(Sears’ POV)

“I’m sorry.”

It was funny and bitter to hear about your own child’s progress through a report, just like hearing some information about the subject of a request.

“Thank you for growing up well.”

According to Lira, she said that she was an incredibly gentle and bubbly baby.

However, she also said that my baby developed faster than normal by being healthy and very intelligent.

If I were to tell my wife about the development of our baby, she would definitely smile mischievously with a face that shows that everything will be alright.

I was burning to the core.

To be honest, I wanted to go with my wife.

But, I couldn’t.

With trembling my hands, I covered the child’s feet as it came out of the blanket.

She was so small and soft that it made my heart flutter when I touched it.

“Why are you so lovely…….”

This child and the child to be born.

I’m sure that they will both grow up lovely and that they won’t hurt even if you put them in your eyes.

Watching the situation, Lira carefully opened the door and left, leaving only him and the baby in the room.

“Baby.”

Sears pressed his stiff eyes as he listened to the still, addictive sound.

“Dad is scary.”

Unfortunately, tears flowed. There was no sobbing, but tears dripping down his hands. Until it wet the child’s blanket.

As he stayed by the child’s side for a long time.

( FL’s POV )

“Huh?”

As soon as I opened my eyes, I sucked the side of my mouth vigorously.

Oh, now I’m used to it. I need to graduate from this habit, but I keep looking for it when I’m anxious.

‘But I think I was having a silly dream.’

I think I dream of a man who’s very handsome, with a child-like expression, kept crying right next to me.

What kind of dream is this?

He kept crying, but my hands and feet didn’t move, So I couldn’t soothe him, wipe his face and also I couldn’t whisper “Please be quiet.”

‘As expected, it’s a very unusual dream. But I need to be careful today.’

There’s no harm in being careful.

As I grabbed the pillar of the bed and stood up with strength on my shaky legs, I saw Lira coming in from the door.

And also the other two maids came inside my room.

I blinked to say hello to them.

Hello, Lira.

“You’re up early, miss.”

I want to smile like a lovely baby, but my lips don’t move like a rock because I was a blunt person in my previous life.

I’m sorry, ladies

But the other two maids didn’t laugh either.

“The weather is very nice today. You’re in a good mood, aren’t you?”

It seems that Lira’s touch, which approaches the curtain like an arrow, is particularly quick and accurate.

‘Ugh!’

But can you give some time to adjust. I frowned at the blinding light.

But Lira wasn’t satisfied with that.

“So you’d better work hard today.”

Pardon?

Lira, who moved so fast as she touched and fixed me in a blink of an eye, then hugged me as she lowered me down to the floor.

“Once you grow up you will be walking with me, exercise for you to become healthy. So today, we are exercising indoors. you need to build up those leg strength.”

What leg strength.

“Now, can you walk all the way here, miss?”

“…….”

Seeing her serious face makes me feel like I should follow suit.

But is this really parenting? Do they usually raise a baby like this? Why does it feel like I’m getting a PT?

Seeing Lira’s solemn expression on her face, I was nervous and moved my feet to the sound one by one.

“Good job, now this time this way. One more try, miss.”

I almost fell backwards from time to time because of the insanely heavy head, but I managed to keep my balance.

****

While holding onto the wall and moving, I felt that this was very similar to core exercise that I had worked hard on in my previous life, and I got a little bit of a reality check.

“You did well today, miss.”

Strange.

Why does it feel like I’m being trained as a dog at Lira’s compliment?

As I took a deep breath, I accidentally put my hands on the mirror as I walked forward.

I could see a small palm like a maple leaf mark, as my palm dipped in the mirror.

And I could also see the reflection of myself in the mirror that I had never seen before.

‘So, this is my face now.’

My brow furrowed sharply. In my past life, I had a habit of not looking in the mirror.

Now, I could see my hair coming out quite fuzzy.

Even the bridge of my nose wrinkled like an angry young beast.

I smoothed my hair in the mirror, while being careful not to fall.

‘But Rose’s hair is pink, isn’t it? Then why does my hair look like silver? Will it change later?’

It was just then.

Then another maid talked to the other older woman.

“Did you hear about the Duke of Belfius?”

Huh? Belfius?

My ears suddenly perked up.

That’s the male protagonist’s family.

“Oh, in the capital, if you don’t know that, you’re a spy.”

“I heard they’re all dead.”

Excuse me?

“The people of the Belfius family.”

Oh.

I gasped in surprise and immediately closed my mouth, but then my eyes met Lira, who was looking at me with a questionable face.

I quickly rolled my eyes and made a casual expression, but I can still feel her tenacious gaze.

No, I don’t know anything, so stop looking at me.

‘It seems to be a Belfius affair.’

