The Tamed Heiress - Chapter 70

As soon as she said it, her stomach immediately refuted. Everyone there heard this sound, and everyone bowed their heads to hold back their laughter.

“Okay, you must be hungry. I’ll hurry up and prepare it for you.”

Lily quickly let Dana into the room, and the maids followed her.

Dana was placed in front of the dressing table, and the two maids prepared her as they had promised.

Cosmetic water was sprayed on her dry skin, and her bushy hair turned shiny in a few minutes.

Dana, who was dazed by them, came back to her senses and opened her mouth.

“The Grand Duke ordered this?”

Lily, who was choosing clothes next to her, carefully replied, looking at Dana’s expression.

“Yes, yesterday afternoon, the butler gathered the maids and told me to raise my hand if I want to be a maid dedicated to you…”

Lily made eye contact with Wendy, the maid who was brushing from behind, blurring the end of her speech.

In fact, except for a very small number of people, most servants of the castle knew her as “Dana Deniz”.

It was a normal and plausible story that the lady whom the Grand Duke accidentally saved and cared for before was the heiress of the merchant group.

Dana replied bitterly, noticing their silent munication.

“Sorry, if you didn’t want to e here, now…”

Lily and Wendy both jumped and waved their hands.

“No, it’s not! The petition was fierce. Everyone wanted to do it.”

“That’s right. I didn’t expect even Terra to raise her hand.”

“Who’s Terra?”

“Oh, right. That’s what I mean…”

Wendy covered her mouth with her index finger to shush her, but Lily said the truth without seeing it.

“I heard there was a scuffle with the lady in the past. She’s been working here for a long time…”

“Ohh”

Dana nodded as if she remembered only then. Come to think of it, she was there.

If only the maid had told them that she knew Dana when she was being kicked out of the side palace at that time, all that wouldn’t have happened.

From that, it was clear that she didn’t like Dana, so why did she volunteer to be a dedicated maid?

“You’re all done now, I think you can go to the dining hall.”

“You’re so beautiful. I thought you were pretty even when I saw you from afar.”

Dana looked in the mirror shy at Wendy’s words. Nothing much changed about the features themselves, but the atmosphere was pletely different just by touching it a little.

And thinking of the meaning of the deployment of a dedicated maid, a corner of her heart trembled secretly.

Now in this castle, she seemed to have been accepted as a family member, not a guest. It was okay if it wasn’t this much.

However, it was too much to be escorted by a dedicated maid, but it didn’t feel bad.

What should I ask Leon first?

Dana wore a light blue indoor dress and headed to the dining hall with Wendy and Lily. Behind Dana, Ahil, who was guarding outside the door earlier, also followed.

She felt the presence of them following, and somehow Dana shrugged her shoulders a little.

On the stairs to the first floor, she was excited to find Leon in the lobby. Unknowingly, she walked down the stairs quickly.

“Leon.”

“Oh, my. Slowly.”

Her skirt was so thick that she felt like she was going to fall.

“Ah…”

When she reached out to hold him, Dana, who was in a hurry, stumbled on the wrong step of the stairs.

As soon as Leon tried to catch Dana, Ahil reflexively hugged Dana’s waist from behind.

Leon’s hands wandered around in the air without achieving their purpose and returned to their position. His eyes soon turned toward Ahil.

“Phew, you almost got in trouble. Miss, are you hurt?”

Perhaps he didn’t see Leon’s eyes, Ahil was looking at Dana continuously, and Dana barely answered, looking at Leon’s eyes.

“Yes, yes. I’m fine. Hey, so.”

Leon stood next to her and hugged her shoulder as if to go up one step, then he naturally pulled the hand off Dana’s waist.

“Argh, Grand Duke, Your Grace?”

It looked natural on the outside, but from Ahil’s point of view, he thought his hands were still close. Surprised by the sudden pain, he saw Leon.

“You’re too… It’s close.”

“What? Because you ordered an escort.”

“Even so, always walk three steps apart.”

“But what if something dangerous happens like just now?”

Ahil, who responded regularly without thinking, was very annoying today, he just needed to say that he understood it and use his words in moderation.

His naïve and upright personality had gained Leon’s trust, but not today. From Leon’s point of view, both this and that would have been annoying if they were men close to Dana.

“Leon, go down now.”

Leon, who was frowning and thinking about something, nodded at Dana’s call and went down the stairs.

Wendy and Lily smiled at each other as they went down caring about Dana’s stride and followed slowly behind. Ahil still looked like he didn’t understand.

There were seats at both ends of the long table. It was such a gap that they could barely talk.

Of course, it was a perfect place for aristocrats to eat alone. There was nothing as disgusting as sitting close to someone they weren’t that close to and eating.

Leon, who pulled Dana’s chair out and sat there, noticed it only today. Even after spending so many days together, the two had never eaten alone in a dining hall.

After spending a lot of time together, he always had them bring food to the room for them to eat together or she usually ate it separately after Leon left.

“Your Grace?”

The servants who were carrying food were surprised and called Leon. Leon roughly took his soup bowl and tableware and left them in a diagonal seat close to Dana.

“Don’t worry about it and eat.”

When Dana opened her eyes wide, Leon glanced at her, started the soup with a spoon, and began swallowing it.
