The daughter born of such an ordinary woman inherited only the good points of both parents, growing more beautiful as the years went by.
Her father only watched her grow once or twice in his lifetime.
Because he was soon deeply enthralled by another fresh charm.
It was purely thanks to the consideration of the Countess of Berium that Lilia, who had never properly seen her philandering father’s face, came to this house.
More precisely, it was because of her greed, disguised as consideration.
She wanted the title of a generous wife, who even embraces a child born outside her husband. And she wanted to be a model example of a lady.
The servant’s daughter, brought in to show off, became an object of contempt and ridicule for Liz.
“Sister…….”
It was only natural that she feared Liz.
Liz reminded her of the original work, as she looked at the palefaced woman, licking her lips.

「Liz filled the sink with water and shoved Lilia’s face into it, only letting go just before she ran out of breath.」
It was fortunate that she became aware of the possession before committing such a crazy act. Really, really fortunate.
“Sister…….”
Lilia, who interpreted Liz’s gaze rippling with deep relief differently, rubbed their clasped hands together without stopping, expressing her anxiety.
Indeed, she might as well be. From the beginning, she was harsh with her eyes and spewed a lot of nasty remarks, and recently she heard that she was rejected twice in a row, so she must think I’m feeling very uncomfortable.
Instead of reassuring Lilia, Liz bit at Kain.
“Kain, shouldn’t you take care of your master first? That’s the role of a servant, right?”
She could not think of a more appropriate response.
Liz came down to the lower floor without saying a word, leaving Kain, who remained silent, and Lilia, who looked at her with trembling eyes.
I was afraid her leg might buckle in the middle, but fortunately, nothing like that happened.

Liz, who safely reached the garden, leaned back on a bench under a willow tree, receiving the cool breeze, thinking about the two people she had met a little earlier.
‘Are they still like this?’
I wish they would confirm their love sooner, even a day earlier. So that they would leave this house after some sweet cooing. Looking at how things were going, it seemed too early yet.
But well, the fire will catch soon. Because love or affection deepens in proportion to the time they stick together.
Yes, it should have been like this from the beginning. Acting foolishly and pathetically.
When I thought of the old days when I knew nothing and unconditionally threw myself at the male lead, I felt so pathetic that I couldn’t bear it.
Thump[Dash].
Liz hit her head hard.

“I brought water.”

Kain handed a glass of water to Lilia, speaking.
“Thank you. And I’m sorry. For asking you to do this.”
Lilia said, her face turning red.
“No, it’s something I should do as a servant.”
“…….”
“Is there anything else you would like me to do?”
“Um…….”
While Lilia was considering if there was anything else she needed, Kain’s gaze was fixed on the window.
Liz, sitting under the willow tree, was visible, kicking the grass with her toes.
Kain knew well that it was Liz’s habit when she was deeply engrossed in thought.

‘What is she thinking?’
For a moment he was puzzled. Suddenly Kain’s aquamarine eyes widened. Liz had hit her head hard. Several times.
“If there’s nothing else for me to do, I’ll retire.”
Kain interrupted her words and immediately left the room.
The remaining Lilia was left with a blank expression. It was not exactly unpleasant, but it was regrettable.
She wanted to get closer.
Lilia sighed deeply, lost in regret for a moment, and turned her eyes to the window. Then something caught her eye.
Kain, who had abruptly retreated and cut her off, was with her sister!
He even picked her up in his arms. Was it because her sister’s leg was uncomfortable? So was he carrying her to the house?
Sure. It’s possible. Kain was my sister’s servant before he was mine.
But why do I feel bad? What is this feeling that something of mine has been stolen? Has the concept that Kain is mine been established in the meantime?

Lilia was confused. And her sister seemed extremely annoying. It seemed as if she had deliberately sat in a spot where she could look down from her room and lure Kain.
But soon she shook her head violently to shake off such rude thoughts.
‘It’s not okay to hate. I’m not a person who hates others, right? My sister is like that, isn’t she?’
Lilia was sincerely surprised that she could even harbor such hatred.
‘Our Lilia is good, right? You have to listen to the lady’s words and live well.’
‘Miss Lilia is like an angel. You must have never hated anyone. If you ever hate someone, it’s really because the other person has done something to deserve it.’
Lilia quickly regained her composure.
There’s a reason for her hatred.
‘It’s all my sister’s fault.’
