Then she smirked. ” But if I was interested, Liana is quite lovely, donʼt you think?”

Liana sighed deeply, already regretting this entire trip.
