“Did you really have to choose that kind of color—after much consideration?”

Vivian didn’t say anything in response. Her calm black hair was already fixed inside of a hair net that was tied up neatly.

She had been considering the common color—brown—but then, she settled with black since Alexia was the one who demanded for a color that had no relation to red at all.

“The color that you’ve chosen just made your dull face look even duller.”

Fortunately, Alexia didn’t talk more about her hair after that. It seemed like she didn’t find Vivian’s current hair color to be that unpleasant.

The moment when Vivian, the maids and the carriage, which had been carrying the goods, eventually arrived at the event’s location, Alexia’s shoulders appeared to be stiffening up—unlike herself who had rarely gotten nervous.

Vivian was holding her luggage before she stood behind her. Then, Alexia’s piercing hand immediately clutched on her shoulder.

“If you happen to see that person, you have to inform me quickly. Got it?”

“Yes, My Lady.”

That being said, Vivian’s eyes had already scanned through their surroundings.


The suspicions that arose were the questions like, what if the Grand Duke’s maids were nearby or even something like, what if the Grand Duke himself was actually around and that had made her unable to let down her guard even for a single second.

It wasn’t clear if it was fortunate or not, but the Grand Duke didn’t show up in front of Vivian nor Alexia herself. People were paying close attention towards Alexia’s appearance, though their interest was soon lost due to the fact that the Grand Duke wasn’t turning up even when his fiancée had already arrived.

Unlike the others, Vivian and Alexia were the only ones who heaved a sigh of relief. Although Alexia appeared to be daring, she still didn’t really want to encounter the Grand Duke, whom she was just unfamiliar with.

Did he lie about his participation? In the end, the day gradually passed without any incidents of bumping into the Grand Duke and eventually, Vivian had managed to leave Alexia’s side.

As soon as she entered the room that was set up for the maids, which had been apart from the rooms that were finely prepared for each of the nobles who attended, Amanda immediately stretched herself out in bed.

“Ugh, what is this? I thought that I could relax over here, but I still had to follow the Young Lady all day long. I even feel like my feet have swollen terribly.”

“Me too. I’m just exhausted.”

Vivian then began to lightly beat her legs that had been strained all this while.

He definitely said that he would be coming, so why can’t I see him at all? She had given a slight glance towards all those nobles who attended, yet still, she couldn’t find Knox anywhere.

“That’s right! I heard earlier that the maids could eat and enjoy their masters’ leftovers once they have fallen asleep. Are you going to join as well?”


“Huh? Didn’t you just say that you’re so tired?”

As she felt somewhat frustrated, Vivian straight away shot a look at her, but Amanda was just smiling playfully.

“That was that and this is this. It’s just fun, you know. Besides, I also wonder about what the other maids are up to. If we were to go to such places, we could probably hear a lot more rumors.”

Amanda, who was laying on her bed, eventually got up before sitting on the edge of Vivian’s bed.

“I’m pretty sure it’ll be fun since you can taste all the food that the nobles usually eat! So, let’s go, yeah?”

“Okay, let’s go. But you do know that I can’t drink, right?”

“Fine. Then, let’s just eat all the delicacies that are there!”

As Vivian accepted her invitation since she could no longer refuse her, Amanda’s face was suddenly glowing with such innocent light.

Right at the dead of the night when everyone was already asleep, Amanda and Vivian began heading to the kitchen.

At a place where the nobles had never thought of stepping in with their dainty feet was a place where the maids were absolutely familiar with. During this darkest time of the night, that was the only place that shone ever so brightly.
