Chapter 9 “R-Run away?” What? Did he find out? How did this man know about my perfect plan to go down to my estate and shut myself away there? Flustered, I quickly shifted my eyes around. Then, he smiled pleasantly as he calmly drank his tea. “I was joking. You look so flustered. Surely you weren’t actually planning to do that?” It was a joke? That was a relief, but my heart had already taken a beating as though it had been viciously hacked to pieces. First, calm down.…-

Chapter 8 “What?” “The ring. The ruby ring you always wore on your right hand. I understand that it’s the head-of-household’s ring, isn’t it?” “Ah, I lost it a few days ago.” “My goodness, losing such an important ring. You really shouldn’t have done that.” Sylvia looked at my hand with an expression full of concern. But contrary to her words, she didn’t look concerned at all. If anything, she even gave me a meaningful little smile…… What was that supposed…

Chapter 7 ‘Well, this is troublesome.’ Trying my best to appear calm and unaffected, I lifted my teacup and swallowed hard. ‘Of all people, why did she have to beat up that man?’ There was a reason I found the Valentine siblings so unpleasant. ‘Let’s start with the eldest daughter, Sylvia.’ Our relationship had gone sour back at the academy. More precisely, it had happened when I refused to join her faction. As the daughter of a count, Sylvia always wanted to be at the…

Chapter 6 “……Marquess. Are you sure this is the right place?” “I suppose it is.” At Laura’s deeply dissatisfied voice, I nodded weakly. Then, with a complicated feeling in my heart, I stared at the old building in front of me. The sign hanging above the building bore the faded words, ‘Pawnshop.’ It must have been incredibly old and worn, because even part of the first character had already fallen off. This was on an entirely different level from the high-class pawnshops…

Chapter 5 [The shocking dishonorable dismissal of Leon Obsidian, Grand Duke of Bernstein, has become the talk of the town. Early this morning, the Grand Duke informed the Imperial Family that he could no longer fulfill his duties as a holy knight. In response, the Imperial Family has notified the temple of the matter and requested, in accordance with regulations, that the Grand Duke be dismissed from his position as Commander of the Holy Knights.] [Meanwhile, the Grand Temple continues to…

Chapter 4 What just happened? I stared blankly up at him. I was so shocked that I could only blink, and in my field of vision, I saw his clear eyes smiling brightly at me. They looked almost excessively innocent, completely at odds with the way they had been so intimately entwined with mine just moments ago. “J-Just a moment, Your Highness.” Finally coming to my senses, I held out a hand toward him. The man's brows furrowed slightly. I wondered if he had misunderstood it as me…

Chapter 3 He’s still blindingly beautiful. Swallowing nervously, I looked him over carefully. Golden hair that shone brilliantly like the sun, and clear aquamarine eyes so beautiful that I hesitated even to meet his gaze. Smooth, fair skin, a high and perfectly straight nose, and lips that curved gently upward at the corners. If an angel from one of the temple murals were to descend into the real world, wouldn't he look exactly like this? The fact that he was wearing a pure-white uniform…

Chapter 2 No, this couldn’t possibly be true. This was absolutely ridiculous! “Laura, Laura!” “Yes! What is it?! A headache? Dizziness?” At my shout, Laura burst through the door. “You know…… why. Last week, when I didn’t come home…….” I glanced at Laura and spoke carefully. I wanted to ask, “Did I happen to spend the night somewhere last week?” but I had no idea what kind of misunderstanding that might cause. So instead, I deliberately tried to sound as…

Chapter 1 “That's impossible.” Erna Zacherete. 22 years old. Over the past several years, I could confidently say that I had lived a relatively smooth life. Born as the daughter of a prestigious marquis family, I had grown up without lacking for anything. There had been some rather unhappy times, but I had overcome them all by now and was faithfully living each day as the head of my family. At least, until just moments ago. “Say that again. Laura. What exactly did I………

Chapter 12 The Forty-Year-Old Man Hides His Age (4) Perhaps because I had sweated everything out and slept soundly in bed, the cold symptoms I had the previous day had completely disappeared. The day after the twenty-third-round match against Real Valladolid. Nicholas had just opened his eyes and sat up in bed feeling refreshed. The sunlight pouring through the window felt wonderful. It seemed to reflect his current physical condition. No fever. No cough. No headache. His body felt a…-
