Chapter 09 "So, what is it that you want?" "I thought you'd first ask about how to screw over the head of the Laosh Merchant Group."I had expected her to just suck up all the information from Alosha and then clam up, so I was slightly surprised by her unexpectedly reasonable attitude of asking me to state what I wanted. Just as I was feeling a little guilty for having prejudged her based on her appearance or whatever, the head of the O'Claire Merchant Group slapped his thigh and let out a…-

Chapter 11 Alisis Fedelov, the 2nd Chancellor of Haint. She had been resting her chin on both hands, observing the face of the man right next to her for a full 15 minutes. “……Is there something on my face?” “Huh? No?” “…….” Histein felt incredibly pressured by her smiling cheerfully at him. “If you have something to say, please say it.” “Really? Can I?” “If I said no, would you not say it?” “No?” “…….” At the company, he was…-

Chapter 10 A while ago, on the day of Rodia's graduation ceremony. Hystein, who had arrived at the school long before the ceremony began, ended up witnessing an unpleasant sight. A man clinging to Rodia's side, taking pictures with her. Hystein found that man oddly irritating. He was also the man he had met during the funeral arrangements some time ago. *'Isaac Wallace, was it?'* His face and neck were flushed red, clearly showing he was flustered and shy just from standing next to…

Chapter 09 "I think I'm going to burst." Rodia stroked her full, round belly with a satisfied expression. The cook hired for the new mansion was exceptionally skilled. It had been a truly satisfying dinner. The perfectly cooked salmon steak with its crispy skin was particularly artistic. Lying on the chaise longue, smiling contentedly, she suddenly sat bolt upright. "Come to think of it, the taste is great too." She rolled her foot on the marble-patterned deep green tiles on the…

Chapter 08 Having come to stay temporarily at the Roart mansion, Rodia had truly enjoyed herself for just over a week. She tinkered on the piano, which she remembered playing as a child, and read romance novels, which she had never read before, on her friends' recommendations. The ten or so days she spent at the Roart mansion were like a symbol of deviation for Rodia. And today, she stepped into the ivory-walled building at 26-7 Grandel Street. The thirteen-year-old building, newly…

Chapter 07 "You know that's an insult, right?" "It was a mutter." He erased Damian from his mind. "For now, I want to play until I'm sick of it. Doing nothing, just playing." "Miss Proxhate." Hystein called her name with a resolute tone and gaze. "You want to play until you're sick of it? There's a timing to life. While you're playing, others will be securing their positions and drawing the life they've designed. Can you afford to be so leisurely?" When Hystein had called…

Chapter 06 The morning after the graduation ceremony, Rodia began her day at the Roart family mansion, located at 26-1 Grandel Street, with its white exterior walls. "Wow……." Rodia, who had woken up early out of habit, was mesmerized by the garden visible through the window. The snow that had fallen overnight lay thickly, sparkling in the sunlight. Wearing a cardigan over her pajamas, she stepped out onto the terrace of her bedroom. The wind brushing past her nose was chillingly…

~Chapter 52~ “Uh, is there any way to get some more soap? I have a party in a few days, and I need my skin to improve even a little by then.” “Why?” “…Someone’s coming.” Ah! Harriet found Viviana, who was so desperate to impress the man she liked, kind of cute. Not long ago, she had been so annoying. Harriet smiled softly and took out a small package she had prepared in advance. She had known from the start that Viviana’s visit was because of the soap. “Where is the…-

~Chapter 51~ Manual labor was almost like a line that separated commoners from nobles. Publicly admitting to doing such work was like confessing that you had fallen to the level of a commoner. But Harriet was not ashamed at all. “Of course it was hard. But while stirring the soap ingredients in the pot for days, I was able to reflect on God’s words. I realized my foolishness and sincerely repented.” Everyone admired her honest confession about something she might have wanted to…

~Chapter 50~ Even though Benedict had told himself it would be fine, sitting face-to-face with Cedric in the drawing room of the Duke of Kailas’s estate brought a strange tension. He spent over 30 minutes on small talk before smoothly shifting to news of others, as if casually updating Cedric on his own life. “By the way, do you know Viscount Livingston?” “I think I’ve heard the name. He built some wealth through construction, didn’t he?” “Oh, so you do know him? His son runs a…
