Chapter 49

Suddenly, the splendid imperial palace ball entered the second half.
After doing business with the 5th Princess, I didn’t have much to do, so I drank sweet cocktails to pass the time.

‘Dancing with Isidor all the time is a bit awkward.’

Aside from getting too much attention every time I danced with him, it was a social norm to not dance with the same partner more than three times.
So, after dancing with the gentlemen who escorted them, the young ladies were asked by other men to dance with them.
At this time, the unpopular young ladies had no choice but to stand alone against the wall, so that’s where the word wallflower came from.

‘Although I’m more like the infamous Venus flytrap than a wallflower.’

For reference, in the past, Philap never even asked Deborah to dance with him, let alone escort her.
Even though Deborah abandoned her pride and blatantly hung around him.

‘I have to say that her perseverance is great.’

Even Deborah, who self-destructed while harassing Mia because of the cruel Philap, is amazing in some ways.

‘But surprisingly, this person is also kind.’

Some young ladies blatantly glanced at Isidor as if they want to receive a dance request, but he pretended not to see it.
He was just standing next to me, an outsider, with arms crossed.

Thanks to Isidor, I’m comfortable because I can avoid the awkwardness of standing alone, but I don’t know why he is being so nosy only towards me.

‘It’s suspicious.’

I looked up at Isidor in a suspicious mood, and when our eyes met, I hurriedly looked elsewhere.

“Why do you keep avoiding my eyes? Well, my face is a bit dazzling indeed.”

I was so annoyed that I couldn’t refute it.

“Huh? When you look serious like that, it makes me want to tease you.”

Suddenly, he leaned forward and slightly closed his eyes.
From his slender cheeks to his deep dimples, he was really pretty.

‘It was a good li–, no, I can’t keep getting bewitched like this. Get a hold of yourself.’

This is how a pushover gets caught, and all the precious jewels I have collected until now may get stolen.

“Frankly, this kind of joke is not funny.”

I bit the inside of my mouth and spoke bluntly.

“You’re cruel. Others said it was funny.”

It’s not a lame joke, it’s that your face is funny.
No matter what you say, even if it is dad jokes, everyone will hold their stomachs and laugh.

I swallowed those thoughts and looked around the ballroom.

‘Huh?’

Then, I saw an unexpected sight and opened my mouth slightly.

Mia Vinoche was dancing with a man other than Philap.
Philap has a strong possessive desire, so I thought he would always stay by Mia’s side.

‘Who is it?’
