Cedric strolled through the manor halls, hands tucked into his pockets, feeling bored.
Meira wasn't around.
Even Marcellus was locked away in his room with Lithia, probably too busy for anything else.
With nothing better to do, Cedric wandered aimlessly. His steps led him to the upstairs balcony, where a cool breeze greeted him. He leaned against the railing, lazily scanning the estate grounds.
And that's when he saw him.
Far below, near the Pekko pen, his little brother Javier was having the time of his life, grilling meat with Liana and Gloria.
Oho—
Cedric smirked. Lucky him.
He had long since recognized Javier's affection for those two. Watching them now, there was no doubt—his little brother was winning at life.
With boredom setting in, Cedric let out a quiet sigh.
He felt slightly hungry.
He could go to the main dining room, call for the household maids and the chef, and have them prepare something for him. A proper noble meal, served on fine plates with a warm drink.
