Chapter 7 “L-Lady, then I’ll get everything ready right away.”After thinking it over, I blankly watched Carol, who was trembling all over as she brought out five dresses and hurriedly held each one up against me. Carol was extremely serious about choosing a dress. Her discerning eye and particular tastes were quite impressive. Perhaps her standards had been raised thanks to Yvonne, who had indulged in extravagant spending and bought the finest clothes and jewelry in the…- 465.0 K • Ongoing
- Chapter 6 The aide standing nearby agreed as well. “I couldn’t believe it either. But this is definitely the young lady’s handwriting. The way she organized everything using these square-shaped tables is truly revolutionary!” “Hmm.” The Duke gestured with his chin for him to continue, so the aide calmly explained the situation in greater detail. When the aide had returned to the office and seen the five sheets of paper lying there all by themselves on the desk, he had initially…

Chapter 8 Cain led Luciella, who was carrying a tray, toward a room tucked away in a corner of the second floor of the mansion. As Luciella walked down the long corridor, she suddenly stopped. Despite it being the middle of the day, the atmosphere in the hallway was gloomy, and hardly any light came in. The old carpet covering the floor was worn and faded in places, and the lack of footsteps from the servants made it seem as though only stale dust and a chilly draft lingered in the…- 376.6 K • Ongoing
- Chapter 7 Luciella looked over the kitchen equipment and swallowed nervously. Fortunately, Cain had been telling the truth when he said that he had had a doctor examine her while she was unconscious. The sensation had returned to her fingertips. “Let’s see…” After washing her hands with the water that had been prepared, Luciella rummaged through the pile of kabocha squash stacked in the corner of the kitchen and picked out a small but heavy one. “I’ll make kabocha squash…

- Chapter 6 Calling the scenery of the duke’s residence overwhelming would still be an understatement. Elaborately carved marble pillars and meticulously maintained gardens stretched as far as the eye could see. The family had already been wealthy to begin with, but the rumor that the current duke had tripled the family’s fortune over the course of his reign did not seem exaggerated at all. After leaving the carriage to Lucan, Cain took Luciella straight to the kitchen of the ducal…

Chapter 5 When the party began, the Duke of Lindertho stood at the foot of the grand staircase in the center of the hall. With his hair neatly swept back and dressed in a dark navy suit, he looked especially tall and striking today. Dominic quickly scanned the people continuing to enter the hall. Then, at some point, his golden eyes recognized someone, and a brilliant light flickered within them. “She finally came.” Elin entered the ballroom, nervously looking around. Whenever she…- 682.4 K • Ongoing
- Chapter 4 Baron and Baroness Nilson could hardly contain their joy as they held the invitation sent by the duke in both hands. “My dear, I think the day has finally come when our family will be recognized.” “I never expected His Grace to take our family into consideration as well. We should be grateful.” “Once your business starts doing well, we'll be able to live in the capital without feeling inferior to anyone. Our Jenis has already married into such an excellent family, so now all…

- Chater 3 “What is this?” A few days later, Elin stared down at the dress her stepmother had held out to her, her face filled with bewilderment. “I picked it because I thought it would look good with your eyes.” It was a green muslin indoor dress. The hem was trimmed with abundant, delicate white lace, and thin, long ribbons were adorably attached to the sleeves. “It belongs to Jenis.” Even before she had married and left the house, Jenis had never once shared her clothes with…

- Chapter 2 “But, but…” Her flustered violet eyes wavered uncertainly before she seemed to make up her mind and looked straight at him. “I wanted the Duke to see me properly, even if only once. I’m a grown woman now, but you still only treat me like your little sister. Sniff.” She bit down gently on her lip, trying to hold back the tears that threatened to spill. “So… so… I was tempted when I heard that drinking it would make the other person immediately fall in love with…

- Chapter 1 “Ugh……” Duke Dominic Linderto felt a pain as though someone were driving an awl straight through his head. “Jeffrey. Bring me some water.” His hoarse, rough voice called for his butler, but there was no answer. Only then did he realize that he wasn't in his room, but somewhere else. Pressing down on his eyes, which refused to open, he slowly sat up. He found himself in a greenhouse filled with the chilly air of dawn. He sat up on the long sofa and tried to remember…
