Even the clothes worn by the passing servants seemed more expensive than the dresses that Rebecca had carefully stored in one corner of the house.
It wasn’t for nothing that there was a joke that a precious house slave had a good complexion.
“Miss.”
Ian called me from behind. I had walked absentmindedly, looking around the house, and was far from Ian.
“Oh, sorry!”
Startled, I hurried over to him. Ian frowned slightly at my words. He looked somewhat displeased. I resolved not to be distracted from now on.
He replied shortly.
“No.”
When I entered the room, a few maids had placed steaming teacups and simple snacks on the table. The savory and sweet smell stimulated my nostrils.
Ian led me to the table and sat me down.
“Wait here for a moment.”
I swallowed my dry saliva. Even then, my eyes were fixed on the cookies in front of me.
‘Those cookies look delicious.’
It had been raining for a few days, and there was nothing to eat at home, so I hadn’t eaten properly. It was natural that my whole mind was focused on the cookies in front of me.
“You will soon meet the Duke. He is…….”
I didn’t hear what Ian was saying at all.
In my head, two voices were just busy wrestling with each other.
‘Can I eat it? Is it okay to eat?’
They were too precious foods for me to eat.
‘I might not be allowed to eat.’
I firmly clenched my hand that felt as if it would reach out at any moment and braced myself.
Let’s not cause unnecessary accidents.
As I was calming myself, suddenly, I felt the surroundings become quiet.
With a strange heart, I looked up to find Ian staring at me intently. When their eyes met, Ian spoke again.
“You may eat if you wish.”
At the unexpected words, I blinked my eyes a couple of times. Ian opened his mouth again.
“Do you not like cookies? Shall I order something else?”
My eyes widened. My goodness, are there people who don’t like cookies?
I stared at him in surprise, and Ian seemed to really be thinking of ordering something else.
“No, no!”
As if he was about to take away the plate with cookies, I spoke hurriedly.
“I don’t dislike them!”
Not only did I like them, but I also secretly ate a cookie that had once been a gift to Rebecca. How sweet and delicious it was.
That was the best taste I’d ever had in my life.
He smiled softly at my quick answer.
“Yes, then please let me know if there is anything else you need.”
“Yes……”
I didn’t really hear what Ian said. I slowly picked up a cookie and put it in my mouth and chewed.
‘Delicious.’
The cookie I had eaten before couldn’t even be compared. In an instant, the ranking of the best food I had ever eaten in my life was reversed.
In the ship’s hold, there were desperate cries for more food, but I held my knees tight and turned my eyes away from the cookies.
‘You mustn’t eat too much.’
Eating too much earns the adults’ ire at once. Judging from Yan’s behavior up to now, he was trying to be kind to me, and I didn’t want to be hated by him.
“Miss, would you like me to bring more?”
I tightly closed my mouth and shook my head. Instead, I decided to ask something I had been curious about.
“By the way, sir knight.”
“Yes, speak up.”
“Why do you keep calling me Miss?”
“Because you are the daughter of the one I serve.”
I didn’t understand that right away. The Duke has no daughters, and I don’t understand why he brought me here and keeps saying I’m his daughter.
Didn’t the Duke say yesterday that I wasn’t his daughter?
Of course, if my memories from my previous life hadn’t returned, I might have thought I could really be the Duke’s lost daughter.
But the Duke has no biological children. He only has adopted sons. This was a certain fact.
I couldn’t explain to Yan about my previous life’s memories, so I answered simply.
“I am not the Duke’s daughter.”
Yan licked his lips a few times before he finally spoke.
“It’s hard for me to tell you the whole story. However, the Duke said you are indeed his daughter, and he told me to bring you.”
Yan spoke slowly and deliberately, as if he were telling me a definite fact. By now, I had no choice but to doubt.
‘Is the Duke trying to accept me as his daughter?’
Surely he wouldn’t have been fooled by Rebecca’s scam.
‘Why me?’
As I was pondering this alone, the door opened.
“Where is she?”
A chilly voice was heard, and all the maids standing around backed away.
“My lord.”
Yan also stood up from his seat and moved behind me.
But since Yan was the most familiar person here, I felt a little uneasy when he disappeared from my sight.
‘It’s okay, Yan is standing behind me now.’
I tried to calm my anxious heart and turned my head toward the direction from which the unfamiliar voice had come.
And then my body froze with tension.
Was it because we were close up?
It was even more terrifying than when I had seen him yesterday.
I thought Yan was scary when I first saw him. Not his face, but the sharp atmosphere felt in his body and demeanor.
But compared to the man who just appeared, that was nothing.
It was Crustel Duke, whom I saw yesterday.
The air around me seemed scarce, and I felt a suffocating sensation.
Even though his expression showed no malice towards me, I felt this way.
The Duke smiled at me, but his eyes weren’t laughing.
“It’s the child from yesterday.”
It was when the Duke reached out his hand to me. I flinched back in that instant.
I lost my balance and thudded to the floor, landing on my buttocks.
The Duke, who had reached out his hand to me, hesitated for a moment.
The smile that had been on his lips disappeared, and one eyebrow rose.
When the male lead is punished by carrying the female lead’s child and having periods like a woman
“I’ve given birth to two children for you, yet you still think about him.
Was I nothing but his substitute to you from beginning to end?”
