‘This is all I know.’

I don’t know if I didn’t read the story after that, or if I read it but I can’t remember it. But I guess roughly.

The crown prince is the male lead. Noah is a sub male lead in the dark. I don’t know how to stop the power holder of Ajas, who is so powerful that he is called a human weapon, but of course Noah will be executed with the crown prince’s victory. And the crown prince and April will live happily ever after.

“Oh, what am I going to do with this now?”

The body I was born with, ‘Raenel’, plays a very important role in this story. Not only does she form Noah’s crooked personality, but she also plays the role of Cupid, who brings Noah and April together.

‘If I get out of here, I’ll get out completely.’

Noah will not be abused and grow up right, but the opportunity for April to find Her father disappears. Perhaps it could be a life-or-death situation with Noah, who grew up as a barbarian and became the Marquis of Ajas.

But what if I go to the Marquis of Ajas and abuse Noah for the sake of the original work? Not only me, but also the Howard family are completely destroyed.

‘That’s not allowed!’

I Can’t be like this, I can’t be like that. What the hell am I supposed to do with this?

‘In other novels, the main characters are possessed to awaken special abilities or remember all the names of valuable information and get hit with money…’

special ability? does not exist.

A memory that makes money? It’s been 19 years since I was reincarnated in the first place. It’s a relief to just remember the story of the book I read then!

‘Why did I read this book in the first place?’

I can’t remember, but I think someone gave it to me to read…I should’ve eaten a chicken at that time.

‘I do not know! It’s ruined, it’s ruined!’

* * *

At that time, in front of Raenel’s room.

“Oh, what am I going to do…”

Helen, who took her ear off the door and stamped her feet, came down the stairs and hurriedly knocked on the count’s office.

“Who is it?”

“This is Helen, Count.”

“come in.”

Helen hurriedly opened the door of the office and entered and bowed to count.

“Meet the Count.”

“What about Nell?”

“that is…”

It was Helen, who had been ordered to keep an eye on Nell’s movements just in case from the moment she locked herself in the room alone.

She carefully conveyed what had been heard from beyond the closed door. Oliver let out a sigh in spite of himself.

“She seems very heartbroken…”

“yes. It’s past snack time, but she is not looking for snacks.”

Raenel had simply forgotten it because she was concentrating on recalling the contents of the book, but Oliver, who had no way of knowing it, put on a serious expression.

“Forgot to eat snacks? Is that the kid who routinely says that eating is fun?”

“yes. I was waiting outside just in case, but She didn’t call me at all.”

“Huft…”

Oliver buried himself in the chair and ran his palm over his face.

Well, at the first debutante ball, except for her family, she only received one rose. This was very embarrassing to Lady.

‘I was guessing, but…’

Of course, the biggest reason for the loss was that it overlapped with Lady Norman’s debut.

Lady Norman. She was the only daughter whom Count Norman cherished very much. He deliberately delayed her social debut because he didn’t want his daughter to marry early.

However, the lady Norman who fell in love with Duke Khalid by chance met her at first sight and wanted to marry him.

No matter how much the Count of Normans amassed enormous wealth through trade with the East Continent, it was not easy for the count’s daughter to become the duke’s wife, even though the duke’s family had no money.

However, Duke Khalid is a widower. So it was a remarriage, besides it is lady Norman, he could stare at her.

‘Perhaps he tried to give her a rose.’

Actually, Oliver guessed it too. So, if possible, he wanted to delay Raenel’s debut, but if he gives up this banquet, there will be no banquet that will make her socialite debut before the year ends.

In two months, a New Year’s celebration will be held at the imperial palace. At that time, Young ladies and Young men, who will become adults next year, can receive alcohol from the emperor. It was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for even a small nobleman to receive a drink from the emperor.

Getting an alcoholic drink from the emperor! It was a very honorable thing, but it was not something to brag about openly because it is something that everyone who becomes an adult can receive every year.

Instead, if you don’t get it, you’ll be teased in society. And if that target becomes Raenel, it will not be ignored, but will become a laughing stock.

Because of this, Oliver planned to send Raenel to the palace to get a drink from the emperor, even if the house caught fire. To do that, he had to make her social debut before New Year’s Day.

‘If I had known it would be like this, I would have Made your debut a long time ago…’

Oliver couldn’t forcefully send Raenel If she didn’t like it, so this was the result of delaying her debut. If marquis Ajas had not given his rose to Raenel, she would have been a laughing stock.

‘Rather than being laughed at for being an idiot who only received one rose… It would be better for Nell to talk about the fact that the person who gave her the rose was the Marquis Ajas.’

In fact, Oliver didn’t like that either. However, considering the attitude that Marquis Ajas showed towards Raenel at the banquet yesterday, it seemed that a short intertwined relationship would be fine.

‘At least I don’t think he is a prostitute who treats women carelessly.’

