Even before he heard the tip from her, Ober believed that the new owner was not Marianne.
There were so many women in the world who had dark brown hair and green eyes. Of course, there were not many with such clear eyes, but there were still a lot of women with that color mix of hair and eyes.
"You know, there are countless women like her in this vast empire."
"Marquise Chester wanted to check her by herself, so she invited that woman to the tea party. She received a reply today, which said she would love to attend. If you want to check her out yourself, please come to the main reception room tomorrow at noon."
Ober praised her and sent her back.
Until that moment, he imagined an optimistic future desperately. He thought that the emperor, who heard some rumors about getting around in the northern social circles, was playing with a girl after bringing her to the palace.
But that girl was none other than Marianne.
