Duke's Beautiful Tailor

Chapter 38

The way it went, Jerome would be suspicious. But she didn’t have the courage to tell the truth.

“Then the Duke certainly noticed and came to visit.”

Jerome said worriedly. Fortunately for Helena, Jerome seemed to be most serious about her being caught by the duke.

In fact, Jerome interpreted the duke’s silent request to Helena as an act of pressure.

“Huh. He told me to come back tomorrow in a different appearance. I think he was telling me to come like Helena Stud.”

“What is he thinking?”

“I really want to know that.”

Helena sighed. She really wanted to know the duke’s true intentions. Why did he suddenly kiss her hand?

And Helena had to think about her own mind. The moment the Duke kissed, Helena felt her soul seized. The emotions she felt at that time and the heat that surged in her body were the first things she had ever experienced in her life.

Her heart was still beating faster than usual. Helena unconsciously stroked the back of her right hand with her left.

Although Helena was relatively bright with the rumors of the nobles, she had never heard of the Duke of Bronant liking women. He haunts many women.

If they were at a high school, it would be enough to think that the duke was temporarily harassing her. It wasn’t pleasant, but it was easier to understand.

However, the Duke of Bronant was notorious for not showing his face well in the social world, let alone escorting a woman. Even to Helena, the Duke of Bronant was not an easily accessible person. It seemed quite tricky.

But that person just kissed her hand without saying a word. It’s also been quite a long time…

‘I’m really interested in you.’

Common sense wouldn’t kiss a woman it didn’t like.

Helena looked down at her outfit. Even the noble girls in gorgeous dresses and beautifully decorated did not attract the attention of the duke, but it was hard to believe that her attire was in his eyes.

‘Is it because the Duke’s taste is special?’

She thought this might be a little more convincing if it was the case. But if it were a person with an unusual taste, they would have come out as is. The social circle of the aristocrats is a place where a dream can be made with just one meaningful glance.

No matter how much she thought about it, she couldn’t figure out why the duke had kissed her.

‘Should I also speak to Jerome?’ Helena thought for a long time.

Jerome.

He is a man rich in experience and wisdom, so he probably knows what that sudden kiss meant. He could teach her how to deal with it wisely.

Helena tried to confide in Jerome, but she couldn’t say why. She had never hidden anything from Jerome before, but this time she didn’t flinch.

“The Duke wasn’t angry, so he’ll probably be fine.”

Jerome, who felt sorry for Helena’s silence for a long time, opened his mouth like that. He thought that Helena had heard an earful of the duke’s harsh accusations, but couldn’t bear to tell him about it instead.
