"I'm home."
When Sam returned home after dropping Clyde and Stella off at the royal palace, he found his family and fiancée all gathered at the door.
"Look at all of you!"
Sam!
"Lise-sama, what is this? Lady Karen, Lady Mizuki, and even Lady Alicia. Oh, the Master and his wife are all here too. ...... Are you going somewhere?"
The Earls of Walker and their fiancées are as close as family can get.
They have even gone out to eat together on several occasions.
（Do we have plans today?)
At least Sam can't remember the last time he had to go out with everyone in one place.
Is it that he just forgot about it, or was it something that was suddenly decided?
I was thinking about it leisurely,
"We've been waiting for you!"
A nervous Liese told me on behalf of the group.
"Me? Why is that again?"
(--What did I do? You didn't, did you? (Yeah, I didn't do anything that would make you angry!)
Other than the recent turmoil between Günther and Cree, I have been relatively quiet, so I have no reason to blame them.
However, what is this tense atmosphere that is prevailing among everyone here?
It made me nervous, too.
"Sam, let's talk a little. "Well, there's a lot of people here, so let's talk in the cafeteria.
"Huh."
For some reason, I was impressed by Jonathan, who had his stomach in knots and was trying to smile peacefully, but failing and looking somewhat drawn.
(Huh? Did I do something wrong after all?)
Sam follows Jonathan to the diner, and his fiancée surrounds him as if to keep him from escaping.
I felt like a prisoner being transported.
Sam and his fiancée move into the cafeteria. They each take their seats as usual, and the maid offers them cold tea.
Sam, who was thirsty, happily drank the tea and quenched his thirst, while Jonathan began to talk with a mysterious look on his face.
"Well, where should I start...... to tell you the truth, I was just told about it by Liese and the others, and I can't hide my surprise."
Uh, yes.
"Father, Sam is in trouble. First, we must tell him what we need to tell him.
Yes, that's right. Sam, do you remember your mother?
Sam was puzzled by Jonathan's question.
Why is he asking about his mother now?
"No, not really. My mother died before I can remember. For me, Daphne, the maid, was my mother and sister."
"...... I see. That's understandable."
（How come you're talking about your mother now? I think I told you before that he passed away. I don't remember much about it in my earlier memories.)
I have two memories of Sam, one from my previous life in Japan and the other inherited from the previous Sam.
The former can be recalled to a certain extent, but not so much the latter.
In the first place, until the switch from the former Sam to the present Sam, Sam had no memories at all.
Of course, he has no memory of his mother either. Probably because of his mother's early death.
Sam's inherited memories are of a fragile old Sam living in not-so-good circumstances and being able to endure such a daily life because of Daphne and Derrick, whom he could truly call family, even though they are not related to him by blood.
It is not that I have no memories of my mother Melanie, but they are hazy. Because of this, I do not consider her as my mother.
To Sam, family was Daphne, Derrick, and all the servants in the Reinbach household.
"Well, sir, how did you know about my mother?"
"There's no point in being indirect. There's no point in embarrassing Sam, so I'll be direct."
"Please."
Sam's mother, Lady Melanie, is alive.
"--Yes?"
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
