A few months later.
“My lady, are you sure you’ll be alright?”
Cindy looked at Belladonna, who was preparing to go out, with worried eyes.
She alternately glanced at the scenery outside the window still holding a cold chill and Belladonna wearing thick clothes.
Belladonna nodded as she struggled to button her coat over her now round, protruding belly.
“Yes! I must go out today.”
“But……”
“I haven’t properly stepped on snow all winter because of Escalion’s overprotection. Do you know how stifling that is?”
“That’s because your body is so weak, my lady. The weather is getting colder, and you’re being stubborn by not going to the townhouse in the south.”
“How can a lord’s wife leave her territory and go somewhere?”
Belladonna glared at Cindy, who kept trying to stop her, not unkindly, as she fully buttoned her coat.
Cindy reluctantly approached her and tidied up her coat while speaking.
“Still, the lord often wrapped you in thick blankets and carried you out for walks around the area, didn’t he?”
That’s true, but……
Belladonna recalled how he would wrap her warmly and lift her up for walks whenever she said she felt stifled.
But sometimes I want to go out without Escalion!
“Wolf said there’s a market open in Gribblata town after a long time.”
“I heard that too. Why don’t you go together when the lord returns later?”
“Escalion is busy, you know. He said there are many public facilities that need repair work as the ice melts after winter.”
Belladonna muttered as if protesting in a small voice.
In fact, now that he was so busy was the perfect opportunity.
She exhaled resolutely and looked out the window at the scenery where melted ice dripped from the tips of tree branches.
Actually, there was another reason why she wanted to go out in search of freedom.
The reason she wanted to go to the market, breaking through Cindy’s concerns and keeping it a secret from Escalion, was…….
‘……because tomorrow is Escalion’s birthday!’
Belladonna clenched her fist again, strengthening her firm resolve.
“Cindy, you don’t need to come with me today. Scarlet said she’d go with me.”
“Yes, yes, I understand. You want me to make you look like a commoner so you can move around comfortably today, right?”
“Yes!”
Cindy nodded as she wrapped a thick, soft scarf tightly around Belladonna.
[This is the timeline separator]“My lady!”
Turning her head towards the voice, she saw Scarlet waving her arms high.
Seeing her energetic figure, Belladonna smiled and approached.
“Scarlet!”
“Wow! Your belly has…… grown a lot since last time?”
Scarlet widened her eyes as she looked at Belladonna’s figure, which had changed so much in just a few months. Belladonna replied, placing her hand on her belly shyly.
“It changes day by day, even I’m surprised.”
“Then let’s not overdo it today and move slowly, okay?”
Scarlet took her hand and led her to where the market was in full swing.
The square, which had regained its vitality as the long winter ended and spring came, was full of happily smiling people.
Those who had been sheltering from the cold indoors all winter seemed very excited to breathe the outside air after so long.
Caught up in the mood, Belladonna swung her arms back and forth excitedly as she walked.
The air, still holding a slight chill, refreshingly circled the tip of her nose.
“What would Escalion like?”
Belladonna muttered as she walked alongside Scarlet, looking at the stalls.
A birthday.
Finding out about his birthday was purely by chance. She recalled her conversation with Scarlet a few weeks ago.
[This is the timeline separator]One evening in the drawing room, Belladonna smiled faintly as she looked at the soft velvet dress Scarlet was wearing.
Although she had chosen it herself, she thought anew that she had chosen well. Seeing the purple dress that matched Scarlet’s image so perfectly, she felt a sense of pride welling up.
At Scarlet’s words, Belladonna burst into laughter as she picked up her teacup.
Birthday?
At those unexpected words, Belladonna stopped with her hand holding the teacup raised.
Seeing her suddenly blank face, Scarlet tilted her head and asked.
Uh….. A birthday gift?
Belladonna blinked her eyes and slowly raised the corners of her mouth with an awkward expression. She couldn’t manage her expression at all.
[This is the timeline separator]“Kyaaa! My lady! Look at this! It’s so cute!”
Startled by Scarlet’s sudden scream, Belladonna snapped out of her reverie.
