I clearly saw Laila and Dalina’s eyes meet.

But Dalina smiled innocently as if she hadn’t felt Laila’s glare.

I don’t know if it’s because she’s clueless or doing it on purpose.

‘Hahaha, Dalina. You must have heard less of the wicked Ellen’s rumors.’

Contrary to my inner feelings, I smiled refreshingly.

“As you wish.”

Philip, Enoch, and Dalina took seats at a table near the evil musicians. At the next table, Marlboro and Laila sat with Alexandre.

I snapped my fingers and called Mrs. Polter.

“Yes, representative.”

“You see the young lady next to the Count?”

Mrs. Polter lowered her voice so that only I could hear.

“Yes, I’ll take care of it.”

“……?”

‘Handle? I haven’t instructed yet?’

When I widened my eyes, Mrs. Polter, who rolled up her sleeves, questioned with eager eyes.

“I’ve seen it all, representative. You want to lighten the young lady’s body, who doesn’t understand hints and acts unnecessarily, don’t you?”

“Lighten?”

Mrs. Polter covered her mouth with one hand and made a gesture of eating something.

And she pointed to the back of the boutique building with a wicked smile.

“It’s better not to see unpleasant guests on the boutique opening day, isn’t it? For our representative’s peace.”

There’s a bathroom behind the building. I guessed what she was going to do.

What I thought was just spilling strawberry juice on the beige dress by mistake and sending her home.

A small mistake by an employee is something I could shamelessly defend.

“Is it dangerous? Bad for health?”

“Not really. It will just stimulate bowel movements. And the end will be a light body.”

Her alternative didn’t seem bad then.

Rather, if not caught, it could be attributed to a natural physiological phenomenon.

“Okay. I’ll take responsibility if caught.”

Mrs. Polter bowed her head with a gentle smile.

“I’ll make sure that never happens.”

Soon, the tables near the square fountain were filled with invited guests.

The serving staff moved flawlessly following Mrs. Polter’s instructions.

Soon, various fruit juices, including Wild Strawberry Fairy’s Kiss, and bitesized finger foods were served on individual plates, lined up on the tables.

And Mrs. Polter personally served Philip and the surrounding tables.

From afar, she poured each person’s desired juice into crystal glasses and added just one pie, slightly larger than a grape, to an adorable dessert plate.

Dalina was seen smiling brightly at the cute and charming desserts.

The way she comfortably put the finger food in her mouth was also impressive.

At that moment, Mrs. Polter looked at me, smiled mysteriously, and nodded her head.

It was clear that something was in the finger food that Dalina ate.

‘I guess that way there’s no chance of getting caught.’

Soon, exclamations popped up from the surroundings.

“My goodness, what’s this?”

“Oh, something new.”

“The color is quite beautiful.”

“Both the juice and dessert are very tasty.”

“It really feels refreshing.”

“What’s the name of this juice?”

The invited guests, who had tasted Mrs. Polter’s fruit juices and various desserts, praised one after another.

As I went around the tables entertaining the guests, I thought about expanding the cafeteria.
Originally, the cafeteria was intended to operate on a small scale for those coming to buy candles, but with this kind of response, the food and beverage section could be expanded.

The nobles are reacting this way, so it would be very popular among commoners as well.

‘Shall I actively use the outdoor stairs on the second floor for takeout?’

The nobles were enjoying their teatime amicably in the square, and people gathered at a reasonable distance around them.

It seemed to have sparked curiosity, as it was a scene that was rarely seen.

‘Good, I have caught the eye of the general clientele who will spread word of mouth about the main customers.’

It was slowly time for the grand opening.

I lined up the employees and stood at the very front, clearing my throat.

“Ahem. Dear ladies and gentlemen.”

It was an ordinary opening line, but I couldn’t help it as I’m not very good at speaking.

Regardless, the eyes of the invited guests and gathered people focused on me, and even passersby stopped in their tracks, their faces filled with curiosity.

“I sincerely thank you for joining and brightening this grand opening during your busy times. First of all, the owner of this territory, Count Philip Morris, and…….”

Philip’s eyes sparkled and he smiled contentedly as I called his name first.

A small gift box was placed in front of him.

“Please open the gifts at the same time later.”

The gift was a very small candle prepared for the opening. Philip nodded at my request.

“Courageous, wise, and promising Marlboro Morris and his wife Laila Morris.”

Marlboro and Laila looked at each other’s faces and held hands. My calling was quite embarrassing, but the atmosphere was pleasant.

Small gift boxes were placed in front of both of them as well.

I looked back once.

My employees were fluttering their eyes, looking very excited.

“All of you employees who will lead this business together. And……. ”

I now began to call the names of invited guests such as Alexandre, adding brief compliments.

Elegant charm overflowing from Lady SoandSo, the intellectual Count BlahBlah, etc.

A small gift box was placed in front of the person called.

It was both a flattering remark to encourage them to use our boutique and a grand opening gift.

But it didn’t feel forced. It was thanks to the adjectives attached to Philip, Marlboro, and Laila.

Even if it seemed forced or flattering, it didn’t matter.

‘Who among the nobles would hate even empty but kind words?’

It was just as I guessed.

A soft smile appeared on the lips of the invited guests as their names were called.

And the more I called, the more Dalina began to roll her eyes from side to side.

Perhaps curious about what compliment would be attached to her name?

“And…….”

Now it was time to call Delina.

“Cough! ……Your grace. Cough! Ah, I apologize.”

At my cough, one of the employees quickly brought a glass of water. After taking a sip, I purposely gave a bitter smile.

“Oh my, is there such a mistake? A sudden cough… You’ll understand, won’t you?”

It was a deliberate cough, so it couldn’t be a mistake.

Whether she is Philip’s future remarriage partner or not, I don’t want to praise someone who secretly snooped in my room, even in vain.

There was no choice but to place a gift box.

The nobles sent me a calm applause, full of affection.

It was a sign that everything was fine.

That’s when it happened.

Dalina’s face tightened, and she became thoughtful.
