Chapter 10 When Noah’s name came up, Elissa suddenly lifted her head so quickly that her hair fluttered. “Judging by how loudly he cries, it doesn’t seem like he is unable to make a sound. Have you found out why he doesn’t speak?” “Yes. I am doing my best to find out.” “Hmm, it doesn’t look that way to me. If you were really doing your best, you wouldn’t have left the child like that.” “I have never neglected him.” Elissa spoke each word with force. Her weak and…-

Chapter 09 Without even having time to calm her surprise that the woman knew her identity exactly, Elissa learned another shocking fact and opened her eyes wide. Her blue eyes trembled greatly. “Why would Lord Grenville……?” “Who knows? Perhaps for the same reason as you, Miss?” That couldn’t be. Elissa did not know the exact reason, but she was certain that was absolutely not it. Still, the woman’s ridiculous guess helped her recover from the shock, and another question came to…

Chapter 08 The Ethan I knew and Ethan Esteban were the same person, yet also different people. The conclusion was somewhat strange, but I was still able to let go of the old lingering feelings. Or at least, I thought I had. “……Sigh.” Elisa, who had spent a sleepless night thinking about Ethan, let out a deep sigh and gently pressed beneath her eyes, where dark circles had formed. She had coldly snapped at him, telling him not to pretend they knew each other, yet here she was now. She…

Chapter 07 “Ethan……?” The voice, murmured almost like a whisper, spread throughout the backyard on the breeze carrying the warmth of the spring sunlight. The ribbon tied beneath her chin fluttered in the wind, tickling the back of her neck. Elisa stared blankly up at Ethan, unaware even of that. His pitch-black hair, brushed back to reveal his forehead, his dark eyebrows, and his smooth, handsome face without a single scar despite spending four years on the battlefield were all…

Chapter 06 “Thank you sincerely for inviting me to such a meaningful occasion, Marchioness.” Elissa placed the bouquet she had prepared in advance into Marchioness Brianna’s arms. “My mother wanted to come herself, but because of some family matters… she had no choice but to send me in her place.” “Don’t say that you are lacking. You mustn’t say such things.” The noblewoman, who had tied up her brown hair high just like the Empress and decorated it with pearls, smiled…

Chapter 8 “Yeah, Sis.” “…….” If you have money, anyone can be an older brother, and anyone can be an older sister, right? Unless the owner of this club had completely lost his mind, that was probably the context. “I asked if you called.” The young-looking man took a sip from the glass he had been served. Arang looked at Ji-i from beyond her on-the-rocks drink. Meanwhile, the man sitting to Arang’s right busily carried snacks to her, glancing back and forth between Ji-i and…-

Chapter 7 “Grandfather, I really feel uneasy. Please go to the hospital. Right now. If I keep feeling uneasy, my health will become uncomfortable too.” When it came to his only grandson, Dong-in’s grandfather had something like health anxiety, so those words were more convincing than anything else. After ending the call, his grandfather walked into the hospital and came out in a wheelchair. Fortunately, he had suffered his first heart attack in the hospital lobby, so he was rescued in…

Chapter 6 Dong-in did not trust people. Although it had been tentatively determined that the cause was poor maintenance, the person who had tampered with the car his parents were riding in was none other than his father's driver, whom he had always treated as closely as an uncle. And the person deeply involved in his kidnapping had been his nanny, whom Dong-in had regarded almost like a third parent. So it would actually have been stranger for him to trust people. The only person with whom he…

Chapter 5 His grandfather had told him that working in the same profession for forty years meant that, no matter how ordinary a person had been, by the end of it, they would have gone far beyond having the appearance of a master and would have reached the level of a saint in that field. “Thanks to you.” That was why Dong-in also treated Butler Kang with the respect he deserved, just like his grandfather did. Putting everything else aside, there was no denying that the butler was an extremely…

Chapter 05 The invitation arrived at the Leslie Count’s estate on the third day of Elissa’s severe cold. More precisely, it was an invitation addressed to Countess Leslie. Countess Leslie had gone to her family home after hearing that her mother, Lady Thebe, who was Elissa’s maternal grandmother, had collapsed due to a chronic illness. In her mother’s absence, Elissa checked the invitation. The seal of the Marquis Brianna’s family was stamped in the center of the letter. The invitation…
