After we went to see the fountain of magic last night, the Duke decided to leave the castle immediately the next morning.
I, Daisy, and Grandma were standing at the front of the castle’s door to see him off.
“Thank you for everything, Madame and ladies,” Logan said after taking the reins from the footman.
“Logan, if you ever come to the capital, contact me. I’ll treat you to a sumptuous meal you’ve never seen before.” Daisy said with a deceptively sweet tone.
Although it might sound like consideration for Logan, I could tell that she was looking down on him in secret.
I’ll treat you to a meal you’ve gap with Daisy.
If we refuse Daisy, we’ll get away from her. I declined without regret and then throw a remark.
“More than that, I wonder about your fiance.”
Daisy leaned back in the seat, shaking her head. “I haven’t had a formal engagement yet, so he’s really not my official fiance. We are not at that stage to introduce him to you.”
I see. I was hoping Daisy would marry Count Page in this lifetime. Perhaps marrying Daisy won’t end the Count’s lineage, but…depending on the Count’s character, would he accept Daisy as his wife?

It wasn’t until two days later that I arrived at the Nelson Manor.
However, is there something wrong? My father summoned me as soon as I entered my room. I asked Nancy, who came to deliver the message.
“Who is the visitor?”
“I’m not sure, Miss. I only saw his back, and it was a young man next to the Master.” Nancy said with dreamy eyes and was shrilling in a hushed tone.

Then I was convinced. There were some details that don’t happen exactly as in the past, so unlike before, he might have to get in touch sooner than expected.
By the way, did he come in person? He had only sent an invitation in my previous life.
Head flooded with questions, I opened the door to the drawing-room where he and my father would be situated.
“……”
What is this? Why?
I stopped short at the sight awaited me when I entered the parlor. The man who appeared sitting across father was someone I never expected to meet here today.
Oblivious to the shock that held me rooted to the floor, my father laughed and addressed me.

“Sienna, say hello to Count Page.”
NO! Why is he here?!
A few seconds of silence passed. I stared at the face of my ex-husband, George, with silent disdain. It was as if I stood like a pillar amidst the storm. Contrary to my stiff posture, my brain was whirling with many thoughts.
Why is he here? George has nothing to do with me now. Did Daisy mention me to him? Is this about my engagement? This scene never occurred in my previous life.
Oh, no. I pulled up my schedule and came back earlier, so I wouldn’t have known what happen on this day here in the manor.
