The maid who lowered her voice agonized for a while.

"Only we will know. There's no way we'll go out and make a rumor. What is it? "

When all the maids urged her, the hesitant woman finally opened her mouth. "She was knocked down by Manny before. I was just about to leave the room, and there was some distance, but she couldn't get up alone until I ran up. Furthermore, she dragged her leg badly even after standing up. I was not sure if she was surprised or what. I was going to give her a massage because I thought it was because her muscles were tight or went to spasms, but suddenly she pushed my hands away. When I looked at her in surprise, she said that her leg muscles were a little twisted as she grew up."

"Oh, my God, are you serious? I thought she sprained her ankle because she dragged her foot a little bit when she walked."

Everyone nodded and agreed as the other maid spoke as if it was surprising news. "She said it wasn't painful, but isn't that too lethal for a woman? I don't know why our princess keeps Miss Phoebe beside her. Does she feel homogeneity because she was sick as a child?"

Jane tilted her head at the maids' words. Apparently, the doctor said that she had been taking painkillers steadily. 'Then, why has she taken the painkillers if she weren't sick? Is there any other reason?'

Jane rose from her seat thinking that she should report that to Lady Anais.

As Amelie looked at the newly arrived fabric and rich materials, she was delighted to welcome Julietta entering the studio and fitting room. "Come on. I'm looking at the lace fabric I ordered before as it arrived."

It was time for Julietta to follow Simone to Tilia Territory after accepting the princess's role. One day she had to stay overnight in a small village whose name she didn't even know. It was a village she just passed by when she went to Bertino. They were originally supposed to rest in the next village, but the journey was longer than she thought, so she was bound up in an unscheduled village.

But the dresses and skirts of the village women were uniquely decorated with lace. So was the ends of the skirt of the maid working at the inn. Julietta had worked as a maid and was surprised that the bottom of the lace, which was pretty but not practical, was on the hem of the maid's skirt. When she asked if it was simply a decoration, the maid gave an unexpected answer: it was due to not enough wear. While working, lace was fine in other parts of the dress, but there were many cases when it was not worn. Since only the bottom of the skirt was worn out, she made some lace to protect both the decoration and the bottom.

The maid's lace was intended to protect the fabric, so it was a bit rough and tough, unlike the usual lace, but if she looked closely into the texture of the pattern or a weave of fabric woven of wing and thread, it was very delicate and beautiful. Therefore, she thought, "What if I used expensive high-quality thread?"

------------------

After she opened a boutique and brought in fabric and accessories, she remembered the village. Julietta decided to sign a contract because she thought it would be a waste to leave their skills alone. So, as soon as the manager adjusted to working in the dressing shop, she sent him to the small town in Bertino.

When the town mayor's wife came to the capital with the manager as a representative of the village, Julietta explained the fabric of the lace that she had thought of. The town mayor's wife said that it was possible to produce, went back to town and sent some samples.

A few months after signing with the village, the finished fabric finally arrived today. Julietta looked together at the lace that Amelie was holding.

"It's definitely different from the laces on the market?"

"It's more delicate, solid, and unique. The texture of Austern's lace is not dense, so if we weave it at this size, it loses its strength and can't hold its shape. It's amazing." Julietta said, looking down at the fabric, which was woven so tall. "I'll have to make an engagement dress with this lace."

"You are making a dress out of this lace?" asked Amelie, who thought that lace was only for the use of a hairband, or a decoration for a sleeve, neck, or dress.

"Yes. I can make it by lining it up and covering it with lace." Julietta drew a wedding dress that she had often seen before and showed it to Amelie.

"I never thought you'd make a dress out of lace." Amelie was greatly impressed after hearing Julietta's explanation.

"But I'm afraid it's impossible because there are so many orders."

After the successful fashion show, the dressing shop was flooded with orders, even during the off-season of the social world. Once Prince Killian's engagement invitation was sent to each noble family, even more orders would be placed.

"I want to make your dress with Sophie. So don't worry."

Amelie and Sophie no longer worked on their own. They were also busy dealing with customers by managing new tailors and sewing workers. But no matter how busy they were, they wanted to make Julietta's dress themselves.

Having understood Amelie's heart, Julietta thanked her and hugged her tightly. "But is Sophie on the second floor?" Julietta asked, as she remembered Sophie had not been seen in the crowded hall and cafe.

"No."

As Amelie's gaze turned toward the annex, Julietta's head moved along.

"Is His Highness here?" Julietta's voice rose by an octave.

Amelie shut up before she said he was coming every day. It was difficult to say, because even the Marquis of Anais was also going in and out of the annex that had become a hideout.

When Julietta put on her hat and gloves, Amelie asked, "Are you just going to go without seeing His Highness?"

"Unlike before, there are so many people in the hall that they've seen me all the way here. I can't stay long."

At Julietta's words, Amelie laughed. "Let's go to the coach house. Just send the wagon back and you can visit the annex."

She was going to say that entering the annex would be seen from the cafe, but Amelie had already opened the door to the studio and she was left alone. She followed Amelie, in the form of the elegant Princess Kiellini. The two passed the cafe and headed for the coach house, sharing only an eye greeting with the people they encountered.

"Oh, my God, what is this?" The road leading to the annex was now blocked by a wall through the road between the coach house and the main house.

"His Highness put in a wall to prevent people from straying to the annex, just in case. Come here."

Julietta followed Amelie into the coach house. The coach house which was narrow in width but long in length, and now divided by a wall, as it was cut off. Twelve carriages were supposed to fit in, but there was only room for eight.

"Only staff carriages of the shop and private ones are allowed in here. The Prince bought a building next door and made it into a guest wagon storage area."

She didn't know who the owner of the shop was anymore. She couldn't believe he had changed her shop like this, as she hadn't been here for a while. Julietta was in an unpleasant mood, and hurried after Amelie who opened the door in the middle of the wall that divided the coach house with her key.

The inside of the wall was a passageway leading to the annex. Amelie locked the door again, and she and Julietta headed for the annex.

Julietta entered through the side door of the annex by using a long passage which connected the annex and the coach house, and could not be seen from the first-floor cafe, the second floor, or the third floor of the main building. She pouted at the familiar scene.

Killian, Oswald, and Valerian were sitting on a small living room couch talking with their heads together. Fortunately, Sophie sat with Sir Albert in the kitchen table chair comfortably, and chatted instead of waiting by the door.
