I might have pitied him in the past, but not now.
And one week before the wedding.
A letter arrived for Teresa.
I happily replied to her letter, asking to meet quietly.
Fortunately, there was no mention of Maximilian in the letter.
When I arrived at the tea room, the designated meeting place, I was led to a private room.
It was a place that guaranteed complete anonymity, so I felt a bit weird.
It was just a meeting with Teresa, but it felt like committing a crime.
‘Well, there’s no need to become gossip fodder unnecessarily.’
As I sat down, my favorite tea was brought to the table.

Quietly sipping my tea, I looked up at the sound of the door opening.
Teresa looked a little pale but still better than when we met at the wedding.
“Teresa, sister!”
“It’s been a long time, Jaina.”
We lightly embraced and sat down. The atmosphere softened further as tea was placed in front of her as well.
“Have you been well all this time?”
“I’ve been fine. What about you, Jaina? You must have been busy with wedding preparations?”
“Ha, haha. What is there to prepare?”
I said awkwardly, laughing.
Teresa looked at me quietly and opened her mouth.

“The crown prince is a good person, so he will surely treat Jaina well.”
He only treats the heroine Teresa well.
I smiled, holding back tears.
“We’ll have to trust him, right?”
“I knew it from the beginning. That the two of you were wellmatched. I was sure it would turn out this way.”
“No. It was just, well, inevitable. You know it too, sister.”
My words darkened Teresa’s face.
I regretted it immediately.
That day, Maximilian had run out of the wedding hall and ran to Teresa, so she must have been very surprised.
“Are you alright, sister?”

“Soso. The gazes around me are a bit uncomfortable, but it was the same when I was engaged to Max.”
A bitter smile reminded me once again of how much of a trash Maximilian was.
A trash only he knew about.
“The reason I wanted to meet today is because of this.”
Teresa took out a small box and handed it to me.
When I opened the box at her urging, a blue diamond necklace was inside.
“What’s this?”
“This is something I prepared to give to Jaina when she got married.”
“Why did you prepare something like this so early!”
Until recently, I didn’t even have a fiancé, so when on earth had she prepared such a thing?

I cried out in embarrassment without realizing it.
Teresa smiled at me as if she understood, and said,
“Jaina was good to me, wasn’t she? If it weren’t for Jaina, I’d still be leashed to Max. And Max would have gotten sick of me.”
“No, sister Teresa.”
He regretted it later, rolling around like a worm.
I held back the words I couldn’t say.
Maximilian’s real love was Teresa, no matter what anyone said.
But Teresa knew nothing of it. Considering Maximilian’s attitude, it was no wonder.
“But still, I’m grateful to Jaina, independent of breaking off the engagement with Max. For ending this flimsy engagement.”
“Sister, are you really okay?”

Her faint smile that seemed to collapse at any moment made me feel uneasy.
To me like that, she smiled brightly and said it was okay.
She then stood up and put the necklace around my neck.
“There’s a superstition that if you inherit something when you get married, you become happy. Since Jaina doesn’t have a mother, I wanted to do it for you.”
“Sister……”
It was a necklace as pretty and lovely as Teresa’s heart.
Certainly, here’s the translated passage:
“Now, we may not become family, but as friends, this much is acceptable, right?”
For some reason, tears welled up in my eyes.
What if Maximilian had regretted just a bit sooner?

Then the two could have reconciled and happily married.
If this kind and lovely Teresa could have become my family.
I was even more upset because it was all a fantasy.
“Oh dear. Don’t cry, Jaina. Why are you crying?”
“Just, just really thankful.”
Tears poured out in regret for a future that couldn’t be obtained.
Teresa held me, patting my back like my mother would.
“You must live happily, Jaina.”
“Yes, yes. I will.”
People as good as you should become happier.

I hoped for Teresa to meet a better partner. I thought the pain now was natural. But I felt I might have inflicted a bigger wound.
“You too must meet a better man, sis. Not a rascal like our brother, but an honest and good man.”
I felt guilty because I believed that man for Teresa was Nathaniel.
It seemed as if I had stolen her wonderful future.
“I will. I’ll meet a man completely different from Max, just as you said, Jaina.”
“You promised me.”
“Yes, yes. So stop crying.”
A sense of relief came with the patting hand on my back.
I felt strange.
It felt like healing. Though the one injured and hurt was Teresa.

In Teresa’s embrace, I cried and prayed that her path ahead would be filled with happiness.
