“I don’t think it’s necessary to donate money or jewelry. I believe donations can also be made through songs, music, poetry, paintings, or even precious embroidery.” “Sonia’s words are correct. I will cherish anything that is given.” “If you plan to hold a charity event, when and where will it take place?” A woman raised her hand and asked. After a brief pause, Selena answered. “I’ll need to check the schedule, but for now, I’m thinking of holding it about a month…- 396.9 K • Completed
- “My thoughts are a little different. The cause of the fire in the first place was someone’s cigarette ember. I believe it’s unfair for the Craven family to bear all the responsibility.” At that, Lyett immediately handed the conversation over to Yudit. “What do you think, Your Highness?” As everyone’s attention turned to him, Yudit, not used to being the center of attention, blushed slightly in embarrassment. “I agree with some of what the lady said.” The crowd murmured.…

- “Are you leaving now? The carriage is ready.” After a moment of hesitation, Yudit spoke to the servant. “Can I borrow some paper and a pen? I’d like to send my thanks to His Grace.” “Yes, I’ll bring them right away.” One of the servants went out and soon returned with paper and a fountain pen. Although he had been invited almost by force, he couldn’t leave without expressing his gratitude after receiving such treatment. Yudit wrote a short note on the paper and placed it in…

- “Understood.” Yudit hadn’t done it expecting anything in return, but the price Khalid had paid was far too sweet. He let out a sigh of relief. ”……” With the issue resolved, reality sank in. Khalid was wearing only a thin robe, and Yudit was in his underclothes. And they were in the same room. Yudit swallowed dryly as he glanced at Khalid. It’ll be fine. He said he hates omegas… “Are you feeling unwell?” Noticing Yudit’s sudden change in behavior, Khalid…

- Even if he was told to sleep, there was no way he could in this position. Besides, wasn’t Khalid the one who had tried to kill him in his sleep? That thought alone drove away what little drowsiness he had felt. Instead of closing his eyes, Yudit decided to ask Khalid a question. “Your Grace, why did you stay until the very end?” Among those who had remained behind, there was no one Khalid had any particular ties with. Yudit hadn’t thought him to be the type to prioritize others’…

- Yudit tucked the curtain into his arms and ran back toward them. Just as he and Khalid were about six paces apart, the ceiling shook violently, sending embers cascading down. Several large sparks landed on Yudit, and broken bricks struck his shoulder and calf. The impact was too much—he stumbled and rolled across the floor. “Yudit!” “Your Highness!” Yudit raised a hand from where he had fallen, signaling that he was fine. Then, limping, he approached them. “This should be enough…

- The hand that had touched the burning wood was already peeling, with blisters forming one by one. Khalid bit his lip hard. “You would have died early even without me trying to kill you. The fact that you’re still alive is a miracle.” He took off his damp jacket and wrapped it around Yudit’s hand. The cool fabric against his palm eased the pain slightly. “You’ve done enough. Get out before the whole place collapses.” Yudit looked up at the ceiling. It seemed like he could hold out…

- “Fine. Keep that in mind. For the deep regard you have toward your friend, I will look after Markel myself, so you had better keep today’s conversation a secret.” Yudit spoke in a gentle coaxing tone. “You seem very drunk, so you had better return now. I will have the remaining wine sent to your quarters through a servant.” “Than-thank you.” Darion bobbed his head again and again as he gave thanks. He rose from his seat and staggered out of the dining hall. Yudit watched…

- “Then we adopt this plan.” After a long meeting the plan was finalized. Yudit and everyone else let out a sigh of relief. Once they learned that if a plan was good it would be accepted regardless of rank, the captains each rushed to propose theirs, and among them five useful ones were chosen. After every detail of those was examined the choices narrowed to two. A secret vote decided between the two, and in the end Darion’s plan was chosen. People clapped, the hall quickly filled with thunderous…

- Edmond looked at Yudit in confusion. Could this person make such a cold expression too? When he met Yudit again, he wanted to say he was sorry for daring to test him, he wanted to sincerely apologize, but with Yudit interrogating him like this, the apology he wanted to say disappeared. “Didn’t you say I just need to get my father’s permission?” “So, did you get the permission?” “Yes! I got it!” “Who can I confirm that fact with?” “You don’t need to confirm it. I…
