Philip was in a bad mood.

In the middle of the night, someone saw him go to the basement.

No, maybe there really was a rat bastard—.

‘If Sir Asher finds out about this, he’ll—’

If he confesses, he’ll only endanger his own life.

Because he’s just a person who can’t get his job done.

He had to find out who the rat was.

‘I couldn’t hear the monster’s answer because of the rat.’

Asher, who served Yurtha, was not a person who gave many opportunities, perhaps because he resembled his master’s personality.

If it goes over once, it won’t go over twice.

It was when Philip’s nerves were in full swing.

“Philip!”

He heard a sweet voice that melted his sharp nerves.

“M, Miss Rosie!”

Suddenly, the two were calling each other’s names.

Rosie pretended to be friendly and called his name before, though, in fact, she was the only one who said only Philip.

“M, Miss Rosie, what brings you here—?”

Strangely, just looking at Rosie makes him stutter.

Philip clicked his tongue inwardly at his stupid attitude.

But Rosie just smiled as if she had no idea.

The half-folded smile made Philip’s heart pound.

‘Good—’

“I was just walking by when I saw Philip. You don’t like it?”

“W, what do you mean! I’m happy to meet you, Rosie!”

A loud voice came out of nervousness.

After spitting it out, shame rushed in and his face turned red, and Rosie chuckled as if she was having fun with that reaction.

‘Pretty—’

Philip stared blankly at Rosie’s smile.

“Oh! Philip, what are you doing this afternoon?”

“This afternoon?”

“It’s nothing special, but the chef said he baked bread today, so Philip—”

“I want to eat it, too!”

Rosie opens her eyes wide as if she was surprised when he shouted again, unable to hide his excitement.

Then she gave Philip his favorite soft smile.

“Then can I take the bread to Philip’s room later?”

“M, my room—”

“Tell me if you feel uncomfortable.”

“I don’t feel uncomfortable. I like it.”

Why does he keep talking like an idiot?

Philip screamed inwardly at his stupid attitude.

Fortunately, good Rosie laughed as if she was having fun. He was noticeably relieved that she didn’t hate it.

“Then I’ll go to Philip’s room later.”

When Rosie left, Philip could finally breathe out.

He was so happy that he wanted to shout.
