After Transmigrating to Become the Daughter of a Duke, I Just Want to Pursue a Career

Silently scanning the contents of the letter, Duke Aldan narrowed his eyes slightly as he saw the short handwriting that revealed a strong will, and his expression seemed to fluctuate slightly.

"What about the rest?"

A moment later, Duke Aldan, whose expression became calm again, put the letter on the desk casually, and asked Karbas a new question in a calm tone.

As for Duke Aldan's question, Karbas, who had been prepared for a long time, quickly responded,

"Master, according to your order, most of the people on the list have been cleared, but two of them are very cunning. They have now taken refuge with the eldest lady and hid in Chris under the protection of the eldest lady."

"I was worried that forceful action would arouse the dislike of the young lady, so I had to ask people to hold off on the action, and wait until I find an opportunity to do it."

After listening to Karbas' report, Duke Aldan first snorted noncommittally, and then asked quietly in a cold tone,

"who are they?"

Facing Duke Aldan's inquiry, Karbas quickly whispered the names of the two people, and after hearing the answer, Duke Aldan waved his hand lightly and said,

"Hehe, they are very smart."

"Forget it, don't worry about it, Katerina is very short of people now, there is no need to make her unhappy because of these bad things."

Mentioning his daughter, Duke Aldan seemed to be in high spirits, and suddenly asked,

"By the way, speaking of Katerina......how is my daughter's situation now? Is she taking over the Duke's mansion smoothly?"

At this moment, regarding Duke Aldan's question, Karbas, who has always paid great attention to manners, almost subconsciously showed a wry smile,

"My lord, you don't have to worry about the eldest lady at all. The wisdom of the eldest lady is unmatched. What you should worry about is the duke's mansion."

"Currently, the eldest lady has almost emptied the Duke's mansion, but if there is any use, no matter people or things, the eldest lady will never refuse."

"If this continues, I worry that we will not have enough strength to defend the peace of Morodo City in the future."

"Hehe." At this moment, upon hearing what Karbas said, a rare smile appeared on the corner of Duke Aldan's mouth, and then he saw him wave his hand

"You don't have to stop it, it's a good thing."

After the words fell, looking at the hesitation on Karbas's face that hadn't dissipated, Duke Aldan chuckled and said a few words of comfort,

"Karbas, you don't have to worry about this, it's really not a bad thing."

"No matter how her status changes, Katerina will always be a member of the Aldan family. The most noble blood of the Aldan family flows in her body. She has the right to fight for everything that the Aldan family has."

"In addition, you don't need to worry about the safety of Morodo City. Given the current situation in the Kingdom of Florida, a weak Aldan family can give many people peace of mind."

"As long as there is no problem with Katerina, even if there are no soldiers left in Morodo City, no one will dare to violate the honor of the Aldan family."

Having said this, Duke Aldan suddenly paused as if he remembered something, and then asked again,

"If I remember correctly, Volon should be back soon, right?"

"Yes, sir." Hearing Duke Aldan's sudden question, Karbas was taken aback for a moment, and then immediately responded,

"If there are no accidents, the young master should be back tomorrow."

"That's it..." Regarding the answer given by Karbas, Duke Aldan closed his eyes gently, and then sighed,

"Since Wallon is back, my daughter must be preparing to leave~?"

"Karbas, help me prepare. I plan to go to the shore of Keluo Lake and start this afternoon."

"But, sir, you..." Karbas subconsciously widened his eyes when he heard Duke Aldan's order, and just as he was about to say something, Duke Aldan interrupted him first,

"Needless to say, go prepare. With my daughter's personality, I estimate that she will leave the Duke's Mansion the day Wallon arrives."

"I don't think she wants to see me when she says goodbye to her family, and Selina, she probably doesn't want to see me now. Instead of embarrassing everyone by my presence, it's better to go first , Leave space for them and let them have a good memory, which is good for everyone."

Having said that, looking at Karbas with a worried face, Duke Aldan smiled indifferently, then waved his hands lightly and said,

"Don't worry, Karbas, I'm not that fragile."

"From the moment I made my choice, I have seen the outcome of today."

"All of this... is nothing more than my own fault."

..........................................................

"What did you say? That old Benedict is dead?"

In the middle of the night, Katerina, who had just finished handling the business at hand, was about to go to rest, but at this moment, the maid Avril brought her an extremely shocking news......

Not long ago, Benedict, the [patriarch] of the Aldan Family's Elder Association, passed away!

After hearing the news, Katerina almost instinctively thought of the Duke of Aldan who had just left the Duke's mansion, and then she immediately asked her maid,

"How did that old guy die? Who did it?"

"Report to Your Majesty..." Facing Katerina's inquiry, Avril Lavigne calmly responded,

"According to the reports reported by his subordinates, His Excellency Benedict seems to have committed suicide."

"suicide?!"

Hearing the answer given by Avril Lavigne, Katerina couldn't help but frowned,

"Are you sure it was suicide?"