I knew about it, since it was from the original story.

The male protagonist, Gabriel. In other words, my future fiance, while I became Rosé the female protagonist.

One of the story lines from the original story shows how he became so cold and desperate.

Gabriel later ascended the title of head of the family at the age of only 12.

And the background of the incident was because of Belfius’ blood relatives who were exterminated when he was still young.

‘That’s the Belfius Incident.’

The background behind the brutal killing of the powerful Duke of Belfius is not revealed until the end of the novel, but is revealed in the mouth of Gabriel, who draws the sword of revenge.

‘And the culprit in that case.’

Ugh. I got goosebumps.

I have to meet the real criminal.

‘Living inside a novel is more terrifying than I thought…….’

While reading <Young Miss is Sweet>, I always had more empathy for Rosé, but I still thought that the life of the male lead, Gabriel, was very strange.

There is a saying in this world.

And the characters who were born with sayings will have the appropriate viability.

Both Rosé and Gabriel were born with it.

Among them, Rosé will bloom splendidly.

Thus, Rosé von Hillington was born with the ability of absolute likability that anyone can’t help but love her.

And Gabriel, who was born with the motto “Nothing will break through”, is expected to become the best swordsman in this empire.

However, because of his hardened heart, he lives without knowing the normal feelings that people experience from their family or friends.

Gabriel’s past was explained in a few lines in the novel, but hearing it in person gave me goosebumps.

‘If his whole family were killed overnight……’

What happened then to Gabriel?

The young boy who was left alone had to suffer hardships from those who wanted the title and wealth of the Belfius family, because he was just an innocent young boy.

Until the boy who lost all his family at a young age of 12, as he realizes and uses the power of his words with a cruel degree of certainty.

‘<Young Miss is Sweet> was the only driving force in my dying life, but it is true that Gabriel is cruel.’

The details of how he lived his life of humiliation as a child are not described in detail, but I can’t imagine how terrible it would have been if the first thing he did when he was only 12 years old, was to kill all of his other blood relatives.

‘It seems that somewhere in this world. A young boy who can’t even lift a single sword, lost his parents and close friends.’

I felt guilty for no reason.

I was excited several times a day that I would become Rosé and grow up in a harmonious and happy family that was different from my previous life, but for Gabriel, this moment will be hell.

“Miss.”

“Yes?”

Lira?

“Don’t sit there like that, I’ll just give you a hug.”

If it weren’t for Lira, who hugged me up close, I would have fallen into much deeper thoughts.

My feet were swaying in the air and Lira hugged me dearly with her warm arms.

Didn’t you lift me like a piece of paper, now?

Lira, I haven’t seen your hands yet, but I think your arm strength is very good.

‘Even though I’m a baby, I’m still quite heavy.’

When Lira fiercely told them to leave, the two maids groaned and went outside the room.

Seeing their attitude of not showing any regrets, I felt that none of these maids really cared for me genuinely, which made me depressed for no reason.

“Hey.”

Without realizing it, I grabbed the hem of Lira’s robe, and it was as if Lira’s eyes met mine and seemed to smile a little.

But looking back at her with a blink of an eye, her beautiful face is terribly expressionless.

“Miss.”

“Ooh.”

“Even though the Duke doesn’t come to see you often, this young lady is still very energetic, and I think that it’s wonderful, and I am loving you even more.”

Hey, that’s a lie.

“I, too, enjoy spending more and more time with our little baby.”

Thank you for that.

Before becoming a maid, I was curious about Lira’s story.

When this damn babble in my mouth is over, I’ll grab Lira and ask her.

Where did you come from? Why are you so expressionless? By any chance do you hate me? But how come the words you say are so sweet?

“Look, it is peaceful and quiet. What a great time.”

That’s right.

“You have to enjoy your own privileges. Everyone in this mansion will cherish and love you.”

Really?

“Wow.”

“Yes. Say it like that.”

I’ll have to ask her if she’ll always be by my side later.

You may hate me, but I just wanted to say that I really like you.

“Don’t worry about anything, eat and sleep, all you need to do is be happy and have fun. So don’t make that face.”

“Aaaaah!”

What kind of face did I make?

“It sounds like you’re answering. You’re such a fascinating baby.”

“Boo!”

Lira is a fool.

I pouted my lips for no reason.

“Now shall we take a nap? I’ll fatten up healthy today, and work out tomorrow.”

Lyra’s voice was as cold as ice as she patted me on the back and said that, but somehow I laughed.

Yes, Lyra. I am Rosé

So you’ll be happy, right?

Neither the father, who does not show his face now, nor Gabriel, whom I will meet later, have the confidence to make them as happy as honey like the real Rosé.

‘Still, I hope that when we finally see each other, we can smile at each other…..’
