040 Auntie, how can you do this!

****[René, novel heroine] ****

Among the women making their debut at the palace banquet this year, it seems that there are about 30 people without a fiancé.

Such women gathered to one side in anticipation of the dance with the prince.

I heard that if you wait like this, the prince will invite one by one to dance.

Renee was also with the women.

It was because Baron Mayer’s father put in an application for a dance with royalty.

In the novel, there was only a scene where the prince asked Rene to dance, but now that I think about it, the royal family would not do such an act to a lower nobleman when they were not in love.

Debutants who already had a fiancé or who hadn’t asked to dance with royalty were scattered throughout the banquet hall.

Renee shrugged her shoulders and lowered her head slightly.

The women opened their fans and covered their faces, looking at her and whispering.

“Is that woman over there from the Mayer family…?”

“is it so.”

“Whoops. According to rumors, that lady…”

“Oh, is it really?”

He giggles and laughs in a voice full of ridicule.

They don’t know that Rene is from the slums, but most of them seem to know that he is a commoner.

Also, there seems to be rumors that the daughter of the original baron hanged herself or that she ran away with a man.

I’m not sure which one is true.

The women were whispering a little, but unexpectedly I heard them all.

No, are you deliberately telling René to listen?

Renee’s head went down even further.

It’s not just the debuting women who laugh at her.

Among the noble women from other places, there were people who purposely came all the way to see it.

To that extent, Renee was a spectacle like a monkey in a zoo.

After the father came to the palace together, he left to talk with other men, and Renee was alone in this place.

The whole world seems to be the enemy.

‘furthermore.’

Renee bit her lip.

I can’t stand it because I’m shabby myself.

The dresses of the debuting women are all white.

I don’t know why, but I’ve heard it traditionally.

Renee, like the other women, was wearing a white off-the-shoulder dress.

But it was only that much like the other girls.

Most women used expensive fabrics and lavishly decorated with colorful lace to reveal the prestige of their families.

Even if it’s a white dress, it’s not the same thing.

In addition, other women were decorated with various decorations on their hair and body.

Every time the women moved, the jewels and ornaments attached to their bodies made a clear sound.

Renee, too, thought herself very beautiful and splendid when she first dressed and adorned herself in the mansion.

I even felt like a princess.

She was smiling as she looked in the mirror, thinking that she could make the prince and other sons of nobles fall in love with her beauty.

There is no way you can fall in love simply because you are different from other noble ladies.

It may have been one of the triggers to arouse interest, but if the appearance is ugly or if it does not suit the taste, people do not fall in love like a flame.

He knew it desperately because he had been like that in his previous life.

No matter how much one talks about the nobility of the heart and inner beauty, in the end, people are snobs.

It depends most on appearance.

Thinking that way, when I looked at myself in the mirror, I felt like a fairy wrapped in a white dress wrapped in white roses.

However, the splendor of the other women he saw after arriving at the palace was not that great.

Everyone looked like jeweled peacocks.

On the other hand, there is only a necklace with one small jewel hanging on his body.

The swollen confidence shrank in an instant, and it seemed that there was no one more humble than Rene in this vast palace.

I wonder if the twins I saw once when I was young, riding in a carriage, also tasted such shabbiness.

The Baron Mayer family, who looked the most wonderful in René’s eyes, seemed to be a very poor and insignificant family among nobles.

*

A moment of discomfort passed.

There was a continuous stream of scorn and criticism from all sides.

It wasn’t simply because he was a poor nobleman, but the rumors of the head of the Mayer family and the family itself didn’t seem to be very good.

The story of the girls deliberately approaching and whispering is like that.

A poor, greedy, evil lord who makes the young people hungry because he can’t take care of his snot-sized manor properly, a man who likes women and sows seeds here and there, a man’s family who doesn’t have dignity even after washing his eyes.

Seriously, how did the novel’s heroine come from such a family?

Whispers that the Duke of Weiss had arrived spread among the people as he absentmindedly thought about it and killed time, even though it was his own business.

It’s like a wave that goes from mouth to mouth.

There was a stir among the debuting girls as well.

For some reason, excited voices leaked from the women.

