Roselia, trying to ignore his gaze, retorted sharply, almost annoyed.
“I don’t know such a person, so would you move your arm?”
Her bold words made Klaus give a deflated smile.
“Why can’t you look me in the eyes?”
“…”
“Isn’t it polite to look at someone when talking?”
He moved even closer, his sturdy leg now touching between the folds of her clinging dress. Startled, Roselia inhaled sharply and rolled her eyes in discomfort.
Seemingly intrigued by her reaction, he tilted her chin up to face him.
“Let me ask again. Do you know Antonio?”
Too close. Too close to even respond!
Overwhelmed by the proximity, Roselia impulsively pushed him away.
“I told you, I don’t know him!”
She left the room without looking back, her face burning. Without seeing her reflection, she knew she was flushed. Frustrated by her inexplicable reaction, she stormed out of the building.
Meeting Nadia now seemed impossible.
Damn that Duke Baltazar!
In the original story, Roselia instinctively felt repulsed even by the slightest touch, her body reacting sensitively.
Roselia, observing Closet wearing a black peacock feather-decorated eye mask, shook her head in dissatisfaction.
Closet, not pleased with Roselia’s reaction, frowned and protested, “Is it not good?”
“Yes.”
Accepting Roselia’s direct critique, Closet immediately tried on another mask handed to her by Delma.
This time, it was an eye mask decorated with green feathers and gold trim.
Although it gave off an elegant and sophisticated vibe, it didn’t harmonize well with Closet’s clear sapphire eyes.
Seeing Roselia shake her head again, Closet, slightly stubborn, reached out to Melda for another option.
“Next!”
Melda, casting a displeased glance at Roselia, handed over the last mask.
It was a sky-blue mask adorned with white feathers and inlaid with sapphires.
Roselia, who was sipping her tea, put down her cup and smiled approvingly at the mask, which complemented Closet’s platinum blonde hair and sapphire eyes.
“Is this one okay?”
Encouraged by Roselia’s positive smile, Closet asked, and Roselia nodded, “Yes, it suits you well.”
“Right? I thought so too. Oh, and this mask might actually suit Antonio,” Closet suggested, picking up the green feather and gold-trimmed mask Roselia had previously worn.
It would have been a perfect match for Roselia’s emerald eyes, except for the fact that the mask was designed for women.
Of course, Roselia was a woman, but she was masquerading as a male servant and couldn’t wear a feminine mask.
“You’re joking, right?”
“Too bad. Antonio would have been quite pretty as a girl.”
Despite being a light-hearted comment, Roselia felt a pang of awkwardness and sipped her tea.
“Wearing that mask to Lady Closet’s debutante ball would brand me as a pervert.”
“Well, I can’t wear it to my ball, but trying it on now wouldn’t hurt, right?”
“What?”
Roselia began to sweat as Closet approached with a mischievous smile and the mask in hand.
“Lady Closet, please…”
“Just once, Antonio. It’ll look so good with your green eyes. Aren’t you curious too, Melda?”
Drawing in Melda, who was standing by, Closet sought agreement, and even Melda started chiming in.
“Well, it can’t compare to Lady Closet’s beauty, but I am a bit curious.”
“See, Antonio? Just once, okay?”
Roselia sighed deeply and reluctantly nodded in agreement.
Excited, Closet quickly approached with the mask.
Roselia, sitting quietly on the sofa, allowed Closet to place the mask over her face. After doing so, Closet fell silent for a moment.
Roselia, who had closed her eyes while Closet put on the mask, slowly opened them when she didn’t hear any response.
In front of her was Closet, eyes shining as if she had discovered a masterpiece.
“Lady Closet?”
“My goodness, Antonio… why weren’t you born a girl?”
