It took a moment for George to reimage Leticia from his memory. Since it’s already been over a year.

But George didn’t forget that skinny commoner girl. How can he forget the benefactor who saved Michael.

“You mean the red-haired girl in the mountain.”

“…..Leticia.”

“Do you want that girl?”

Michael didn’t answer or make any gestures, but George jumped out of his seat.

It was because the young master’s eyes were more sparkling than ever.

“I understand.”

What could be easier than finding a girl with red hair and a striking appearance of gold eyes in a small town.

The corners of George’s lips rose spontaneously at the thought that he could finally do what the young master wanted.

But things don’t work out the way he thinks.

“Knight, please find our Leticia!”

“As long as you find our daughter, I’ll do anything. So please…..!”

“It’s all my fault. I should die…..”

George looked at the tearful Woods family with a stunned face.

As soon as he said he was looking for ‘Leticia Woods’, the village chief sighed and showed him the house of the Woods family.

The village chief was not surprised so I thought it was strange, but now that I think about it, it seems that these family members often ran to the village chief to find their daughter.

“So, you mean Leticia Woods… left the house?”

“My daughter isn’t like that!”

Mr. Woods shouted with a bluish face.

“I’m sure she was tricked by some jerk!”

“Anyway, kidnapping… murder. It’s not something like that, is it?”

George confirmed once again.

If Leticia Woods was involved in the crime, it would be very troublesome.

“Knight, how could you say that….”

Mrs. Woods’ lips were trembling.

“How did she disappear?”

“My daughter was really nice. She said she’d definitely come home on her first holiday. That was two weeks ago.”

Mrs. Woods began to shed tears again.

“I heard she got on the wagon to Tatum, so where the hell would she be? I don’t know if I’ve done anything bad……”

Tatum was the closest city to this rural town.

The couple cried out that they had spent all the money they had saved up and searched for their daughter at Tatum, but still could not find their daughter anywhere.

It was a touching story, but George frowned with disapproval.

Apparently, the girl I saw in the mountains was too young to work as a maid, no matter how many years had passed.

However, children in these rural villages often do not eat well and cannot attend church properly

Leticia Woods was likely to be such a case.

“How old is your daughter?”

“She is fourteen years old, Knight.”

“Fourteen years old…..”

George groaned. Wasn’t she too young to work as a maid in someone else’s house.

However, it was not surprising to think that some poor people often sell their younger daughters to others.

Anyway, it could have been as easy as the fact that the couple didn’t love their daughter as much as they said.

George came to a conclusion.

‘She ran away.’

It is a common story of a country girl who could not stand the hard work and ran away as soon as she received her first salary.

The reason why these parents searched for Leticia Woods with all their might was not only because of their love for their children.

George shook his head as if he had nothing more to hear and left the Woods’ house.

Trying to ignore the ugly people clinging and crying behind his back.

The important thing was Leticia Woods’ whereabouts, and the obvious snobs didn’t matter.

‘Where did she go.’

Anyway, she was a young girl who could only do maid work.

The couple must have visited all the mansions in the city of Tatum, so it was highly likely that the girl moved to another city.

‘Capital city of the empire.’

George notices right away.

A place was chosen by an uneducated country girl to run away from her parents.

He could not think of anything other than the capital of the empire, Tiache.

George sighed.

Finding Leticia Woods in Tiache seemed like finding a needle in a haystack.

Men, women, and children from all over the empire flocked to Tiache to find work, and mansions looking for maids were also spread out in Tiache.

To find Leticia Woods, he will have to spend quite a bit of effort unless she has a bounty around her neck.

But he couldn’t find her in such a noticeable way to others.

‘I’ll have to go through all the human resources offices in the capital.’

Leticia Woods ran away without a letter of recommendation, so of course, she had no choice but to find a job through the human resources office.

George recalled Michael’s bright face when he first saw him.

The young master, who George has sworn to serve with his life, revealed what he wanted for the first time in his life.

‘I’ll never let you down.’

***

“It is delicious!”

Leticia sighed happily.

A month has passed since I joined the kitchen, and the disappointment of not being able to touch the kitchen knife and bread dough once has disappeared like snow melting upon seeing delicious food served in front of her.

For the past month, Leticia has cleaned up the cooking ingredients from the morning and cleaned the mess kitchen after cooking. The pile of dishes was a bonus.

But there was always delicious food waiting for me when I went crazy with hard work.

