“Ash.”

“Lydia.”

My face glowed as soon as I heard his voice up close.

As soon as the friendly low-pitched sound intruded into my ears, my memories began to run wild.

So yesterday’s memory.

‘Lydia.’

How many times did Ash call my name yesterday?

And that wasn’t so different for me either. Every time I open my mouth, I think I called Ash’s name.

Besides, it is a bonus that the breathing sounds that seemed to pass between the two while calling the name were mixed.

Oh, no! Stop thinking.

If I can, I want to break through the floor and disappear. Then Ash asked.

“How are you feeling?”

“........!”

‘Don’t ask me that!”

I was trying my best not to imagine, but Ash came forward and was making nothing of it.

I managed to nod my head with a hot face.

At this time, Bessie suddenly stepped in to say it was resentful.

“Your Excellency also noticed it, right? That she’s not feeling well. I think you slept wrong last night. She said her back hurts.”

Argh! Bessie!

“Back?”

Ash’s gaze rested on my waist for a moment. At that moment I truly needed a rat hole.

I only need one good rat to share its hole. I’m begging you.

I thought so, but the next moment my body flashed.

It was Ash’s work. I suddenly opened my eyes round, hugging Ash.

“A, Ash?”

“Then the cause provider should be responsible. Don’t walk today.”

Hey, hey, hey!

I just puffed my mouth in a held position.

Bessie blinked because she was right next to me and didn’t miss Ash’s words.

“Provided cause.........?”

“Let’s get in.”

Even so, I wanted to disappear, but Ash hugged me and moved on.

I thought it would have been better off, as I was moved away from the training field by Ash, who strode.

If I had more, I would have dug up a hole in the ground and created a rat hole.

Shame and embarrassment crept up, I lifted my head up from Ash’s back neck along the way.

In the meantime, a fairly distant vision saw Bessie’s face gradually fading with enlightenment and shock.

........ Sorry, Bessie. I’ll make sure to explain it to you step by step.

I looked inwardly at Bessie, promising her next. I could see Ash’s straight side holding me in his familiar arms.

My heart thumped.

It was a mix of embarrassment before, but now it was full of tension and excitement.

Suddenly, I’ve become conscious of Ash’s hand which is supporting my body.

The solid upper body of Ash I was leaning on was also a constant concern.

I now know what shape the muscles in these clothes are drawing. I know how it moves when he’s nervous. I know how it burns and flows when sweat is formed.

How sensational it is when his eyebrows on his face are distorted as if holding up something..........

“.......”

‘An old man was looking for a marriage partner again. Yuck.’

There is another difference. The kite has been snapped off.

So the letter, which usually had asked me to meet rather than to date, disappeared and filled the entire place with a flood of letters saying, “Let’s get married.”

What does this mean?

‘They’re under the illusion that I’m nervous.’

They are the transparent ones anyway.

After hearing of my origin, they would have thought that I was about to be removed from the Duke.

Or be in a hurry to sell to any family.

That’s why these men are rushing to buy me before anyone else takes me for a bargain, and the ladies and the young children are trying to break up with me.

It’s obvious, it’s really obvious.

‘Oh, but still.’

I stared at the piles of firewood and the letters placed on the other half.

That letter, marked by a pink letter envelope decorated with lace at a glance, was from Irene.

‘Hmm.’

I recalled a young face that I met in a short moment but had quite ups and downs.

Irene’s letter arrived this morning. The content was that she invited me to her birthday party.

This morning is not the time when she still didn’t know my origins.

Or rather, she might have rushed to me after hearing the news.

The birthday party date on the letter was next month. I can’t believe she’s already sending me an invitation to the party next month.

A light smile suddenly appeared. How is she doing?

I don’t know if she still likes Sir Davery. She’d shifted her mind from Ash since the day of the hunting competition.

Well, if it’s still the case, I’ll sneak a look at it.

I thought so, but then Bessie hesitated for a moment as she handed me the letter.

I stared wonderfully at Bessie.

“Bessie, why?”

“This letter. There’s no sender.”

“Yeah?”

I flipped over the letter I received. As Bessie said, there was really no sender’s name.

“That doesn’t mean the family’s pattern is stamped........”

Some people sometimes substitute the sender with the pattern of their own family.

That’s how high-ranking noble’s way choose to take pride in their crest.

But there was no such thing in this letter. It was simply clean.

“What did you say to the messenger?”

“He doesn’t know. He only delivers it for money.”

“Hmm.”

In many ways, a doubtful letter has arrived. I fumbled over the surface of the letter while I was thinking about it.

Well, I don’t think there’s a cutter knife.

Wait, is there a cutter knife in the world? Well, it doesn’t feel suspicious anyway.

When Bessie saw me groping the letter and checking it, she asked carefully.

“Shall we call Alex and have him open the letter?”

“It’s all right.”

No matter how much Alex says it’s a neighbourhood book, that’s a bit too much.

After declining, I opened the entrance to the envelope. I could feel Bessie’s nervousness at the moment.

‘Isn’t that a fortune letter?’

But it wasn’t a fortune letter.

Instead......

[I know your secret.]

It was a threatening letter.
