"Ah, I'm sorry. I unconsciously, I'll stop now...I'm not thinking of robbing you, I mean I wasn't trying to borrow money and run away. Really."

I apologized urgently, but it seemed Lucian had already taken the hit.

He made a troubled face, bit his lips, and uttered a word.

"Do you always borrow money this way?"

This man frames a virtuous aristocratic lady to a delinquent.

"Of course not. This is my first time borrowing money."

He breathed out in relief at my firm answer.

Then he spoke as if warning a young child of danger.

"If you need money urgently, please let me know. You should never borrow from someone else like this."

I'm not such a shameless person.

I tried to answer back like that, but his eyes were so serious that I nodded obediently.

After a while, there were 500 sparkling gold coins right in front of me.

"You won't ask me what I'll be needing the money for?"

Lucian answered me with his eyes closed.

".....Isn't it the lady's hobby to buy clothes to dress up people and make them fashionable?"

"Oh, how did you know?"

"You said it was the greatest pleasure of a Lady."

I was a little touched.

"That's right. I'm glad you remembered that."

I laughed in a good mood, but unfortunately, he had no reaction at all.

His expressionless face even looked somewhat unpleasant.

Did you have regrets after lending the money? However, as long as the money has been transferred to me, these babies are mine.

I quickly put the gold coins in my bag before he changed his mind.

With this amount of money, Estelle can dress prettily enough to flatten the haughty noses of those aristocrats.

The finest dresses were too pricey, but a decent dress would be enough.

After all, Estelle was a woman who shines with her presence alone.

'Now the problem is how to dress her up.'

Estelle had the stubbornness of a heroine, which was more than the stubbornness that a Choi possessed. (T/N: There is a stereotype in Korea. Chois are known for being stubborn way back in the days.)

Like the rolling romance of a heroine, she dared to take a difficult path.

'If I ask her to go to the banquet in this dress right now, she won't listen to me.'

Even if it was a banquet held in the Imperial City, she always wore old dresses.

It was because of the thought that she shouldn't wear luxurious dresses as a saint who cares for the poor.

She was so stubborn that it was only near the end of the story did she wear a dress.

'And that was only because the Crown Prince, who became a dog for the heroine, wished to see her in it just once.'

Not to mention, I was the supporting character with the role of the villain who had no contact with her.

She's not going to listen to me.
