Cassis kept on thinking about Evelyn, who headed to Barnettsa Castle alone.

I didn't have to be angry with the child, but I lost my temper without realizing it.

I kept avoiding her because I was embarrassed by my anger.

Normally, Evelyn would have tried to reconcile with her hard work. Somehow she hesitated to notice me.

You can't reconcile anymore because you keep looking at me without doing anything.

Cassis was already displeased and spent time without doing this or that.

It was already the day of the party after such a dawdle.

Paul, who was next to him at the time, asked Cassis insinuatingly as he kept looking at the clock restlessly like a puppy.

"Have you made up with Miss Evelyn yet?"

"How did you know we had a fight?"

"You make it so obvious that we can't not know. Everyone already knows."

"Ah..."

Cassis must have been embarrassed, as he smoothed his back hair.

Then he looked at the clock habitually. Now was the time to arrive at Barnettsa Castle.

Parties are fun.

Parties are not fun.

Cassis's face hardened, recalling what Evelyn had said.

For Cassis, a party was a kind of business.

From an early age, he had to follow his parents advice and become close aquaintances.

A family-to-family friendship.

Those coming were mostly people who followed certain standards, just like themselves.

So Cassis had never enjoyed the party. He felt like he was acting on a pre-arranged stage.

But for him, always boring and tedious parties didn't seem to be for Evelyn.

Evelyn Monstera was really weird.

Living in the countryside, unlike other aristocratics, there was so little luxury or vanity.

She is kind to all who are coming, because there is no one to take over.

He saw everything when he saw Elisha Forem, the daughter of a Baron family, who's not much to look at.

Yes, Elisha Forem.

The child always clung to Evelyn's side and was wary of him.

As if to declare war, 'If you touch my friend, you're dead!'

To Cassis, Elisha was no more, or less, than a follower of Evelyn.

He was more worried about Evelyn's future with that.

What is she going to do when she makes her debut?

Most of the nobility made friends who matched their status for their debut in adulthood.

It was natural that social circle networking soon became power.

But there seemed to be no plausible family friend around Evelyn.

She seemed too young to think in that way at all.

At that moment, Cassis frowned at why he was worried about Evelyn's debut.
