Being skilled maids, Emma and Mira quickly helped me get perfectly prepared and brought a mirror in front of me with satisfied smiles.

Looking at myself in the mirror, I saw that I looked like a completely different person.

The white fabric of the princess line had a generous skirt section of lime green embroidery. The collar and long sleeves were edged with white lace, and the subtle makeup looked just right.

The tired face of the woman from yesterday was no longer there.

"As expected, you put too much effort into it, didn't you?"

"What are you talking about! It's your first date today! What's the point if you don't become the world's best princess?"

"That's right. William-sama hated it when the young lady dressed too excessively, so let's show him that the young lady is more beautiful than anyone else this time."

My fiancé did not take kindly to me dressing up glamorously. He was especially strict with exposure, but since he slept with my sister, I really didn't see the point.

"Sorry to keep you waiting! This is my masterpiece!" 

"Yes, thank you. I appreciate it."

I felt uplifted by my appearance. I felt good to be dressed like a young lady of my age for the first time. Since I had been wearing only dark colors all my life, I was not used to the white dress and spun around in front of the mirror.

I could see Emma and Mira smiling behind me in the mirror, making me a little uneasy.

I couldn't help but smile back at them from the mirror.

"Anyway, let's have breakfast for now!"

"Hehe, that's right."

"I've prepared the young lady's favorite breakfast this morning!"

To escape from their gazes, I left the room at a quick pace. As I slowly descended the stairs, trying not to trip in my unfamiliar heels, I felt, for whatever reason, that the first floor was unusually noisy.

(...Is everyone getting ready for breakfast?)

The quality of our family's meals changed dramatically depending on my mother's mood. Since I couldn't believe that my mother was in a good mood this morning, I expected the preparations to be progressing silently.

Peeking into the Great Hall where breakfast was being prepared, with suspicion, I saw someone sitting there who I couldn't believe.

"Ah... long time no see, Amalia. Um, how are you doing?"

The person who weakly spoke while his eyes wandered was my fiance, William Worcester, whom I couldn't forget in this short period of time. He was sitting at our family's dining table for some reason. My fleeting feelings of fluffiness quickly disappeared, replaced by anger.

I mean, I didn't want him to be so apologetic. Of course, it would be awkward since he cheated on me, but if he even felt any sense of guilt, he shouldn't have cheated in the first place.

Since I couldn't possibly just hit the third son of a Marquis, I forced a polite smile while suppressing my disgust.

"Good morning. What business brings you here at this hour today?"

"Well, actually... Olivia came by yesterday."

My fiance stumbled over his words, avoiding my gaze by averting his dark brown eyes. I seriously considered grabbing his collar and slapping him for what he just said. What on earth did he mean by that?

"I see. If you had business with Olivia today, then I have nothing to do with it, so I'll take my leave."

"Oh, wait a minute! What are you wearing?"

Finally looking at me, my fiance forgot what he wanted to say and instead commented on my outfit. He had been weak and hesitant just moments ago, but now he was glaring at me with lifted eyes.

Usually, I would turn pale and hurriedly change my clothes, trying to please him. But now, I realized that I no longer needed to cater to someone like him.

Putting on a smile I thought was the best could offer, I gave him a small smile.
