"A long-term business trip?" Elena looked at Quiet with surprised eyes. The sudden absence of the senior aide who had been her reliable support was unexpected. "We need someone to go to Count Emphraim's territory to observe and make judgments firsthand." Someone who knew the Grand Duke's travel route precisely and could execute the plan was needed. Counting those qualified, there were only three, including Rudfelix. "His Highness the Grand Duke cannot move directly, and sending you would be…-

At one time, Rudfelix needed to meet a woman qualified to become the Grand Duchess. Though he didn't need to marry immediately, it was the former Grand Duke's directive, worried about his son who showed too little interest in women. The former Grand Duke told his son to meet and choose a woman he liked, and Rudfelix did not prevent women from approaching him. He met all women who came to him without discrimination. However, in most cases, they couldn't communicate well, so they would just talk past…

After declaring she wouldn't go home, Elena waited to see how Grand Duke Rudfelix would react. He seemed properly surprised, but besides a slight tremor at the corner of his eye, there was no other reaction. As the silence stretched longer than expected, Elena started feeling awkward. "Won't you answer?" "We'll... stay together." Though his answer seemed reluctant and hesitant, at least it was positive. "But why are you looking at me like that?" What was with that insolent…

Elena immediately shouted when she saw the box being pushed towards her. "I'll accept it." She said that but didn't reach out her hands. When Suharto gave her a questioning look, Elena rubbed her ticklish cheek with the back of her hand. The Grand Duke's gaze wouldn't leave her. Though he was just looking, her cheeks tingled and her throat felt dry. "Could I have one without a peacock feather, or even if it has one, something more ordinary without the gold decorations... something more…

"How great could it be......" Suharto, who reluctantly looked at the Grand Duke due to his complaints, closed his mouth. He could no longer spread rumors about how he always appears in black clothes at every ball, as if he were a crow. He was undoubtedly the most eye-catching swan at today's ball. "Everyone is looking at His Grace." Count Ephraim's words were true. His white skin matching the tailcoat and cool eyes emitted an unapproachable aura. The restrained atmosphere emanating from his…

"Your Highness." Elena sighed. She came to refuse the Crown Prince's gift but ended up causing a misunderstanding with her superior. Elena pondered what to say while facing Rudfelix. 'I didn't do anything wrong.' Her superior's disapproving expression made her feel like a child caught doing something bad. The timing and place couldn't have been worse. She had gone out for lunch and was discovered at the Crown Prince's palace. Elena couldn't believe her luck. 'Nothing I can do about it…

A strange tension filled the conference room. Elena carefully observed the two people sitting across from each other at the conference table. Count Ephraim was a count who owned territory bordering another country. His territory wasn't far from the border region where war was currently raging. The effects of war could reach there at any time. He must have rushed to the imperial capital considering the spreading war might affect his territory. Otherwise, it was extremely rare for a lord of…

Elena returned to organize the remaining documents at the place where she had her interview yesterday. "He's really an unpredictable person." He was someone who could act unpredictably at any moment. "I almost got in trouble acting like I knew everything about him." As Elena placed a document on her right side, she thought of Grand Duke Rudfelix. Since he played a major villainous role in the novel, she thought she knew him well. But from her experience since yesterday, that wasn't the case at…

"What’s your opinion about villains?" Rudfelix frowned at the unexpected question. As he seemed to wonder what this sudden talk of villains was about, Elena quickly added, "I mean the villains in plays who appear to torment the protagonist and then die gloriously. What do you think of them?" "I thought you'd ask something about me, but this is unexpected." 'It's not unexpected, it's about you.' Because in the novel set in this world, Grand Duke Rudfelix was the final boss that the…

Elena was the young lady of the Count of Jellisto family. She was a quiet, elegant, and gentle young lady. She never got excited about anything and had a kind heart that cared for those around her, so everyone liked her. 'Of course, that's because I've been reincarnated into a character with very good conditions.' When she opened her eyes, she found herself inside a novel. That was Elena's exact situation right now. She wasn't the female protagonist, but she wasn't a character destined to…
