Ahhh! Anri closed her eyes tightly and struggled to escape. Edwin's arms around her waist didn’t budge at all. No, no. My cherry jelly... "Sh-should I clear it away?" Alyka was at a loss for where to look. Edwin's gaze grew even more sinister. "Take it away quickly." "Yes, sir." Alyka, bowing respectfully, approached the table. There was too much for her to carry alone, but she was determined to clear it away quickly. She couldn’t afford to delay the master and…-

"Eek!" Anri fled in a panic, as if her life depended on it. Edwin, who had been staring vacantly at her retreating figure, snapped back to reality in an instant. Realizing what had just happened, he covered his face with one hand. ‘...Has that woman lost her mind?’ He had felt a sudden chill while drying himself off after his bath. Thinking that perhaps the door had been left open, he turned around, only to see, unbelievably, Anri standing there. With her round eyes fixed…

The Duke's Secret "Madam, Madam." Anri awoke only when night fell. Had Anais not woken her, she might have slept until morning. In truth, Anri didn’t immediately realize that "Madam" was referring to her. It seemed like she would have to get used to being called "Madam" instead of "Miss." However, Anais seemed a bit awkward. She needed to get Anri cleaned up and ready for her wedding night. After stretching out lazily, Anri immersed herself in the bathtub. Perhaps…

"By the way, the ladies couldn't stop praising your dress." Anri quickly put on her business smile. "Thank you. I really like it too." "I know a thing or two about ladies' dresses myself, but I've never seen one quite like the one you're wearing." Anri and Erze exchanged a silent, quick conversation. There was no time. "Oh, it's a one-of-a-kind dress made by my servants." "Servants? Are you saying the servants of the duke's household made it themselves?" "Of course. They're…

Ha. Unbelievable. "Who are you?" Edwin gritted his teeth slightly. His usually emotionless eyes now showed a hint of menace. He had been watching the woman in men's clothing since she forced her way into the seat next to him. As expected, something was off. Even as the partners kept changing, Edwin never took his eyes off Anri. Seeing the woman dressed as the Duke of Evans speaking with Anri, he couldn’t help but feel wary. He couldn’t hear what they were talking about, but Anri was…

‘Ah, Your Grace…?’ Suddenly, Edwin stepped out of the group of men and began walking toward the women. With long legs and a wide stride, he quickly approached the ladies. Like the sea parting, the women moved aside. As if a different species had appeared, the noblewomen held their breath and focused on Edwin. "Wife." ‘Wife?’ Anri looked up. She had just begun to confront MadamRosley. She had no intention of backing down until she apologized for her…

Erze cleared her throat awkwardly and withdrew her embarrassed hand. In that moment, Edwin keenly observed the back of Erze's hand. It was smooth and long, without any curves. It was clearly a woman's hand. It was unmistakably a woman dressed as a man. Moreover, the person had a mature beauty about them. Though wearing a hat over her dark brown hair, if they removed the long wig and bushy mustache, no one would think she was a man. Even with such a perfect disguise, his eyes…

After a moment of dissatisfied sighs, Anri marched out with a bright face as if it were painted. She stood up and smiled brightly at the guests who were throwing flowers and applauding. Her eyes seemed to fold and curve to the point where they were no longer visible. Surrounded by flower petals and applause, she felt strange, uplifting joy. Could there be a greater blessing than this? It was bittersweet to think that a wedding where everyone’s attention was on her would only happen…

Anri wore a crown of leaves instead of a tiara. The lady’s maids had woven it together using rose leaves they picked from the garden. The crown made entirely of leaves, without a single flower, added a fresh touch to Anri's pink hair. And then there was the pure white dress. Though the wedding dress wasn't entirely out of sync with current trends—puff sleeves and lace were standard on every wedding gown—the dress Anri wore had no sleeves at all. The fabric on the upper body,…

Trends are like dazzling fixed ideas that cannot be easily ignored. The fact that the puffed sleeves were completely removed from the dress was innovative. She didn't even wear a crinoline to puff up the skirt or a corset to emphasize the waist. There were no large ribbons, frills, or lace decorations at all. This meant that, from the perspective of people in this era, the dress looked quite strange. Although it didn't match the current trends at all, it was a design that suited Anri well…
