“The Claire Duke family is rumored to have restoration abilities, but that’s mere speculation. Oh, I read this in the royal secret archives, so don’t be surprised.”
Surprised by such revelations, Etienne avoided his gaze.
“Families with special abilities are rare. While few have the power to change the world, it’s true. Right?”
“Why mention this all of a sudden?”
“Royalty is different. Even with the same blood, the abilities vary.”
Special abilities appeared in very few individuals. They could be hereditary or spontaneously emerge.
But in the royal bloodline, abilities always manifested, however big or small.
“But I have no abilities.”
“Your Highness?”
His confession left Etienne visibly perplexed.
“I used all my abilities to save one person. Now they’re gone.”
Lehart seemed to be kindly explaining, but Etienne couldn’t grasp his words.
“I had the ability to see the future. One day, I realized I was going to die and used all my powers to disrupt the timeline of one person from a family supporting me. Now, they must know the future instead of me.”
“Why are you telling me this?”
Etienne repeated a similar question to what she had asked a little earlier.
“I’m trying to become close to you.”
Lehart’s unexpected response was accompanied by a smile.
“Seeing you close with Fernando made me want to be closer too. Sharing secrets is a way to become intimate, right?”
“So, you’re telling me this because of that?”
“Yes. Since you’ve heard it, you could help me find that person. I should have figured out who they are, but I didn’t.”
He admitted his negligence with a self-deprecating add-on.
“Even though you saved them, you don’t know who they are?”
“It was a deed of the future me, so I don’t know. That’s why I have to search personally. If I find them, maybe I can avoid my deadly fate.”
“Why didn’t you just make sure they would return after you’re gone?”
“That could have been an option, but I’m not entirely sure why my future self did it that way.”
Shrugging his shoulders, he seemed to have some guesses. Putting his words together, Etienne began to understand why he was visiting various families.
“How about it? Don’t you want to join the search after hearing this?”
“No.”
Etienne’s quick rejection brought a look of deep disappointment to Lehart’s face.
“That’s harsh.”
“I never said I wanted to know your secret.”
“Sharing secrets brings intimacy…”
“Stop using that excuse.”
Etienne cut him off, tired of his repeated justification.
“I have many things to do.”
“Such as? Saving the world, perhaps?”
“Not saving the world, but certainly saving someone’s heart.”
As Lehart looked curious, Etienne pulled out a piece of paper from her pocket.
“Wish fulfillment. I’ve decided to grant the wishes of those working at the Duke’s house.”
“Why do that?”
“Because I want them to be happy.”
Lehart still looked puzzled, but Etienne continued calmly.
“Anyway, I’m busy, so please find someone else to become close with.”
“Sneaky.”
With that comment, Lehart didn’t insist further and stood up.
After he left and the door closed, Etienne’s body slumped to the side.
Her body, which had pretended to be unaffected in front of Lehart, was now trembling uncontrollably. Despite her deep breaths and self-hypnosis attempts, the shivering wouldn’t stop.
After a while, she gasped in horror, murmuring to herself.
“The Crown Prince turned back my time?”
What was the future Crown Prince thinking, pouring his abilities into her?
Male lead first thought she played hard to get, only to realize she
really disliked him

At first he thought she was just using the trick of feigning indifference to attract his attention. Later, he learned that she truly despised him.
