Reborn As Noble Chapter 1166: Gloria’s Graceful Formality ( 1166 )

Meanwhile.

Javier’s private quarters.

Felicia perched opposite Gloria on the sofa, absorbed in her reading, while Delya lounged on the extended couch displaying her habitual dreamy grin, cradling a massive pot of chocolate.

Gloria, positioned on the other end of the sofa, set aside her book and checked her mana watch.

Ara~ Over an hour has passed already.

Young Master and Liana ought to have finished by this point.

I think it’s time I went to see how they’re doing~

There’s no chance I’ll allow Liana to get all the enjoyment again~

Once he takes Mimi as his own, perhaps we can share those tender times without having to rest in separate beds?

“Felicia~ Delya?” Gloria whispered gently, a mischievous grin curving her mouth.

“Yes, Gloria?” they replied together, lifting their eyes toward her.

“I figure Liana and Young Master have wrapped up. Shall we head over to Young Master’s private workshop as a group?” Gloria cocked her head and beamed, pushing up her glasses.

Felicia shot a look at Gloria, then squirmed a bit. “Um... are you certain... we ought to... what if they’re still... in the middle of it...?”

Gloria let out a light laugh. “Well... I’m aware our husband has great endurance, but I doubt they’re continuing, not unless Young Master’s relying on some stamina enhancer, which I believe he wouldn’t. ”

She grinned and adjusted her glasses, seeing Delya and Felicia remain unsure. “Alright then... I’ll have to proceed by myself~” Gloria mentioned as she rose leisurely.

“We... we’ll come along!” Felicia jumped up quickly.

Delya gradually rose, set the chocolate pot down, got to her feet, smoothed her skirt, and grabbed the pot once more. “Feeling idle and eager to catch sight of Danna-sama, I’ll tag along, Gloria. ”

“Excellent. ” Gloria brought her hands together elegantly before her and moved to the door, a subtle sly smile hidden on her face.

I absolutely won’t permit Liana to enjoy too much on her own~

After exiting Javier’s room, the trio strolled leisurely along the corridor.

Gloria spotted Marcellus and Cedric advancing further up, trailed by several attendant maids.

She halted, pressed her hands neatly before her, and dipped into a courteous bow. “Good morning, Prince Marcellus, Prince Cedric. ”

Marcellus and Cedric stopped in their tracks, shared a quick look, then shook their heads simultaneously.

“Gloria... you’re on track to be our sister-in-law. No need for all this ceremony, in our view. ”

Cedric agreed with a nod. “We’re essentially family already. Feel free to ease up with us. ”

Gloria rose straight, a faint smile touching her lips as she fixed her glasses. “I’m grateful for that, Prince Marcellus, Prince Cedric. Sincerely. ”

She angled her head a touch, her look earnest. “With all due respect, Your Highnesses, protocols serve their purpose. Until the marriage rite concludes, I feel it’s fitting to uphold them. See it as my regard for your ranks, and for the household I aspire to formally enter. ”

Marcellus and Cedric let out sighs before offering warm smiles to her, Felicia, and Delya. The attendant maids trailing them rested palms on their left breasts and inclined slightly in greeting.

Gloria nodded back before continuing. “If I might inquire, Your Highnesses... where might you be bound this morning? ”

Marcellus released yet another gentle sigh, a trace of fatigue flickering across his face. Cedric simply smiled next to him.

“The regular routine, Gloria, ” Marcellus answered. “Father has called for us. ”

Cedric kept his relaxed, carefree smile. “Likely yet another assignment. No details shared with us so far. ”

“Ah. ” Gloria offered a slight nod, shifting her glasses upward. “Understood. ”

Marcellus peered beyond her, scanning the hall. “On that note... where’s Javier? Odd he’s not sticking close to you. ”

Cedric surveyed the area too, a sly grin forming. “Indeed, that’s out of character. Normally he hauls his whole entourage wherever he ventures. ” He laughed lightly, eyeing Gloria with teasing delight. “Parading his ladies to everyone he encounters. ”

Marcellus smirked. “Reminds me of Father. He loves making sure everyone knows he’s surrounded by five stunning women. ”

Gloria smiled, folding her hands neatly in front of her servant attire. “He’s occupied with a task, and Liana is... helping him out. He’s in his private workshop at the moment. ”

Marcellus raised his brows suggestively as Cedric emitted a quiet chuckle. “Occupied with a task, eh? Heh~ ”

Gloria dipped her head with an informed smile. “Yes, Your Highness. ”

“Well... ” Marcellus looked at Cedric, then back to Gloria and the rest. “We should get moving. Father won’t tolerate delays. ”

Cedric nodded, grinning. “Right, better not keep Father hanging. We’ll head off, Gloria. ”

Gloria bowed again, the gesture smooth and refined. “Naturally, Your Highnesses. I hope your discussion with His Majesty goes smoothly. ”

She held the bow until Marcellus and Cedric had passed by and departed the vicinity, then resumed along the corridor with Felicia and Delya trailing silently after her.

Felicia gave a gentle smile. “Gloria? ”

“Hmm? What is it? ” Gloria kept her pace slow and poised down the hall, her footfalls delicate and refined.

Felicia spoke in a soft, appreciative tone. “You manage to keep that courteous manner, despite their suggestion otherwise. ”

Gloria shifted her glasses, wearing a contemplative look.

“Though the Armand lineage differs from typical noble houses or the Human Kingdom’s monarchs, showing due deference is essential in a dignified home like theirs. Of all human aristocrats and rulers, the Armands alone truly cherish honor, devotion, and real concern for their subjects. That merits admiration, regardless of our growing familiarity. ”

Delya beamed dreamily. “I concur. It warms me to realize Danna-sama belongs to such a lineage... and that I’m among his chosen women now. ”

Gloria grinned and lifted her hand, collecting her hair to form a tall, sophisticated ponytail. “Anyway, let’s make our way to the private workshop and rejoin our husband. ”

“Mm... alright, ” Felicia replied with a tender smile, staying near Gloria.

“Yes~ I’m eager to reunite with Danna-sama~ ” Delya exclaimed, embracing her chocolate pot with her characteristic dreamy smile.

Right before arriving at the primary entrance, Gloria stopped, set her palm on her left chest, and bowed elegantly.

“Sir Alf. ”

Felicia and Delya positioned themselves behind Gloria, dipping their heads modestly. Even as royals from foreign lands, they sensed a touch of discomfort in Alf’s imposing aura.

“Good morning, Princess Felicia, Princess Delya. ” Alf responded before positioning himself with hands linked behind his back, his eyes moving to Gloria.

“Gloria? ”

“Yes, Sir Alf? ” Gloria corrected her stance, holding herself with poise.

“Where is Prince Javier? ” Alf maintained his standard severe demeanor.
