~Chapter 02~ What a beautiful friendship this is. Harriet clenched her teeth tightly. She was fed up with this familiar situation—it was both ridiculous and infuriating. ‘I don’t care if he’s an old man on the verge of death. If someone would just take me away from this demon, I’d marry him in a heartbeat, so please, propose to me.’ Harriet prayed desperately. She was desperate, but deep down, she didn’t really expect much. God hadn’t answered her prayers since she was twelve,…-

~Chapter 30~ ‘What was his name again? Gray? Greg? I think his last name ended in “tro” or something…’ Harriet couldn’t 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 wasn’t overly light or annoying. And now, just like Harriet, he was standing alone, quietly sipping his drink without anyone to talk…

Chapter 21 It Bothers Me (2) In the afternoon, the Grand Duke had a full schedule, so I couldn’t disturb him any longer. ‘Maybe I should write a letter to Ferdinand?’ Even if Ferdinand wasn’t happy to receive my letter, I had at least to thank him for the expensive gift he sent me. Not that I expected him to reply. ‘Come to think of it, the Marquis has been quiet.’ Maybe he didn’t care about his unrecognized daughter running away. The Marquis’ family hadn’t sent any…-

Chapter 06 There’s no way he could sense my presence… Is it because he’s a Duke? He’s really suspicious. I wondered about it while cautiously touching the necklace. Sure enough, the spell on it seemed to have disappeared, as there was no reaction when I touched it. The Duke scanned the room while looking at Delani, who stood still as a statue. “Or should I search the place myself and humiliate you?” “…Bring it.” In the end, the Duchess backed down. “Wait, were…-

Chapter 26 A Man Who Can Envision the Future “An… outrageous story, you say?” “Whether you believe what I’m about to say or not doesn’t matter. Just listen.” “A-all right.” Stefan straightened his posture, trying to focus just as Ferda had asked. Though he still felt a bit dizzy, he could pay attention. Ferda began calmly. “This is the future I envision.” He didn’t dramatize it. No exaggerations, no lofty speeches. Just a simple recounting of what he had seen,…-

Chapter 20 It Bothers Me (1) The next morning, as usual, I knocked on the Grand Duke’s door. The only difference from yesterday was that there was no loud crashing sound in response to my knock. Instead, it was as if the Grand Duke had been waiting right by the door—he opened it instantly, without a sound. “Good morning, Your Grace!” “Good… morning.” It seemed he had slept well. His skin looked smooth and radiant. His neatly combed hair revealed his flawless forehead and…

Chapter 11 “Answer me.” Taehyuk’s voice dropped low. It meant he was angry. The angrier Taehyuk got, the lower his voice sank. “D-Dear, it’s not like that...” Seo-ah stepped in hurriedly. “I asked Mrs. Kim,” Taehyuk dismissed her with clear displeasure. “I’m sorry,” Mrs. Kim hung her head low. “What is going on here?” Just then, Seung-hee entered the kitchen and asked. Taehyuk snapped around toward Seung-hee. “Did you order this, Mother?” “Order what?” “Why is…-

Chapter 016 It wasn’t exactly a funny comment, but Dedrick didn’t seem upset. In fact, he looked rather pleased. “So, you know about the Duchess and my mother, right…?” “I know.” I didn’t bother hiding it. Anyone who had been here long enough would know about that incident. And even if they didn’t, I’d already seen everything in the novel. “…I’m scared of the Duchess.” “Me too. Who would’ve thought she’d put anti-theft magic on the keepsakes? She’s a…

Chapter 7 In the end, Taehyuk couldn't recall. The only thing that remained in his memory was the image of Seo-ah’s face looking like she had been stuck in a massive wedding cake. Even so, her face had been lovely. Useless thoughts. Taehyuk reached out and turned off the shower. The small cracks Seo-ah had created in his life were spreading across his heart. Through those fissures, memories he had stowed away were slowly leaking out, though he had yet to realize it. “Come and eat.” Taehyuk…

~Chapter 25~ “It’s a pleasure to meet you, Miss Harriet. I’ll show you to your room.” “Thank you.” “Please, you don’t need to be so formal. Would you like your meal brought to your room, or would you prefer to dine in the dining room?” “You can bring it to my roo—huh?” “Understood. I’ll carry your bags for you.” 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 Pellon…
