      by Ember heart — Chapter 24   “Was your previous experience uncomfortable? If there was anything that bothered you, please let me know, and I will take care of it.” “No, no. It’s fine. It’s not like that….” Aurelia hesitated for a moment, watching the usher’s reaction. The usher naturally assumed that Leonard would be performing. It was not easy to tell someone who thought that way that she was the performer today. “I’ll be the one performing today. Mr. Deimus will, um… be…

      by Ember heart — Chapter 23   At this point, it was obvious what Aiden was doing. He must have chosen a piece Aurelia was already familiar with, hoping to make things even a little easier for her. Still, Leonard did not like Aiden’s approach. No musician would be happy to receive sheet music that every pianist had played at least once. If Leonard were Aurelia, he would never choose such an overused piece to prove himself. “Do you even consider her a musician?” Leonard never thought Aurelia was…

      by Ember heart — Chapter 22   It was obvious without even looking. Aiden must have deliberately brought sheet music that Aurelia would be familiar with, hoping to make things even slightly easier for her. But Leonard did not like Aiden’s approach. No musician would be pleased to receive sheet music that every pianist had played at least once. If Leonard were Aurelia, he would never choose such an ordinary, overused piece to prove himself. “Do you even consider her a musician in the first…

      by Ember heart — Chapter 21   “I knew you’d come.” After seeing Aurelia home, Aiden’s final destination was Leonard’s house. The kind of place where thick smoke always poured out through the windows. Whenever Aiden opened the door to Leonard’s house, the smoke seemed almost afraid of the man who had created it, clinging helplessly to Aiden’s body instead. “I was hoping you wouldn’t.” “How long are you planning to stay here? You have plenty of good hotels to choose from, so I…

      by Ember heart — Chapter 24   Eroika hurriedly finished speaking and turned her gaze toward the window, where the trees swayed in the wind. Now that she had said it aloud, she could not understand why she had brought it up in the first place. But Eroika knew one thing. The reason she could now feel even a little more at ease in a place like an orphanage, which had always been a source of fear and psychological discomfort for her, was entirely because of Kaileph. She had not brought it up because she…

      by Ember heart — Chapter 23 Grrr... Perhaps because she had skipped her meal, Eroika's stomach growled loudly. At Kaileph's quiet, almost mocking laugh, she felt her face grow hot. “Cough... What were you doing with the children earlier? You were lifting them up one after another.” Desperate to cover up the embarrassing sound, Eroika decided to say whatever came to mind. He had obviously heard it anyway. “I was giving them airplane rides.” Kaileph did not seem to have any intention of hiding his…

      by Ember heart — Chapter 22   Once again, she wandered through a dream. The orphanage from her past life appeared before her, so horrible that merely looking at it made her feel sick. She saw the classroom where the children studied. There, she saw Shin Ye-jin being bullied. Her pencil was taken away, and she was hit on the head. Shin Ye-jin could not even raise her head. She simply stared down at her desk. This time, it was the dining hall. Someone dumped all the food waste over Shin Ye-jin.…

      by Ember heart — Chapter 24 “I like pearls.” At those words, Raymund was impressed. Seiana and pearls. Just imagining the combination made him think they suited each other perfectly. Come to think of it, wasn’t there a tiara made of pearls in the Imperial Palace? It had been passed down through generations and currently belonged to the Empress, but she never wore it anyway. Should he bring it to Seiana? ‘It would suit Seiana much better.’ Raymund also decided that from now on, he would only wear…

      ICSM 23 Cover
      by Ember heart — ‘Chapter 23 I’m such an idiot. Seriously.’ I laughed at myself because it was so ridiculous. It was absurd that I was still being held back by something from a life that no longer existed, involving someone who didn’t even exist in my current life. I had thought that because we had broken off the engagement, because time had passed, because he was gone… Pedro meant nothing to me anymore. Even after discovering that he had actually deceived me, the things he had trampled over and…

      by Ember heart — Chapter 22   In an instant, only my older brother, Ray, and I were left standing at the entrance of the mansion. “Ahem. Please forgive us for not being able to receive you properly. We had no notice of your sudden visit.” Even my brother sounded a little reproachful, perhaps because he had been caught off guard. Then he glanced at me, as if asking with his eyes whether I had invited Ray. Since I was just as innocent in this matter, I quietly shook my head and asked Ray, “I was…
