The woman looked shabby compared to the other nobles in the room
.
I went up the stairs and greeted the nobles, but no one answered
.
Their reactions to my aunt and I were very different
.
A woman with dark brown hair stood alone while my aunt and I spoke with the nobles
.
My aunt said when I looked at her,
“
It's Mrs.
Partho
“.
My aunt noticed and told me her name
.
“
Mrs.
Bartho?
“
“
Leticia Bartho
.
Eldest daughter of Count Bartho
“.
“
I heard of many nobles from the President,
But I did not know Count Bartho
“
“
This is because he is full of debt, and only has his title
“
“
But how is she doing here?
There are only people here who said the president is important
“.
“
Count Bartho is loyal to Duke Marche and Empress Yvonne
.
He sends her daughter here to do all kinds of bad things, to attract the eyes of the powerful
“.
I blinked
.
Then Leticia Bartho headed to the hall
.
I quickly told my aunt that I wanted to go to the toilet, and she followed her
.
Leticia was washing her hands in the sink
.
My eyes went to her reflection in the mirror
.
“
Hello ma'am
“
"
Welcome
."
You may have heard others calling me Little Miss Doubled,
But she didn't ask who I was
.
I went and sat on the sofa, as she told me
.
“
You'd better stay outside
.
For them, this gym is for losers like me
“.
“
But I'm bored there
.
They're all adults, and they only talk about the hard stuff
“.
Speaking naively, Leticia smiled at me helplessly
.
“
Let's play together
!
Leticia replied with a smile on her face,
“
Okay
.
What should we do?
“
“
Please tell me an interesting story
“
“
Can I?
“
Sitting next to me, Letizia told me some tales of the Empire
.
I responded enthusiastically to her stories
.
“
Tell me about the whale story too
!
“
Whale?
“
“
It's about a father whale looking for a mother and baby whale
“.
Leticia's hands trembled as she told her a recently popular fairy tale
.
“
This
…
Sorry, I don't know much about whales
.
Ah, it's been a long time already
.
I'll go out first
“.
It seemed like she was deliberately avoiding this topic, but I didn't care
.
Because I knew why I was avoiding her
.
This is the story of the Whale family
.
The father whale and the mother whale, who lived in different places, accidentally met and fell in love, and the baby whale was also born
.
The story revolves around the disappearance of a mother whale and a baby whale in an unfortunate accident, and the father whale was desperately searching for them
.
The reason Letizia doesn't want to tell me this story is because this is her story
.
To be precise, the Emperor's brother, Duke Locard, deliberately spread this story to the Empire to find his beloved woman who suddenly disappeared one day along with their child.
.
Letizia once worked as a maid, and hid her identity to pay off her father's debts
.
She was Duke Lockard's maid,
Who was recovering in secret to hide the fact that he had lost his sight due to illness
.
At that time, the two fell in love and had a child,
Letizia somehow escaped as his sight gradually recovered
.
'
But in the end,
It's a happy ending like the Whale family story
.’
Leticia will be his wife later, and I want her to be my godmother
.
**
Sharon called my aunt and me to show us the drawing she had completed
.
It was a great design and surprisingly cute
.
I wonder if I would look good wearing this
.
Auntie nodded
.
“
This would look good on Lepline
“
“
I agree
!
I completed the drawing and got goosebumps seeing this
.
This dress is perfect for her
!
“
“
Can you give me the accessories too?
“
“
Well, I can't say no to my inspiration
.
Okay, that's okay
.
Because I love the little lady too
“.
The aunt stamped Areej's stamp on the dress receipt
.
I almost fainted when I looked at her out of curiosity
.
'
Is this expensive?
!’
It doesn't even compare to Melvin's dress
.
It's the price that makes me feel motivated to become richer
.
“
Thank you as always, customer
“
Sharon smiled and lowered her head
.
Then we went home
.
My father and our brothers were already waiting for us
.
“
What kind of dress is this?
“
Henry asked me
.
“
Really beautiful dress
“
“
I know what Sharon is capable of, but I'm even more excited to see you wearing it
“
I told them how beautiful the dress was and how expensive it was
.
Even though I said the price,
My brothers didn't react much and I felt embarrassed
.
'
This is the example of children being born rich
.’
She also spoke of Miss Leticia Bartho
.
I knew the big story ahead,
But I needed detailed information
.
My father and brothers knew about Count Bartho, I thought
.
“
Count Bartho
…
I heard that his daughter cleans and washes the clothes herself because the servants left due to the late salary
“
“
Didn't they borrow a lot of money?
Where does this money go?
“
“
The borrowed money was used for the education of the eldest son and the younger son
.
Even after borrowing the money, the younger Mrs.
Partho still suffers
“.
The lady cleans and washes the clothes herself
…
'
She won't have much time to go out because she needs to manage this big mansion
.’
In addition,
She had little time to go out because she had to take care of her baby
.
Isaac asked,
“
Why didn't she just run away and be treated like a maid?
“
Henry replied, putting sugar cubes into my teacup
.
“
When they were young, people said that the relationship between them was cute
.
The count lived with the lady, and the lady also said that she would marry his father
.
Maybe you can't forget the memories of that time
“.
“
What an idiot
“
While they were talking, she wondered how to approach Lady Letizia
.
'
Well, I have to get closer to Leticia
…’
Suddenly the surroundings became quiet
.
I raised my head, my father and brothers were staring at me
.
My father asked me,
“
Belén, who do you want to marry?
“
“
Why do you ask the obvious?
She loves me more than anyone else
“.
“
You are completely wrong
“
Isaac and Henry replied to each other
.
“
Belen
“.
“
Baby girl
“
“
LeBlin
“.
“
Speak easy, LeBlin
“
“
Yes, you can be honest with me, baby girl
“
“
Who is he, Belin?
“
If you said one of the three, I would have a hard time
.
I rolled my eyes and said,
“
I
,
So
…
Um
…
Johan
!
The faces of three people, except for Johan, became pitiful
.
Their eyes were fixed on me like arrowheads
.
“
Why?
“
My father's voice was low enough to shake the ground
.
Isik stared at Johan with fierce eyes
.
'
This is because he is the most normal member of the family
.’
Johan closed the book he was reading and got up
.
'
Look, Johan doesn't react to these words like them
.’
I was thinking about it, but my father said with a dark look
.
“
Where are you going?
“
Then Johan answered in a strange way
.
“
I'll look for a tuxedo
“*
*
A formal suit for weddings
Henry and Isaac stared at Johann as if they were going to tear him to death
.
Dad called the butler
.
“
Take him back to the academy
“
***
I stuck my head out the door
.
“
Well, no one
“
After making sure that there are no people,
I put the doll on the bed and took the device out of my pocket
.
After contemplating the location, I opened my eyes after being enveloped in the light
.
There was Ceria in front of me
.
“
Little miss
!
“
Hello
…”
When I greeted her with a tired face,
Ceria quickly got up and left me sitting on the sofa
.
“
I received a message that you came to town,
But what brings you here without calling me?
“
“
I want to confirm the progress of the work
“
Progress indicates tracking
“
Client
“
Who kidnapped me and bought Seria's younger brother
.
“
Yes, I heard that there was someone working at the House of Hope with a connection to the slave trade, and I checked with him
.
But because they were so cautious, I tried to spy on them carefully
“.
“
Well done
“
"
Yes
.
But what's the matter?
“
