Chapitre 12: CHAPTER 12
'Huh? I think Lizzy is in a good mood.'
Lizzy pressed her lips together and tried to hold back her smile. Her eyes are on the style book. It's seemed that she's obviously excited about her new dress.
'She says she's fine, but she's just happy to get a new dress. She can't even ask them to buy it. Ugh, poor thing.'
I returned to my room with a light heart, hoping that I had earned Lizzy's favor.
* * *
A fortnight after the wedding, the Duchess began to entrust me with her work. When I went to the Duchess's Office, I was greeted by none other than Lizzy.
"Welcome, Miss Edith!"
She's got a bright smile on her face, as always.
"Good morning, Miss Lizzy! I said I'd be here early, but you're come first?"
I smiled and responded to her greeting. I wasn't surprised when Lizzy suddenly popped out of the Duchess's office, as I had already known the contents of the original, but it wasn't the original Edith.
"𝘏𝘰𝘸 𝘤𝘢𝘯 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘦𝘯𝘵𝘳𝘶𝘴𝘵 𝘢 𝘧𝘢𝘮𝘪𝘭𝘺 𝘥𝘰𝘤𝘶𝘮𝘦𝘯𝘵 𝘵𝘰 𝘴𝘰𝘮𝘦𝘰𝘯𝘦 𝘸𝘩𝘰 𝘪𝘴 𝘯𝘰𝘵 𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘯 𝘢 𝘧𝘢𝘮𝘪𝘭𝘺 𝘮𝘦𝘮𝘣𝘦𝘳 𝘰𝘧 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘴 𝘩𝘰𝘶𝘴𝘦? 𝘈 𝘱𝘦𝘳𝘴𝘰𝘯 𝘪𝘴 𝘯𝘰𝘵 𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘯 𝘢 𝘯𝘰𝘣𝘭𝘦 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘴𝘩𝘦 𝘩𝘢𝘴𝘯'𝘵 𝘭𝘦𝘢𝘳𝘯𝘦𝘥 𝘢𝘯𝘺𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘱𝘳𝘰𝘱𝘦𝘳𝘭𝘺. . . . . ."
It was a valid question, but since Lizzy was already living like a daughter of this house, the Duchess was quite offended by Edith's complaint. So I'll deal with it with a smile.
"I'm probably going to be clumsy. So Miss Lizzy, please teach me a lot."
"I'm just running an errand for the Duchess."
"Mother wouldn't never let just anyone stay by her side. From now on, let's get along well and have fun."
Lizzy led me to where I should sit and work, while the Duchess watched us with a smile on her face. She seemed happy to see that between east-West (?) were getting along. My desk was set up with ink and pens, a document tray, and a stack of papers.
'Even in this world, I feel like I work for a company. . . . . why do Koreans people make them work there and even use it at this romance novel'
I sighed as I remembered my first day at work. but one of the pieces of life wisdom I gained in my previous life is that it never hurts to learn something.
'It's most likely that you'll run away at night, but you never know. Killian might turn round and take me down to the manor.'
If that happens, you might be able to use what you've learned now usefully.
"Edith."
"Yes, mother!"
"The stack paper I gave you wouldn't have been organized at all. Maybe I'm messed up. You can organize it according to the date."
"Is it okay to simply organize by date? Is it okay if I don't categorize by client or by transaction item?"
"I'd be more grateful if you categorized it that way."
"Yes!"
It was an embarrassingly simple thing that I was nervous about. I pulled out a small stack of papers and started going through them one by one.
"This is nothing! It's a problem because there's a lot of volume, but the work isn't difficult
Sometimes, there were documents written in bad handwriting, so it took time to 'decompose', but I organized the documents relatively easily.
"Edit is also smart, too. It's neat."
I even got a compliment from the Duchess, who checked out some of the papers I had organized.
'Great! This is how the original is changing!'
I smiled shyly, then made eye contact with Lizzy and laughed again. She smiled, too. As I was working like that, the morning just passed. Even if I work, it only takes about 2 or 3 hours, so it was a bit disappointing for a Korean office worker who was trained to work overtime.
"You did a great job. Please take care of me tomorrow as well."
I got permission from the duchess to leave work and came out of the office, and somehow I felt good and hummed, and Lizzy called me from behind.
"Em, Miss Edith."
"Yes!"
"Hmm... If you're not busy, would you like to come for tea time this afternoon."
A shy flush came to Rise's cheeks.
"If you're busy, I can't help it...."
"I'll go! Thank you for inviting me."