Scarlet, who had gone ahead without her noticing, was jumping up and down in place holding a small baby shoe she had found at a stall.
The stall owner smiled proudly with her hands on her hips.
“I designed and sewed it myself! You can’t buy something like this anywhere else!”
“My lady! May I buy this for you? I want to buy my niece’s first shoes. Please, please!”
Belladonna approached them with a small smile.
“It’s really cute……”
She murmured, placing the baby shoe Scarlet had handed her on her palm.
It’s so small….. Can they really walk with such tiny feet?
“Oh ho, looks like it won’t be long before you meet a cute angel?”
The stall owner said, looking Belladonna up and down. She nodded as if being generous and spread her fingers.
“If you buy two now, I’ll give you one more! It’s a special service.”
“We’ll take them! Right now!”
Scarlet’s eyes sparkled as she scanned the stall.
She kept making strange exclamations as she fingered the baby shoes lined up neatly.
“This one’s cute too….. Ugh! This one’s so cute too! What do you think, my lady? Aww, how about this one?”
“They’re all cute! You choose, Scarlet.”
“Uhuhu, how about this? Ah! There’s this one too! This one has so much lace……”
Leaving Scarlet behind with an expression that was hard to tell if it was tearful or joyful, Belladonna slightly turned her body to look at other stalls.
Baby shoes were fine, but finding Escalion’s birthday gift was more urgent.
‘Last year I didn’t know, so I just let it pass…..’
If it was around this time last year, it would have been right after returning from Astanya, and she felt constantly guilty and sorry for not being able to properly celebrate it.
He probably would have said what’s important about something like a birthday and not cared at all, but…….
“Hmm.”
Belladonna furrowed her brow in thought.
Something Escalion needs! What could that possibly be?
Clothes or shoes? Those were already taken care of by the merchants who regularly visited Gribblata Castle.
Weapons like swords? She knew nothing about those.
It was clear that if she bought something amateurish, it would be of no use to him.
Delicious food? The chef at Gribblata was too excellent to even consider that.
‘What on earth do I give to someone who lacks nothing!’
“My lady, I don’t think you need to give elder brother a birthday gift.”
Scarlet, who had approached with three cute baby shoes in a bag, said. Belladonna turned to her.
“Why?”
“You’re already giving him the most precious gift this time.”
Scarlet said, pointing at her belly.
“But last year too……”
“Last year, you returned to Gribblata, which must have been the greatest gift for elder brother.”
But I can’t accept that!
Belladonna shook her head.
“I need something special. Something that can be a big, unforgettable memory for his only birthday of the year.”
“You’ve chosen the most difficult item of all.”
“I can find it!”
Belladonna turned her body again to look at the stalls lined up densely to the end of the square.
With so many items, surely I can find one that I like? She had to buy his gift here today, no matter what.
“Scarlet, how about that sword sheath decoration over there?”
“Not bad.”
“What about a fountain pen? He has a lot of work, so couldn’t he use it in his office?”
“That’s good too.”
Somehow feeling the answers were insincere, Belladonna turned her head to look at Scarlet.
She was absorbed in the baby shoes she had bought, grinning as she stared into the bag.
What’s this, you’re not focusing on me at all?
“Scarlet! Please answer properly!”
“Ah, really….. How can it be so cute? My lady, shall we go look at baby clothes?”
“Baby clothes aren’t the important thing……”
“Here! Come take a look at this!”
Just then, a thin voice caught her attention.
Belladonna, who was trying to stop Scarlet from rushing to the baby clothes stall, unconsciously turned her head to look where the voice came from.
“Oh, is that……?”

When Yu Shu was diagnosed with pregnancy, Yan Jin stared at his belly for a long time.
Covering his stomach, he muttered gloomily, “If you don’t like it, I’ll go get an abortion.”
“It’s not that I don’t like it.” Yan Jin hugged Yu Shu and said softly, “I just feel like I’m not human.”
Yu Shu comforted Yan Jin, “I was already an adult when we got together.”
Yan Jin hesitated, “But you won’t be of legal marriageable age even after giving birth to the child.”
At the same time, a flood of bullet comments appeared in the live streaming room that the two couldn’t see.