All the leftovers were in her possession because Leticia had to stay until the very end with Ruth.

“Do you want more?”

“Yes.”

Leticia looked at the empty plate with a regretful face. Ruth smirked.

“I’ll give you everything that’s left. It’s already late, so eat it for breakfast. But let me ask you one thing. Why did you want to come to the kitchen?”

“I want to learn how to cook.”

It wasn’t something to hide, so Leticia answered right away.

“As expected.”

Ruth looked as if she had expected it.

“Then, you must have been very disappointed right?”

“…..A little.”

“Don’t lie to me.”

“I was very disappointed at first, but the food I could eat here was so delicious that I lost my mind.”

“Hahahaha!”

Leticia stared blankly at Ruth, who burst into laughter.

“What, what did I do wrong?”

“Wait.”

Ruth continued, wiping away tears from her eyes.

“Is it that good?”

“To the point of being happy.” 

Ruth thought for a moment, then opened her mouth with a determined look on her face.

“Starting from tomorrow you don’t have to wash the dishes.”

“Yes?”

“First, onions…. No, peel the potatoes first. I’ll teach you how to cook.”

“Chef!”

Leticia paused as she tried to hug Ruth. Ruth smirked and tapped Leticia on the shoulder.

“In return, you have to work hard.”

“Well, from the moment I come here I promise I’ll do my best 10 times more than ever.”

“Yeah, that’s the attitude.”

The very next day, Leticia began to skillfully shred the piles of potato skins.

The maid who was originally cleaning the vegetables was there, but for some reason with a happy expression on her face, she insisted that she would be happy to wash the vegetables.

Soon Leticia could see why. Potatoes, carrots, and beets could be trimmed all day. But onions, garlic, and green onions were different.

Because of the spicy energy, Leticia’s eyes never dried up.

But Leticia was happy. It was a chance for her to handle vegetables she’d never seen before.

It’s been a week since she was in charge of vegetable trimming.

It was when everyone gathered to share delicious food and chatted after finishing our lunch.

An errand boy ran into the kitchen with a red face.

“What’s going on?”

“Ch, Chef.”

The errand boy trembled and barely started talking.

“Ba, Baroness gave an order to prepare a more fancy dinner than ever….”

Ruth frowned.

“Did you see a valuable guest coming?”

“His, His Highness the Crown Prince’s close aide, Lord George is coming!”

Clink!

The plate slipped from Leticua’s hand and fell to the floor.

“I’m sorry!”

Leticia apologized repeatedly and removed the broken pieces of the plate.

All the other maids concentrated on the conversation between Ruth and the errand boy with their eyes wide open, but nothing entered Leticia’s ears.

Lord George.

Leticia knew that name.

As a close aide to Michael Sonnette Debrabdt, the most ruthless tyrant in imperial history.

Emperor Michael was such a brutal tyrant that even the heroine of the novel, who was only a low-ranking official, was terrified by the summary of execution.

The person who managed to control him the most was Lord George.

Their relationship was a bit complicated. Emperor Michael was a descendant of an imperial family that couldn’t even come close to the throne if it was normal, and the Emperor had a deficit of seven.

However, when the first to third princes were assassinated due to a fierce battle for the throne, the emperor came up with a strange solution.

It is to bring a 10-year-old descendant of an imperial family without parents as the Crown Prince.

Naturally, the Emperor had no intention of making the current crown prince as the emperor at all.

Michael Sonnette Debrandt’s role was a marionette. 

Until the real heir chosen by the Emperor is safely grown into an adult, he simply has to sit in the Crown Prince’s seat, which is precarious just for his existence.

Only Lord George was loyal to the marionette Crown Prince. The Crown Prince also followed Lord George like he was his father.

Ironically, the Emperor’s son suddenly died just before the coming of age ceremony of his successor, and Michael Sonnette Debrandt became the new emperor of the empire.

As soon as Emperor Michael ascended to the throne, he caused a bloody wind in the entire empire.

He trusted no one and only trusted Lord George, who had protected him from an early age.

Even the enemy, who was about to be brutally executed, has been shown mercy by keeping him imprisoned in a dungeon for the rest of his life at the words of Lord George.

However, when Lord George was assassinated at the age of fifty, no one dared to stop the rampaging Emperor Michael.

Until one day, Emperor Michael was assassinated.

‘Come to think of it, that noble boy’s name was also Michael……?’