I held her hands tightly and smiled as if I was really happy. With an honest heart, I didn't want to get involved with the main characters, but if I refused this, I could be driven to be a villain, saying that it hurt Lizzy heart.
"What time and where should we go?"
"We are having tea at 3:30 in the afternoon. Let's have a drink on the balcony of the Great Hall today."
'The expression 'we are' was strangely annoying to my ears. Lizzy may have used it unconsciously, but it felt like drawing a line between them and me.'
Besides, being on the balcony of the great balcony where I saw them the other day, I felt a little uncomfortable. However, how dare i go against the main character's words when it comes to the subject of being an extra who needs to get out of the villain role.
"The weather is nice today, so the middle of the house will be more beautiful. Then can I go there by 3:30?"
"Yes. I'll see you later."
I turned around, waving to Lizzy with a bright face until the end. The first thing I thought of was the original story.
'Did there be an episode of the tea time invitation in the original?'
I had so many tea times at this romance novel that I couldn't remember exactly which part it was.
'Well, you'll know when you go.'
You can't avoid all of the original episodes. You just need not overthink or be sensitive about it , as long as you didn't commit the same evils that the original Edith did. But then something surprising happened.
"Follow me."
"Killian?"
A little after 3 p.m., Killian came to my room and asked me to follow him. It seemed like it was the first time I had spoken to Killian since the wedding.
"What's going on? i have an appointment with Miss Lizzy in a few minutes. . . . ."
"That's where we're going."
"Ah. . . . ."
I'm sure it was Lizzy sent you here.
I could see Lizzy pushing Killian's back as he whined about why he had to escort her. Maybe today's tea time invitation was planned to somehow make things better between me and Killian.
'Lizzy is having a hard time because of me and Killian.'
I put on a light shawl and followed Killian. He walked in front of me, and I knew he would never look back at me, so I felt comfortable appreciating his back.
'Kya, look at your shoulder. are you a former swimmer? ugh, that waist. . . . .would you like it if i give you a back hug?'
But neither his broad shoulders nor his narrow waist were comparable to his elastically raised hips and solid thighs.
'It's the first time I've ever been attracted to a man's body. It's awesome. . . . .'
If a man like him were my husband, I'd be sure that a normal woman would be paranoid.
'But don't worry. I'll just do it with my eyes.'
It's okay for Lizzy to have it. It's enough for me just looking at it with my eyes. After walking for a long time in such a happy mood, and before i knew it, we were almost at the entrance of the great hall. Then, Killian suddenly turned around. I happened to be admiring his ass, so when he turned around, my gaze landed on his embarrassing spot.
"Oh, Mom!"
I was looking for my mother without realizing it and raised my surprised gaze. As expected, Killian looked down at me with a disapproving face.
"I warn you in advance."
Oh my gosh, give me a warning.
"Lizzy is like my family. She is a much more precious person to me than you. So, . . . . . Be careful what you say in front of Lizzy."
Oh, was that a warning. But when I listened to it, my back felt a little pulled. What did I do? when I read the original, I thought it was cider that Killian was snapping at Edith, but since I'm in Edith's position and listen to it, I feel bad even though I know everything.
"Wow. . . . .You hurt me in this way?"
A female comedian said. it hurts someone who jokes rudely. Say it correctly, but our obsessive sub-male lead won't let this sarcasm get to him.
"What could possibly hurt you? didn't you come prepared?"
"I'm a human, too."
"Human? Not a snake?"
"That's very polite of you, Killian. May I offer it to Miss Lizzy in the manner of a duke's son?"
Only then did Killian's mouth shut up. I was heartbroken even though I promised myself not to expect anything from this man. So, how difficult was it to the original Edith who loved Killian.
"It sounds like you wanted to ruin my mood and make me a worse woman, but that's too bad because I'm not a woman who is easily swayed."
"What. . . . . .?"
"Of course, the fact that I was hurt is another matter."
without hearing his answer, I passed Killian's side and walked towards the balcony of the Great Hall. I should be smiling, but the corners of my mouth are twitching. Knowing nothing, Lizzy spotted me, smiled broadly, and waved.
"Miss Edith! it's here!"
Oh, it's dazzling! The female lead is still a female lead.
Lizzy sunshine smile made my feeling depressed until just know disappeared as if sterilized. Lizzy Sinclair, you are a beautiful and sinful demonic woman!
"Miss Lizzy! thanks for inviting me to this tea time."
"Well, thank you for coming, Miss Edith."
"We are same age, and we're always together. . . . .Why don't you call me by my name now? "
"Uh? Really ? Can I do that?"
"Of course!"
Like waking birds, Lizzy and I sat down chattering useless stories.