Besides, Raenel also liked his appearance. It would be okay for an unmarried man and woman to go on a date. Of course, if that goes on for a long time, the names of the two will come up in people’s mouths…

Are there one or two men and women of marriageable age? Even that people will be more interested in the remarriage of Duke Khalid than Marquis Ajas, who rarely comes to the capital.

By that time, Raenel’s name will be forgotten in people’s heads. At that time, she should find a true and respectful man and marry him quietly.

‘If she can’t find a man like that, she can just live with me.’

‘If It’s about one Nell, I have enough to feed her and live on.’

Because of that, Oliver was delaying his engagement as much as possible. Promising that he would never marry a woman unless she allowed him to take care of his sister-in-law until he died, Oliver took out stationery and wrote out an invitation.

“John.”

“Yes, Count.”

“Deliver this letter to Marquis Ajas, who is staying at the Crimson Hotel.”

“What should I do with the reply?”

“Take it right away. It is not a difficult letter to answer.”

Three hours later.

In the letter John brought, the answer was written that the Marquis of Ajas would be happy to do so.

* * *

“Young lady.”

“Uh…”

“Wake up, lady. A guest is coming in a little while!”

“What the guests…”

To be a guest to me who doesn’t even remember the last time I went out. That kind of lie didn’t work even when I was five years old.

‘No, I went out on the day of the prom a few days ago.’

Because I didn’t believe it, I buried my face in the pillow again, satisfied.

“Really! Marquis Ajas has decided to come today!”

“Who is that…what? Who is coming as a guest?”

“Marquis Ajas!”

Helen pulled me under the bed as if there was no time for this. With the dumbfounded me sitting on the chair, Lily’s maid, Sarah, was also attached to wash and comb me.

After washing my face with warm water, I finally came to my senses. In the meantime, knowing that I was going to say I was hungry, Helen brought out a small sandwich and put it in my mouth, so I changed into my clothes as they told me to.

“No, why does he come to my house? Is he going to see my brother?”

“What does he have to do with the Count? Of course he is coming to see you!”

“No, I…”

Come to think of it, when I did my first dance.

Heck, that’s right.

“I haven’t made a bookmark yet?”

“Don’t worry, lady. Who am I?”

Helen brought me a bookmark made pretty by using the original of the bright red petals.

“I cast a spell with the help of Lady Brilliana. So the petals will not wither.”

“Wow, Helen is the best. thank you!”

“If you really appreciate it, take a seat now. Time to put on makeup is running out, now.”

I sat down on the chair and politely offered my face to Helen. Helen and Sarah snuggled next to me, each carrying cosmetics and magic irons developed by my sister Lily.

While my face, which I originally thought was very pretty, was getting prettier, my sister Lily came to the room.

“Oh My God, our Nell, how pretty are you? you’re like a fairy!”

“Then I look like my sister, but do I have to be pretty?”

“Of course you have to be pretty!”

While laughing and playing with Lily, Helen and Sarah finished my makeup and took out the accessory box. It was Lily’s job to choose one of the jewels.

“Okay, this would be the best.”

What Lily chose was a star ruby set with six lines of starlight in the center.

On my eighteenth birthday, my sister Lily gave it to me as a gift.

“How is it, do you like it?”

“Of course I like it!”

After all, that time when my sister winked and said I was the best.

John knocked on the door and spoke outside.

“My lady, a guest, has arrived.”

“Is my brother welcoming him anyway? Tell him to wait a little longer!” Lily said.

“What should I say If they ask How long they have to wait?.”

“Whether it’s my brother or the Marquis, if they ask about that, say it’s an old-fashioned thing to ask.”

“All right.”

Hearing John’s sigh along with that voice, I gave Lily a light scolding.

“Sister, why do you say that?”

“why?”

“I wonder if John will do what you say.”

“Hmm… he heard and so it is.”

Lily, who put the necklace on my neck, said while looking at me in the mirror and touching my hair.

“Then would you like to come down a little earlier?”

“Shall I?”

When I thought about it, I was a little curious about what the two would be talking about.

Lily and I cautiously descended to the first floor, signaled to the waiting servants to be quiet, and entered an empty room next to the room where my brother and Leonhard are.

Closing the door safely without being caught by my eldest brother or Leonhard, I listened to the voice from the next room through the wind magic that Lily had carried.

-That is…she sounds like she will take a while.

“You’re such a nice guy! You’re such a straightforward guy!”

Sister lily glared at the wall with a disapproving face at the voice that came just in time.

I put my index finger to her mouth just in case Lily’s voice spilled over the wall!

-Sorry, Marquis. I made you wait for a visit request from this side.

‘huh? what? Did Brother invite Leon?’

“Oh, I know now.”

On the day I returned early from Duke Khalid’s residence, he said he didn’t like my marriage partner. Why did you invite him to your house?

-It’s okay. Actually, I wanted to talk more with Count Howard.

‘What?!’

You said you wanted to talk more with my older brother instead of me?

Don’t tell me, that’s not it, right? It’s not like you have been hiding something from me, right?
