"I was going to ask you about that, and thank you. I'll bring all your items to the mansion sometime tomorrow morning. This is a gift for you, Ms. Aria Roscent."

The employee took a case from his sleeve. It contained a sapphire necklace. Judging by the size of it, it was likely to cost quite a bit. Aria immediately understood his intention and accepted his insidious thought.

"Jessie, will you hang it around my neck?"

"Yes, miss."

It was probably a necklace unsuitable for her young age, but when she put it on, strangely, it melded naturally with her beauty, as if the necklace had met its master.

The eyes of the man who had given her the necklace shone. He was thinking the girl would be making her social debut in the future, and that she would be a trendsetter. There would be nothing wrong if he favored her somewhat.

"Not bad. Thank you."

Aria smiled sweetly. The store had a colorful interior, but it brightened suddenly with Aria's flowery smile. The staffer couldn't hide his red ears while giving her a slight nod.

"I'd ask you favor us in the future as well."

The necklace around Aria's neck returned to the man's hand by Jessie's hand. That meant that it should be sent with everything else in the morning.

She couldn't afford to go around with luxurious items yet. In any case, that man hadn't given her the necklace so that Aria would wear it around immediately. It had been a gift to build a strong relationship.

"Oh, are you the owner here?"

"Yes, miss."

"I'll stop by often."

"Thank you."

The one whom she had thought to be an employee was in fact the owner. Seeing that he was even tending to a customer by himself, he seemed to run his store with a lot of affection. The store also needed thorough management, as it was the largest and most luxurious jewelry shop in the capital.

It was an unexpected harvest. There was nothing wrong with being close to a boutique or a jewelry shop. She would be the first to hear from him when something precious came in, and he might let her know what the latest fashion would be.

She would accept the help because not all of her memories were detailed. Of course, the help wouldn't be tremendous since she had been able to make a name for herself in the future and lived as part of high society.

While she waited for one of her stupid knights to find a carriage, she had a brief cup of tea. But the stupid knight hadn't come back even after the tea had been brewed.

Aria, who had already exchanged the tea twice after it had gotten cold, was so impatient that she ordered the other knight to find the whereabouts of the first one.

Jessie, who realized that Aria did not feel well from experience even if she did not express it, rushed out of the room while saying that she would bring her a new refreshment.

Toward her extremely agile retreating figure, Aria added, "You don't have to come back until you're ready."

'You are sharp.'

Aria didn't mean to make any trouble with her statement, but she didn't want to see Jessie fretting and squirming. In addition, Aria couldn't be herself, who was in a bad mood due to a number of reasons, with others around. While waiting for Jessie, there was nothing to do, so she opened the window and opened the curtain located in the center of the room.
