~Chapter 19~ “Crazy guy…” “You’d have to be at least a little crazy to be a member of Cedric Kailas’ secret organization, wouldn’t you? Hmm… It’s still such a thrilling word, ‘secret agent.’” “Please, enough…” Cedric felt a shiver down his spine from second-hand embarrassment. His friend, Edgar, might look like a carefree playboy, but he was incredibly smart and quick-witted. Sending him to the Kingdom of Kandia as a spy under the guise of studying abroad had seemed…-

~Chapter 18~ The fear that had once felt like standing on the edge of a cliff was completely forgotten. Self-pity was a luxury she couldn’t afford anymore. Her goal was no longer just about surviving. She felt that the only way she could go on living was by avenging her family, including herself. Someone once said that if a person is tormenting you for no reason, you should give them a reason to do so. “A scandal maker? Fine. If they’re going to call me that, I’ll become a real scandal…

~Chapter 17~ “Oh… Has the news already spread?” “It’s become quite a topic of discussion.” But just as she began to wonder why this had led to a visit from a complete stranger, Alfonso spoke with a displeased expression. “After hearing that Viscount Listerwell ended his guardianship over you at the convent, it confirmed a suspicion I’ve had for a long time.” “What? What do you mean…?” “I was one of the people who went boating at Albrecht Park nine years…

~Chapter 16~ Since she had been labeled a troublemaker, no one would criticize John for ending his guardianship. ‘Did he plan all this when he blamed me for Bella’s actions too?’ Harriet felt completely deceived. She looked around in disbelief and frustration, letting out a breath of anger. Then, she threw the gold jewelry she had been holding onto the bed and rushed out of the room. She headed straight for the chapel. Because the days were shorter now, candles were already lit in the…

Chapter 52 Apple Pie Recipe ‘Is he having a hard time these days?’ The Duke looked gloomy on the way to the dining hall. When I asked if he was okay, he brushed it off, saying he was just a little tired because of the diplomatic envoys. “Has he been more stressed than I thought?” I asked Cecilia, and she nodded with a knowing look. “I heard from my father. He said the Duke is trying hard to invite the delegation from Rondoris, but it hasn’t been easy.” “Why…-

Chapter 51 Foxy Tricks A woman had entered the Grand Duke’s castle—a place traditionally forbidden to women—and now all the men were acting like they’d lost their minds. The maid giving cues to the Grand Duchess from behind seemed to be the second daughter of Territo, just like Meisel had said. Tiern glared fiercely at the maid, who quickly looked away, but the Grand Duchess simply looked back at him calmly. ‘So she’s the infamous villainess from the capital? She sure has…

Chapter 50 The Lord’s Intent “I was just admiring the Duke’s outfit because it’s so stylish.” “The outfit… you saw it this morning, didn’t you?” At those words, the Duke shyly brushed his hair back. “It looks even better when seen from the outside.” The Duke was wearing a high-neck shirt with gold buttons and a double-button vest, which was one of the top 10 idol outfits I had picked out from watching many fan-cams. ‘You’re my spring!’ I almost started gushing…

Chapter 49 Do Whatever You Want “Cecilia, a Grand Duchess’s maid should have some decorum. Why are you opening your mouth like that?” “Oh my, I think it’s less open than your Highness’s.” “Ugh.” I cleared my throat and closed my mouth. In just a week, we had become much closer and were now casually exchanging jokes. As I had admitted during our private conversation, Cecilia wasn’t particularly modest for a maid. At first, I thought she’d be more reserved,…

Chapter 48 Deep Grudge Clop, clop. As the sun began to set, the sound of a knight’s horse echoed in the garden as it headed toward the castle. Servants walking by blushed as they saw the owner of the golden hair, glittering in the sunset. It was Tiern Bierri, the captain of the 9th Knight Brigade, known for his cold demeanor as much as for his good looks. The 9th Brigade was a special task force that carried out important missions separate from the regular knights, and Tiern had just…

Chapter 47 Tea Time (2) “The Northern News!” The Grand Duchess’s voice suddenly rose. “I’ve read it before!” “You, Your Grace?” “I really enjoyed the article about the capital’s fashion trends.” Her face flushed with surprise. “T-that was written by me!” The Grand Duchess seemed genuinely curious about how a young noblewoman from a baron’s house ended up writing articles. Cecilia honestly explained that she had wanted to work, so she asked a distant…
