Chapter 40 Trial Since their last meeting was caught by the Grand Duchess, it had become much harder for Meisel to enter the Grand Duke’s estate. In the end, Marzella had no choice but to take leave and visit the Count of Avoir’s estate herself. As soon as the parlor door closed, Meisel, who had been acting excited in front of the maids by claiming that her nanny had arrived, abruptly changed her mood. Of course, this was the Meisel that Marzella was familiar with. “You should’ve told…-

Chapter 13 “…I told you not to endure it if you’re hurt.” “Ah.” “I want you to tell me if you’re hurt. And try not to get hurt in the first place.” “I will.” It felt nice to be worried about after so long. “Wait a second. Let me grab some gloves.” I couldn’t touch them with my bare hands. “Don’t you dare do it alone while I’m gone!” I warned him sternly, just in case. Dedrick nodded meekly. “Alright. Be careful.” I slipped into the…-

Chapter 5 The Grand Duchess’s Stubbornness “Wouldn’t it be better to just leave her at the campsite?” “Are you planning to start a war with the Marquis’ house by letting her be eaten by beasts?” As the argument among the knights grew more heated, a younger knight suddenly interrupted. “That’s too much! How could you say such things about a noblewoman?” ‘Yeah, take that, you awful knights!’ I vigorously nodded in agreement from behind the carriage where I was…

Prologue It all began one morning with a single piece of mail delivered to Histein Roat's office. “Sir.” Histein, who had come to work earlier than usual, frowned as his secretary, Ricard, held out a thick envelope. It was an unexpected letter for so early in the morning. “It arrived from Attorney Donaus of Lombelli Law Firm.” Why would that troublesome, exhausting lawyer be contacting him? Using the letter opener lying on his desk, Histein broke the wax seal and unfolded the…-

Chapter 33 Gemma stopped in her tracks and glared at the man named Arnold, as if she wanted to kill him. “Don’t call the Duchess by her name so casually.” “….” “We’re not the only ones at fault here. You’re not the only one holding the cards.” “But it’s true that it’s more favorable for me.” Gemma gritted her teeth, and the man shrugged lightly. “I’m not planning to do anything. I just want you to listen to my offer.” She turned around irritably and…

~Chapter 12~ And then he left. Bella didn’t miss the sneer that lingered at the end of his words. “Did he just mock me?” She wanted to believe she was being oversensitive, that he didn’t mean it that way, but no matter how many times she thought about it, she reached the same frustrating conclusion. Cedric knew about the Listerwell family’s intentions in sending Harriet to the convent. He also knew that Bella’s attempt to speak with him was merely a side act of that. On top of…-

Chapter 012 “You dare…!” Facing the unwavering blue eyes staring at him, Somerset faltered for a moment, stepping back instinctively. This gave Dedrick just enough time to barely dodge Somerset’s reckless swings. A sharp breeze brushed past Somerset’s neck, sending a chill down his spine. ‘If he had learned swordsmanship…’ The reason Dedrick hadn’t learned to wield a sword was simple: Delani had stopped him. Using his small and weak body as an excuse, Delani had…

Chapter 80 Late at night, Gemma quietly entered Delani’s room. She gently woke her up. “Madam, the investigation is complete.” Delani immediately sat up. Gemma wrapped a shawl around her shoulders, and the two headed to the living room. “Come in.” At Gemma’s command, a man hesitantly entered. “Madam, Luan was also attacked by something invisible, just like Somerset and Axel.” “Are you sure?” At Gemma’s signal, Luan spoke nervously. “I—I don’t remember…

Chapter 45 Advice from the Knights: Loic suddenly stopped walking. “Right? Don’t you think so?” Demiche gestured to the other knights behind him. “Y-yes, I think so.” “What’s different about him?” “Did he get a haircut?” The knights whispered from behind, unsure but curious. Loic cleared his throat awkwardly. “There’s definitely something different about him today.” Then, Leon, who was standing in the back, raised his voice. “I think it’s his…

~Chapter 31~ “You’ve had a bit too much to drink, Sir Julian.” A large shadow fell between Harriet and Julian. Julian, who had been frowning with irritation, looked surprised the moment he saw the person. “D-Duke Kailas…!” Even in his drunken state, he recognized the man right away—so maybe he wasn’t as drunk as he seemed. Both Harriet and Julian froze as Cedric slowly stepped forward, his gaze fixed on Julian. “Is something the matter? You were raising your voice,…
