Chapter 18 "S-Sorry." Wow, if that had broken from bumping into it, how much would that have cost? I don't have money to pay for that. "Thank you, Lestern. I was really surprised." "Don't mention it." Lestern released me. His reflexes were really good. Now's the time for a compliment. "Lestern, you really have great reflexes. At this rate, you could be a great father! They say a dad has to be a superman. He has to be able to rescue his child immediately if they get into danger while…-

Chapter 17 The next day, the weeklies, the dailies, and even the yellow press all ran articles about the Muteso incident. All those newspapers were laid out before the Count of Loterua. [The Muteso Turmoil: Was Loterua Behind It All? Until now, the Loterua Earldom and the Muteso Viscountcy have been engaging in inexcusable acts, pushing the residents of Muteso into despair. It has been confirmed that the Viscount of Muteso imposed tax rates exceeding the legally mandated limits, and…

Chapter 16 What had been in those eyes looking at me was actually resentment. After my mother and father passed away, he turned his arrows of resentment toward me. *'You killed them. You killed my daughter-in-law and my son... you killed them. You should have died too! Then I could have at least forgotten!'* So I couldn't bring myself to completely hate him. "But it seems my words aren't being heard. I've gone to Viscount Muteso several times, but I've only been given orders to comply…

Chapter 15 "My man? You mean Reston?" "Yes! You two look so good together. My mother said it looks like you two will be getting married soon!" "Oh my, my mother said you've already set a wedding date!" "Goodness. I must be the last to know." No, it's not that I'm the last to know—there's no such thing! I quickly opened my mouth, which had been clamped shut like a clam. "There's no such thing! Reston and I are just friends, absolutely nothing more than that. Marriage... really,…

Chapter 14 Muteso was already bustling with the young ladies who had followed the noblewomen. “……Why are there so many people gathered here?” By now, shouldn't they be gathered at dress shops, salons, or maybe coffeehouses, or galleries, laughing and chatting about how pretty your dress is, how pretty my necklace is, how much money your man has, how high-status my man is? It looked like all the people from the capital had flocked here. The desolate and barren space was now dyed…

Chapter 13 "There are various things. He really dislikes children. He absolutely abhors them. And he doesn't speak kindly to them either. Since ancient times, they say you should never associate with someone who is mean to children... but then his actions contradict that. I heard he went straight into that chaos himself to keep a promise he made to a child. Ah, it was a dangerous situation." The sight of Reston digging through the collapsed rubble to find and pull out the missing person was…

Chapter 12 "What? You don't have to do that. That's a hassle. It's not reasonable either." I refused flatly. Ugh, we're not even dating. Coming to get me today was already overkill. "It's Grandmother's command. It's less of a hassle for me to come pick you up, so that's more reasonable." That's…… well, that could be true. Everyone has different things they find bothersome. Besides, since I need to stay close with Dowager Duchess Yurasel, it wouldn't hurt to follow her wishes. "You…

Chapter 11 What's the point of struggling desperately to cultivate a peaceful future? The family is already out there scattering ashes everywhere! *'I thought I possessed a good family, but I was wrong!!'* I needed to find out what exactly they had been hiding. This was no time to be casually asking Lindberg for 'good ways to compliment men.' I needed to commission him to find out what Roteroa was hiding, and about the Dowager's grudges. *'As soon as I get back—no, it's a bit late today.…

Chapter 10 Everything was going smoothly. When I told my father that the Dowager Duchess of Cheskant and her acquaintances would also be accompanying us on the volunteer trip to Muteso, he even did a little shoulder dance. *'The Dowager Duchess of Cheskant must be considering you as the Duchess's wife once again. My child, Roseel. You must do well. You must win back the Dowager Duchess's heart. From what I know, the Dowager Duchess favors clever and calculating young ladies. How should I put…

Chapter 09 Yurasel Cheskant. The iron-blooded woman who, despite losing her husband, son, and daughter-in-law all at once, had led the Cheskant Ducal House to this day. It was written that Yurasel had inherited Cheskant to her grandson in its perfect form. I gulped. So she's like a successful female CEO version in a romance fantasy novel. I'm a little nervous. In the novel, Yurasel was evaluated as an intelligent and cynical character. Moreover, since some people called Yurasel a…
