~Chapter 11~ The fact that his twin brother had been chosen by the princess and made into a duke was the most painful thing for Benedict. “Damn luncheon…!” Every time he thought about it, his teeth clenched. The luncheons hosted regularly by the Empress every quarter were boring events where one had to agree with the idle chatter of the older ladies. Benedict, who had gone with his mother a few times and ended up completely exhausted, generously passed this task to his younger brother,…-

~Chapter 10~ At my uncle’s house, I always carried stomach medicine with me. I constantly had diarrhea or constipation, and it was normal for me to have gas or stomach pains, so I just accepted it as part of life. But since coming to the monastery, except for the first few days, I haven’t had any stomach discomfort at all. ‘Why is that? Is it really because this place is blessed by God?’ Even though I didn’t believe in miracles, I couldn’t help but wonder. As I thought about it…

~Chapter 09~ Ding-. Ding-. The sound of the bell from the tower echoed, waking the monastery that was still shrouded in darkness. Dawn was approaching, but it was still so dark that without a lamp, you couldn’t even tell the front from the back of your clothes. Harriet sluggishly got out of bed. “Ugh, I’m so stiff.” As she stretched, her bones and joints creaked from being pressed against the hard bed. She wanted to sleep more, but she knew if she lazed around, she’d miss breakfast…

~Chapter 08~ However, Cedric still didn’t say anything and just touched his lips. He seemed a bit upset. Noticing this, one of the men quickly lowered his voice and carefully apologized. “I’m sorry for bringing up that incident. It must still bother you…” “No, not at all. It’s just… I said it was fine back then, but I still wonder why she had to be sent to the convent.” Then, the man who started the conversation quickly responded. “That incident only finally broke…

~Chapter 07~ “If you go out of your room and keep going to the right, you’ll see stairs on your left. Go down there, and it’s on the left. I’ll tell you what you’ll need to do tomorrow after breakfast. Please finish unpacking by the end of the day.” Harriet nodded. She had a lot of questions out of anxiety, but she felt like if she asked more, she’d be looked down upon for no reason. Emma didn’t add any further explanation and immediately walked away. Harriet stood there dazed for…

~Chapter 06~ The House of Kailas is a family worthy of respect, having led the Kifren War to victory. When no one else stepped forward because there was nothing to gain, the House of Kailas led their troops solely out of loyalty to the imperial family. If it hadn’t been for them, who knows how far the Kifren War would have spread into the empire’s mainland? The losses they endured to achieve victory were also enormous. The Saint Clarissa Monastery, which had sent medical personnel to the front…

~Chapter 05~ Cedric seated Benedict and naturally took the head of the table, nodding at the butler. Then, the servants who had been waiting began placing delicious-looking dishes on the long table, and the atmosphere in the banquet hall became lively. Cedric waited for wine to be poured into everyone’s glasses before he spoke. “I’d like to thank everyone once again for attending my father’s funeral and paying your respects. Although the head of the family has changed unexpectedly, I hope…

~Chapter 04~ Aston asked Bella with a face full of curiosity as if he was dying to know. At his words, the expressions of the Viscount Listerwell and his wife mirrored Aston’s curiosity. When they first heard Bella’s plan to “pin a brooch on Harriet’s dress, a brooch that she couldn’t even dream of owning,” they thought Bella would handle it well and didn’t ask many questions. But if the brooch’s owner was the Duke of Kailas, it became a different story. “I’m curious too,…

~Chapter 03~ She thought he wouldn’t even look at her, but unexpectedly, he turned his head toward Harriet and briefly made eye contact with her. His gaze was so piercing that Harriet clenched her teeth and lifted her chin, refusing to back down. It was probably only for two or three seconds, but to Harriet, it felt like a long time. Just as she thought his gaze seemed to soften for a moment, John spoke solemnly. “I sincerely want to apologize. I’ll send my nephew to a convent to reflect on…

~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,…
