TNBTW | Episode 25
Chapter 4. The Chick’s Fluttering Wings Edith received word from Bill one quiet afternoon that all the gifts had finally been sorted. Some of the presents, sent as apologies from noble houses unable to attend the tea party, had already been donated to the orphanage. However, even after that, there remained a substantial amount, and it had taken considerable time to organize. “Are you certain it’s all right for me to check the storeroom myself?” Edith asked cautiously, responding…-

TNBTW | Episode 24
If there’s a hill nearby, it is undoubtedly the haven for a lonely child. Edith clearly remembered a passage she’d read long ago as a child, tucked away in the corner of a library—a memory that had outlasted even the book’s title. ‘Hmm, it should be around here…’ Ascending a hill overlooking the orphanage, Edith soon spotted a towering oak tree. The enormous tree, with its elongated leaves and clusters of tiny acorns, stretched out its thick and low-hanging branches—perfect for…-

TNBTW | Episode 23
‘I know that feeling all too well.’ The familiar scene pulled Edith into the tides of her own memories, and for a moment, she let herself drift in the current of nostalgia. ‘Sister, is it Christmas today?’ ‘Christmas is in December, silly. It’s June now.’ ‘But there are so many presents piled up in the director’s office! Come on, I’ll show you!’ Her little sister, chattering like a sparrow, had eagerly tugged her into the hallway. The sight of her was still…-

TNBTW | Episode 22
From their previous encounter, Edith had expected the young lady’s favorability toward her to have plummeted to the negatives, so she wouldn’t have been surprised if her invitation was outright rejected. Yet, contrary to expectations, the young lady responded positively. With this, all invitees had sent their confirmations of attendance. Recalling when Bill first taught her about invitations and mentioned how replies often went unanswered unless it was to decline, Edith felt this was an…-

TNBTW | Episode 21
Hosting a tea party was a duty that every noblewoman had to fulfill, and Edith was no exception. It was this very tradition that had motivated her to memorize the social registry long before her marriage. “I was planning to discuss the guest list with you anyway. I've already organized it, so let me bring it to you now!” “There’s no need to exert unnecessary effort for that either.” Just as Edith turned, thinking it was a timely opportunity to finalize her task, Skyle firmly stopped her.…-

TNBTW | Episode 20
*** As the guests departed after the wedding banquet, the warm glow of dusk began to settle over the manor. ‘I can’t imagine going through this twice.’ Edith sighed as she soaked in the hot bath, letting its heat ease her fatigue. A sham marriage was exhausting enough—how taxing would a real one be? No matter how much she thought about it, the idea of doing this again seemed impossible. ‘And yet, we didn’t even do much for the banquet… and I’m this worn out.’ She had been…-

TNBTW | Chapter 19
The ever-dutiful steward Bill had once retrieved a Social Registry for the fledgling duchess, who was about to encounter high society for the first time. The registry was a compendium of the key figures of the social elite, complete with portraits and succinct summaries of their backgrounds. For nobles who had been part of this world since childhood, it was a trivial document. But for Edith, who had been a noble in title only, it was immensely useful. ‘That gentleman is the second son of the…-

Prologue --- Chapter 0: That Young Lady is a Governess Ding, ding. Edith slowly straightened her back as the bell chimed from outside the window, signaling the end of the lesson. However, the young girl in front of her was so focused that she seemed entirely oblivious to the sound. "All right, Luna. It’s time to wrap up now." Clap, clap. Edith clapped her hands twice with a cheerful tone, finally drawing Luna’s gaze away from the chessboard. Waiting for the…-

TNBTW | Episode 12
“All of a sudden? What’s going on! You said not long ago that you weren’t seeing anyone! Edith, you!” Feigning disappointment, Daisy pouted dramatically, only to narrow her eyes shortly after. “So, who is it? Who’s the lucky man that managed to capture the heart of the great Edith Irene Brussels?” She stabbed a slice of apple, her dessert, with her fork as she spoke. The juicy apple, evidently sweet, gleamed in the light. Just as Daisy brought the piece to her mouth, Edith…-

TNBTW | Episode 18
Edith stepped onto the pure white carpet and momentarily regretted how carelessly she had taken things in the past. The man walking toward her from the far end of the aisle, Skyle, shimmered so brilliantly that he seemed as though he might merge with the light and vanish at any moment. ‘Should I have done something—taken some kind of measure?’ In truth, Edith had no particular dream or romantic ideal about weddings. It wasn’t just that she had never planned for marriage before—it was…-
