Let’s just give the painting. As Brad said, he won’t recognize the model.
But what if he finds out?
If the buyer happens to have a good eye and can recognize my face just by the painting, I just need to not run into him. Is there any chance for a teacher of the Vendons barony meeting high-class people?
But what if Baroness Vendons sees the painting?
Oh, since he said he’d keep the model’s identity hidden, why don’t I just go and explain the situation? Will that make up for it?
Will the person who bought a nude painting be so thoughtful?
Evening came while she had such thoughts. In the end, Liv spent the day without doing anything. She asked Brad to let her know immediately if there was any contact or if something happened, but there was no news.
There’s no way he will just let it go like this…
The next day, she couldn’t make time because she went to work at the Vendons barony for Millian’s class. Three days passed, and after having a scuffle with Pommel, who kept pestering her for monthly rent, Coryda’s condition got worse, so she spent another day looking for a doctor.
So four days. The note with the address was in her pocket the whole time, and it had been wrinkled from being opened and folded so many times.
No matter how hard she thought, she couldn’t get the money right away. Liv left the house, recalling the address she had ended up memorizing after looking at it so much. However, her steps led her to the chapel instead of the address.
No one was seen around the chapel today. Liv, who was looking blankly at the chapel, opened the door with all her might.
Inside the chapel was as quiet as ever. She could see only one person praying in the front seat, but she couldn’t afford to care about him. Liv sat quietly in the back instead in the middle, where she usually sat. She wanted her heart, which was tattered in just a few days, to be comforted even a little.
I’ll just pray for a moment and then find the address for real.
With that determination, Liv put her hands together. Her jaw was strained because she clenched her teeth strongly.
When our parents died suddenly in a wagon accident, it was hard as if I were going to die right away, but in the end, I managed to endure it. Even when I became a home tutor for the first time, even when I was insulted in the county, and after that, I endured and dealt with everything well.
For that reason, I’ll be able to move on well again this time. I’m sure there’ll be a way.
All right, let’s go and have a talk. Since he said he would hide my identity, I can just go directly to explain why I broke the deal unilaterally, apologize, and ask for his understanding of the situation. If he takes issue with the cost of the damage, I just need to say that I will pay it back in installments. Let’s fix it so that I don’t get fired from the job I’m doing now.
Click clack.
The thoughts that had been organized one by one in her head were scattered at once. The sound of shoes ringing in the empty chapel was familiar to her ears. Liv’s neatly interlocked eyelashes trembled. Her concentration, which was broken, never returned. Naturally, her focus shifted to the sound of footsteps.
A familiar sound, a sound she had definitely heard somewhere.
Liv opened her eyes as if possessed.
The person, whom she thought was praying in the front seat, suddenly moved and stood covering the statue of God. The light from stained glass poured over him, who was standing idly. The dust in the bright ray of light flew like mysterious smoke, and the platinum hair sparkled with a mysterious light.
Liv, who was able to capture all the scenes at a glance because she sat at the hindmost seat, opened her mouth without realizing it.
He, who was looking up at the statue, looked back as if he had noticed her gaze. Liv bowed her head reflexively as soon as she felt like her eyes were in contact with his.
The distance is far. It’s the foremost and the backmost, so he obviously didn’t recognize me. And there’s no way we made eye contact.
She tried to soothe her mind, but her heart was already picking up the pace. In order to hide the fading complexion, she closed her eyes and put her forehead on her clasped hands.
She heard the sound of shoes. The sound of approaching at regular intervals stopped near her.
The moment she moistened her dried lips with her tongue, she heard a cold voice over her head.
“You don’t have enough manners for a teacher.”
Oh, God. What the hell did I do wrong?
Crying out at the innocent god, Liv slowly opened her eyes. When she put some strength on her trembling lips and looked up, she was met with blue eyes. The one who stood with his hands behind his back and looked down at her with arrogance was undoubtedly the Marquis of Dietrion.
Why did he come here out of all those many chapels? I can’t believe I’ve already run three times into someone who’s hard for others to meet.
“I think four days should have been enough.”
Liv’s eyes were filled with wonder. She thought he would definitely criticize her attitude to pretend not to know, but four days? However, the Marquis of Dietrion didn’t seem to have any intention of explaining a little more.
