ATPE Chapter 28
Chapter 28. After the Auction Ended At his words, Serenia gave a faint, bitter smile. The turn of events had gone exactly as she expected, which left a sour taste in her mouth. “So even that cantankerous Duke cares about my mother, it seems.” “Which means…” William nodded, picking up where she left off. “To keep the incident under wraps, the Duke applied pressure from every angle. Thanks to that, your poisoning case was quietly resolved behind the scenes.” “I…-

ATPE Chapter 27
Chapter 27. After the Recovery Was Complete Serenia slowly opened her eyes as she awoke from her dream. A white ceiling and a hanging IV bag came into view through her still-blurry vision. Realizing she was in a hospital, she felt a small sense of relief and closed her eyes again. Still caught in the lingering emotions of the dream, her hand unconsciously reached for her neck. Then she remembered. ‘Right. It’s gone now.’ She let her hand fall with a bitter smile. The absence of the…-

ATPE Chapter 26
Chapter 26. After the Performance Ended At that moment, Serenia realized that Angela’s words hadn’t been an exaggeration. “The experience Ain delivers is truly extraordinary. That sense of immersion, as if he’s pulling me into a dream!” “Unlike those stiff, stick-like people, the dynamic flow of his movements comes through perfectly—it’s just exquisite…” And indeed, it was so. The tip of his sword, dancing alone in the air, fluttered like a butterfly, only to shoot forward…-

ATPE Chapter 25
Chapter 25. After the transaction "Really? But they just said it was sold out…" Her bewildered tone sounded slightly hesitant, making the young scalper pause and give her a curious look. ‘Is she… a little slow?’ With that thought, the boy glanced her over. Her face was as haggard as if she hadn’t slept in days, and her shabby clothes perfectly matched her exhausted expression. Her hair, disheveled from the harsh winter wind, completed the picture. The boy, named Finn, thought to…-

ATPE Chapter 24
Chapter 24. After the reservation Her already pale face grew increasingly ashen, eventually turning a sickly shade of blue. Only then did she realize—she had forgotten to account for the photographer when she fled the riverside that day. She had no idea how things had spiraled since then, but to think that the photos had ended up in the Admancanon household, and worse, in the hands of the former duchess herself! The thought that this might interfere with fulfilling the contract sent a sharp…-

ATPE Chapter 23
Chapter 23. After the invitation "Pseudo-slave?" Hearing such an insult for the first time in her life, Serenia couldn’t even muster anger. She simply froze in place. Raskal looked down at her with shadowed eyes before turning with a slight smile. He took a few steps toward the hospital room door but then paused. "Come to think of it, there are nine days left before the bank seizes the estate, aren’t there?" "…" "I’ll generously give you that time to sort things out with your lover.…-

ATPE Chapter 22
Chapter 22. After the Rant However, it lasted only a moment before Raskal returned to his indifferent expression and spoke. "And? What about it?" "What… what do you mean, ‘what about it?’" Dalia nearly clung to his arm, her eyes wide with disbelief. "Are you seriously saying this after seeing these disgraceful photos? Are you truly planning to take such a vulgar and wanton girl as your wife?" "And why not?" "Raskal!" Unable to control her temper, Dalia shouted. Yet, Raskal showed…-

ATPE Chapter 21
Chapter 21. After the raid Upon seeing the photo taken head-on, Bianca clenched her fists tightly. 'Finally! It's over!' Completely unaware that an official marriage proposal had been delivered by a royal messenger while she was sulking in the darkroom, Bianca laughed gleefully and sought out Dalia. Dalia Admancanon’s face brightened upon seeing Bianca so early in the morning. Bianca dismissed everyone from the room, then slowly laid out the photographs in front of Dalia and said, “We…-

ATPE Chapter 20
Chapter 20. After the Delivery Only then did Serenia realize that the current situation was causing a huge misunderstanding, and she quickly scrambled to explain herself. "It’s not what you think..." "How can it not be? The royal seal is right there." "That’s not what I meant...! No, more importantly, why are you even up? I told you to lie down!" "Does that really matter?" "Of course it does! And what’s with your clothes? If you're going to wear them, why not put them on properly…-

ATPE Chapter 2
Chapter 2. After the Proposal As Serenia stood frozen, unable to respond, the men surrounding her eagerly chimed in one after another. “A title earned by sheer luck from a common knight's merit? Who would ever covet such a thing?” “No history, no honor, and no wealth either. Didn’t she blow what little money she had on hospital bills? All that’s left is debt.” Serenia clenched her fists tightly, her teeth grinding in silent frustration. “Well, I suppose there’s one…-
