Reginald strolled up leisurely with a half-smile. “Top floor’s clear now, isn’t it? I suppose I can claim it for the evening.”Once the viewing gallery was tidied up by the attendants, Reginald and Miranda finally made their way up. He pushed open a tall arched window, and a crisp night breeze swept in, cool and bracing. Each leaned casually on one side of the window frame, gazing out at the distant view.The night was deep, with no stars or moon in sight. The sky stretched out like dark velvet soaked in ink—shadowed and mysterious.By day, the capital city bustled with life and noise. But by night, it slumbered like a great beast, stripped of its glamor and noise, laid bare in a rare moment of peace. Even with the laughter and music from the Veil Festival still drifting up from the streets, the night air lent everything a strange, dreamlike stillness, making the quiet feel even deeper.From above, the flickering lamplights below looked like scattered stars across the dark landscape.

Reginald turned around, his expression softening instinctively. The corners of his lips and brows relaxed, as if touched by something gentle.In the instant their eyes met, even this quiet, deserted street seemed to take on a tender hue—filled with a warmth so enchanting it could melt the night.Gazing into her eyes, Reginald spoke a little uneasily.“Did you like the fireworks?”“Absolutely.” Miranda replied, her smile bright.Reginald wasn’t ready for this carefully arranged meeting to end so soon. After a moment's thought, his eyes lit up with an idea. He proposed they go to a building near the edge of the capital—one of the tallest in the city. From its upper floors, the view was unmatched, offering a sweeping panorama of the capital bathed in the brilliance of the Veil Festival.Miranda nodded in agreement.They strolled at a leisurely pace, choosing a quieter path away from the bustling main roads. The surroundings were still, almost serene. It wasn’t until they were halfway the

Reginald stepped forward at an unhurried pace, positioning himself squarely between Miranda and Gavin, blocking the latter’s view of her. A faint, careless smile played at the corners of his lips as he spoke in a voice as smooth as silk:“Who I am is of no consequence. What matters is that she is not someone you can lay claim to. She will never be your betrothed—much less your wife. You’d do well to abandon that foolish dream before it humiliates you.”Gavin’s eyes burned with sharp curiosity as he assessed the man who had appeared out of nowhere. Then he said, calmly but with challenge in his tone, “Words are wind. Let your hands speak for you.”With a sudden burst of movement, Gavin leapt forward like a hawk diving from the sky. His hand swept into a palm strike mid-air, his voice ringing out: “If I’m to be accused of wishful thinking, then prove to me you’ve earned the right to say so!”His attack came fast and precise, the air whistling in its wake.“Child’s play,” Reginald replie

To her surprise, this man—who appeared so wild and unrestrained—had orchestrated such a precise scheme. His planning was meticulous, and his observations frighteningly sharp. Clearly, appearances could be deceiving.Miranda grew inwardly more cautious.“Of course,” Gavin continued, his voice calm but deliberate, “the reason I dared to test things so boldly is simple: even if I had the wrong person, it wouldn’t matter. I’d just keep looking. But your reaction told me—I wasn’t wrong. A carefully designed trap, meant to go unnoticed, only to be recognized at a glance—wouldn’t that surprise anyone? Wouldn’t anyone in my position want to hear the full story, Miss Miranda? Tell me I’m wrong.”He said it with conviction, watching the flicker in her eyes. Her composure froze for just a heartbeat, and Gavin let out a hearty laugh.“There’s no need to be so startled,” he added with amusement. “You may not have revealed your face that day, but your voice—it was clear, young, and calm. And your f

Miranda instinctively took a step back as the stranger moved to block her path, her gaze sharpening with visible anger.Seeing her reaction, the hawk-eyed man suddenly struck his forehead, as if remembering something. “Ah, of course. I’ve gone on and on, and you still don’t know who I am—no wonder you're so wary,” he said with a flash of amusement. “My name is Gavin, of Jasendale. My father is Steven, the very man who was accused of conspiring to arrange a marriage between us in pursuit of your family’s wealth—only to break the engagement in disgrace.”His smile widened, audacious and unrepentant. “I heard some strange rumors from the capital—someone pretending to be my father, and a certain ‘Miss Jenny’ claiming to be my betrothed. So I thought I’d come see for myself… what kind of woman my supposed fiancée might be.”Jasendale. Gavin, son of Steven.Miranda’s heart gave a sudden jolt. She quickly realized that nearly two months had passed since Elder Fitzroy’s envoys were dispatched

After finally making their way out of the dense crowd, the four of them breathed a collective sigh of relief and began strolling leisurely down the lantern-lit avenue.Miranda, having quietly observed Andrian throughout the evening, found herself rather pleased with what she saw. He seemed sincere, well-mannered, and carried himself with the quiet confidence of a man raised among books. More importantly, he and Wensley appeared to get on well. She could already imagine a peaceful, affectionate marriage for the two of them—something she sincerely hoped for Wensley’s future.As they walked, Miranda noticed that Andrian and Wensley had fallen into an animated discussion about poetry. Though Wensley was not especially well-read in that area, she listened attentively, while Andrian spoke with a gentle enthusiasm that made even dry verse come alive. Their easy rapport made Miranda smile.She gradually slowed her pace, letting the pair drift slightly ahead so as not to intrude on their conver
