In the frigid atmosphere, I received hotter and more enthusiastic looks than ever.
The pupils of the vassals, maids, and dress room staff were shaking like there was an earthquake.
I glanced up.
The Duke of Paeraton was staring at the uncle who asked me the question.
Looking at the uncle, he was rolling his eyes back and shedding something, I didnât know if it was sweat or tears.
I thought he was muttering something, but I couldnât hear him well.
âWife, son, I couldnât even say goodbyeâŚâ I think I just heard something along those lines.
Next to him, another man comforted him, saying, âIâll take care of your son until heâs all grown up.â
âMy- my lady, think again. Didnât you say you liked him?â
Another retainer asked with a desperate look.
Well, thereâs nothing we can do.
âYeah, I like you, dad. This muchâŚâŚâ
I once again spread my index finger and thumb as wide as a bean.
The lips of the vassals turned blue at the confirmed death.
As soon as I glanced up at the Duke, our eyes met.
No emotion could be read from the red eyes.
I smiled broadly at the eyes, not avoiding them.
â-I donâât!â
A clear voice reverberated in the quiet room.
âAs much as all of everything in the universe combined, minus this amount from space!â
I stretched my arms out to the full.
âI like my dad that much!â
What do you think? This is the K-Joke!
Korean joke!
âHeuk.â
âCoughâŚâ
âCough, HeukâŚ!â
There were groans everywhere.
People suffered from acute atrial fibrillation, holding their hearts or had difficulty breathing.
The tension was all over the place, but the Duke of Paeraton did not respond.
He just looked at me.
âWas, was it too muchâŚâ
Late embarrassment came upon me.
The Duke opened his mouth as I was sweating, and could not avoid his eyes.
âI couldnât hear you.â
Sorry?
âI couldnât hear you.â
âAre, are you telling me to say it again?â
The face of the most expressionless Duke, it seemed to be wrong, butâŚ
I wasnât sure about it, but I just opened my mouth.
âI, I like my dad as much as the world except this amountâŚâ
He turned his head away from me without much reaction.
âWasnât this right?â
I just said something shameful again.
Tch, as I pouted out my lips, the Duke asked the vassals.
âDid you hear what my daughter said?â
âWe heard it!â
âThe Youngest Miss really loves you!â
âIâm curious to know the secret of how to be loved by your daughter so much!â
One side of the Dukeâs mouths rose haughtily.
It seems like youâre in a good mood after being flattered.
âWhat, Duke⌠so childishâŚâ
I was a little nervous and looked at the Duke with cloudy eyes.
At that moment, the Dukeâs face turned to me.
ââŚâŚbut why did you take that much away?â
Oops.
It was a surprise question.
âWhat should I do? Thereâs no more ad-lib.â
Because both the speaker and the listener are in a state of panic, my hands and feet are shriveled up.
I never thought youâd ask this question.
The world of Rofan, itâs not easy!
âBecause Iâll like you even more from now on.â
I opened my mouth thinking up an answer.
âIf Iâm with my dad. If I spend time with my dad.â
âYeah, if you donât let me go and let me live here. â
âIf we continue to be together, Iâm sure Iâll like you better!â
The uncle nodded with a flabby face to my words.
âThatâs why you took this much out.â
âYes!â
âYouâre still young, and yet youâre so thoughtful.â
âHow can you be so goodâŚ!â
âAs expectedâŚ. itâs genetic.â
By the way, why does the designer sister keep saying something like that?
As the surrounding noise passed through one ear and out the other, I looked up to the Duke.
He didnât react at all. No, he just looked at me with a firmer face than before.
âIt was a very embarrassing ad-lib.â
Tch.
I pouted my mouth.

Yutraâs POV
After a disturbance, Yutra, who had finished measuring, frowned.
âThe size is different from the previous order.â
She didnât bother to ask.
It would be like pointing out that the measurements sent by the Duke were wrong.
âBy the way, the dress I made the other day must have been big because it was made to fit that sizeâŚâ
I really wanted to see the young princess wearing it, but it was a shame.
âAll the dresses I chose today are tailored to the size that was sent before, so Iâm in a bind.â
Yutra bowed to the Duke.
âThe dresses you bought will be a little larger than the Missâ size, but there will be no problem with trying on.â
All of the clothes Iâm showing now were special and great works by Yutra.
âThatâs why even if you sell just one piece, the price is higher than a monthâs sales!â
Yutra waited for the princess to try on the clothes with a deep smile.
But no matter how much time passed, the Duke of Paeraton never let go of his daughter.
In the end, she had no choice but to open her mouth first.
âWell, Duke, if you want her to try the dress, you have to put her downâŚâ
âWhy does she need to try it on?â
A low voice cut her off.
âWhat? To choose what you likeâŚâ
Of course a try on is needed.
You canât choose the dress that exceeds the cost of living for a middle-class family for three months without even trying them on.
The Duke of Paeraton said to the bewildered Yutra.
âIâm going to buy everything.â
Pardon? What did you say?
Even Yutra, who was eager to deal with all sorts of nobles, couldnât keep her composure this time.
She opened her mouth wide.
âWeâve got her correct size, so we can fix it accordingly. Letâs buy all the clothes we chose today.â
Yutra hastily closed her mouth at the smooth talk.
âJackpot!â
A golden brass bell ringed in front of her.
She bowed her head, trying to calm her rising smile.
âUnderstood, sir.â

FLâs POV
âIt looks expensive, but youâre going to buy it all? Are you serious?â
I looked at the Duke of Paeraton in bewilderment.
Even if I change my clothes twice a day, I donât think I can wear them all and the season will change!
âThere are conditions instead.â
The Duke looked at the hanging clothes and looked at me, specifically looking at my hands.
âTighten the sleeves to the wrist or make them short for all the dresses.â
âPardon?â
âPull the sleeves of my daughterâs clothes so that it doesnât reach the palmâ
ââŚyes, I see.â
The designerâs sister answered, but she looked like she didnât know why he was making such a request.
But I knew.
âIs that all youâve wiped? They have to shine!â
Kkkkkk, isnât your throat stuffy?
Donât you feel frustrated?
Dear reader, what you need now is a cool Cider that will clear the stuffiness!
