Chapter 27 - Leon POV (1)

My name is Leon Alby, and I'm the heir of the Viscount Alby Household. Because I excelled in the academic subjects on our Royal Academy I am on the top 10 of our class. However in contrast I'm barely a serve in etiquette and the physical classes.

Father's always nags me how I don't conduct myself as a noble, but even if you tell me this I don't know how to do.

One day he came home with a terrifying idea: Working under the flower of the society.

Father do you know how scary her fans are? If they know I'll be dead meat. But because we need her approval first, I relaxed. I'm sure she will decline father's proposal.

I didn't got a day feeling relief though. On the same day that she received the letter she answered Father asking me to report to her company HQ the next morning. I wanted to refuse but I could never go against my parents. Owing to this fact, I encountered myself in the next morning in the gates of her office, I was welcomed by the employees present after I said the motive of my visit but after I waited the whole day I didn't even saw her shadow.

Was she just messing with Father? But if I tell him he will be disappointed. I will try again tomorrow.

Because her staff knew why I was there in the next morning I was quickly put inside. Apparently the flower was here today. I can't deny that because she didn't see me yesterday my impression of her fell a bit.

"Are you here to meet my Miss?"

"Yes, my name is Leon Alby, she asked me to come"

'I'm not here because I want to ok'

"Wait a moment"

As the cute girl in maid outfit enter the office I wondered if I would be refused and how would I explain to Father.

"Miss will see you now. Yesterday Moss has to open one of the stores and couldn't come. Was my neglect that forgot to warn you not to come. I'm truly sorry Sir Leon"

'So that's why'

"That's ok"

"Please enter"

The door opened and I could see a girl with her glistering emerald eyes looking attentively at me.

"H-hello, Miss Flower, no Miss Cecile, I'm Leon Alby, I came to report for work"

S*it I got nervous with her look, I even called her flower! This is all Father's fault!

"Hello Sir Leon, please sit down. May I call you just Leo?"

This smile is foul! How can a person be this beautiful

"Y-Yes! It would be my honor Miss Cecile"

"Ok, so tell me Leo, what is it that you specialize on?"

Yes I should focus on my objective here. I can't be lost in her beauty

"Well at our Academy I am really in good in all subjects besides the ones involving physical activity and social interaction. Although I am not bad on those, it's barely average."

"I see. The position that I thought of is my secretary, what you think? I'll drill all my knowledge of social interaction in you but you must be up to challenge. Do you agree?"

I of course agreed. Although I don't know if I can really be of use, I came to learn all that I can from her. Finishing our talk she gave me a pile of documents to go through.

As I went through I was surprised of how detailed and accurate the reports were. Did she made them or did the people under her did? Either way it only proves that the girl in front of me is amazing in more ways then one.

Not long after we started the maid came back with some weird snacks.

'What the hell is this?'

But because she seemed eager to see my response I couldn't refuse.

"!!!!"

'What is this? Is so good'

Apparently this is one of the products that the staff of IP developed.

"Miss Cecile you are amazing! When all the girls of the kingdom are worried about the Royal Banquet two days from now, you are very relax about and focus on you job!"

Yeah, while all the kingdom is turn upside down because the ladies are worried about what to dress this incredible woman is expanding her business.

"Repeat that"

'Did I say something wrong?'

"Miss is amazing"

"After that"

"The ladies are worried about the social banquet?"

To all the reactions that I thought she would have I never expected that she was thinking on how to promote her products. Not only will she wear it she proposed that my family also did. Truly different from other women.

As such, me, my Mother, Miss Cecile and Duchess Dubois went to the factory to choose our attires.

The factory was huge. I discovered that IP has a variety of products and as I inspected more my admiration for The Flower grew.

"Leo, come help me with something"

"Yes Miss, what do you want?"

"I'll try this dresses and you will tell me which one do you prefer. Sit here I will not take long"

Not sure I'm the best person, but your wish is my command.

When she went out of the fitting room I could her a 'BOOM' inside my head. My throat dried, my temperature rose, my heart was beating like crazy and I felt my nether part starting to swell. If this was not embarrassing enough I felt something wet leaving my nose.

'What is this enchanting'

"Quickly stop the bleeding. I will try the other one. Take some cold water meanwhile."

Miss Cecile gave me her handkerchiefs and turned back.

Aaaaah so embarrassing I want to quickly find a hole to hide.

But just as I started to relax, she left the fitting room again. Aren't you too quick? Embracing myself I looked at her.

And just like that my mind went blank as my soul flew away,

"What you thin about this one?"

"Goddess"

Ah I said it out loud!

"What?"

"Ah? No. Hm... your are really beautiful. But I cannot choose between them as you're s-stunning on both of them."

In the end we chose the blue one for the banquet. I gave her a lousy reason that she accepted, but the truth is that I can't have her using that red dress in front of anyone else besides me. I have a month to convince her not to use it in her mother's birthday.

You would have thought that I would become immune since I already saw her once but the same scene repeated again once I saw her ready.

I guided her to our carriage as my heart beat so loud I was afraid that Cecile could hear it.

In my confused state we went together to the banquet
