Meanwhile, the servant, who finished preparing the refreshments, found the handkerchief on the table.
“I’ll send this to the laundry room.”
Demus, who had been staring at the closed drawing room door, blowing smoke nonchalantly, turned his head.
He didn’t even think about washing it in the first place. He ordered insensitively without giving a glance.
“Throw it away.”
The servant bowed his head and left the room with the handkerchief. The smell of the cheap soap remained where the handkerchief had been and gradually faded away.
Only cigar smoke filled the quiet drawing room. Demus, who was sitting leisurely on the sofa smoking a cigar, reached for the teacup and paused.
He frowned slightly as he saw his long fingers in white gloves. As though he didn’t like it, he rubbed his index finger and thumb together, falling into thought, and raised himself.
Demus, who stood up leaving the tea untouched, strode out of the drawing room.
“Where’s the teacher?”
“She’s signing the contract.”
“Bring her when she’s done.”
He felt nauseated. Unfortunately, there was nothing in this mansion, which had been hastily prepared in a faraway place, to soothe Demus’ sick stomach at the moment. Thus, it couldn’t be helped.
“Tell her to start the job today.”
He was eager to check the effectiveness of the poor model.

The Marquis did not lie.
Everything in the contract offered by the man named the Marquis’ aide was as the Marquis had said. As he had guaranteed, the hourly wage was set very high, and it was not a difficult task she needed to be scared of.
“So, Mr. Adolf, right? I will really get paid this much… just to do this?”
The extra work the Marquis asked Liv to do was very easy. It was just to spend more time with him naked.
They would not do anything else, just stay in the same room. It was written that he would not inflict injury, nor would he cause her life to be in danger.
“Of course, Teacher.”
Liv’s cheeks flushed. She was ashamed of the title “teacher” that came out of the straight face. Was it because she wasn’t there to teach anyone, or was it because she felt like she was criticized for secretly doing this thing while working as a home tutor?
Perhaps the latter.
“I don’t think it is appropriate to call me with the teacher title.”
“Oh, I’m sorry if it offended you. That’s what the Marquis calls you.”
“… Do you know me well?”
“Are you asking me? I’m sorry, I only know as much as I’ve been instructed to, Teach… I mean, Miss Rhodes.”
It was a very vague remark. Liv tried to guess in her own way, but she couldn’t find a suitable speculation.
In the first place, it didn’t occur to her that the Marquis would be interested enough in her to give Adolf an order to investigate her or give any individual order. He would think of her as just someone to do an uncanny… extra work.
Liv’s eyes turned to the contract. No matter how many times she read it, the content did not change.
“Please sign below to finalize the agreement. The salary will be paid in cash on the same day, but if you have any other way you want…”
“I prefer cash, too. But it doesn’t say the contract period.”
“Oh, that.”
Adolf paused for a moment, and then went on calmly.
“It is until the Marquis says he doesn’t need it anymore.”
“… Do I have no choice at all?”
“Do you need a choice?”
In other words, it was also a question of whether there was anything for her to choose. Seeing that Liv, whose complexion had returned to normal for a while, was turning pale again, Adolf quickly continued his explanation.
“It is not my place to judge recklessly, but I think this contract is good enough for you now, Miss Rhodes. Unless there is a problem, the Marquis will continue the contract, and you will easily earn a stable side income. If what bothers you is the Marquis’ change of mind, you don’t have to worry about that either. Even if you work for only one day, we will give you enough compensation money for your hard work.”
There will be no job anywhere to give compensation money for just working a day. Liv’s heart, which had been shaken for a while, became firm again at the thought of money.
She was never in a situation where she could be picky. Liv pulled herself together as she thought of Coryda.
