Chapter 70

HAPPY READING

Lisa first gave her greetings to the host of the party, the Countess of Jordan.

"Thank you for the invitation, Countess."

"Thank you for coming. It is really an honor to meet the Duchess. Your beauty puts the rumors to shame."

The Countess of Jordan was showing an extremely cautious attitude. From the Duchess, she could feel an aura that was somewhat difficult to approach. It was not the feeling of a young lady who was not yet 20 years old like the Countess had expected.

Lisa responded with a smile. Today as well, Antoine had worked hard from early in the morning. According to Antoine, today's focus was 'elegance' and 'dignity'. As it was her first engagement in social activities as the Duchess and as the one with the highest status, Antoine insisted that she should put pressure on the talkative women.

[Facial expressions are important. You should all kneel before me! That kind of expression.]

Lisa didn't know much she had laughed as she practiced her expression according to Antoine's demand. The color of her garments and makeup were ivory and gold. As Antoine had said, the Lisa in the mirror looked haughty and aloof. It was flashy but the image of heavy gold emphasized the dignified gracefulness.

The tea party took place in the yard which could be assessed from going into the mansion and leaving through the back. To set up the venue, posts were set on the field and a wide awning was placed on them to block the sunlight. It was a fairly large venue and a well-kept garden could be seen at one glance.

In a case like today's, where the number of people were too high to be seated in one place, people would be sat at different tables. There were usually several tables that could seat 5-6 people and the organizer would move from table to table at regular intervals, to talk with the attendees.

Peculiarly, the Countess of Jordan placed a large table that could seat ten people in the middle and the rest of the tables could seat five. The seat of the Duchess was on the table meant for 10 people. Except for the Duchess and the Countess of Jordan, the owners of the other eight seats negotiated under-the-table to be able to seat there today.

The maids busily moved from table to table. The women at tables began to simply introduce themselves to one another. The party venue with dozens of people soon went into a flurry of activity with the voices of people.

"I am Yoonjung Alvin. The Count of Alvin is my husband."

Lisa's eyes shook slightly. It wasn't just because Yoonjung was his past woman. Although she was a little surprised when she discovered Yoonjung, she kept her composure. Lisa was surprised for different reason.

'Alvin? She got married to the Count of Alvin?'

In her dream, Yoonjung was a Marchioness(Marquis' wife). And the noble house of Count Alvin was where Lisa had worked as a maid. While she had worked there, the madam of the House was not Yoonjung.

'It's...different.'

The future had changed.

'Yes. Perhaps it is only natural. I changed my future. The him now would have been unmarried. But I married him. At this time, I would have been in the detached palace.'

Because Lisa married him, her future had stepped in an unpredictable direction. And his future was also the same. It was very possible to influence the future of a person who was even a little bit involved with the two of them.
