    <span data-contrast="auto">It was nighttime, and Liselotte was reading a book before going to sleep.<span datap-props="{"201341983":0,"335551550":6,"335551620":6,"335559739":160,"335559740":259}">

    <span data-contrast="auto">?The book in her hands was a quietly trending story among the women in the capital and a few men.<span datap-props="{"201341983":0,"335551550":6,"335551620":6,"335559739":160,"335559740":259}">


    <span data-contrast="auto">Liselotte wasn’t much of a reader, but Marie, one of the maids, had delivered it with excitement, saying, “I found something amazing!”<span datap-props="{"201341983":0,"335551550":6,"335551620":6,"335559739":160,"335559740":259}">


    <span data-contrast="auto">Since Marie, who enjoyed tales and dramas, was so enthusiastic about it, Liselotte decided to give it a read. However,<span datap-props="{"201341983":0,"335551550":6,"335551620":6,"335559739":160,"335559740":259}">

    <span data-contrast="auto">She had read it to see what it was about, but it was precisely as the title indicated.<span datap-props="{"201341983":0,"335551550":6,"335551620":6,"335559739":160,"335559740":259}">


    <span data-contrast="auto">She didn’t know who was writing such a book, but there were several aspects of it that she found displeasing.<span datap-props="{"201341983":0,"335551550":6,"335551620":6,"335559739":160,"335559740":259}">


    <span data-contrast="auto">The most significant was that it depicted Liselotte letting Gunther take Sam away from her, and instead of objecting, she blessed their rtionship.<span datap-props="{"201341983":0,"335551550":6,"335551620":6,"335559739":160,"335559740":259}">

    <span data-contrast="auto">Thinking that such a book was quietly popr in the capital gave her a headache.<span datap-props="{"201341983":0,"335551550":6,"335551620":6,"335559739":160,"335559740":259}">

    <span data-contrast="auto">Her father’s eyes widened, and he started to imagine something improper.<span datap-props="{"201341983":0,"335551550":6,"335551620":6,"335559739":160,"335559740":259}">

    <span data-contrast="auto">“I-I see. I’m a little relieved then.”<span datap-props="{"201341983":0,"335551550":6,"335551620":6,"335559739":160,"335559740":259}">


    <span data-contrast="auto">Liselotte tilted her head, wondering why her father hade to visit.<span datap-props="{"201341983":0,"335551550":6,"335551620":6,"335559739":160,"335559740":259}">


    <span data-contrast="auto">She couldn’t help but think that if he had visited her room just to discuss such an indecent topic, she would need to report it to her mother, even though she doubted it.<span datap-props="{"201341983":0,"335551550":6,"335551620":6,"335559739":160,"335559740":259}">

    <span data-contrast="auto">Her father looked surprised at Liselotte’s understanding.<span datap-props="{"201341983":0,"335551550":6,"335551620":6,"335559739":160,"335559740":259}">

    <span data-contrast="auto">“Well, she’s my sister, so it’s easy to tell. Alicia has feelings for Sam, doesn’t she?”<span datap-props="{"201341983":0,"335551550":6,"335551620":6,"335559739":160,"335559740":259}">

    <span data-contrast="auto">“Uh, yes, that’s the case. You see, Jim is the type who doesn’t listen much and tends to talk about himself incessantly.”<span datap-props="{"201341983":0,"335551550":6,"335551620":6,"335559739":160,"335559740":259}">

    <span data-contrast="auto">“That’s right. In contrast, Sam is a good listener, and it seems like they truly enjoy their time together.

    <span data-contrast="auto">Perhaps it was because she couldmunicate with the dragons mentioned in the stories, but Liselotte always knew Sam was by her side when she saw her sister’s radiant smile.<span datap-props="{"201341983":0,"335551550":6,"335551620":6,"335559739":160,"335559740":259}">