"There should be nothing wrong..." Avril shook her head in response to Katerina's doubts,

"Your Excellency Benedict has always been surrounded by our people. He committed suicide in front of our people. During this period, no one else intervened."

"As for why he committed suicide, the reason is still under investigation."

After listening to Avril Lavigne's speech, Katerina's brows became tighter. There was no other way. Benedict's sudden suicide seriously disrupted the girl's follow-up plan, and forced the girl to reconsider how to adjust the deployment of the Duke's Mansion. And this is a rather tedious process.

Finally, after a while, Katerina, whose face was full of irritability, snorted coldly,

"This old guy really knows how to pick the time!"

"Avril, you go now......"

"Boom~boom~boom~"

At this moment, just when Katerina was about to explain something to Avril, the door of the office was knocked suddenly, and then, under Katerina's slightly ignorant eyes, a small figure slipped through the crack of the door came in......

"Nana?"

Looking at her sister standing alone at the door, Katerina was slightly taken aback for a moment, then waved to her and asked suspiciously,

"It's so late, why haven't you slept yet?"

"Sister, I, I have something to tell you..." Facing Katerina's inquiry, Diana gritted her teeth, and then summoned up her courage to speak,

"I've decided, I want to stay in the Duke's Mansion!"

After the words fell, Diana glanced at her sister timidly. She didn't dare to continue until she found that Katerina was not angry because of her decision,

"Sister, I've thought about it for a long time, but I finally decided to stay in the Duke's Mansion."

"I'm not as strong as you, sister, nor as smart as you. I don't know anything. If I leave with you, I will only become your weakness in the end."

"I remember my sister said before that the Duke's Mansion of Aldan is an exquisite cage. Only birds can be trapped in the cage, but dragons cannot be trapped."

"Now my sister has turned into a dragon, and she wants to take me out of the cage to see the sky outside. I also thought about going to see how wide the outside world is with my sister, but... ..."

Speaking of this, Diana's voice suddenly took on a hint of crying,

"But I'm just a bird!"

"The cage is the bird's home, I can't fly with my sister at all!"

The next moment, seeing the girl's cries were about to continue, a warm embrace suddenly enveloped the girl, and then, a burst of gentle words rang out in the room,

"Don't cry, Nana, my sister never meant to blame you."

Hearing the comforting sound coming from her ear, feeling the warmth surrounding her, the girl's teary face lifted up slightly, and in the hazy vision, a delicate face gradually became clear from blur,

"Sister, do you really not blame me?"

"Of course not." Looking at her younger sister's timid face, Katerina touched the girl's little head, and then responded very seriously,

"A person's life is very short. Everyone has his own way to go. No matter where he chooses to lead, as long as the last moment comes and he doesn't regret his choice, that is a perfect life."

"So, Nana, you don't have to be timid about your choice. No matter what you choose, my sister will only stand by and support you."

At this moment, looking at Katerina's gentle yet resolute face, Diana gradually stopped her sobs, and after a while, the girl poked her head out of Katerina's arms, and asked cautiously again,

"Sister, you really don't want Nana, do you?"

"How is it possible?" Facing the timid eyes of her younger sister, Katerina stretched out her hand, tapped the girl's little nose lightly, then smiled brightly,

"No matter when, Nana will be my sister's good sister."

"Even if the sky falls and the earth falls, my sister's wings will always be open for you!"

ps: The plot of the Duke's Mansion is basically over here, the pits that need to be filled have been filled, and the new foreshadowing has been laid. Wait for the next chapter to close the tail, and then we will change the map. A vast world awaits the protagonist.

Finally, the author would like to ask for a recommendation.

162 158 Farewell

The next day, at noon, a simple farewell ceremony was in progress at the gate of Duke Aldan's mansion.

At this moment, looking at the sister who was staring at her eagerly in front of her, Katerina felt a slight reluctance in her heart, but soon, the girl suppressed the ups and downs in her heart, and after a soft sigh, Katerina He comforted his younger sister with gentle words,

"Nana, just send it here, my sister must leave now."

"After my sister leaves, you have to take good care of yourself. Remember to practice the things my sister taught you before. At critical moments, those things can save your life."

"Also, you are now at the age to go to the academy. After I leave, the old man will send you to the capital in a short time."

"It's different from the Duke's Mansion. The relationship between people is very complicated. The college looks calm, but it's actually very troublesome. After you go there, try to focus on your studies and avoid attending those weird parties."

"As long as I'm still alive, the Aldan family doesn't need you to sort out interpersonal relationships. What you have to do now is to study hard, read a lot, and improve yourself steadily. When you become good enough, there will naturally be people gathered around you."

"Finally, I would like to emphasize one more point......"

Speaking of this, Katerina's expression became extremely serious, and a sharp gaze bloomed in her eyes, making the girl standing in front of her shrink her head instinctively,

"Absolutely, absolutely, you are not allowed to 'fool around' with those dubious people!"

"I've heard that you are very popular among your peers now. It seems that there are a lot of people around you. After being touted for a long time, it is inevitable that you will be a little confused."
