Duke’s Beautiful Tailor

eside her sits such a beautiful and wonderful Duke of Bronant.
He wasn’t the kind of person Helena could sit with and talk to, regardless of his status or her status.

Just having the opportunity to sit side by side with him like this could be called luck.
Had it not been for the guilt and worry of deceiving the duke, Helena would have felt her heart pounding and spied intently to his face.

Of course, Helena’s chest was still beating hard right now.
It wasn’t because the duke is handsome, but because she was anxious right now.

Helena, who had never lied to anyone before, was very uncomfortable with this situation.
Moreover, the duke kept looking at her.
It wasn’t rude, but it was a very blatant look.

Eventually, when Helena could not stand it any longer and was about to get up to run away, the duke opened his mouth first.

“I’ll have to leave soon.
If I don’t show up for too long, I’ll be very disrespectful to the Countess of Cashford for inviting me.
Would you like to get up as well, Miss Helena?”

“Yes? Ah yes.”

Helena would rather sit here rather than get up with the duke.
but she can’t keep hiding here.
So in the end she nodded her head quietly, thinking about nothing.

The duke stood up first and extended his hand to her.
Helena was a little surprised.
There was no need to treat Helena, who was neither a noble nor a mere commoner, with courtesy.
but the duke’s attitude was just polite.

She felt that since the day she went to see him as a man, he had never treated his subordinates recklessly.

“Thank you.”

It was when Helena stood up while holding the duke’s hand.
With the sound of something being ripped apart, her body faltered.
In a hurry, she got up from her seat and stepped on the long end of her skirt.
