Chapter 36 Seong-woo’s story had credibility. Because the existence of the “letter” was something he could not have known unless the person involved had spoken of it. Jiwan was confused. There had been a reason sufficient for Hyeryeon, who had suddenly disappeared, and even that letter that had driven him crazy… had been for the sake of the self who would be left behind. A sufficient reason? Whatever it was, could it justify a one-sided breakup? Or should I understand that she left for…-

Chapter 35 “Is this a celebration? In honor of becoming a dad.” About thirty minutes later, Seong-woo came to where Jiwan was. Jiwan wordlessly pointed with his chin at the seat opposite. Seong-woo cursed inwardly and sank heavily into the seat. “You seem pretty interested in my business.” While putting ice he had picked up with tongs into an old-fashioned glass, Jiwan spoke. “Maybe it’s because I got screwed at the board meeting. I’ve got a bit of free time.” “So that’s…

Chapter 34 These days, the stock market rumor mills were spitting out news about the NK family every day. Starting with Jiwan, the party involved in the Cinderella scandal, all the way to Yeojeong’s affair and Chairman Do Chang-ho’s dissolute past. Stories about the twin rascals were not left out either. Occasionally Seong-woo also came under scrutiny, but apart from his picky personality there was no particularly noteworthy gossip. Having received Chairman Do’s urgent summons, Jiwan rushed to…

Chapter 33 Facing Hyeryeon’s bloodless face, Jiwan’s chest ached. Why do you always have to be treated like this? Why you? “Let’s get up. Okay?” Jiwan spoke gently as he supported Hyeryeon. Unlike usual, she said nothing. He would have preferred she came out boldly, but seeing her so deflated made him feel as if his entire heart was being torn out. The café had fallen silent as if cold water had been poured over it. Sangsun, who had been causing a ruckus, was the same. Jiwan looked…

Chapter 27 “A certain soldier working in the imperial family recalled the events of that day like this. ‘She bluffed that she was a princess to the knight and made him kneel. Since the princess had come out, we naturally…’” At the story the girl was telling, the boy lying on the sofa clutched his stomach and laughed loudly. “So? So which other knight got into trouble?” “Lucior. At least read the newspaper by yourself.” “Ehh. I hate reading letters. It needlessly hurts my…-

Chapter 26 ‘On top of that…’ I wiped my face with my hand and recalled the contents of the original story. In the original, Reijina had also been assigned escort knights. But those knights had regarded becoming Reijina’s escorts as a humiliation. Working under a princess who had a criminal for a mother was, in a way, exile, a demotion, and proof of being pushed out of power. ‘The knights didn’t directly harm Reijina, but…’ They had stood by and watched when other palace…

Chapter 25 “Yes, I am Your Majesty’s wife and the empress of this empire. Even if I, in my love for my child, may have somewhat forgotten fairness, how could I have treated an imperial member who is Your Majesty’s child carelessly?” Cayenne took one step back. To avoid Ranut’s touch. Then she picked up a few documents from the desk where she had been sitting until just now. “Look. Even now I was in the middle of selecting maids for Princess Reijina.” Ranut neither reached out a…

Chapter 24 When Moa opened the door, a man appeared. “You’re awake? It would be better if you rested a little more.” The man with long, dark brown hair reaching his waist and wearing metal-rimmed glasses was, of course, someone I was seeing for the first time. Who is this? “I am Renheimer de Horpin. I have come by order of His Majesty the Emperor.” When I looked at him full of wariness, the man introduced himself with a gentle smile. “……” I pulled my chin back with a…

Chapter 23 “Here it is.” Kashas handed the prepared documents to Ranut. They were the financial records organizing the amount allocated to Princess Reijina after her confinement and the uses of that amount. “Clean.” Ranut scanned the documents and gave a bitter smile. The documents were flawlessly clean. So clean that he didn’t even feel empty. But if the appropriate daily necessities had been provided to Reijina according to these documents, that room could never have been in…

Chapter 22 “I need the financial documents that organize the amount allocated to Princess Reijina after her confinement and the uses of that amount.” Having returned to Reijina’s room, Ranut immediately ordered Kashas. “Understood.” Kashas bowed politely. In addition, Ranut ordered that everything Reijina needed right now—now that night had already fallen—be obtained using his private funds. From a single handkerchief all the way to dresses, everything. “Is she all…
