“Three days from now, the competition begins with the banquet. You will be the one escorting the lady to the competition hall. You understand what this means, right?”
“Yes.”
“Given the situation, it seems like we don’t need to intervene directly since among the candidates, she is apparently the weakest. But don’t let your guard down.”
“Yes.”
Millie, summoned secretly to Housekeeper Bridget’s room, answered her instructions in short responses.
“What is the lady doing now?”
“…She said she felt stifled and went for a walk.”
“This late? The villa is built on a carved hillside, and it’s easy to get lost if one strays too far from the pond. That’s why we marked the perimeter with vines.”
“She goes for walks whenever she has time… So far, she hasn’t lost her way. I’ll be more vigilant from now on.”
Housekeeper Bridget narrowed her wrinkled brow and spoke slowly.
“I thought you were smart, but apparently not. My point is, if the lady takes a wrong turn and exits the villa… it would be to our advantage. Unauthorized exits of candidates are prohibited. If it’s discovered she left the villa for any reason, she could lose points in the competition or even be expelled.”
Millie bowed her head upon realizing something she hadn’t considered, and the housekeeper added,
“From now on, pretend to follow her, but if she strays from the pond, don’t follow. If she accidentally crosses the vine fence and leaves the villa, things will be much easier for us.”
“Yes.”
Holding the envelope containing thirty silver coins given by the housekeeper, Millie responded.
‘This will cover my youngest sibling’s treatment expenses for three months.’
As Millie left the housekeeper’s room and walked past the side door of the villa towards the annex, she spotted Rosa carrying new bedding.
Rosa, walking towards the eleventh annex, suddenly stopped as if she had a thought, then turned back and started walking in the opposite direction.
Millie, hiding behind a magnolia tree, watched Rosa’s retreating figure. Rosa’s head moved busily, checking her surroundings.
Once assured she was alone, Rosa quickly ran towards the third annex. The door opened without even a knock, and she disappeared inside.
Millie’s lips formed a straight line as she emerged from behind the tree.
‘The third annex is where Princess Liliebet of Seville resides.’
That figures. You’re no different from me, sticking to whoever benefits you. Especially for people like us, who have nothing.
Millie thought about the change in attitude of those who had been fawning over their lady, and now, cast aside by the Emperor, must be burning with regret and second-guessing their choice.
Hearing they weren’t originally intended to serve her, it was clear there was no loyalty or affection.
Feeling the envelope of coins in her apron pocket, Millie thought,
“Perfect for sowing discord. Things are moving too smoothly.”
She murmured to herself and headed towards the annex.
“I’ve been watching her because she’s been fussing over that girl too blatantly.”
Princess Liliebet lounged leisurely on the sofa in the drawing room, scrutinizing Rosa from top to bottom, who had just entered.
“A meticulous plan is essential for a great undertaking, but the initiative to carry out the plan is equally important. Your reckless courage is very appealing to me.”
Princess Liliebet twirled her shiny, curly blonde hair around her finger, lifting her chin proudly. Her attendant placed a small silver box, the size of a palm, on the table.
“Open it.”
As Rosa stood staring blankly, Princess Liliebet urged her to open the box. Hesitantly, Rosa carefully opened the box and her dark eyes widened in astonishment. Inside was a golden egg made of pure gold.
“Once I become the empress, I won’t forget your contribution. I promise to let you work in the First Maid Division of the Empress’s Palace.”
“What do you need me to do?” asked Rosa, swallowing hard and speaking with a trembling voice. Princess Liliebet’s lips curled up in satisfaction at the sight of the maid dazzled by the sight of the jewel egg.
“First, prove your capabilities. At the upcoming banquet, switch Arabella’s dance shoes. Ensure she can’t dance by tampering with her shoes during the dance session when all the candidates will be changing shoes. If you succeed, I’ll accept you as one of my own.”
Rosa, pale-faced, hesitated before speaking.
“I thought this banquet wasn’t included in the competition…”
“What does that matter? It’s just an appetizer before the main course. There’s no better way to shatter someone’s mentality. Imagine the shock of being humiliated in front of everyone, unable to properly compete in the actual competition. Do you know how many girls I’ve sent away this way in the first competition? Haha.”
Princess Liliebet’s beautiful blue eyes flashed cruelly as she let out a sharp laugh.
Rosa, having tucked the golden egg in the silver box into her undergarment pocket, left the princess’s annex and quickly disappeared into the darkness.

Was I nothing but his substitute to you from beginning to end?”
