Killian shook his head as if he had nothing more to hear from Julietta. "Then dress up as anything other than Princess Kiellini."

Julietta was jabbed by Killian's words and protested, "A disguise?"

"It may sound absurd to a noble princess, but what will you do? It is the only way to prevent Francis from approaching you. And if it's not Francis, more and more people are now paying attention to the dressing shop, and it will be a problem seeing Princess Kiellini walking in and out of the dressing shop every day."

When Killian said that, Julietta's mouth closed like a person who could not open her heart to him.

Julietta shook her head as she thought of her old wig. The moment she wore the wig, the Prince might recognize her right away. She couldn't take that risk, so she was thinking she would wear a black wig.

Killian glanced at her as she was thinking and made sure. "If you bring your dog with you in disguise, I will let you raise it. Or you can raise it in the dressing shop. I've become very fond of this puppy, so I will come and go and see it."

When he heard that Killian was so fond of it, Ian was dumbfounded. When the puppy began to visibly dislike the Prince after being judged a mixed breed yesterday, he remembered that the Prince threatened to throw it away.

Ian had held the puppy inside the carriage on this hot summer day, since the Prince started on him.

"Your Highness, thank you very much. If Sir Albert wants to see the puppy, please tell him to visit the dressing shop at any time." Julietta looked down gladly at the puppy, which was still in a sound sleep, not knowing that its owner had changed. The light breathing sound warmed her heart.

After hearing the assessment on himself yesterday, Manny was upset and stayed up all night.

He was a dimensional manager inside, but his body was a newborn puppy. He couldn't lift his eyelids because he did not get a good night's sleep at a time when he had to eat well and sleep well. So as soon as he got into the carriage in the arms of Ian, he fell asleep.

Manny had been sleeping well for some time slowly woke up from his sleep, feeling the hot stare. As he came to his senses, he could see the glittering green eyes staring down.

"Yap? Yap yap yap yap!"

Manny cried out to see the cause of his punishment, Julietta, in his joy.

"Why is it whining when it sees the princess? It doesn't like her, does it?" Killian said teasingly.

Julietta pouted. "It is still a little puppy. It seems to be surprised by a stranger is looking down at it."

Julietta gently stroked the dog's round head to calm him down. He was both pleasant and resentful, but he remembered her patting his hair when he had turned into a puppy in the past, and the whining gradually subsided.

The appearance of the puppy whose eyes closed pleasantly, savoring Julietta's hand, was unpleasant to the eye of Killian and he suddenly raised Manny by the neck.

"Are you a dog with no regard for loyalty to your master, or for the grace of your life?"

When Killian lifted the puppy to his eyes and shook it, Manny turned his head away clearly.

Julietta was embarrassed by Killian's sudden action and hurried to rescue the puppy from his hand. "What the hell are you doing to this little puppy? Oh, my God, it was so surprised."

When she hugged it tightly and patted it softly, the puppy exaggerated his pain and burst into small tears.

Killian quietly stared at Julietta muttering something and patting it affectionately and soothingly, and the puppy who had its head buried in her arms and was rubbing her repeatedly. He stepped in, as if to break their time together. "Don't you need to give it a name?"

Julietta agonized for a moment, gently stroking the lovingly whining puppy. 'If I had known the name of the puppy I had met on the street in the past… I'd like to give it that name. Oh, it's similar to the dog that sent me here.'

Julietta decided after a moment's thought. 'Yes, I'm neutralizing my resentment by giving the name of an enemy to this lovely dog. And in fact, I swore every time something happened, but I came here and met a lot of good people. It would have been better if it hadn't been for a damned curse. I'm much happier now than when I was lonely.'

Julietta gently patted the puppy's back with fluffy little hair and said, "I'd like the name, Manny. Manny, Manny, it's easy to call and understand."

The real Manny wriggled at the name. He was worried that he would get a really poor name or a pinky name that ignored his tastes, but it was so touching to get his name back. Manny was happy and gave a big congratulatory whimper.

At the sight, Julietta looked back at Killian. "Your Highness, did you bring any food for Manny?"

Julietta didn't say a word to him when it was time for him to eat, but she took care of the dog's meal immediately, so Killian was unpleasant. But he couldn't say that, as she didn't prepare for its meal. If he said so, he didn't know what he would hear.

"Ian, bring what you prepared earlier."

At Killian's command, Ian disappeared to fetch the puppy food he had put in the kitchen earlier.

"Your Highness, look at this. It's so lovely. Look at its chewing mouth. Oh, it's pretty." Julietta looked down lovingly at Manny, who was chewing reflexively at the sound of 'food.'

Julietta, who had backed away with glaring eyes when he tried to get close to her, sat down next to him naturally, and said, "Look at the puppy I am holding."

Killian said, looking down at the puppy almost covered by her bosom. "Yes, it's so beautiful. There's no place that's not pretty."

"You also think so, don't you? It's so lovely."

Killian sat obliquely on the sofa under the pretext of looking at the puppy, with his left arm on the armrest, and looked at Julietta to his heart's content. The puppy he had accidentally found on the street made him feel better as it seemed to have broken her solid wall half down.

Killian slowly reviewed his plans. One mistake was enough. He would slowly approach her and win her heart like this.

When Ian brought the puppy's baby food, Killian took Manny from Julietta's arms.

"Oh, my, Your Highness. You're too violent. It's still a baby. Take it easy."

"This guy's bluffing. It stood on all fours at mealtime and ate well."

Killian's papers on the table were cleared to one side, a high-quality tablecloth was laid down, and a silver bowl for Manny's meal was placed on it.

Killian put Manny he was holding down on the table. Manny sniffed, tossed his head, and went straight to the bowl and began to eat.

'Ah, where is my pride? I am too old to count my mental age, but my body is only a newborn baby's, so it moves according to its instincts.'

He cried sadly, but his mouth didn't stop. When Manny even licked the bowl, Julietta lifted it up with a soft touch and wiped around its eyes and mouth. "Well, it was so delicious that you even cried. My, was it so delicious to you?"

When Julietta turned around to say something, Killian raised his hand before she could speak.

"Ian, did you bring the recipe that the doctor gave you yesterday?"

"Yes, Your Highness. I've got another copy."

"Give it to the princess."

Julietta gently dropped Manny after she wiped around his mouth. Watching Manny trying to adjust himself to a strange place, Julietta wondered whether she should take him to the mansion or not, because she was not sure if she could take him without permission.

They would take good care of him if she left him to Amelie and Sophie, but she didn't want to be apart from him for even a day.

Julietta did not return to her studio as she usually did, but sat next to him playing with Manny, agonizing over something. Killian asked, "Do you have any concerns?"

From the first day, he had been talking down to her, but Julietta replied without feeling it, "I don't know if I can take him to the mansion without permission."

If she were an ordinary lady, she would not have thought about it at all, but Julietta did not seem to find it strange to be seriously concerned.
