Chapter 44 News from the North “Mmm, this is really good.” I savored the flavorful chicken leg meat inside the busy restaurant. The reaction to the picture menu was much bigger than I expected. I thought it might be popular, but hearing that the restaurant had been packed at lunchtime just two days after putting up the menu board made it impossible for me to stay still. So I dragged Norton out with me on a secret visit. I even asked Leta to get me some plain clothes, and when I…-

~Chapter 15~ So, he could hear everything. I felt a little embarrassed, so I pretended I didn’t hear. “Where’s Father?” Void asked as he sat down. “He said he has a lot of documents to look over.” “Oh, I see.” He replied like he didn’t expect much. But by now, it was obvious. Void asked about Uncle at every mealtime. Even though he knew Uncle wouldn’t appear, he still hoped—just in case. ‘Hmm…’ I held my spoon in my mouth and stared at Void. No matter how I looked,…-

Chapter 53 “I’m not interested.” “Wait, it’s not like that! This is a small social gathering, right? It’s a chance to experience high society before we officially debut as adults. It’s also a great opportunity to build connections.” At that moment, Perez, who had been entertaining the nobles, suddenly moved closer and looked at Ebony with interest. “Oh? And then?” Noticing the attention on her, Ebony stepped even closer to Dedrick and Perez. Lowering her voice slightly,…-

Chapter 50 The Lord’s Intent “I was just admiring the Duke’s outfit because it’s so stylish.” “The outfit… you saw it this morning, didn’t you?” At those words, the Duke shyly brushed his hair back. “It looks even better when seen from the outside.” The Duke was wearing a high-neck shirt with gold buttons and a double-button vest, which was one of the top 10 idol outfits I had picked out from watching many fan-cams. ‘You’re my spring!’ I almost started gushing…

Chapter 22 Resolution Loic ordered the kitchen to use plenty of fruit in all desserts. Fruits were rare in Blenheim during winter. Still, the head chef seemed determined to fulfill the duke’s first request. Desserts from the following day were laden with fruit, almost too much. Loic, who had started paying special attention to desserts, quickly noticed the change. Everything was like that. Things that he had never given much thought to before suddenly became real when the young woman…

~Chapter 29~ Trisha’s advice had been right. It was fortunate that Harriet remembered the song the Countess sang at Viscount Ainborough’s house three years ago. It seemed she had passed the first hurdle successfully. The bright expression on the Countess’s face, much like when she greeted Trisha, was proof of that. Of course, just entering the party smoothly didn’t mean the night’s challenges were over. In fact, things were only just beginning. Look at how the faces of the people who…-

~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 26 I turned to face Dedrick, smiling, and he awkwardly looked away, lowering his eyes. “Are you uncomfortable?” I asked. “……” “It must be really uncomfortable. You can sleep on the bed if you want.” “I’m going to sleep now,” he replied, hurriedly shutting his eyes and pretending to sleep. So Cute. To reassure him I wasn’t going to kick him out, I patted his arm and closed my eyes too. The warmth of our foreheads touching made it easy to fall asleep. Even…

Chapter 42 “This time, I won’t let it slide! You always got beaten up and never said a word, but now you ran to Father and badmouthed about us? I won’t forgive you!” “If you did something wrong, you should be punished! The one who hits is guilty, not the one who gets hit!” Even though Axel couldn’t hear me, I still shouted at him. “I’ll get revenge.” “In what way?” Tell me. I need to know so that my Dedrick can prepare in advance. But Axel didn’t answer.…

Chapter 57 As soon as the door opened, Perez stepped inside as if he had been waiting. “Let’s have a chat. You wait outside.” “Yes, Your Highness.” After dismissing his attendant, Perez personally locked the door and led Dedrick further inside. “So, where’s the wardrobe monster?” “…First of all, please forgive my rudeness.” “Rudeness?” Dedrick didn’t bother hiding his displeasure as he spoke to the prince. “Mary is not some…
