~Chapter 24~ At Trisha’s words, Harriet’s expression changed slightly. “If you’re talking about life at my uncle’s house, yes, I did go through some hardship.” There was almost a boldness in Harriet’s response, and Trisha let out a small chuckle. As expected, her grandniece was not an ordinary person. ‘She seemed quite smart, even as a child.’ Trisha still remembered the time 13 years ago when Arthur’s family came to visit her sick husband. Back then, Arthur and Lillian…-

~Chapter 15~ No matter how much she thought about it, such a thing couldn’t be true. James wasn’t that kind of person. In the past five years, he hadn’t once looked at any woman besides Daphne. He was always kind, polite, and never hesitated when it came to imagining a future together. “I… I trust James. There must be some misunderstanding.” Daphne’s response, which seemed more like she was avoiding reality, made Melody sigh with sympathy. “I hope that’s the case too, but…”…

Chapter 61 Lakeside Date (2) “I told you before, he’s a rude and difficult man. Meeting him will only ruin your mood.” “But still…” I’ve never seen a wizard in my life! “I heard he’s very skilled. I’m just curious.” “He’s not that impressive,” the Duke replied with a slight pout. But under my questioning gaze, he finally admitted, “…His material transformation magic isn’t bad.” “Material transformation magic?” “It’s the ability to…-

Chapter 33 Today’s Special “…We’re really married.” “Huh?” “We’re truly married.” “…….” “We’re not a fake couple, are we?” The Grand Duke muttered in a low voice, just loud enough for me to hear. “The marriage contract is officially recognized by the temple.” “Ah… Right. The paperwork is real.” We had just agreed to end the marriage within a year, that’s all. Why is he adapting so fast? Not long ago, he was so serious about not…

Chapter 36 “Huh?” Is he asking if he did well lifting me up? When did he get this strong? As I stood there with a dazed expression, Dedrick seemed disappointed that he didn’t get the reaction he expected. He mumbled hesitantly. “About the sparring earlier…” “Ah!” I had completely forgotten about it because I was so startled when he suddenly lifted me. I spread my arms wide and gave Dedrick a tight hug. “You did amazing! I was so shocked! I wanted to jump around while…-

Chapter 41 Spring Comes The sweet scent filling the room made my mouth watery without me realizing it. I had asked the head chef to come up with some desserts suitable for tea time, but… Now I wondered if that request had been too much pressure, especially since he’d never even seen the new hostess in person. I felt a little sorry about it. “Did I ask too much?” “What do you mean, Your Highness?” The chef, Berni, looked excited, his face slightly flushed and eyes…

Chapter 16 The Hidden Contract “I told you about the curse despite the risks because I believe you have the right to know. At the very least, you should understand why you almost died.” His sharp eyes gleamed. “You need to realize just how much danger you’re in.” “Oh… so you’re saying this for my sake?” I pouted slightly. “Well, I don’t think that’s something a husband who tried to kick out his wife within a week of her arrival should be saying.” The Grand Duke…

Chapter 30 I glared at Somerset and swung my arm wide to loosen up before giving him a proper lesson. ‘This guy is just as scared of ghosts as Axel is.’ Whenever something strange happens, he runs away without looking back. ‘I’ll use that for my advantage and teach him a harsher lesson than usual.’ After all, monsters are supposed to be terrifying to humans. If it gets bad enough, it can leave a trauma. That’s exactly what I planned to give Somerset this time. ‘Looks…

~Chapter 34~ “But Uncle, you knew. You knew I believed you. You knew I had no one else to trust but you!” He had known, and yet he betrayed that desperate trust in the cruelest, most mocking way. “And now you’re here talking about trust like it’s something you care about? That’s just funny to me. If you hurt others so easily, you should be ready to be hurt in return.” “So you’re saying you’re planning to ruin Bella’s engagement, is that it?” “I never said that. But…

Chapter 50 That was a remark mocking them for being born as illegitimate children, unable to rise above their lowly status. I frowned deeply. “Pfft! The stench is so bad it could make my nose go numb!” A boy beside Somerset chimed in eagerly, trying to please him. Oh, you. I’ll remember your face. At the low-quality joke, Dedrick furrowed his brows. Somerset raised his voice even more. “Why the frown? Is the light too dazzling after being in the dark for so long?” He…
