"No matter what, that cravat just didn't seem right."
Romeo, who had suddenly approached, deftly untied the cravat around Lellia's neck and tossed it aside carelessly.
In Romeo's hand was a cravat he had grabbed when entering the dressing room earlier.
He tied a cravat with an ornate pattern around Lellia's neck. His hands were certainly more skilled than the clumsy Lellia's.
Lellia watched his movements carefully. So that she wouldn't struggle and could tie it well tomorrow morning.
At that moment, suddenly Lellia raised her gaze to look at Romeo's face, then quickly lowered it.
"……."
Being this close, something felt strange.
Romeo, just like when he was young, still had fair skin and beautiful eyes.
But perhaps because he had grown so much? Suddenly he felt somewhat unfamiliar.
When she lowered her head, her attention went somewhere else this time.
Now that she thought about it, a very pleasant scent was coming from Romeo. A scent that was like flowers yet also refreshing.
When she unconsciously sniffed, Romeo's expression wrinkled.
"What are you doing?"
"I'm sorry…."
Romeo grumbled annoyingly but still perfectly tied the new cravat around Lellia's neck.
Seeing her appearance in the mirror, Lellia's expression brightened.
She looked much more vibrant just from changing the cravat. At least now she didn't think she would look like Romeo's servant.
"Thank you."
When Lellia expressed her gratitude, Romeo left the dressing room as if he barely heard her.
The clerks who had gathered and were whispering immediately straightened their posture and bowed.
Lellia, who followed out after, handed the measuring tape she was holding to a clerk.
"The purchased garments will be altered and delivered to your residence by tomorrow. Where should we deliver them…."
The clerk spoke carefully to Romeo. Romeo, as if what he had chosen earlier wasn't enough, was now looking at hats.
Romeo instructed them to package several hats together and said,
"To the Imperial Detached Palace. If you say it's for Prince Romeo, the servants will take care of it."
"……!"
At those words, the clerk's eyes went wide like a startled rabbit.
