Chapter 70 Reina spoke reluctantly. “…Don’t people usually keep that kind of thing to themselves?” “Do they?” Michael looked unbothered, his expression unreadable. He’s impossible to figure out. Reina decided she needed to learn more about him, especially since he seemed to want her to find Jeffery. “Why are you helping me?” His faint smile returned. “I’m curious to see how far you can go, Reina.” “…” “Take care of yourself.” With…- 1.2 M • Completed
- Chapter 69 Michael shrugged. “I planned to do as you did at the banquet.” “What?” “You already knew, didn’t you? That His Majesty can discern truth from lies.” “!” “I know it too. So you don’t need to worry about me revealing your secret to the Emperor. I’m good at slipping through.” “How can you slip through? Knowing I hid my power already makes you a target.” Reina’s confused expression prompted a softened smile from Michael. “With my…

- Chapter 68 Once the situation was under control, Kaiden didn’t hold back his scolding. “What were you thinking, coming to a place like this so recklessly? What if you got hurt?” He was clearly upset. Reina’s bravado deflated as she mumbled, “I found out the village chief’s granddaughter wasn’t on the list. I was worried about you.” “You came because you were worried about me?” “Yes. I really don’t want you to get hurt.” Her honest answer made him pause. The…

- Chapter 67 The man hesitated, unable to continue. As Kaiden had suspected, there was more to the story. “I was just scared…” He still seemed unwilling to confess. Rather than waste any more time, Kaiden decided to press him harder. He drew his sword and pointed the blade at the man’s throat. “Eek!” “Lie to me, and I’ll cut you down right now.” “I-I’ll tell you the truth! Please, spare me!” Trembling violently, the man begged for his life. Kaiden…

Chapter 21 The conflict between the head maid and the nanny was in full swing beneath the surface. To the head maid, this must have felt like an unexpected stroke of luck. Since their interests aligned, Eliano was more than willing to support Miller’s campaign. “The nanny said she would stay in the small room… but the attending physician insisted that for absolute rest, she be moved to a proper room.” The maids chattered excitedly as they assisted Eliano with her bath. Eliano could bet all her…- 1.7 M • Ongoing
- Chapter 20 “I’ll handle the matter with Nanny Pamela. Neglecting the treatment of the young lady she serves is indeed a grave crime.” “Right, it’d be troublesome if any harm came to my body.” “You understand well. So, behave properly. Get yourself together.” Damian left, leaving behind a cold atmosphere. Only then did Eliano remember—in her past life, around this time, she had been quite affectionate toward Damian. She hadn’t hesitated to express her fondness for…

- Chapter 19 Pamela mumbled something, and Isabella reached out again. As Miller and Emily stepped back, Isabella grabbed Pamela’s hair once more. Everyone turned their heads as Isabella slammed Pamela’s head to the floor. Isabella had inherited her father’s cruel streak. “Pamela, Father would never tolerate his daughters getting hurt. Can’t you think straight?” Isabella spoke as if Pamela were a filthy insect, throwing her head down. Blood trickled from Pamela’s…

- Chapter 18 The maid urgently pulled Isabella back, hiding her from view. Pamela’s clear voice echoed down the corridor. “See, miss? You should have listened to your nanny. You always obey your father, so why not me? If you dislike me, think of me as the Duke. Wouldn’t that make things easier for both of us?” Pamela was carrying Eliano on her back, who appeared lifeless. Isabella, fearing her sister was dead, covered her mouth to stifle a scream. Emily, sensing…

- Chapter 17 “It’s hard to touch Father’s belongings. You know that…” “I’m not talking about Father’s things. What about Mother’s belongings?” “Those are also… too difficult.” Isabella had a hard time stealing the young duke’s belongings. She had to sneak in like a cat and barely managed to steal them herself. “If it’s something already stolen, wouldn’t it be easier?” “What? That old woman is really a…

- Chapter 16 Viscount Albich stood before Eliano, awkward and unsure of himself. Honestly, it was painful to watch. Eliano turned her gaze toward the ballroom. Then, by chance, her eyes met someone else's. Out of habit, she smiled. I really need to stop smiling so easily. She had always smiled whenever someone met her eyes. Even in her previous life, it had been an instinct she couldn't seem to break. Why can't I fix it? She quickly looked away from those silvery-grey eyes that…
