“I will return this to you next time we meet.”
Finishing her words, she grabbed the hem of her dress and began to move quickly with her steps.
He was tall and of good physique, and if he tried to catch him, that would have been enough, but he didn’t dare to catch Rosalind. Even though it was somewhat rude, she didn’t hold back.
Maybe, it was because she was looking forward to the ‘next’ meeting she said.
Her heart was pounding as if she had run far away.
It was the beginning of her cruel first love.
“…Is this love??”
From that day on, that face has not been forgotten.
His face kept glimmering like a person who had even suffered from morbidity, and that was the only time he remembered. His cheeks kept reddening and he even fanned his hands for nothing.
She interrogated the protagonist of the mask, like the prince in a story, who sought the owner of her glass slipper to see him again, to confirm her own feelings.
Although it was not easy for her to find him as she was a masquerade. When Rosalind thought that she only had time to pity her and that she might have to give up, she found out that Rosalind was the owner of the mask, Kyle of the Spencer family.
It was a prom she attended at the insistence of her father. He was just annoyed at the news that the son of the Duke, who had been said to not appear often, showed his face after a long time, though when she saw that face, her heart seemed to stop as it is.
The son of the Duke must have been the man who had been kind to her that night.
As Rosalind cleared her mind and was about to speak to her, her father hinted that the person she was going to marry was Kyle.
When she found out, she was so happy that she could not sleep because everything seemed like fate. She squeezed her bloated heart in anticipation of telling him everything about her the day she married him.
So, on her first night as her husband and he officially became her husband, she began to carefully bring out the story she had been holding in her heart.
“…In fact, I’ve seen you before, but I don’t know if you’ll remember it.”
However, at Rosalind’s words, he only sneered openly.
“Well. I can’t remember, and I’m not curious about it.”
“A long time ago in the party garden… I saw you…”
“Are there any noble women who don’t go to parties??”
She couldn’t keep up with his words in a cool, sarcastic tone.
“I have no idea what kind of relationship they had before. Even if I knew it, it wouldn’t change.”
Oh…
She dropped her head without her pulse.
Rosalind didn’t know what to do.
The gentleman that night had long since disappeared…
She couldn’t understand why a man who was so friendly suddenly behaved so coldly, though she didn’t even dare to ask why. It had been quite some time since then, and it had been heavy enough to worry that he didn’t remember herself or what if he was the only one who made that night special.
She vowed to talk later when they became closer and became better friends, but there was no sign of any change in the relationship.
After more than a year, he still hated her, and as time went on Rosalind became less and less confident to speak.
In fact, more than anything else, it seemed that it would be too much of a pain if he denied even the memories of that time…
Wasn’t he the one who said, “Even if I knew it, it wouldn’t change??”
If Kyle had cruelly trampled on even the memories of that day with his hatred for him, it would have been very difficult to stand by his side.
The moonlit night then was the only kindness he had bestowed upon her.
A glimmer of hope she could hold on to…
Even without that, she knew it would be difficult, so maybe he instinctively sacrificed himself.
Rosalind knew best myself that she needed a spark of hope to stay by his side.
…***************…
“…Why were you being so kind to me??”
Rosalind looked at the mask and murmured a little.
“He was so kind to a woman he didn’t even know who she was.”
The woman who couldn’t dance well, and stutters would probably be better than her, his wife…
She smiled pitifully.
“…I’m going to go get a diagnosis.”
She gently touched her flat stomach. Rosalind remembered the doctor’s words that she was unable to carry a child.
When he took time out of his work to go see Olivia, she feared that she may be infertile and went to see the doctor alone.
Still, she thought she’d rather spend time this way than be alone with her jealousy. Since he wasn’t at home and Olivia wasn’t there, it was the perfect time for her to go secretly to the doctor.
What if the word infertility comes up again?? It was so scary, nevertheless, Rosalind decided to be a little more courageous.
“Isis, I’m going out for a little while. I will go alone. Do not worry about it.”
Uttering so, she struggled to smile at her maid.
