Richard would crush the precious potatoes, but I decided not to say anything.

When Argen was mentioned, anger would have soared.

It must have upset him that Richard was imprisoned here, but Argen had his heart twisted in the idea of taking care of the bedroom leisurely.

But why did Argen call me?

A lot of things happened during my Richard's meal duty, but I managed to get through it and clear the dead flag-.

"I'll bring dinner later, so peel all the potatoes."

"...."

"Understand?"

"Will you give me a reward if I cut them all?"

"I'll think about it."

"...Okay."

He smiled as usual.

Emily looked at us with strange eyes. Soon the door closed and Emily grabbed my shoulder and interrogated me.

"You, what's your relationship with the monster?"

"Don't you see it? It's a relationship between someone who fed him."

"-I know that. That's not what I'm saying. Why are you two so close?"

Close?

In fact, it seemed that Richard was pretending to be kind and pushing his opponent.

"It was originally like that."

I simply defined Richard's behavior. But Emily was not convinced.

"I've never seen any of the servant to be so close-"

"...."


"It felt like he was drawing a line, but for you-"

Emily frowned as if it were complicated and pushed me to the front of Argen's room, as if she had given up thinking.

"Cheer up, Rosie!"

She cheered for me as she did when I first went to Richard's room for meal duty.

I nodded my head tremblingly. Argen is calling me.

I took a deep breath and knocked on the door. I was so nervous that I was going to die.

"Who is it?"

As soon as I knocked, I heard a sound inside. It's Argen.

"My name is Rosie. I heard you called me."

"Ah. Come in."

I pulled the doorknob and entered the room.


The moment I saw Argen's long-awaited face-I froze as it was.

"Hello, Rosie?"

You said you weren't a Marquis! You said it wasn't Argen!

But it's right!

I was so upset that I went crazy, but unfortunately, I couldn't express my feelings.

"I see you again."

Should I laugh or cry in this situation?

"Last time, I made a mistake because I couldn't recognize the Marquis-"

"Ah. That's fine."

Argen was pretty cool. I was relieved by the attitude that he would just let it go.
