Chapter 47 “From now on, Didi, you have to call me Mary. Okay?” “Okay, Mary.” Hearing him call my name made me smile again. He smiled brightly too. ‘Wow, this feels really good!’ I finally had a name. This was the first name that was really mine, except for one from a previous life that I hardly remembered. No one had ever known me before. I was always alone. But Dedrick had stamped my existence into this world. From the moment he first saw me, he had saved me in a…-

Chapter 59 Dedrick was about to be held accountable, but then a distinct voice cut in from a distance. “You all know that’s nonsense, right? Calling him unlucky… Dedrick was just standing there. Lord Somerset and Lord Axel fell because of their own carelessness.” It was Ebony. Joanna glared at her, but she knew she couldn’t change Dedrick’s reputation by speaking up herself. ‘I believe you’ll do well at this banquet.’ ‘Don’t disappoint us again, Joanna.’ Her…-

Chapter 19 I’m glad I made a good first impression. In the novel, Perez clears up the misunderstanding with Dedrick and comes to recognize him, becoming a reliable ally. Even now, in a brief conversation, Perez could easily tell that Dedrick wasn’t the type of person to do what was being accused of him. He had a sharp eye. “How about checking Dedrick’s room, Your Highness?” Somerset straightened up and suggested confidently. She glanced at Dedrick with a smug smile, clearly trusting her…

Chapter 77 “……Why are you here?” “I felt uneasy after leaving like that… and Somerset wanted to apologize too, so we came together. May we come in for a moment?” The veins on Dedrick’s jaw tensed. “I’m busy right now…” “Hey, we’re here to apologize. Let’s talk inside.” Without waiting for permission, Somerset shoved past him and entered the room—only to stop in his tracks. “Mother.” At Somerset’s signal, Delani stepped inside. She glanced around…

~Chapter 4~ Lady Eurice, overseer of the Imperial Rieta Orphanage, widened her eyes. “Your Grace?” It was because of the sudden appearance of Leviathan Jebert, looking disheveled. He had been her classmate back in the Academy. “What on earth is the matter?” She had never seen him so frantic before. His pristine dress uniform was badly wrinkled, his black hair soaked through with rain. The great knight himself was panting for breath—how far had he run? “I heard there was a…-

~Chapter 23~ What? “I think you misspoke just now.” “Uh.” He looked thoroughly flustered. Seeing an adult so awkward because he thought I was mad felt strange and a bit fascinating. Looking up at that massive body—which somehow seemed less imposing today—I spoke clearly. “I’m not mad. I was surprised yesterday, but I wasn’t upset. I’m the one who’s sorry for yelling so rudely.” I bowed deeply from the waist. I could feel a prickling stare on the top of my head. Crash.…

Chapter 06 An Unexpected Feast “What?” The Knights, who had been focused on their meal, paused mid-bite. I thought they were too busy eating to pay attention, but apparently, they had been listening to me all along. The atmosphere at the table instantly turned icy. “I’m joking. I didn’t mean to suggest I was spying on you.” Sensing the sharp gaze of Hedrick, who was silently chewing his meat, I quickly added, “I just thought you wouldn’t stay long in the capital. Since you…-

~Chapter 14~ The maids stood in front of the east room as if in silent prayer. “…This feels strange,” murmured the maid opening the door. The east room—The most prestigious room in the castle, in the best location. “Wait, I’m about to cry again…” “Don’t… You’ll make me cry too.” One maid tilted her head back, pinching the bridge of her nose. Hazel’s eyes also blinked damply. It was a child’s room. A space the duke and duchess had decorated themselves. “My goodness,…

Chapter 43 A Delicious Picture Milo and his wife were passing through Goldrain. They were on their way back home after selling the wool they had gathered over the winter. “How about we stop to eat?” Milo asked his wife. They had left early in the morning, but it had taken longer than expected to negotiate prices. If they had gone straight home now, they would have missed mealtime completely. “I am feeling a bit hungry,” His wife replied, glancing around with a hesitant…
