“It was nothing. Whether you agree or not, that’s how I will see it.”

She loved Ansel, the grandson of the Earl of Huntington, a summer guest at Longfield.

They had been childhood friends, but drifted apart due to their difference in status. Yet, she kept him in her heart until he became the fiancé of her only sister.

Eloise calmly released Ansel’s hand. Then, turning her gaze to the distant night street she had to walk, she answered. Though tears were streaming down her face, she put strength into each word so as not to appear any weaker than this…….

“As if nothing happened. As if we could forget by closing our eyes. Let’s live as if we never loved each other.”
“……”
“You can do that.”

With those words, she turned and left. She had nothing more to say, and she desperately hoped with every trembling step that he wouldn’t hold her back.

Why did I come to love you? After the wedding, when I see my sister standing beside you as your wife, will I really be able to accept everything then?

It was a night that felt as if her life had shattered into pieces. The days when she believed in love seemed so far away.
