The shack and dirty house in the middle of the forest was built with trees and used grass and leaves as a roof. Inside, the hoarse man's voice continued to let out unearthly curses, accompanied by the horrible sound of whips. “You're useless! This bastard! I asked you to serve the guests, not asked you to hit them! I have warned you many times already. You cost me a lot of money again. Shit! You pissed me off and asked for it! ” The thin and small figure curled up tightly, shivering and receiving each cruel whip lashing down. The dirty and ragged old dress couldn’t cover the pale skin bleeding out from the new wounds that stacked up against the old. No matter how much the whip struck her down, that poor girl still didn’t let a groan of pain, a scream or a beg for forgiveness come out of her mouth. She just shivered from the pain that was constantly torturing her body. After about a hundred times of hitting, kicking, and cursing, it seems to have calmed down a bit. The skinny man

Soon after, about two more men who cut down the bushes in the way also appeared. They reverently worship.“We’re late, please forgive us prin-”Before he could finish speaking, the mysterious face-masked man waved his hand and said:“Quickly tie up this pig and take it to the horse.”The other two nodded to move forward, only to realize that there was something black hiding behind the tree. They opened their eyes to look, immediately drew their swords and were stopped again.“Don't mind him, we'll come back home soon. I’m tired.”They hesitated to withdraw their swords, hearing orders to quickly cut down a small tree and use it as a burden to carry the big wild boar back.When the three of them were about to leave, the masked man turned his head to check, ‘that man’ was also following him slowly.Does it look like ‘he’ wants to get out of this forest?There was no reason at that time, but he automatically slowed down to lead the way. It seems to show pity for the person who is struggl

The Rothnor mansion seemed to shine in an area when dawn shone on the multicolored glass windows and bright white walls. This structure was built in the Baroque* style, which was popular for the design of churches and monumental theaters. The characteristic of Baroque architecture was that it showed off the strength and power of the owner of the building. The image of the mansion made a strong impression with its brilliance and strong feelings due to the details, colors, and light when facing and enjoying it. From the outside gate to along the paths in the courtyard of the mansion, there were trees and flowers, enough to know that the owner of this place loved nature very much. Prominent in the middle of the garden was a transparent greenhouse with lots of flowers, dahlias, and an extremely eye-catching small aquarium.Gentle rays of sunlight penetrated the thin white curtain. The small figure was still curled up in a warm, thick blanket, lying on the large bed like a princess. The l

Alice had just sat down in front of the mirror when a few other maids also brought out a shelf full of elegant dresses and a few beautiful low-heeled shoes and placed them in front of her, waiting for her to choose. “Miss Alice, today is the day you have an appointment to visit Prince Nelson Spence's racecourse. How would you like to be dressed?” Alice looked at the beautiful dresses in front of her eyes, gradually remembering the events that were about to happen and would happen in the future. She needed to quickly memorize all of that so that she could devise a perfect revenge plan. Nelson Spence - the second prince of the royal family of Spence - was currently her fiancé. The two of them met at the ‘Rose’ party organized by the queen when Alice was 16 years old. At that time, Alice - the daughter of the only Marquise of the Rothnor family - was compared to a living doll with a beautiful appearance that made others admire. But Alice's temperament at that time was very arrogant a

Sitting in the carriage, Alice silently looked out. The path she went back and forth a hundred times was still boring. But now, with the mentality of a returnee, Alice felt compelled to cherish every branch and bush. Although she hated to be near her enemies in her previous life, it wouldn't be a bad idea if she took this opportunity to approach and destroy all their plans step by step. The girl in the blue dress from beginning to end stared at Alice. Her pale blue eyes glided from head to toe in silent assessment. When Alice turned her head to meet her obvious gaze, Katherine shyly averted her gaze, pretending to look the other way. “What is your relationship with the Earl Sirent Weaver?” Katherine sweated. Alice's coldness and frankness worried her. “I… am a distant relative of the Earl. Due to difficulties, he took me to his mansion for a while.” His mansion? “Ha ha ha...” Alice laughed twice derisively. How stupid? What made her so confident? “If it's just a distant relati
