'What the hell are you up to?'

She thought about it, but she couldn't find the answer so she stayed up all night and finally decided to use the hourglass, but she could find the answer the next morning.

"I decided to follow the choice of the princess."

"Are you serious...?"

Mielle, who had a bright face for the first time in a long time; her eyes glittered all of a sudden.

'The choice of the princess? What choice did she make?'

The Countess also stared at the Count, waiting for an explanation, not knowing the details. But the Count seemed to have no intention of explaining it further, and only ate quietly.

Aria, unable to resist her curiosity, asked, "... what choice?"

"You'll find out soon." On behalf of the Count, Mielle answered triumphantly.

The mischievous way of speaking gave Aria strength on her hands below the table. Mielle was much better in the past when she had pretended to be naive. Aria couldn't be sarcastic as she openly expressed her real intention.

'As expected, Mielle knew it.'

Since she was a close friend of the princess, she might have known what she was going to do before the Count. Mielle's sharp reply made Aria feel completely displeased, as she said Aria would know when everyone knew. Aria stared at Cain for an answer, but he also said, "I respect my father's choice."

'Yes, you don't have to explain to the stupid Countess and her daughter. What a shame!'

Aria held Cain's arm as he left the dining room, vowing and pledging not to let the Count and Cain sit still when the day came when she would judge the princess and Mielle.

"What the hell is going on, brother?"

She was going to use the hourglass if she could. Of course, she thought her pathetic expression would work more on Cain, so when she first drew it, he looked very awkward.

"It's still a little bit..."

"Every family except me and my mother knows! Don't tell me... my mother and I are not family?"

When asked, Cain said, "That can't be! It's just to prevent the possibility of information leaking out."

'In fact, you think we're not a family. Therefore, you despise your stepmother and blush at your stepsister's touch.'

As Aria shed tears with her increasingly somber face, Cain, who eventually succumbed, looked around, made sure no one was there and told the truth.

"I think the princess Isis is going to marry a foreign king."

At his words, she dropped the box of the hourglass in her hand.

Aria came back to her room and covered her sick head. She thought she would have joined hands with another country, but she didn't think that she would marry a king of another country!

'... Will Mr. Asher be all right?'

It was the first thought if Asher would be all right. Asher was first, rather than thinking that it was difficult to get revenge. Because she couldn't meet him easily, she tried to calm her anxiety by ruining an unused embroidered handkerchief.