Speaking of Duke Weiss, he would be Oscar’s father, but unlike him, he’s popular.

Maybe it’s because it’s the best family in the country, so women’s attention is focused.

In any case, if the duke came, of course, his son, Oscar, would also be with him.

‘ha.’

Renee let out a small sigh.

My heart sank in melancholy.

A wild white pig.

That’s what Oscar is in the novel.

‘I didn’t want to be in a relationship.’

Oscar says he likes Renee, but treats her violently.

It felt like an elementary school student bullying a girl he likes became an adult and acted more violently.

But he’s the only one who can help right now.

You will have to do something about the prospective fiancé by attracting his attention in moderation.

‘First… I have to make eye contact with Oscar.’

Rene fumbled in his head for the part written in the novel and looked around nervously.

In the novel, Oscar falls in love with Rene the moment their eyes meet, but immediately after that, the prince and Renee start dancing and cannot talk to each other.

‘It would be best to follow the flow of the novel.’

If René did something different, it might be a different flow from the novel.

‘We should make eye contact before the prince comes.’

However, as people slowly flocked to the place where the Duke of Weiss was, Renee could not find Oscar.

It is completely invisible because of the people’s hats and wide dresses.

That said, he couldn’t move and snoop around, so Renee stood there, wandering around and stomping her feet.

Then the servant’s voice rang out loudly.

“His Majesty Richard, Her Highness the 1st Queen, and Her Highness the 2nd Queen Enter!”

A king and two queens enter.

The noisy hall gradually became quiet.

When the attendant announced the prince’s position again, the girls making their debut sent their gazes there with twinkling eyes.

‘That person is Prince Robert.’

Renee put her hands on her chest.

Prince Robert was a handsome man with shiny blond hair.

Indeed, he is the main character of the novel.

Renee’s heart started to beat.

The prince’s gaze suddenly turned this way.

The prince took one look at the women, but no matter how hard Renee looked, their eyes never met.

It also seems to follow the flow of the novel.

Until the dance, the prince pays no attention to Renee.

‘Then I need to hurry up and make eye contact with Oscar.’

It’s a big deal if you make a mistake and don’t receive his love and obsession.

Renée turned around in embarrassment.

Moving to the edge of the debuting girls, somehow looking in the direction of Duke Weiss.

Then a couple of men and women caught my eye.

The man’s face was not visible because his head was slightly turned.

However, the woman naturally looked this way, and her eyes met Renee’s.

It must have been a woman debuting this year.

She was wearing a white dress.

But her dress was not like anyone else in this banquet hall.

The cloth itself seems different.

Layers of floating fabric are stacked and fixed to create a delicate drape, and small gemstones are hung all over the clothes like beads.

Every time the light from the chandelier hit her, her entire body shimmered with light.

How much money went into that dress, an amount that Renee couldn’t even imagine.

The woman also wore large jewels around her neck and ears.

Renee, who did not know much about jewelry, could see that it was extremely expensive.

Besides, women were beautiful in their own way.

She was a pitiful and lovely woman, as if a fairy was born as a human by mistake.

The women around Renee were also looking at her and whispering.

Suddenly, a woman muttered.

“It’s the first lady I’ve ever seen… What’s your relationship with Duke Weiss?”

Duke of Weiss?

Confused, Renee turned her gaze back to the man.

Is that man the Duke of Weiss?

‘But he’s too young.’

He doesn’t have a good face, but he’s not an old man.

At first glance, that wasn’t the only thing.

‘Wasn’t the Duke of Weiss the father of Oscar?’

If so, could the bastard have already become a duke?

I shouldn’t do that, but I was nervous.

It was then that Duke Weiss looked this way.

oh my god.

The moment Renee met the man’s eyes, she took a step forward without realizing it.

Women are beautiful, but men…

The fan slipped from his hand and fell to the floor.

But I didn’t even think to pick it up.

It’s the first time I’ve seen such a pretty man, but it’s not just that.

that eye.

The cold eyes, as if penetrating a person’s heart, seemed to bring out something deep inside the person’s heart.

Someone behind me clattered with a fan and said.

