Chapter 20 Four or five elaborately dressed young ladies were approaching Lodia. Among them were some who had been lingering near Histein just moments before, and faces Lodia recognized. 'Surely they're not coming here...' Lodia firmly believed they weren't, but the moment she made eye contact with the woman at the front, she resigned herself. Their target was indeed her! "Hello? You're the one accompanying Mr. Roatt as his partner, aren't you?" "Oh, yes..." Lodia swallowed nervously.…-

Chapter 18 A navy blue jacket, matching vest and trousers, a white shirt. The man, dressed in turn, attached blue topaz cufflinks to his sleeves and checked himself in the mirror. In the mirror stood a man with turquoise eyes, his bright, deep golden hair resembling sunlight neatly styled. "Huff..." "Are you nervous?" Rikart asked him as he tied a blue cravat over his white shirt. "A little? That's funny. Me, nervous." "You're human too, sir. It's only natural to be nervous when…

Chapter 08 Alosha raised the hand with the Phoenix Ring on her middle finger toward that handsome, infuriating man who stood there with an easy shrug. “Does this help you understand what I'm talking about?” “That is—” Emil Laos let out a scoff, but the moment he recognized the ring on her finger, his eyes widened. Got him. Alosha slowly lowered her raised hand and looked down at the ring on her finger with satisfaction. “Ahem. Since you said you're tired, I'll keep this…-

Chapter 19 Watching Alosha's desperate acting, Duke Whistler let out a scoff. He rose from his seat, drew his sword, and pointed it at Alosha. “……You seemed to recognize me right up until you passed out, but now you can't remember after waking up?” “Wh-what are you talking about? I really don't… Could you please put the sword away first and let's talk things over?” “Since you say you can't remember, I'll tell you. You are a spy from a neighboring kingdom. When I caught wind…

Chapter 14 "Indeed, our Alosha looks truly beautiful today." "Thank you." She received the compliment somehow, but it didn't make her feel particularly good. Alosha felt she could understand the mindset of a villainess who wants to torment a female lead who's more eye-catching and prettier than herself in a romance fantasy novel. With Alexis as her escort, she arrived safely at the palace, where a masked staff member came out to greet them. "The Nocturne Count's family and their…

18. You Don't Have Any Friends, Do You? The moment she opened the faculty office door and stepped inside, Ha-rin headed straight to the desk of her homeroom teacher, Ms. Park Ga-ryang. "Ha-rin. Welcome." Noticing Ha-rin, the teacher greeted her in a warm voice as she stood up from her seat. At her teacher's bright expression, the tension Ha-rin had briefly harbored gradually melted away. "Let's step into the counseling room for a second." "Okay." She sat facing her teacher inside the counseling room…-

Chapter 11 "It's not stubbornness. I'm saying this because I truly believe I can do it." "Fine. Let's say I help you meet Duke Whistler somehow. The Duke is very different from me. If something irritates him, he might just slit your throat on the spot, you know?" It was frustrating that he didn't seem to consider even the possibility of her succeeding, but Alosha decided to understand the losses he could see as a merchant group head. "Alright. Then help me for just one month. If I die before that,…

Chapter 18 "Are you... Duke Whistler?" The host cautiously asked the man, who looked like he'd never even held a kitchen knife, let alone a sword—a man who didn't seem to be 188cm, nor even 180cm for that matter. "I apologize. Duke Whistler was delayed due to a busy schedule. I am Crawler, the Duke's proxy." "Pardon? But the participant themselves must be present for this auction..." "Please don't worry too much. He said he would attend before the event ends, so please continue with…

Chapter 67 A Sudden Blow It was the same at the perfume shop we entered next. “You know how it is—if you stay on Her Highness’s good side, your business will thrive.” ‘Saying that out loud right now is probably just making things worse…’ But the baron was so eager, wiping sweat from his forehead and trying hard, that it felt awkward to stop him. “What are you waiting for? Go and assist Her Highness.” So the shopkeeper reluctantly introduced a few perfumes to me. None…-

~Chapter 43~ As expected, the Duke of Kylas’s estate was overwhelmingly grand. While the Count of Pellon’s mansion was no small place, this was on an entirely different scale—almost worthy of being called a palace. At the end of the day, it’s still just a house people live in. Harriet tried to calm her nerves before they got the better of her. When the carriage arrived at the entrance, a footman with striking looks approached and politely offered his escort. “Lady Listerwell’s…-
