Thank You For The Confinement, Grand Duke! - Chapter 63.1

“Wow, it’s really beautiful!”

Even though I wasn’t usually a fan of green, this teal color was absolutely stunning. It was like a pastel tone.

How did they achieve such a color in fabric? The fluttering pink ribbon embellishment, the pure white lace, and the adorable rose embroidery are just so charming. Adding that pink gemstone accessory would make it look perfect.

The ivory dress with lots of frills and lace finished with a lavender ribbon, was also lovely. It had a clean, cute vibe, whereas this one has a bright, cute charm that I really like.

“This was made to match the jewels. Do you like it?”

“Of course! I don’t know much about fashion, but just imagining wearing this makes me feel happy.”

I was sure it would look beautiful on me.

I wondered if Enfrise would like it too? Even though he would say I look pretty no matter what I wear.

‘Actually, I do look pretty in anything!’

…Oh, did I sound a bit arrogant just now? It seemed fine when I was talking about myself and Chaperil separately, but now that I was talking just about myself, it sounded so conceited. Was this why female leads in stories say they weren’t pretty?

“It took a little longer since you wanted to see several at once.”

“Oh, haha. Sorry about that.”

After all, wasn’t it a dream for anyone?

In modern times, where you’d go to a department store and say, “I’ll take everything from here to there.” In a ro-fan setting, it’d be “I’ll take everything you brought.”

I didn’t buy the actual jewels because I couldn’t bring myself to spend the money, but with clothes, since they were made by Tambor, it wouldn’t be too expensive with just the fabric cost!

And the sight in front of me was even more delightful than I imagined.

The dresses lined up on the headless mannequins, made of various fabrics, were dazzling. From those adorned with jewels and embroidery to the ones with flashy frills and shimmering fabric, each one was a pleasure to behold.

And they were all mine.

So, this is why people indulge in luxury. I already have seven dresses I’ve tried on, yet seeing a new one lined up makes me eager to see more.

“With this, all the fittings you brought today are complete. Is everything okay now?”

Tambor’s mischievous smile hinted when I had been panting from taking measurements. I responded with a bright smile and a nod.

“Everything’s fine now. I’ve been working out diligently with Enfrise every day.”

Even this morning.

Enfrise gently woke me up in the early dawn when I had been sleeping in more lately.

— Chaperil, wake up.

But despite being awake, I struggled to get out of bed, clinging to the covers and groaning. Today was no different, so Enfrise, who had been quietly watching me, whispered in my ear with a faint smile.

— If you don’t wake up soon…

What would he do if I didn’t wake up soon?

With a hint of curiosity about what he might say next, I waited as he lightly brushed my hair behind my ear.

— I’ll go by myself.

…Oh, you heartless man!

I opened my eyes and looked at him.

How close he had been standing? As soon as I opened my eyes, I was face to face with his golden eyes.

…Forget what I just said. Wow, I just unconsciously blurted out, “You’re driving me crazy.”

This man, who didn’t even realize how good-looking he was, exudes charisma even in the early morning. His neatly arranged hair and the white shirt buttoned up to perfection. The white skin was visible through the gaps between the shirt buttons as he bent forward.

I found myself mesmerized as he rolled up his sleeves. His arms, white but well-toned with prominent veins, radiated masculinity from the morning.

I couldn’t help but mutter.

— I’m losing my mind.

— What’s the matter?

— I feel like I’m going to die.

At first, my heart felt like it had stopped, but soon, it was pounding as if it was a drum. Was this man capable of causing an explosion equivalent to a nuclear bomb? For now, my cheeks were burning from the early morning because of him.

— Are you okay? Should I call Sir Hallowell?

Ah, wait. Just hold on a moment.

In front of my eyes, the figure seems to come alive.

Crazy.

I ended up unconsciously closing my eyes tightly while thinking about the face I see every day. What if I end up dying from arrhythmia or a heart attack? Since possession was possible, maybe reincarnation was too?

— Chaperil?

— Just stay still for a moment. Enfrise’s presence is the biggest threat to me right now.

— What do you mean…

— Who does that in the morning?! Entices someone like that? Did you deliberately wear a tight shirt?!

— It’s what I always wear… Maybe I’ve gained a bit of weight.

As he spoke, he slightly tugged at the top button of his shirt…

‘No, no. Focus. That isn’t what I meant to say.’
