The girl who had been anxiously looking at Yuri Hsien smiled brightly as their eyes met, then hopped away and disappeared. It seemed she had been anxious the whole time because Yuri Hsien had not returned at the promised time.
The servants replaced the melted marble in an instant with skilled craftsmanship and disappeared. Even the finishing work to make the new marble not stand out was perfect. Watching this, Yuri Hsien asked in the bedroom, where even Andersen had left.
“Did you confirm it?”
Earlier, Wergen had wondered if he really loved Kendali and wanted to confirm it. That’s why he had met her and almost got poisoned. Leaning against the pillow supported by Yuri Hsien, Wergen thought quietly and shook his head.
“It’s too short a time to be sure. But… but at least now, I don’t think I love her. It’s… just not feeling anything.”
Wergen said, squinting his eyes. His hand tapped the edge of his chest.
“When I see you, Yuri, it hurts here… as if it’s being squeezed. I feel like I’ve committed an unforgivable sin for a lifetime against you, even without memories. Perhaps it’s the guilt of letting you fall into that woman’s clutches.”
“Don’t say that, father.”
“It’s not just that. I feel a distant happiness towards you, as if it’s not the love for a daughter, I wonder what else it could be. Just watching you makes me feel that way.”
Thanks to that, Wergen added that he was sure that he had a daughter, and that daughter was Yuri Hsien.

“But I don’t feel anything for that woman. Whether I see her pleading for her life or see her tears, I feel only indifference. So… I can’t judge rashly without memories, but maybe… maybe I was brainwashed.”
Wergen’s words somehow filled Yuri Hsien’s heart.
In fact, Yuri Hsien had been captivated by one thought while riding in the carriage. That thought was, ‘Even without memories, is he the same person?’
She kept wondering, ‘Is it right to force the great Windsor on Wergen, who has forgotten the great Windsor?’ ‘Is my desire to fix everything just grand selfishness?’
But now, Wergen had shattered that worry.
“I will regain my memory. But before that, I want to resolve the sorrow you have experienced due to my absence.”
Wergen held Yuri Hsien’s hand with a gentle and reassuring touch. Over that consolation, Yuri Hsien shed a tear that she thought had stopped earlier.
She was surprised at herself. Was she a person so full of tears, a person who could only cry? But she didn’t feel bad.
“Yes, dad.”
Yuri Hsien was now able to playfully tease Wergen with her mind at ease.
I was finally able to confess that what had happened during that time was too precarious and frightening. And Ulergen was furious when he heard the news with a very Ulergenlike face that Yuri Hsien was to marry the Hopgrand Duke of Change.

“Call Andersen. I must send a message to the Hopgrand Duke of Change right away.”
Yuri Hsien, relieved at how sturdy her body was as she tried to rise from her seat, held back her laughter and said,
“You still can’t write?”
“Don’t you eat because you have no teeth? You can draw.”
She burst into irrepressible laughter at his confidently raised chin.
This recklessness, this absurd talk when it came to Yuri Hsien, setting aside everything else.
I really missed it.
Already everything felt as if it had found its place. But no matter how happy, happiness tends to be fleeting rather than enduring.
A few days later, Yuri Hsien was to experience a new setback.
For example, Heathcliff would personally step forward, saying that there were faults committed by me, and as an apology, announce a breakup, actively promoting a glorious marriage with the Hopgrand Duke of Change.
