Ekaterina’s POV
I’m not being modest, I really mean it.
“If it were any other family, they would not have taken up my idea even if I tire my voice out to say something. It’s because Big Brother and all of you are so open-minded that you listened to my idea and saw the possibilities. And it is exactly because of your wealth of experience and the trust of those around you that you were able to give shape to my idea so quickly. Without that, my words would have been worth nothing.” (Ekaterina)
In my previous life, I was a system designer, so I know how annoying and time-consuming it is to give shape to an idea.
And in my previous life, when I was working, there were many people who wouldn’t even listen to what a newcomer had to say.
Probably, the reason why the executives who come to this office are so receptive to what I have to say is because Big Brother is so talented at such a young age, and all his chosen executives are also extremely talented. Because they are so talented, they are able to judge even the words of a young lady who has only been out in the world for a few months as suitable for her purpose.
The Duke of Yurinova is amazing. No, this talent was left to him by Grandfather, so Grandfather must be a great man too.
3rd POV
However, the executives exchanged glances and secretly laughed at Ekaterina’s words. Her words were true, but it was rare to find someone wise enough to realize that fact.
“You really are a clever girl. But this time, there was a lot of value in you coming up with something that no one else would have thought of. You also got an excellent grade in the exam. I’d like to give you a reward, is there anything you want?” (Alexei)
No, no, this life with Big Brother is my reward!
“If you’re talking about exceptional grades, you should reward it to yourself, since Big Brother has always been at the top of the class. If I were to be asked, all I wanted was to be around Big Brother.” (Ekaterina)
“Ekaterina.” (Alexei)
Alexei’s expression warmed.
“It’s because you are so precious like that, that I want to give you something.” (Alexei)
Halil and Aaron also added.
“Since you’re here, Young Lady, why don’t you prepare some more clothes. You never know, the Empress might call on you.” (Halil)
“And jewelry, by all means. Even if it’s for a bridal gift, why don’t you try to arrange something nice?” (Aaron)
“…”
Come on, come on. You can’t encourage a child to be extravagant!
At this rate, if she just let it be, he’s going to find her something luxurious instead. But she doesn’t want it! Memories are better than material things!
Oh.
“Big Brother, there’s something I want.” (Ekaterina)
“Is that so? What is it?” (Alexei)
Ekaterina giggled at Alexei’s sweet smile.
“Do you remember, the day before I entered the academy, I asked you to take a day off to see the Imperial City… Big Brother, would you like to take a day off work and join me?” (Ekaterina)
“…Is that what you want?” (Alexei)
“A day with Big Brother is priceless! Please grant me this request.” (Ekaterina)
Alexei looked puzzled, but when Ekaterina insisted, he smiled helplessly as if he had been defeated.
“Of course, I don’t mind. If that’s what you want.” (Alexei)
“I’m so glad!” (Ekaterina)
Yay, yay, yay!
A date!
With Big Brother!
So, that weekend, Ekaterina dressed up a little more stylish than usual and walked lightly to the carriage.
Alexei was already waiting for her in front of the carriage, dressed in something a little more formal than usual, and smiled when he saw his sister.
“I apologize for keeping you waiting.” (Ekaterina)
“Waiting for a beautiful woman is an honor. That’s what you taught me, Ekaterina.” (Alexei)
