"No, no. There's no need to apologize. Go on."

Edwin grabbed my hand, placing it back on his head, and moved it to stroke his own hair.

He closed his eyes as if he was savoring my touch.

'Why are you doing this?'

It was embarrassing, but Edwin seemed to be in a good mood, so I did what he wanted.

It only became a problem when he didn't tell me to stop after a while.

'My arm hurts. What should I do?'

I was pondering on how I could pull my hand away naturally when a cotton candy seller caught my eye.

"Ed, I want some cotton candy. Can you come with me?"

"Huh? Cotton candy?"

Fortunately, Edwin opened his eyes and looked where I pointed.

"If my bride wants it, I will go."

As he got up from the bench and was about to walk, Beryl came up and whispered something in Edwin's ear.

Then Edwin sat me back on the bench.

"How about you sit here and wait instead? I'll buy some cotton candy for you and bring it back."

"What's wrong?"

Something big must have happened if Edwin, who hates being separated from me, could meekly leave me behind.

Suddenly, my heart sank.

Most importantly, I was terrified of being left alone in an unfamiliar place outside Edwin's estate, especially in such an open space.

Afraid that Edwin would leave me behind, I quickly grabbed his sleeve, and he lowered his gaze.

"I'll be right back. Rest assured that the escorts are guarding you."

Edwin patted my hand to comfort me.

'He's not going far, he's only a few steps away, so why am I so anxious?'

My feelings resembled the times when I was separated from my mother as a child.

'This is because I encountered the Ravens.'

Didn't the Ravens follow us just a few hours ago? Even if he had taken care of everything, they could show up again.

But I couldn't delay him any longer, so I reluctantly let him go.

Edwin smiled and headed to the cotton candy seller with Beryl following closely behind.

Once they were some distance away, Beryl started talking to Edwin.

'What's going on? I hope it's not related to the Imperial family.......'

As I anxiously watched Edwin, something rolled by my feet.

I looked down and saw a gray ball lying there.

"Miss, please roll back the ball."

Perhaps due to the knights surrounding me, the group of boys stood at a distance and shouted.

I considered kicking the ball, but since it might fly in the wrong direction, I picked up the ball and walked over to the children.

I handed it to the boy standing in front, thinking it would be safe as the knights did not restrain him.
