The world around Gillian Bridgerton was paused for a moment when he heard that name. He shifts his gaze to the woman who wear black hooded cape.  When he met with her purple eyes, he just knew it. The loud music start playing again when he raised from his chairs. One of the women behind him asked if there is something happened. But, Gil doesn't answer and keep walking to the mysterious woman. "Gil, what's up?" Hugo's voice sound wary, as if he was anticipating something. Without even take a glance to him, Gil nodded. His brown eyes fixated on that girl, "Hugo, can you leave us alone?" "No. She is a special case." "Then, Young Miss. Let me asked you something." He approached her and start talking in Hangugeo or the official language in South Korean Language with loud voice. "[You must be one of my fans.]" Cecilia gasped

Hugo shouted in disbelief, "What?! Milady, it is dangerous. The Noble Faction won't allow this. Only Imperial's family, nobles or people who directly work with them can learn how to read or write.Besides, the commoner unable to pay it. Teachers salary was so high since they need to completed so many exams or certifications to be one.""I know. Knowledge are considering as holy blessing too. Something the commoner can't allow, even it just to dream. But, there isn't an exact rule to forbid the commoner to know about the crafting skill.To become prosperity, they need money. To have money, they have to work. If they have some special skill, they will have higher possibility to survive in this world.Isn't it breaking your heart to see the innocent orphan children who born in unfortunate condition end up being beggars, prostitute or even worse, became a criminal like thieves?" She put her left palm to t

"Why do I become this stupid?" Max pull his hair in frustration. It is started because of that pudding.To be honest, Max wasn't angry to Cecilia. He's just getting annoyed about a man that can make his Chili smile shyly like a lovesick girl. Something he was unable to do.He was angry to himself because let his feeling enraged and lost of it control. Turned everything into such a mess.Instead of face it, he threw it to that innocent girl. For all day, he tries to found a way to apologize about his rude behavior.Then, when he watched Cecilia cooking in a wide smile, something boiling under his skin. A bad thought crossing his mind and made his insecurity rate getting higher."Those bastard who can taste it. I swear, I will…,"But it stopped when he can hear her voice clearly. When he knows that this pudding is specialized made for him, Max's surprised. He i

"Oh, my! This roasted lamb is so delicious! So chewy, but you can taste the juiciness with a hint of smoky sensation. This is so perfect!" Cecilia said after she ate her fourth meat skewer. "Here, have this too." Max give her a slice of apple pie. They are on the Holk City Square where the harvest festival being held. The crowds aren't reducing even it almost midnight. Everybody have a good time, including Cecilia and Max, who were sitting on the long wooden bench to eat their foods. Cecilia's passion about food was never failed to entertain him. For Max, Cecilia always look so beautiful. But her charisma seems raised rapidly when she's enjoying delicious food. Or cooking some foods. "Nope, the taste of dessert can ruin my taste bud. Better to safe it for the last. Oh! Wait! Where is my manner? I should thank you for the treat. Thank you so much, Max!"

"What? Why?" Kaleela look confused. So does Max."Well, maybe because I'm lacking appeal and--," Then Cecilia stooped her word after realize that she is not Ji Eun. "A-ah, forget it!"Then some realization struck in Kaleela's head, "Wait, I heard you were stepped back from the election. So, were you doing that because, perhaps, rejected by the Crown Prince?"Max almost got a heart attack when heard that question. For him, Cecilia and the crown prince is an impossible combination. A goddess and an insect can't be together, right?When Cecilia want to oppose it, a memory from the past come to her mind.She remembered that the real Cecilia, indeed confessed her feeling to the Crown Prince when he came at her fourteenth birthday. He was nineteen back then. He said that she was too young for him.Of course she was unable to accept that. Using her family's power, she will
