Chapter 77 Uncle Popina, my fellow former overweight companion... Recently, he had developed a slim waistline that left everyone who knew him completely shocked and feeling betrayed. "Sigh... It's so annoying how attractive he's become." Even Libby seemed to have a lot to say about Uncle Popina's transformation. "One time he stretched his arm, and his shirt lifted a little..." "My goodness..." "Even Uncle Popina's belly button looked strangely seductive." "I think you're much scarierâŠ-

~Chapter 30~ âWhat was his name again? Gray? Greg? I think his last name ended in âtroâ or somethingâŠâ Harriet couldnât quite remember his name, but he was the man who had seemed friendly when Trisha had introduced him to her earlier. He looked to be in his early thirties, wore expensive and stylish clothes, and although he seemed talkative, his tone wasnât overly light or annoying. And now, just like Harriet, he was standing alone, quietly sipping his drink without anyone to talkâŠ-

Chapter 76 Hebenia, who had studied in Korea for twenty-five years, knew very well how important distribution was. So she strongly supported creating a merchant company. "Creating the merchant company itself won't be that difficult." Modi, Hebenia's chief secretary, gave his advice. "Since Molle Libus, the lord of the Deste Territory, is in that condition, we can simply forge his seal and signature and issue the business permit ourselves." "Wow! Uncle, you're amazing!" "The real problemâŠ

~Chapter 29~ Trishaâs advice had been right. It was fortunate that Harriet remembered the song the Countess sang at Viscount Ainboroughâs house three years ago. It seemed she had passed the first hurdle successfully. The bright expression on the Countessâs face, much like when she greeted Trisha, was proof of that. Of course, just entering the party smoothly didnât mean the nightâs challenges were over. In fact, things were only just beginning. Look at how the faces of the people whoâŠ

~Chapter 28~ âWhat are you talking about? Why wonât you accept this document?â John had rushed to Perillas that very day and barely managed to meet the bank manager just before the bank closed. But as soon as he felt relieved, the manager of Aceti Bank refused to accept the ownership transfer document. âTo change the ownership, we need to confirm the return of the land first. And the person whose name is on the document must come in person to sign the return confirmation, as long asâŠ

~Chapter 27~ âShe seems to have her own plans, so Iâm watching with interest,â Trisha said, smiling widely, which was rare for her. Though they didnât interact often, Cedric had always seen Trisha with a blank or slightly irritable expression. Seeing her this happy was the first time he could recall such a moment. âIt seems youâve taken a liking to Miss Harriet.â At those words, Trishaâs smile disappeared, and she put on a slightly cold expression, as if embarrassed to have beenâŠ

~Chapter 26~ âYou need to choose the evening dress quickly. It takes some time to make one.â Once again, the waiting staff quickly opened the style book for her. Even Harriet, who was waving her hand dismissively, saying it was too much, found her eyes naturally drawn to the elaborate dress illustrations. âYou know, thereâs that style young ladies like these days. Itâs the one with multiple layers of pleated chiffon.â âOh, that dress? It does take a lot of work, so itâsâŠ

~Chapter 25~ âItâs a pleasure to meet you, Miss Harriet. Iâll show you to your room.â âThank you.â âPlease, you donât need to be so formal. Would you like your meal brought to your room, or would you prefer to dine in the dining room?â âYou can bring it to my rooâhuh?â âUnderstood. Iâll carry your bags for you.â The kind maid picked up the bags from the floor and led the way. Harriet had already glanced around when following the butler earlier, but the PellonâŠ

~Chapter 24~ At Trishaâs words, Harrietâs expression changed slightly. âIf youâre talking about life at my uncleâs house, yes, I did go through some hardship.â There was almost a boldness in Harrietâs response, and Trisha let out a small chuckle. As expected, her grandniece was not an ordinary person. âShe seemed quite smart, even as a child.â Trisha still remembered the time 13 years ago when Arthurâs family came to visit her sick husband. Back then, Arthur and LillianâŠ

~Chapter 23~ Moreover, in her bag was the âGuardian Assignment Notice,â which officially stated that Countess Pellon was now her guardian. So, what did she have to fear? Harriet was lost in memories of the past year she had spent at the convent when someone knocked on the door. âSister, have you packed your things?â âOh, Emma!â Harriet welcomed Emma, who had come to get her, with delight. On her first day at the convent, Emma had seemed so cold, but now Harriet found her endearingâŠ
