Duke, You're a Bit Stiff (Completed Main Story) - Side Story 1
Ever since Artia returned from the imperial palace to the ducal residence, the atmosphere in the mansion had blossomed wide open.
Before her arrival—or more precisely, until the moment Artia barged into Cassus’s study—the House of Wellington had always been dominated by solemnity.
It wasn’t just that jokes or playful teasing were unheard of; even the slightest mistake would earn icy, wary glances as if one were walking on thin ice.
The staff moved according to strict discipline, and the hierarchy was crystal clear.
Most servants had never once seen Duke Cassus Wellington smile.
But now, things were different.

Cassus always wore a smile whenever he was with Artia.
Her dazzling smile gave the servants a renewed sense of purpose in their daily work at the mansion.
“I’d work here until the day I die.”
“Same here. As long as I don’t get fired, this is my lifelong job.”
The servants rejoiced, claiming that merely seeing Cassus smile washed away their fatigue for the entire day.
“Ducal residence benefits are the best!”
Working at Wellington Mansion had become the dream of many.
Artia got along well with the knights. She never kept her distance and even showed concern for their parents and siblings.
