"No need to argue. You even asked me to join you right away. Aren't I a parvenu too?" "That's... Maël, you're different from that guy. What are you trying to say?" Charles, who had flinched at Maël's outburst, stammered belatedly. "Different, sure. I didn't buy shares in the Riviera Hotel with my own money. It's all thanks to Manon." Charles leaned in, squinting his eyes and raising his eyebrows. Maël could predict the tone and words that would follow. A clumsy attempt at…-

The sound of heels echoed through the corridor. Even without turning my head, I recognized the voice and the rose scent that grew stronger with each step. Until the man stood right in front of me, I said nothing. Yves Valois, in his monochrome attire, didn't match the overly bright family portrait behind him. "You curse well when you're alone." I didn't even want to look up, so I stared at my toes. Only when it felt like it wouldn't be considered ignoring him did I lift my head and offer a formal…-

The day was clear. My younger sister, dressed in the beige tweed skirt suit Philippe had gifted her, looked pale. She didn't look like she'd slept at all. They say even pregnant women can have a cup of coffee, but Manon stubbornly refused even a sip. As I spread butter and strawberry jam on her toast, I said, "Are you nervous? A lot of people feel that way. Don't worry." "I've been throwing up and couldn't sleep a wink. I'm out of it." "Take some morning sickness medicine now. You can sleep in the…-

Manon yawned as she entered the foyer. Maël, who was tapping away on his laptop with a pile of documents on the table, took off his glasses. “Oppa, have this while you work.” Manon, arriving after dinner time, placed a dessert box at the end of the table. As she untied the cross-shaped ribbon, the sky-blue box opened to reveal colorful desserts. She handed Maël a cream puff and yawned again before asking. “How are things with Charles these days?” She tried to ask casually, but Manon…-

Fortunately, there was no need to step in and correct a huge misunderstanding. The waiter, who had to bring the bill, approached and gently asked. “Sir, as per your reservation request, today's meal has already been charged to the card number you provided. Is that okay?” “Oh... I forgot about that.” “Did you enjoy your meal?” “It was really delicious. Thank you.” The conversation ended briefly. However, even though he didn't have to pay over a thousand euros for a meal he…-

A wrinkled hand briefly touched Maël's jacket and then withdrew. “Lawyer Montmatier.” “Oh, hello, Lawyer Bernardi.” “What brings you to invite me for a meal at a place like this? Getting a reservation at Le Louis couldn’t have been easy.” Maël looked at the lawyer, who resembled an old owl. While swallowing his surprise, Thierry Bernardi, the advisor to the Monaco Grand Palace and President of the Monaco Bar Association, confidently entered Le Louis through the white arched…-

Felix was the one having a blast. He blinked slowly, then finally managed to lift his upper body with a clumsy gesture and chuckled. “Did you hear that, Yves?” “I heard.” “What, aren’t you upset?” Yves, who wasn’t into guys, had declared himself gay as a strategic choice. Just like Felix lamented about being a stud, the most important thing for the grand duke’s position was producing heirs. Felix was particularly annoyed with Philippe because he already had a child. Anyone…-

After Philippe, who could barely stand, left with Charles supporting him, the crown prince took a sip of his newly served martini and started complaining without picking up his cards again. “So annoying. Acting all high and mighty when he almost lost his succession rank. Can't we just get rid of him? When I become the grand duke, I should exile him somewhere far away. Got any country recommendations?” “America. They love exiled European nobles.” Yves replied indifferently. His talkative…-

‘Ahahaha.’ Maël’s sudden burst of laughter still echoed in Charles’s ears. Just yesterday, because of that laugh, Charles couldn’t press further about what exactly was going on between Maël and Yves. After laughing long and hard, Maël had simply stared at Charles. Despite everything, Maël, who had been his partner for a year, gave a curt warning. ‘Stop it now. I’m not joking.’ His partner wasn’t particularly amusing. Charles was someone who could easily turn deep…-

Against the backdrop of pouring light, my client and his lover were kissing passionately. Pearl-colored nails clutched his pants, wrinkling them. His lover's hands were busy exploring the client's chest. The heat mixed with their sticky breaths could be felt even ten steps away. When I entered the smoking room of the Monte Carlo Casino, I never expected to see such a scene. Especially not while holding the documents my lover had supposedly forgotten. “Ugh.” The moans flowing between them made…-
