Miel frowned. If he had known that Aina was awake now, he would have never allowed Rychard to enter. It was only because he thought that his daughter was still in a coma that he had allowed Rychard to come under the latter's insistence. After all, as a Vassal of the family, there was still a small bit of due respect that he owed to the potential Heirs, especially since it seemed that Rychard had taken the secure lead in this aspect.

It could only be said that this timing was horrible.

Miel didn't really care who did and didn't find his daughter attractive, he wasn't one to care about such things. The main issue was that he didn't want any undue influence on Aina's recovery.

Rychard was a very intelligent young man, he most definitely already realized that there was something off about Aina's current demeanor. Though he likely wouldn't be able to guess exactly what had happened, he didn't need to do that in order to cause problems.

Miel took a slight breath and shook his head. For now, pressing forward and rushing Rychard out would only make things seem more peculiar than they already were. He could only ride this out and hope that Aina didn't think anything too ridiculous out loud.

Though he had a weird expression on for a moment, Rychard quickly recovered once again, giving Aina a light smile.

"You've done a lot for me and I can say with great certainty that you are a large part of the reason I've almost secured the official position of Heir for myself. Since you've helped me so greatly, how could I not properly reward you? I've made sure to give you more than what you've asked for and if you need anything in the future, please don't hesitate to reach out."

Rychard's smile became more natural by the end of his words as he lightly nodded toward Yuri and Savahn before turning toward Miel.

"I appreciate you allowing me into your home, Sir Brazinger. I won't continue to intrude and will take my leave now. If you need anything, you can feel free to contact me as well."

Miel nodded lightly but didn't say much. He knew that the reason Rychard insisted on entering his estate today was because he no longer had a reason to hide.
