      by dorothea A few days later, Yvonne was riding in a carriage with her husband. Of course, Emil was following in the carriage behind them. They were all heading to the office together, just like the day they went to see the launching ceremony at the port. It was the day of moving from the temporary office to the new building. Actually, everything had already been moved, but before starting work, he wanted to show it to his family, so they were all traveling together again. Ah...... The building was much more…

      by dorothea Luke came out to go on an outing and had his carriage turn toward the mountain. Stopping at the entrance of the mountain, quite far from the Duke's mansion, he had the carriage wait for a while. Getting out of the carriage, Luke entered the mountain path and began to walk up leisurely. At that moment, someone suddenly appeared. It was a knight with a sword at his waist. There were three of them. "Password." One knight shouted loudly at Luke. "The owl hooted all night." When Luke said…

      by dorothea Wow. Emil burst into cheers repeatedly as he watched the departure ceremony at the harbor. A massive ship stood before his eyes. Flags fluttered and crowds of people bustled about. The atmosphere was as exciting as a carnival. Leon, Yvonne, and Emil, sitting at the top of the fleet, each had different expressions. Leon looked proud, Emil was full of admiration, and Yvonne was both pleased and embarrassed. Her mouth fell open the moment she looked at Leon's ship, having barely had time to…

      by dorothea Even though he had come quickly, when he rushed into the bedroom, Yvonne wasn't there. She seemed to have already gotten up and gone outside. Having run up the stairs until he was out of breath, his chest heaved heavily. Where did she go? He approached the pillow she had been lying on and lifted it. The note he had left was still there, folded neatly in half underneath. Had she read it? No. If she had read it, she wouldn't have gone anywhere. Feeling anxious, he clutched the note and turned…

      by dorothea "What?" When the servant told her the name of the visitor who had just arrived, Yvonne was flustered. It was someone she absolutely did not want to meet. He seemed to have come to see Leon, but Leon wasn't here right now. That meant she would have to meet him. She should have gone down to the village earlier. Then she could have avoided this trouble. "Bring him this way. Tell Nora to serve some cool fruit juice." She invited him to this room, which was being used both as a study and a reception…

      by dorothea The next day when she entered the study, Leon was already sitting in the reception room reading a book. When Yvonne woke up, he had already risen and gone out. He seemed to have had some worries that kept him awake late last night.... He must have moved quietly enough that she didn't notice. His well-dressed appearance was, in truth, too handsome. She wasn't unaware that even the new maids would turn their heads to look at Leon whenever he passed by. "Yvonne." As she was about to leave the study…

      by dorothea "Eve, Eve!" Upon returning to the mansion after two weeks, Emil greeted the couple, jumping up and down excitedly. As soon as he stepped out of the carriage, Leon gazed down intently at the two who were hugging each other tightly, expressing their longing and joy at reunion. They looked like people who had been separated for two years, not just two weeks. He envied their close affection more than ever. "Wow. Wow." Arriving at the temporary living room, Emil opened his gift and could only…

      by dorothea The guests who had already arrived gathered in small groups, expressing their admiration for the magnificent wedding. "Impressive." "As expected of the Clift ducal family, it's so grand." "If this is for the second son, how much more extravagant will the heir's wedding be?" "I can't even imagine! This already looks incredible." "The Heywood daughter struck gold." "Do you really think so?" While that might be true in terms of wealth, they were skeptical about other aspects. "Many…

      by dorothea For several hours, Luke had been unable to work due to a throbbing headache. He seemed to have caught an illness. He knew well how to cure this illness. Luke slowly rose from his seat and prepared to go out. Harold the butler's hands were more careful as he helped dress his master. The master's mood appeared quite uncomfortable now. Luke's eyes glinted darkly as he walked to the waiting carriage. *** Leon, who had left early in the morning, returned late in the evening. As soon as…

      by dorothea Wesley's loud voice from the dining room carried all the way to Leon's nearby room. He was eating alone in his bedroom. It was Yvonne's request. "Could you eat alone today?" She had asked him this a moment ago. She probably didn't want Leon to hear Wesley's ranting. Since Wesley only spoke words that hurt her pride, he immediately understood she was doing this for her own dignity. Understanding her feelings, he had no choice but to grant her request. Her effort to handle things alone was admirable.…
