The plain and unnoticed me is no more

Sin and Taki quickly hid behind me, and Sin stared at Evan with a momentum that was about to hit him, and stepped forward without cowardice to a larger knight apprentice with a slightly higher gaze than herself.

The instant air flowed, and I was scared to think of the tension and anxiety when I was acquitted at that party, and I stopped it before Sin got hot.

"Stop it! Sin, no. If you wave violence at the nobles, even if this isn't bad, they'll punish you without asking questions. I'm fine, just calm down."

"Lana was hiding behind me in silence. You were so scared and scared, if we had come a little earlier, we wouldn't have made you feel this way...!

Taki's voice was as gentle as usual, but his expression was like a warrior looking at the enemy in front of him, and he was seriously confronting Evan to protect me.

"Taki, you need to calm down and stop Singh. I'm afraid of angry men... please don't be angry."

Sin, who heard my voice, tempered his anger and told Evan to leave the kitchen.

"I don't know what you were trying to do to our owner, but this is a sacred place to cook. Get out of here now."

After seeing my face, Evan looked terribly surprised and left the kitchen at Sin's behest. And now he talked to me from behind the counter, seeping a color of regret on his face.

"I'm really sorry. Lana looked like the woman I knew, and maybe she was herself... and I couldn't stand or see her face. But if you think about it, she's not supposed to be here, and she's not a cook. I want you to forgive me for your sudden disrespectful behavior and lack of calm. I didn't mean to scare you. I'm really sorry I did this."

Evan lowered his head deeply and offered a sincere apology to the person he thought was a civilian.

How would you react if you knew I was Elaine? You went with your uncle to apologize to us, but that wasn't an apology to me, was it to the Duke of Norris?

I just wanted to take this opportunity to tell you not to come anymore. Sin and Taki are surprised. It's not easy for a nobleman to lower his head to a civilian daughter.

"Master Findley, there are three other people in the world who are very similar to me. No matter how similar I am, I am not the woman you know. If you've been talking to me over and over again, would you please stop talking to me?"

"No! No, of course I thought you were Lana from the inn. Please don't get me wrong. Actually, I have something to apologize for, and I'm looking for him. When I first saw you, the atmosphere was different, but the face was very similar, and I suspected her because of the color of her hair, but the way she spoke, her personality and her preference for clothing were completely different. You were definitely different from her."

Evan desperately explains, but what do you have to apologize to me for? Are you going to say that this was an unjust crime? That's fine, but I don't think the wounds on my heart will go away forever if I'm apologized.

"What did you do to him? Aren't you trying to dictate another woman in this place by saying that you have something to apologize for until you find her?

"Sin! Don't make Findley angry with your mouth like that. Don't underestimate the nobility!

Singh continued to speak without listening to my restraint as to whether his anger would subside.

"Isn't it? The bouquet there is a gift for the owner, right?

The white bouquet placed on the counter is a genuine gift made by someone who is obviously familiar with flowers, rather than a carefree gesture of picking flowers in the garden. A rare variety of white roses, white petal jasmine on a pink buds and cashmere sprinkles, complete like a wedding bouquet.

"That's... something I made you do with gratitude. Lana's cooking has restored a weak friend. Okay, he's healed, and I'm not coming here anymore. I don't know if you were worried about Lana without realizing it, but apparently I was disliked before you knew it....."

If you think it's the kind of dialogue I heard somewhere, I thought the same thing when you ignored me.

However, there is a decisive difference between you and me.

I really didn't remember doing anything, and you hated me and suddenly ignored me. After all, I didn't know why.

You may not have done anything to Lana at the inn, but you did violence and mental suffering to me, didn't you?

"You've... been violent with a powerless woman."

"I apologize for grabbing my wrist hard. I didn't think it would be that violent."

"... that's not it."

"So, when are you talking?

You didn't tell me anything back then, but I'll tell you why I refuse you.
