Chapter 2 “Is this a dream…?” I lightly slapped my cheek. It hurt. I guess this was reality. “Am I really going to work here?” Just a few weeks ago, I had been staying up all night worrying about where I should find a job and frantically sending out résumés. But fate really was a strange thing. Who could have known that the chairman of the hiking club I'd happened to join was a director at Daesung Group—and a member of its royal family at the same time? “Of course,…-

Chapter 1 “So, what do you think this is?” “Hey. If you guess this one too, I’ll give you ten thousand won.” “Isn’t ten thousand a little cheap?” “Okay. Fifty thousand won!” I closed my eyes for a moment and focused on the bag. Soon, a sharp, fresh scent, almost like the smell of grass, stung my nose. “You brought cucumbers, didn’t you?” “!?” “What? Judging by this guy’s expression, it looks like he got it right. Are they really…

Chapter 11 It did not take long to prepare the carriage. The coachman had assumed there would be no reason to use the carriage with the rain coming down so heavily. But the moment he heard that the young lady was going out, he hurriedly got everything ready. Elenor apologized to the coachman, who had rushed around so frantically that his clothes were soaked through by the rain. The coachman gave a hearty laugh and told her it was all right. Shaking the rain off his cloak, he quickly climbed onto…-

Chapter 10 After leaving the Grand Duke of Raiwens’s residence and getting into the waiting carriage, Elenor finally let out a long sigh. As she smoothed the wrinkles in her dress and thought about what lay ahead, she felt a piercing gaze and raised her head. The Grand Duchess of Frihosen, sitting across from her, was staring at Elenor with an expressionless face. When Elenor met her mother’s direct gaze, she felt a little awkward. Does Mother think I did something wrong? But Elenor…

Chapter 9 Elenor could easily see what the Grand Duchess of Raiwens was getting at with her roundabout question about why she had taken so long to arrive. She wanted to laugh out loud. This woman really does think I’m stupid. Elenor deliberately put on a miserable expression and let out a deep sigh before slightly lifting the hem of her dress to reveal her foot. She had already changed back from slippers into shoes before coming here, so the bandage was stained with blood from the wound. The…

Chapter 8 Meanwhile, when Helena received no response from Elenor, she puffed out her cheeks and said, “El. Why aren’t you saying anything? Ah! Is your injury worse than I thought? This won’t do. I’ll go get the physician right away…!” “No. I already saw the physician and received treatment a little while ago. It isn’t a serious injury either. Hmm. Is this the first time I’ve called you by your nickname?” When Elenor changed the subject, Helena, who had looked ready to jump up…

Chapter 7 Had something changed in her? Unlike before, when she had treated him warmly, her chilly tone contained not even a trace of warmth. It felt unfamiliar and uncomfortable to Joshua. Why is she suddenly acting like this? Even though they weren't particularly close, ever since Elenor had learned that they were engaged, she had never treated him like a stranger. She had been fairly friendly with him. So Joshua couldn't understand why she was reacting this way today. Just as he was…

Chapter 6 Once Elenor confirmed who the other person was, she immediately looked away. The hand clutching her dress began to tremble. I can't believe I ran into him like this……. Just like Elenor, Joshua wasn't someone who enjoyed attending social gatherings. He was extremely sensitive to people whispering about him. Elenor couldn't believe she had encountered Joshua here. She had vowed that if she ever met him again, she would take revenge. She had even sworn that she would kill him…

Chapter 5 The Grand Duchess's words and manner were cold, but that no longer mattered to Elenor. When she was young, she had thought that because the Grand Duchess always wore such a cold expression and spoke so curtly, she disliked Elenor for being an illegitimate child. So Elenor had avoided her whenever possible. But now she knew. She knew that her mother cared about her and cherished her. She knew that there had been affection hidden within the Grand Duchess's cold gaze whenever she looked…

Chapter 4 Upon hearing the news, Elenor hurriedly changed her clothes and went outside. Although a long time had passed, her room—which she had never once forgotten—was exactly as it had been in her hazy memories. Elenor was excited. At the same time, her heart swelled with emotion until the tip of her nose tingled. After marrying Joshua, Elenor had immediately entered the Imperial Palace, and after that, it had been difficult for her even to leave the palace grounds for a brief…
