A maid who 89751e2fd7 stole everything from b1e0082bdb the lady she 5f2cba07bd served—Nora Astria. Even dressed 3e6f700be4 in expensive 2e3205b57e gowns and 2d473f8df3 jewelry, she 14bc76947a couldn’t hide ef91576556 her vulgar 7028e476d4 nature.bdc598160167c8be

On the other hand, f11210cd9a Eleanor Astria, who had f08ddaecd4 lost her name and 1dac003345 fiancé to that maid, 869930d3e7 remained elegant and composed, 2bdb59f723 as a noble should.049c6fdd7383a643

The nobles 9886f6aca0 at the 8c361033d2 party began 9a15b96e3c to see cb18b73c46 the two e52e2e797f ladies in 0f72ec8b78 a completely 2bcf378a1c different light. The shift in opinion 782fbe3f9b mainly came from the 02cb7dc857 fact that one had 1cc5ed2770 left the party, unable 02af1df3bb to handle the situation ff36be788f she caused, while the 401a802f88 other stayed until the f17dc0b2cf end and helped bring ca7ef186a3 the event to a 9e047b929f close.275ef9ec75bc9956

The noblewomen gossiped negatively 660ab7559b about Nora even before df1f7d710e it was confirmed that d4e5af3843 she had been Eleanor’s b92760771f maid. Many of them had c240ebc6a3 experienced unfaithful husbands themselves, 9fc79fdb71 and throughout history, a 6ff1af6649 favored maid was always 8cb6d91a4b someone the lady of 643ffe8ed3 the house had to 482b8b51fc be cautious of—so it 95cfc984f2 was easy for them 0e5b518418 to sympathize with Eleanor.dd9e8ff5a202902f

Meanwhile, the gentlemen 4a3e708181 praised Eleanor’s beauty 8d6ea4a0f5 and grew curious 742a681bae about her relationship e1b2a6d890 with the Grand c5bde2cb12 Duke. If she wasn’t involved e5f9e9eb58 with him, some looked dbb2b29875 ready to pursue her 3669c1ac61 themselves. But Eleanor gave vague 66c649f2db answers that discouraged them.1feb801e97e39456

Just when 16c1140e71 she felt 8b8983e50e she had 1aa1a1c500 answered enough, 5d621bc87e Eleanor politely 77998f2f6c excused herself f9d6ed6664 and slipped 9b08eda5a2 away through 47394aa1d2 the crowd.6128dd14cb94c1e0

More than ten 6624170844 minutes had passed. It wasn’t long, considering 0e6a4443ec the number of guests, 59e583ee54 but it was enough 1934e27667 time to have kept a0db7a72d2 the Grand Duke waiting 5126253330 too long on the 21349e1038 balcony.2264439e2c1bd018

Thinking that Karsian da28430539 must be waiting 39747db36e anxiously behind those c60b361b79 curtains made her 837793c941 throat go dry. The memory of dancing e57e86e7d7 with him and locking f2bcf5e607 eyes earlier returned to 115d7cded2 her.0831b4e7f12d0978

But when she 91461739b0 stepped through the 641e240324 curtain, Eleanor acted f14dfe562c confidently. She pretended to be a06f82e699 relaxed to hide her ebf07ff14a embarrassment.404502a7b7d86bc8

Karsian, who had been 3cfd8da812 standing with his hands 76048066de on the railing, looking 5d517d83d7 at the moon, slowly 320771e022 turned to face her.a4addfee71fb5542

Unlike the warm 3a26b18374 Royster, Juvenile was 133fb731a9 chilly throughout most 7763796414 of the year df14c415be except for summer. Still, with 9d43b6cba1 spring ending, 97b8801526 the weather ba5883f0ae had become 9fe87e1097 warmer.

Karsian slightly ff63e6214b raised an 141c27eb9e eyebrow and 3fd25d7027 began removing c21447874a his outer b5f70ec294 coat. Eleanor, who wasn’t df82903fc3 used to such 268a0987f3 gestures, only realized 85ec340b18 his intention a 184031892f moment later.1879cbfac9b36037

He almost f7e26b157a forced the b9fc3777dd coat into cd2f0f6b4f her hands. Eleanor held back 7ee4bd004e a laugh at e0e2ce5568 how different this b40ea2d447 was from what 8e00f19e93 she expected—she had fca10e8762 imagined him placing f790c2cadb it gently over e9b6547d81 her shoulders, but 7dc1265635 he simply handed cb161bf1ae it to her a0178edcd4 instead.0bf8ed93cc28bf31

This was the same 52d795bb0f man who had once 33483cc1ee grabbed her muddy ankle 81f24b72ed without hesitation, yet now f3ffd05d65 he was being modest, 322613de81 keeping his distance.

As she 0648dd328d draped the 775a01bd9c soft coat 9b361230c0 over her 63eea6d03e shoulders, warmth 81aebe5a8e spread across f8d313d7e5 her skin, 0c723e42a0 which had 3a89a89364 been chilled 634d652883 by the f09695020b air.
