Chapter 59 Seo-ah turned back toward him, her voice crystal clear and radiating a sub-zero chill. He hadn't moved an inch. "No." "Would you actually listen to me if I got down on my knees?" His words made Seo-ah's eyes quiver in disbelief. This man... kneeling in front of me? His tall frame, his crisp, immaculate appearance, the disciplined yet graceful air of a trained soldier, and those dark eyes locking squarely onto hers—she hated all of it. She hated the idea of him showing weakness in front of…-

~Chapter 18~ The fear that had once felt like standing on the edge of a cliff was completely forgotten. Self-pity was a luxury she couldn’t afford anymore. Her goal was no longer just about surviving. She felt that the only way she could go on living was by avenging her family, including herself. Someone once said that if a person is tormenting you for no reason, you should give them a reason to do so. “A scandal maker? Fine. If they’re going to call me that, I’ll become a real scandal…-

Chapter 53 What’s a Duchess? “We’re here!” “Auntie! Give us pudding!” The children appeared to range in age from five to nearly ten. Everyone seemed used to the sudden chaos, playfully shouting along. “Hurry up, pudding!” “Oh my, you kids!” Marie and Jacques stood up, startled. While Marie rushed to calm the kids, Jacques turned to me apologetically. “I’m sorry, Your Grace. The children often drop by for snacks at this time.” “It’s fine. No need to…-

Chapter 27 Getting the Recipe “I-I’m sorry, Your Grace! I thought the room was empty!” The maid had entered, carrying a tray with a water jug and cups. “Leave it and go.” “Y-yes!” Startled by his cold tone, the maid quickly placed the tray on the bedside table and rushed out. After all the effort he had put into scolding the Grand Duchess about not visiting him at night… And now, he had been caught watching her sleep. How pathetic. At least the maid had seen them…

Chapter 21 The aide initially thought Reston was joking. No matter how much, no matter how... Come to think of it, he recalled Reston's usual scope of activities. He had little interaction with friends and was a man consumed by his work. Moreover, not only had he never been in a relationship, but the aide had also never seen him show interest in that direction. He spent most of his day with him, after all... "...Regarding romance." The aide opened his mouth with a solemn heart. Perhaps…

Chapter 29 The soft, fluffy texture of his gray hair felt comforting under her touch. The girl carefully patted his head. “…Still, you’re probably in more pain than I am. I’m sorry for crying.” For some reason, she misunderstood, thinking it was her crying that bothered him. Dedrick didn’t bother correcting her. “I’m fine now, Didi,” she said softly. Dedrick pulled away from her embrace and looked at her. Her eyes and nose were red, and she was still sniffling, despite…-

Chapter 44 Delani finally looked up from the catalog and gazed at Axel. Then, she spoke calmly. “You’re not the firstborn.” Axel’s face twisted, almost as if he was about to cry. Did Delani really believe that only the eldest son could inherit the title? It’s been ages since the concept of firstborn inheritance disappeared… “I trust you don’t hold such narrow-minded beliefs about the firstborn inheriting everything in this day and age,” Axel said. Oh… His sarcastic…

Chapter 5 I immediately returned to the Grand Duchess’s wardrobe. From the crack in the door, I could hear the voice of a woman. “So, you’re saying there’s nothing wrong with the anti-theft magic?” “Yes, Madam. It seems someone must have touched it to trigger the magic. Otherwise, there would’ve been no reason for it to activate…” “……” Even after the maid Gemma finished speaking, the Duchess remained silent for a while. Peering through the gap, I couldn’t help…

~Chapter 27~ “She seems to have her own plans, so I’m watching with interest,” Trisha said, smiling widely, which was rare for her. Though they didn’t interact often, Cedric had always seen Trisha with a blank or slightly irritable expression. Seeing her this happy was the first time he could recall such a moment. “It seems you’ve taken a liking to Miss Harriet.” At those words, Trisha’s smile disappeared, and she put on a slightly cold expression, as if embarrassed to have been…
