Chapter 110: 110

How did she know? My face froze from shock. Daisy held my shoulders as her eyes turned eager and said, “Please be confident! You’re the most beautiful girl I’ve ever known!”

Daisy must have weird tastes. It’s either that, or she just wants to make her master feel better. But… It still felt good to hear that.

“T-thanks,” I answered.

“Well… I’m with you now because I like you as a person rather than how you look,” commented Daisy with a smile in response to my awkward answer. She then began brushing my hair. Daisy continued while caressing my hair, “Don’t worry, milady. I’ll protect you at all costs.”

Her words sounded so trustworthy, and I felt my heart warming up. So, I have been stuck in my stupid stubbornness all this time. I can’t live in this world alone. With that, I was able to fortify my trust in my people.

“Marina, what’s up with those flowers?”

Rave began to fuss over a small flower pot I brought when I came to work to bring up my mood. I smiled as I spoke to him, “These are wildflowers from the flowerbed outside.”

At that, Deputy Kass also began to make a fuss, “Oh, why did you bring wildflowers? There are more beautiful flowers out there. I have a lot at home too. Do you want some?”

Just as I was about to refuse his well-intended words, a deep and serious voice interrupted, “You shouldn’t denounce something so easily. It may look like an ordinary flower to some, but to others, it may be the most beautiful flower.”

I was so shocked that I froze in place as I heard Rave speaking so seriously with his dark blue eyes. It was similar to what Kyles had said before.

“That was a wonderful thing to say.”

At someone’s voice, Rave then suddenly wiped his serious expression away and spoke while grinning, “I used to say this a lot at the beau monde. Heh heh, isn’t it impressive? There were a lot of people who took my words and used them too.”

Did Kyles take those from Rave then? Gosh, then those words didn’t mean much. ‘A*sh*le! Even the part I liked about him was a fake mask he borrowed from someone else!’

I didn’t even have the slightest of feelings left for Kyles, and I realized that I didn’t have to consider his past either. After cursing at him in my mind, I turned to my small flowerpot and smiled.

‘It’s fine. I decided to do whatever I want while trusting my people from now on.’ I said this to myself and dove back into the battleground of the policies.

“Secretary Harrant! Have you finished listing the embankment installation site to bring to His Highness?”

I frantically went over the documents to include after Vice Director Raymont had reminded me and answered, “Yes, sir. I’ll get them reviewed one last time and have them signed off.”

I was so busy that I couldn’t even think about other things. Yes, living in the present is a really busy job. That’s why I must do my best so that I don’t regret every moment. Regrets leave scars, but they’ll be covered with new flesh as they heal. I decided to not be afraid of getting hurt anymore and move forward. And in that way, I was finally able to overcome my scarred past.

“Deputy Faularner. Good day.”

“Oh… Secretary Harrant, welcome.”

“I am here to hand you this.”

I often came across Deputy Rosaine, so I spoke casually to her now. She also treated me casually as if she was an old acquaintance.
