The promised items arrived a few days later. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.The servants were busy moving things to the new duchess’s room.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

The dresses made by Madame Droney were dazzlingly colorful. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.Christa saw it and was at a loss.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

It was really pretty when she looked at the clothes. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.However, she is worried that if she wears such clothes, she will be buried underneath it. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.It was such an intense and colorful object.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.read only at salmonlatte . com.

“There’s no way this would suit me.”

Hilda and Annette didn’t mind her words at all.

“You’ll look great in it!”

“So pretty!”

Then, they huddled around her, dressed her up, and decorated her with ornaments.

Before marriage, it was customary for the guardians or servants from their parents’ family to take care of the lady. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.But Christa doesn’t have a maid, let alone her own family. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.Soon Hilda and Annette made a firm decision.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

‘We’ll have to take good care of you, right?’

‘Well, this is the first time the Duke is serious about someone.’

So now, they praised Christa with all their might.

“You look so good in it!”

“Of course, you are very beautiful. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.Once the Duke sees you, he’ll fall in love again”read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

“Well, is that so…….”

Christa thought it was impossible. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.He was pretending to be in love, and their relationship is simply on paper.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

‘Because we’re just in a contract anyway.’

It was customary to wear a corset on top of chemise, but for her, they skipped it.

“We won’t tighten your waist because you have a baby.”

They always put fluffy cushions and fur on the chairs so that Christa wouldn’t feel any discomfort.

“You should also adjust the dress in advance so that it would be comfortable if your stomach swells.”

“If you use the double pleated decorations that are popular these days, you won’t be able to see your belly.”

“My lady is so skinny that your belly wouldn’t be very visible.”

Sometimes when she hears them chatter, it is harder to make eye contact with the maids. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.Because what they expect won’t happen. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.There would be no life in her empty womb.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.read only at salmonlatte . com.

“Once you go to Wishus, you’ll be needing fur. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.It’s cold in the north.”read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

“In this hunting competition, ask the duke to catch a fox. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.You have to make a scarf.”read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

The maids kept her constantly busy, like each singing lark. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.She didn’t like loudness, but somehow this wasn’t bad. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.No, she actually felt very fine.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

After going through the hands of the maids, Christa’s pale cheeks turned red like roses in June, and pearl dust rose under her shadowy eyes. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.They applied perfume on her flaky hair and combed it finely.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

“How can your skin be so beautiful?”

There were countless diamond decorations on her hair, which were twisted with dexterity. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.They were all of the finest jewels produced on the estate of Argonod.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

When she looked in the mirror after she was adorned with accessories and make up, her eyes widened because of the low neckline. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.Her usual plain clothes were generally neat and calm, so it was the first time she wore such revealing clothes.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

“Isn’t this too revealing?”

Christa asked the maids of the house, carefully covering her front. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.Then their eyes become thinner all at once.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

“Oh, this isn’t even considered revealing these days.”

They didn’t tighten her waist with a corset, but they pulled her chest up as much as they could. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.Her alluring cleavage was revealed.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

“But this is…….”

Her protruding ribs were hideous. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.Then she felt a hand wrapped around her neck.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

The smell of grass and musk. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.A familiar scent came into her nose. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.She could immediately recognize who the owner of the hand was.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

“It looks good on you.”

“Ah, the duke.”

She felt a cool, heavy energy around her neck. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.The necklace is jammed. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.Heavy red rubies, polka-shaped pearls, and diamonds were interspersed.read only at salmonlatte . com.

“I need to match your clothes for this hunting festival.”

Then he buried his face in the back of her neck. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.The maids slowly stepped back, blushing at their master’s blatant affection.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

“Do I participate in the competition?”

Ragnar looked up at the remark. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.Christa must not have known the role of a lady in the hunting festival.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

“You should put a ribbon on your husband.”

