With every step he took, his short, silvery white hair fluttered, and his faint blue eyes shone mysteriously. His sleek features and tightly closed lips were as cold and chilly as a glacier.
“I apologize for my tardiness, Your Majesty.”
He paid his respects to the Emperor with a face devoid of a smile.
An icy expression that seemed as if he had never smiled.
“Are you late because you covet my gift?”
“Do you not intend to grant me permission?”
“Of course, I’ll grant it. If the Viscount desires it.”
When the Emperor nodded, the chief servant opened a box and extended it to Viscount Vice.
In the box were meticulously made cookies, a cake in the shape of a cup, and small tarts, each neatly wrapped. It was so beautiful that it was a pity to mistake it for an urn.
The Viscount picked a cookie from the box and put it in his mouth.
Everyone watched with bated breath.
Of course, most of the women watched his lips full of longing. His red, glossy lips were so seductive that they could make one forget he was a man.
After a moment, the Viscount said to the Emperor,
“This is the best cookie I’ve ever tasted.”
“Unexpected. I didn’t know that the Viscount knew the taste of cookies.”
He slightly furrowed his brows.
“Did you think I eat raw meat or something?”
The Emperor laughed loudly as if to let everyone hear,
“Now he seems docile, but on the battlefield, there was no beast more ferocious. I fell for that wild look of the Viscount.”
“If you keep saying things like that, I will not accept your invitations next time.”
“You, don’t you think you’re asking too much? I’m still the Emperor.”
“That’s why I’m accommodating.”
“Well, I appreciate it very much.”
People were surprised to hear the conversation between the Emperor and the Viscount.
The Emperor in front of them was rumored to be coldblooded. Even most nobles sweated in his presence.
But the two exchanged words like jokes. Moreover, it seemed like the Emperor was yielding.
It was not just a rumor that he cherished the Viscount.
“Then shall we try one?”
After tasting the cookie, the Emperor, with a satisfied expression, suggested to the Empress and others.
“It’s really too good to eat alone. Everyone should try one.”
At this point, everyone eagerly took a bite. While watching the Emperor and Viscount Vice, they did not forget to sing praises about how delicious it was.
In the blink of an eye, the villainess Adel became a dessert expert.
[Star Icon][Star Icon][Star Icon]But Adel looked even worse than before. Her face was pale as if she would faint at any moment.
Her deep green eyes were constantly fixed on Viscount Vice.
Perhaps it was because of that hair. Such beautiful silver hair was not common.
No, not just the hair, but no matter how you look at it, the Viscount looked very much like that boy.
‘Chris……’
Even after ten years, she felt a little choked up when she thought of his name.
The boy who blocked her way, whom she couldn’t tell not to go, hanging tears on his long eyelashes, pulling at the hem of her sleeve with his cracked hands.
When the memory of that day came up, Adel quickly bowed her head.
‘It’s impossible!’
That man was Viscount Vice.
The Viscount was not only a war hero but also a wealthy man who owned diamonds, gold mines, and various banks.
But the boy she knew was the son of an ordinary miner.
By now, he would have become a miner, and if he married early, he would have become a father.
And he would have forgotten all about her and lived on.
More than anything, those icy eyes couldn’t belong to Chris. He was a child who smiled warmer and prettier than anyone else.
‘Yes, that person is Viscount Vise. Just a lookalike…’

Shortly after, a waltz began to flow in the ballroom.
The ladies rushed towards Viscount Vise, their eyes sparkling. They were hoping for him to ask them to dance. If they were to be his partner today, they would be the envy of the social circle for a while.
However, the Viscount slipped through the crowd and moved somewhere else.
With big strides.
He was heading towards Adel without a hint of hesitation, his long legs in boots making their way.
Everyone watched in disbelief, and Adel’s eyes widened.
Even though she thought it wasn’t possible dozens of times in her mind, she couldn’t take her eyes off him.
‘Chris… is it really you… or not?’
She was halfhoping it was him and halfhoping it wasn’t.
It was too miserable to meet him like this after he had left.
But she wanted to see him at least once before she died.
The child who was always on her side.
He was always there in the time of her happiness.
Standing tall.
He finally stopped in front of Adel, respectfully bent one knee. Then, with his big right hand outstretched,
“Will you be my partner?”
He asked her to dance.
For a moment, Adel’s world seemed to stop.
She couldn’t hear or see anything.
Staring blankly at the man with dazzling silver hair, she placed her hand on his. As if bewitched.
With a firm grip!
His big, solid hand clasped hers.
With his long arms, he wrapped her slender waist and pulled her close.
Adel was surprised and looked up.
In an instant, she was stuck, unable to move, in the wide and solid embrace of the man.
Then, a soft bass voice whispered into her ear.
“It’s been a long time, Adel.”