“That lady must be Miss Catherine of the Marquis of Petrie.”

“No way…she’s still old.”

“Isn’t it Marquis Petri’s check? It means not to approach it recklessly.”

“Well… I wouldn’t even think of fighting if it was that beautiful.”

The women sigh and say.

‘Catherine? fiancee? Then, no way… is that man Oscar?’

Nonsense.

In the novel, it was even described as a white pig, but what the hell is that figure?

Besides, the villain Katrin is already appearing in the novel?

Something is strange.

The musicians started playing while Renée was confused.

Soon after, the king finished his short speech and sat down.

Prince Robert is walking this way.

The prince’s face, which I thought was cool just a moment ago, is somehow blurred.

Compared to Oscar, isn’t his face too ordinary?

Renee looked at Oscar once more, but he had already turned his head away.

****[Oscar, the main character] ****

No no, why are you looking at me and approaching me?

I quickly turned my head when I saw Renée take a step.

It’s not good to get close to her.

It would be embarrassing if the compulsion of a novel, such as falling in love when the distance was close, would arise, and I had no intention of experimenting with it.

In addition, there is the problem of Katrin, the villainous daughter.

What if I misunderstood that I was getting close to Renée, and Katrin turned into a villain and turned into a maggapa?

In fact, even now, Katrin’s appearance has become a little strange.

It should be said that her mood, which had been laughing like a spring breeze a while ago, had sharpened, but it seemed as if invisible sparks were shooting out in all directions.

And he’s glaring at Renee with very scary eyes.

It’s the first time I’ve seen something like this.

“Miss Catherine?”

When I called, Katrin flinched as if in surprise, then lowered her head a little.

“Are you okay, Miss Catherine?”

When I asked in a low voice, Catherine nodded slightly.

“Yes, I’m sorry. Because I saw a familiar face… It’s nice to see you.”

Catherine smiled shyly, tilting her head slightly.

“…”

No, that would never have been a welcome face.

Besides, there is no way that Catherine is familiar with Rene.

‘Even casually lying.’

I wouldn’t have raised you like that.

Somehow my mind is agitated.

Should I say it’s the feeling of seeing a child rebel against his parents for the first time, or should I say it’s complicated feelings in front of a daughter who has a secret for the first time.

But today is Catherine’s debut day.

I kept my mouth shut because I didn’t even bother to question Katrin, who was smiling brightly.

Just as the king and queen finished their first dance, the prince went out alone after them.

The first lady the prince chose was the heroine, Rene.

Others also join the dance loop.

I smiled softly and held out my hand to Catherine.

“Miss, would you like to dance a song?”

“You’re welcome, Oscar.”

Katrin smiled as bright as the sun and placed hers in my hand.

I led Catherine into the middle of the hall.

Benno once said.

A woman may have many husbands, but her debut as a socialite comes only once in a lifetime, a very precious day.

A wedding is the most precious day on Earth, but it is different in this world.

When a woman is divorced or bereaved, it is often the case that she joins another family at the behest of the head of the family or her parents.

In severe cases, I heard that they get married four or five times to connect with the family.

It doesn’t matter how old the woman is.

The only thing that matters is the blood the woman has.

As such, it is said that the debut day of a socialite becomes a memory that a woman will cherish for the rest of her life.

My mother also said that the debut day was the most memorable.

My mother had her first dance with her father, the Marquis Hoven, not her fiancé, but it was the brightest day ever…

On that shining day, please let Catherine’s heart and soul be happy.

I led her to the center of the hall and intertwined my fingers instead of letting go.

Pull it straight in and lightly touch your lips.

It’s different from simply kissing the back of the hand as a greeting.

It was a slightly fiancee-like kiss that made her feel a little bit more like an adult.

It’s nothing to me as an adult, but it will feel special enough to Catherine, who is still young.

“Let today become a special memory.”

I whispered softly and put my hand around her waist, causing Katrin’s face to turn red.

After that, Katrin murmured in a very confused voice.

“Auntie! What should I do in this situation? Please give Catherine instructions!”

What are you talking about, Katrin?

It seems that the older a girl gets, the harder it is to understand.
