Chapter 5 He stood in the center of the banquet hall and suddenly began to cry out loud. People, shocked by his behavior, froze and stared at him—then screamed and stepped back. I pushed through the crowd and stood in front of him. Water had pooled at Leon’s feet. Drops were falling from the ends of his pants. “Did you pee yourself?” I blurted out in shock and quickly covered my mouth. Then I grabbed him and looked around, trying to find someone to help. The faces around us…-

Chapter 4 Leon was lying on the sofa in the sitting room next to the bedroom, kicking his feet, but quickly got up when I came in. “Bella!!” He ran over to me excitedly like a puppy seeing its owner. “But…” “Here! I brought you chocolates and candy!!” “No, not that. Your hair looks like a lion’s mane now?” His face looked confused, but his eyes were sharp. “My head was itchy, so I scratched it. Maybe I have fleas?” “Ew, I hate fleas. Bella, that’s…

Chapter 3 “Not the duke’s wife, but the Grand Duke’s wife. To be exact, the Grand Duchess. Do I really have to explain this to you? Who was she again?” “Oh my, you’re so funny.” I’m not joking. I really don’t know. “Robin, can you help unload the luggage?” I learned his name from a middle-aged woman who politely greeted me. “My lady, why have you gotten so thin?” Her eyes welled up with tears. I didn’t know who she was, but seeing those tears she shed for me…

Chapter 2 “That felt kind of unpleasant.” As Leon walked holding Kalsen’s hand, he roughly shook it off after Bella (Bell-Bell) disappeared. “What’s so unpleasant?” “…It just felt weird. Like she was teasing me or something.” “Would she really do that? Honestly, this isn’t something to say about her, but isn’t she rumored to be the least intelligent person in the Empire, second only to His Highness? Even if we assume she’s a fool…” “She’s acting completely…

Chapter 01 “No, no, that’s not what you do.” I kept my mouth shut and shook my head as I pulled the snot-covered cloth from Leon’s shirt out of his mouth. Leon got annoyed and showed his teeth like he was angry. “I don’t want to! Give it back!!” “Hmph! Just behave.” I ignored his whining and wiped his nose skillfully. Then Leon rubbed his snotty hand on my dress. “Hey!!” When I spoke in a low voice, Leon’s face started to scrunch up like he was going to cry…

Chapter 80 Late at night, Gemma quietly entered Delani’s room. She gently woke her up. “Madam, the investigation is complete.” Delani immediately sat up. Gemma wrapped a shawl around her shoulders, and the two headed to the living room. “Come in.” At Gemma’s command, a man hesitantly entered. “Madam, Luan was also attacked by something invisible, just like Somerset and Axel.” “Are you sure?” At Gemma’s signal, Luan spoke nervously. “I—I don’t remember…-

Chapter 79 The doorknob turned, and just as I hurriedly stepped away, Dedrick added in a cold voice. “Let me make this clear. Stop sending me letters. It’s uncomfortable and burdensome.” “B-but, Dedrick! I’m Ebony Silius!” “I know.” “W-wait… weren’t my letters being blocked by the Grand Duchess? She was the one who opposed our engagement…” Ah, the engagement. There’s a bit of a story behind that. When Delani tried to send Dedrick to the Silius family as a…

Chapter 78 He swept back his damp hair and let out a long sigh he had been holding. A strange glint flashed in his blue eyes. “How dare they touch what’s mine.” Anger surged within him. His determination to become the heir grew even stronger. “I just need to endure for four more months.” Once he succeeded in the subjugation and secured his place as the heir, he would push the Grand Duchess, Somerset, and Axel aside. No one would dare lay a hand on Marilyn. He clenched his fist…

Chapter 77 “……Why are you here?” “I felt uneasy after leaving like that… and Somerset wanted to apologize too, so we came together. May we come in for a moment?” The veins on Dedrick’s jaw tensed. “I’m busy right now…” “Hey, we’re here to apologize. Let’s talk inside.” Without waiting for permission, Somerset shoved past him and entered the room—only to stop in his tracks. “Mother.” At Somerset’s signal, Delani stepped inside. She glanced around…

Chapter 76 Everyone there had attempted to speak to Dedrick at least once. Soon, Dedrick appeared at the picnic spot. The maids, itching to acknowledge him, gazed at him with burning anticipation. Dedrick’s expression grew even colder under their stares. “Come on over, Dedrick. I wanted to celebrate your mission with the Black Hawk, so I arranged this gathering. We didn’t get to properly congratulate you back then.” Delani greeted Dedrick with a sickeningly sweet smile, naturally…
