So, as a guide he puts a lot of effort into, all I have to do is to disappear.

Until the little boy dies.

“Would you like a drink?”

Inside the glass bottle Lucy held out was a homemade ade that looked refreshing just by looking at it. It is not an exaggeration to say that I was covered in chocolate, and it was exactly what I needed after eating a parfait.

“Thank you.”

After taking a few sips after opening the bottle cap myself and handing it over, I took advantage of the car turning left to enter the alley and naturally dropped the bottle.

The contents inside spilled onto the luxurious leather seat and my dress.

I was startled and tried to wipe the sheets with the handkerchief provided on the side.

“I’m sorry, I spilled everything……. What should I do?”

Lucy stopped me with a small sigh.

“It’s all right. I’ll do it. Mr. Bayern, I think we should stop the car.”

Anton directed the car to pull over to the shoulder, and the driver looked around to the back seat and said,

“Anyway, a little further from here is the shopping street. Go take a look around slowly with the child. I will put it all away.”

Everyone seemed to be distracted by the little commotion I had caused.

I’m really sorry for doing bad things to people who live so diligently. But I’m sorry, but I’m not the kind of person who clings to kindness.

I hid the money I had saved up in preparation for an emergency.

As soon as I arranged my clothes, Anton opened the back door, so I quickly got out.

“Oh no, it’s all over your clothes. Let’s stop by the dressing room first.”

“No. It doesn’t show much anyway, and if you really need to, just buy something cheap…… ”

“Then you will catch a cold.”

Viscount Anton Bayern smiled and scolded me as I was fiddling with a thick green dress lined with fur.

He seemed to like children quite a bit. We usually get along well as if he was not there as an attendant to the Duke. But sometimes when we were left alone, his mouth softened and he often told jokes.

And to be honest, he was as handsome as Gilbert. The Duke’s remark that there were many beauties like Gilbert in the capital was not an exaggeration.

Messing with a beautiful person really is a heavy burden on one’s conscience.

Upon entering the dressing room with Duke Janus’ entourage, I was immediately given a comfortable sofa, table, small snacks, and a catalog.

Turning my eyes to the given snacks, dangling my feet off the floor because of the overly soft sofa, my hands roughly picked out the dress for young ladies.

I wanted to order for a 10-year-old, but while the Duke was dragging me around, I realized that my body was more of a 7-year-old’s size. So I gulped and asked for a 7-year-old’s size.

“Is that all you need? Is there anything else you would like to see?”

“Yes, they are all pretty, but I need them urgently, so that’s fine.”

“There’s a new edition for the year-end party. Is that okay?”

“Wow. It’s really pretty. I’ll tell the Duke and make sure to stop by next time. Thank you, pretty sister.”

“No, thank you for being so nice. Then, I will bring only what you ordered. Please wait a minute.”

“Yes. Thank you.”

When I put my hands together and answered, people around me said that I was very good at talking.

All the staff were overly friendly like those in the amusement park, probably because it is a place that deals with young children.

I rolled my eyes and pretended to be worried, then whispered in a small voice to the staff sister waiting next to me.

“Excuse me, may I know where the powder room is here?”

Talking about the powder room was a euphemism for wanting to go to the bathroom.

It was mainly used by grown-up noble ladies, but was often used by young ladies trying to pretend to be mature.

The cute sister widened her eyes, and she responded with a smile.

“Please, this way, Miss.”

Ugh, I don’t know why everyone I run into is so kind.

I’m sure she’ll be questioned by the Duke later for letting me escape……. Sister, I’m sorry.

“Oh, Viscount! A Lady needs time alone.”

Viscount Anton Bayern, who was about to follow, was stopped by another staff member. They were considerate of me because I was shy about going to the bathroom.

Recognizing the staff’s euphemism, Anton blushed in embarrassment and sat down again.

‘I’m really sorry, Uncle Anton, I’m really sorry.’

As soon as I entered the bathroom, I looked for ventilation. Fortunately, there was one window large enough for me to squeeze through.

I looked outside to see where it was connected, and I saw the back of Nocturne Park, where the black conifers were thick.

I was able to get out easily by stepping on the shelf installed in the bathroom.

Considering that I would get hurt a little, I closed my eyes and jumped down, but for some reason the floor was soft.

‘Eh?’

When I slowly opened my eyes, I was crushing a boy with my butt.
