"When is Father going back?" "He's waiting to see you wake up before leaving. He talked with the Baron until late last night, and it seems things were resolved well. He said he'll go to work in the afternoon." "He should rest on days like this." With Love's help, I got ready and went downstairs. Father, who had received word that I was coming down, was waiting at the entrance. "Father, you should rest sometimes." "Baron Gohalm taught me an efficient way to organize ledgers. I want to…-

Though Love usually did household chores and didn't provide such evening service, having her nearby made me feel at ease as if I were home. "No? Not at all? We absolutely never fought." "You definitely fought." We didn't fight—I was just unilaterally angry. "It's rare to find someone who would promote your father to viscount, give him a mansion, help with his work, and still accommodate your temperament. Even if His Grace is 'cursed,' he's a hundred times too good for you in this…

The pleasant three months I spent with him while we were dating flashed before my eyes vividly. "I don't need to have lingering feelings." No matter how happy we were, I was the one who let go first, and it's already in the past. "Just hold on a little longer and it will be over. Only the breakup remains, so focus on staying safe." "Lady Ivy." Along with a knock, an elegant voice called for me from outside the door. I got up from the bed and straightened my clothes. Quite some time…

"I know about the family's curse, so you won't let me go easily. I don't plan to leave anyway." "T-that's fortunate then. We can make a contract with the trading company manager." Ibril poured water into a red reagent rolling around and sprayed it on his wound again. After drinking a bottle of the diluted medicine, his wound healed, leaving only a trace as if lightly scratched. Medicine with that level of effectiveness absolutely doesn't exist in the market. "Ah, but first we need to gather…

The twin brothers skillfully moved the cage I was in without encountering any of the staff. By the time we reached what they called the laboratory, Wallit's nosebleed had stopped, and I had become quite composed. For criminals, the twin brothers' actions were careless, and I sensed their threats weren't genuine. Upon arriving at the laboratory, which looked as if knights had just finished brawling there, Ibril pushed aside items on the floor with his foot and placed my cage in a corner. He then…

I still had one day left. If I showed my face at a social gathering tomorrow, people might dismiss the Emperor's approval as a mere rumor and let it fade away. This was because I was a lady from a family without much recognition. 'So I need to escape now.' No matter what excuse about bridal lessons was given, society would not view this favorably. Since the Emperor's approval created an official record, I needed to overturn it early. And I needed to explain this situation well to Isilla…

People on the street fled in panic at the overwhelming force of the Black Knights escorting the Grand Duke's carriage. I grabbed the curtain and watched people's reactions, then felt heavy-hearted and lowered the curtain of the carriage window. 'Isilla saw me.' Of all times, Isilla happened to pass by at that exact moment. What must she have thought? She would glare at me just for seeing Rebecca near Kaien, saying I was flirting, and now she had seen me riding in a carriage with him. 'In…

"Edwin! Kaien collapsed! Kaien......" "Ivy, you’re not the type to jump on a man so openly." Though Edwin made a joke, he hurriedly approached and checked Kaien's neck and pulse. Even though the curse had retreated from Kaien's body, his pale face still had no color. Though he wasn't supposed to die here, his body was cold, and I had terrible thoughts. "Your Grace, wake up, Your Grace." Edwin urgently tapped Kaien's cheek lightly and checked if he was breathing and if his heart was…

The voice was different, but for a moment I thought of Kaien. The man who spoke to me was the third son of Baron Ricalton, who often hung around with Viscount Scott, a person called Wall. Wall smiled maliciously. "You’re quite an impudent lady who likes men, just as Viscount Scott said." Right, birds of a feather flock together. "I think you've mistaken me for someone else, so I'll leave you alone." "Who's sponsoring you? Someone who could drive Viscount Scott out of the capital must be…
