A week passed quickly after Lea entered the Kaien ducal house as an administrative officer. It was somewhat disappointing that she had no opportunity to meet the current Duchess since she was confined to the office, but she was able to gather some information through conversations with the maids and butlers. First, the current Duchess and the Duke had a very poor relationship. According to the maids, despite the Duchess's constant attempts at seduction, the Duke didn't even glance at her and treated her…-

When she came up to the first floor, she deliberately spoke loudly enough for the shadow on the roof to hear, thanking Berchel for finding the book and saying she would come again as a customer, then left the antiquarian bookshop. As she moved, the shadow followed. However, when she returned home, the shadow disappeared as if this was as far as it would go. "I'm home." As Lea took off her shoes and removed her ring while entering the house, Abel came out from the kitchen wearing an apron and holding the…-

The next day, Lea arrived at the ducal residence as usual and handled documents while carefully observing the office and the Duke. When she looked at the Duke through her glasses, she could see red energy gathering around his heart area, indicating the degree of poisoning. However, she couldn't see any other medium that could be poisoning the Duke. As she observed intermittently, her gaze shifted when Jerome entered carrying tea. 'Could it be the tea?' She thought it unlikely they would use such a simple…-

While Lloyd whispered mockingly to Helen, who was gasping in fear and pain, Haen quietly withdrew. "...Why...is Your Highness doing such a thing...?" To her dazed murmuring, as if she couldn't believe the current situation, Lloyd roughly tore the slip covering her beautiful naked body with one hand and said: "I'll make you a memory you won't forget even in death." "No!!!!" Only then accepting the situation, Helen struggled and writhed to avoid his hands, but it was useless. Instead, as he mounted…-

"......" Ken and Helen, who had been sitting on the sofa waiting for Lea, turned their gazes to the uniformed handsome man standing beside them. Was his name Ian? After Lea disappeared, he stood there with his arms crossed and eyes closed, not moving even slightly. The atmosphere suggested he would remain like that for a lifetime if she didn't return, so the two prayed for Lea to come back quickly. And surprisingly, their wish was granted. Ian's eyes, which seemed like they would never open, slowly…-

'There it is.' Lea moved silently in that direction, and Ian followed behind her. However, as she approached the side of the hardware store, she furrowed her beautiful brow slightly. 'That's strange... I don't see a door?' She had clearly seen the man emerge with her own two eyes, but where the man had come out, there was only a wall—no door was visible. Despite the puzzling situation, she calmly examined the wall. After a moment, the corners of her mouth lifted slightly. There was a door. It…-

"...Is something wrong?" Seeing her standing there in a daze, Duke Kaien approached her with concern and asked worriedly. Coming to her senses at his appearance, Lea smiled slightly and answered. "...No. It's nothing... Fa...ther..." Though it came out awkwardly, the moment the word "father" left her lips, Duke Kaien's body stiffened and his eyes wavered intensely with emotion. In truth, after learning she was his daughter, he had wanted her to call him father, but burdened by guilt for failing to…-

At the word "mission," Hugo quickly knelt on one knee and bowed his head. However, his mind was still in turmoil. To think the Duchess and the young lady weren't in their hands... Could it be...? Hugo hastily erased the worst-case scenario that had crossed his mind. If that were the case, His Grace couldn't possibly be this calm. 'Please let them be safe.' He sincerely prayed for the Duchess and the young lady's safety as he focused on the Duke's voice. "From this moment on, ensure not even an ant…-

"This is pretty good. Doesn't look like it'll break easily either. More importantly, using someone like you as an opponent would be an insult to my sword." Though she was merely lifting the cane and lightly tapping it against her palm, Abram felt an inexplicable terror and hastily shouted. "Fibien! Where are you, Fibien!" He had naturally assumed Fibien would be standing outside the office door, but not only did he not enter, there was no sound of a response either. Only then did Abram realize…-

"My lady! Sir Hugo is coming up to the second floor with the knight order right now!" At the urgent cry of the maid who rushed in, Michelle's face, which had been staring fixedly at the magic communication device, twisted severely. "You gave me a defective product telling me to use it in emergencies?!" In the end, the magic communication device fell to the floor and shattered into pieces at the hands of the enraged Michelle. Huffing and puffing, she paced back and forth in the room, anxiously…-
