“Eve, what’s going on here!”
The door opened and my father and mother came in. I had no choice but to laugh inwardly at his distorted face in the high fever.
I will make you do business with your daughter.
“Ah, Father.”
But no matter what my innermost thoughts were, I was a poor daughter. The pretty Evangeline’s health has been weak since she was a child.
“Are you okay, Eve?”
“Sob, Father. I’m sorry.”
I lamented to my father with tears in my eyes. I could see my mother standing next to him sighing deeply.
But what can I do? It wasn’t just a cold, it was the flu. Although I wanted to see my father’s distorted face, the world seems to be spinning now.
My father stared at me and opened his mouth with his face hardened.
“Next week’s appointment with the Duke…”
“Oh, Father. Don’t worry. Even if I crawl … Cough!”
I coughed with an expression that seemed like I was going to vomit blood. Oh, it does smell fishy. Oh, yes. Evangeline’s weak body is really good at this moment.
My father, who was staring at me, sighed for a long time.
I closed my eyes tightly and let a teardrop from my eyes.
“I’m sorry, Father. Because I’m such a useless daughter…”
It’s useless. Where is the law that requires a daughter to be useful, and not a thing?
My mother shed tears as she looked at me like that. Although I couldn’t say anything to my father, I felt sorry for him because he loved his daughter in his own way.
In the end, my father said with a slightly disappointed voice.
“I’ll cancel this appointment.”
-What. I hugged my throbbing body and sighed. Fortunately, the number of floors is not high though. It might hurt a little, but it didn’t seem like it was broken anywhere.
I moved my body. The dog hole I used to run away from home was blocked, but I knew it and I saw three more.
Immediately, I ran to the grassy place and rubbed my body without worrying about getting stuck in the grass.
But the dog hole was too small. Oh, the novel deceived me. What did the kids who ran away through the dog’s hole do? But last time it was a little big…
“Ah, I came out!”
With a lot of dirt, I straightened my bangs with a puff of my nose. If you have lived on Earth at the age of 21, shouldn’t you clean up your bangs even at any critical moment?
It was a moment when I was about to take a step forward-thinking so. Suddenly a carriage shot past me with a few horses.
“Ahhhhhhhh!”
Thanks to this person, I fell down with a sound that wasn’t very elegant.
I blamed my bad luck by touching my ass, but the carriage that passed me gradually stopped and the door opened.
“What is it?”
I turned my head. And when I saw the person who came out of the carriage, I had no choice but to shout inside.
‘Wow, look at the dignity of the original work.’
There, a man with black hair and red eyes neatly turned back, stood like a statue with a cool face.
It was the Duke of Florence.
I realized. That this novel is going to make me meet the Duke. 1
