If it’s to become my favorite stepmother, I’ll gladly do a fake marriage! [Main story complete]

Chapter 5 - Marry me



Brigid was heading to the governess’s introduction office. The introduction agency that Brigid belonged to dealt only with first-class governesses.

“I would like to introduce you to a governess who specializes in preparing for entrance exams for the Royal Academy.”

As a result, wages were higher than for general governesses, and if there was a violation of the rules such as sexual harassment, the introduction would be canceled and you would be required to pay a penalty.

Brigid brought a number of love letters she received from her previous employer as evidence of violation of the rules.

“How much does this letter cost? I was planning to charge Nisha-kyun, but I wonder if it will end up as a settlement fee for the perverted marquis…”

After defeating Diarmid Hrozvitnir yesterday, Brigid thought about it.

He might sue her for assaulting a high-ranking aristocrat. There might also be a claim for damages. The worst thing was that the Grimbursty family could be cut off. She needed money to prepare for the future.

“Should I kill him after all…? But if I kill him, I’ll have trouble disposing of the corpse…”

She opened the door to the introduction office while muttering something disturbing.

Then, the people inside quickly turned their attention to Brigid.

“It’s Miss Brigid! I want you to be our governess next. I’ll pay you 1.3 times as much!”

“No, I would pay 1.5 times more if it was my house!”

Rumors were spreading that Brigid had been fired as governess. She was a private tutor, also known as a successful contractor, and was very popular at this agency.

Brigid treated it with a smile.

“Please apply through the introduction office. I will work at the place with the highest salary.”

When she said that, the bidding had already started from among those who wanted it.

When Brigid looked at the reception desk in the back, she saw Laurie, the owner of the Kat family who had fired her yesterday, and his wife.

“Miss Brigid! I’m sorry about my wife! It was a lie when I said you were fired! I want you to take care of my daughter!! My salary is double your current salary. What do you think?”

 

“You! What are you talking about twice!!”

Laurie clung to her.

Mrs. Kat glared at Brigid with hatred.

“Look! You should apologize too!! Miss Brigid is a popular governess! She’s the god of exams. There’s no one to replace her!!”

Laurie forcibly held Mrs. Kat’s head down.

“No, I can’t do it anymore. It’s not good for your child’s education if the family environment is disrupted. Please find someone else.”

After saying that, Brigid hurriedly went to the reception desk and handed the chairman of the introduction agency the many love letters she had received from Laurie.

“This is a violation of the rules of the Kat family.”

She handed them over with a smile.

The chairman frowned when he saw this.

“Mr. Kat, this introduction agency will no longer be able to introduce you to anyone. Brigid’s contract will be terminated.”

“…That’s it!!”

“In that case, I will have to pay the penalty…”

There were giggles and laughter all around. Just from those words, they knew what the letter was about.

It seemed that Laurie was worried about Brigid and gave her a love letter.

“Sexual harassment against the governess here.”

“I can’t believe it”

“Because this is how I came to be…”

A small whisper accused Mr. and Mrs. Kat.

Mrs. Kat was shaking with shame.

“This is me.”

Brigid was about to leave from the introduction office. In this situation, she thought she wouldn’t be able to decide on her next job today.

Then Mrs. Kat chased after her.

“You!!”

Mrs. Kat raised her hand.

Brigid smiled.

(If you hit me, the penalty will go up even more! And there will be alimony!!)

She closed her eyes and relaxed her body to be beaten. When you get hit, it hurts less to parry the blow than to stiffen your body and endure it.

However, her hand stopped before it touched Brigid’s cheek.
