Chapter 22 “State your condition.” “Think of me as a close friend, and when we’re together, let me see her freely.” “…” “I have a lot of affection for you, and I’m curious about the girl too. Of course, I’ll respect you as a person!” It wasn’t a bad condition. Actually, it was good. Perez seemed eager to maintain a long-term connection with Dedrick. If we shared a secret like this, things would definitely work out in Perez’s favor. “Dedrick, accept it. It’s…-

Chapter 21 I was still learning how to read, so I couldn’t make out everything. But as I pieced together the letters written in a straight line, it looked like a name. “Lil… Lian? No, Liliana?” “No!” Dedrick, startled, reached out to grab the paper in my hand, but I quickly pulled my arm back. I looked up at him with a mischievous grin as his face turned red. “Is this my name? Are you giving me a name?” “Uh, well…” He scratched his neck, avoiding my persistent gaze. He…

Chapter 20 I quickly moved to the Grand Duchess’s wardrobe. It was still quiet, perhaps because she hadn’t arrived yet. Carefully, I stepped out of the room and checked my surroundings. In the distance, I saw the Grand Duchess. She was heading into a nearby parlor, so I hurried to slip in through the door before it closed. “This matter needs to be settled here and now,” she said. “Mother!” “What other choice do we have? The fact that the prince’s belongings were found in…

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 18 The more I attacked Dedrick, the more his favor increased, so the Duchess chose to stay quiet. ‘This feels so satisfying.’ I smirked at her, but then her gaze shifted to somewhere else. Following Delani, I turned my head and saw a maid nodding before leaving her seat. ‘She must be waiting for this moment.’ Just like in the novel. And just as expected, another servant approached Dedrick. “Young Master, it’s reading time.” I quickly spoke. “Didi, don’t…

Chapter 17 To get a better look, I leaned out over the railing and observed him. Under the sunlight, his reddish-brown hair shimmered strangely. Beneath his neat hair, deep green eyes were visible. His smooth nose and soft pink lips were placed nicely on his face. ‘He’s definitely the male lead!’ Even though he was still a boy, he was already handsome in a tall, striking way. Not quite as handsome as Dedrick, though. In the novel, he had a righteous personality. He was clear about his…

Chapter 016 It wasn’t exactly a funny comment, but Dedrick didn’t seem upset. In fact, he looked rather pleased. “So, you know about the Duchess and my mother, right…?” “I know.” I didn’t bother hiding it. Anyone who had been here long enough would know about that incident. And even if they didn’t, I’d already seen everything in the novel. “…I’m scared of the Duchess.” “Me too. Who would’ve thought she’d put anti-theft magic on the keepsakes? She’s a…

Chapter 15 “……” Delani smirked mockingly, crossing her legs as she glanced up and down at Dedrick with a cold gaze. The cherished son of the Duke and Amelia, who inherited only their best traits and was raised with love. Delani hadn’t forgotten the humiliation she’d recently suffered, and she sought comfort by taking it out on Dedrick, who resembled the Duke. “Did you receive the keepsake?” “……” “I had no intention of giving it to you, though…” Delani ground her…

Chapter 14 “Ugh…” Axel let out a groan as his hair was pulled. Ignoring him, I grabbed his head and dragged him off the bed. “Aaaah!” Thud! When he rolled off the bed, I gave him a hard kick to the backside. Whack! “Ouch! W-Who’s there?! Who is it?!” Axel screamed, yanking at the bell rope frantically. A maid, startled awake, rushed in. “Oh no, young master Axel!” “There’s… there’s someone here! Someone pulled my hair and kicked me in the butt!” “Um… Did…

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…