It was common for knights participating in the hunting festival to decorate the pommel with ribbons embroidered with initials. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.Naturally, it was customary for the ribbon to be given to a brother, fiancé, or a loved one.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

Every time the hunting festival was held, there were even knights participating with the goal of receiving a lot of ribbons. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.Naturally, ribbons flocked to the popular participants.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

“Oh, I see.”

Christa scratched her cheek shyly. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.She was so ignorant of the world.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

“I’ll dedicate this year’s prey to my wife.”

“Annette asked me to tell you to catch a fox earlier…….”

“I can catch you more than a fox. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.What do you need? It’s time for a white deer to be caught.”read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

Christa murmured with a plump face.

“I can catch a fox, too.”

“Then shall I prepare a ribbon?”

“Are you going to embroider your initials yourself?”

“If you want it.”

Somehow, she laughed out loud when she imagined Ragnar with a crumpled up piece of cloth embroidering it.

“Did you just laugh?”

“No.”

“You just laughed.”

“No, I did not.”

“You didn’t?”

“No.”

She didn’t even remember what the scuffle was about in the first place, but a new fight began.

“I wish I could find a silver fox. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.It’s cold in Wishus. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.You’re gonna need a scarf.”read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

Ragnar swept Christa’s empty neck. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.He wanted to get her anything suitable for that silver hair.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

“Then what am I supposed to be doing after handing over the ribbon to you?”

Usually, what Christa has done so far was to stand and wait for someone.

“I’m going to put up a tent for the family. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.You can rest in that tent.”read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

“It is indeed…….”

“It must be boring, but it’s strange for a lady who is officially pregnant to go hunting.”

It is a kind of superstition, but there was a custom that prohibited killing of life while a life is conceived in the belly.

“I see. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.I should get used to my new life now.”read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

“You can go hunting and I can rest in the tent, but then Tatiana will try to kill me.”

Christa laughed again at the joke. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.He was a man who was hard to hate. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.Then Ragnar’s voice fell low.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

“I’m sure the royal family will try something. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.We should be prepared for that. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.There’s no harm in being careful.”read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

Of course, Ragnar was going to assign guards in the tent.

“I’m hopeful that they won’t come and harm you with poison in such an open event. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.No matter what happens, don’t leave the tent alone.”read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

“Yes…”

Christa still got goosebumps when she thought of Elio’s cool green eyes. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.It’s like a melancholy green color attached to the stone wall that became a moss that eats away life.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

A long finger lightly pressed Christa’s forehead.

“Another serious look.”

“Well.”

Christa rubbed her wrinkled brow with her finger. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.This feeling wouldn’t go away easily. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.She still had the illusion that his breath was heating up the back of her neck. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.This sticky displeasure was sure to eat her up for quite some time.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

When the sword is pulled out with a groaning sound, a slimy double-edged dagger appears. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.What was unique was that there were several grooves in the center of the sword.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

“What’s this?”

When Ragnar presses the tip of the sword handle, the space inside opens. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.There was a black plaster in it.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

“One drop of this can put an elephant to sleep. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.Don’t touch it with your bare hands.”read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

It was a form of extreme medicine applied to a sword.

“It’s definitely good insurance.”

As if she liked the way the sword was made, Christa repeatedly touched the handle of the knife and swung it in the air.

“I think you like this more than the necklace.”

“Not at all.”

However, she couldn’t hide her joy of receiving a good weapon easily.

“However, don’t get caught by the maidservant. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.Especially if Tatiana finds out, we’ll get a lot of nagging.”read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

“Will she be mad?”

“You’ll get in trouble. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.It’s scary when Tatiana gets really angry.”read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

Laughter broke out when she thought about what will happen if she gets on the gentle lady’s nerves.

“I’ll hide it well.”

Christa pulled up her skirt and put her legs on the chair. read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.She unties the metal buckle and sets up the belt, but Ragnar shouts urgently.read only at salmonlatte . com. This annoying watermark is not there.

“Wait a minute.”

“Don’t you wear it here?”
